Automatic temperature
adjustment
This adjustment controls the correct temperature
for coffee, water, and steam. Coffee brewing is
automatically interrupted should the water tem-
perature be too high (safety thermostat and
overheating safety device activated).
Antigravel device
Even selected coffees may contain some impu-
rities. The coffee grinder is fitted with an antigravel
device to avoid any damage. Should gravel
end up into the coffee grinder, you will hear a
strong and characteristic noise. Stop the ma-
chine immediately otherwise the protection sys-
tem will stop the coffee grinder after approx. 20
seconds.

grounds container / Coffee dispens-
ing unit / coffee machine
33
In order to keep the service area and the central
unit (22) clean, it is recommended to empty the
coffee grounds container (1) every day.
The water tank (11), drip tray (2), cup holder
grill (3), and coffee grounds container should
be washed periodically, using a non-abrasive
solvent and drying them carefully.
34
The coffee dispenser (6) may be removed for
cleaning operations. Unloose the screws and
rinse the dispensing tubes thoroughly with hot
water.
From time to time, clean the machine casing
with a damp cloth and dry it.
Clean the pre-ground coffee container (14) with
the aid of the brush supplied whenever neces-
sary.
Central unit
Clean the central unit (22) whenever the coffee
bean container has been re-filled, or at least
once or twice a week.
Switch off the machine by pressing the main
switch (4) and open the service door (19).
Remove the coffee grounds container (1).

Remove the central unit (22) by holding the
handle and pressing the "PRESS" key.
Wash the central unit with hot water. Make sure
there are no coffee residues on the two steel
filters.
36
Remove the superior filter by means of the
supplied screw and clean it. Unscrew the
screw, turning it counterclockwise. Then, dry all
the parts of the central unit and tighten the filter
with the screw.

Coffee grinder
Never fill the coffee grinder with water: it may
DESCALING
damage the machine!
Descaling
Descaling is necessary to remove limescale
from all surfaces and holes, thus ensuring a
perfect operation of valves, heating controls
and other important parts.
Note: due to the complexity of the coffee
machine hydraulic circuit, the following
descaling cycles (automatic and standard)
do not allow the descaling of all tubes.
In fact, easily accessible compo-
nents such as the central unit (22)
and its plastic connection are ex-
cluded.
The machine must be descaled every 3-4 months,
according to the water hardness degree. A
more frequent descaling is recommended wher-
ever the water hardness degree is very high.
This machine is supplied with a particular
warning light
"DESCALING
"READY FOR USE
Descaling must be carried out at the latest when
this message is displayed. In spite of the message,
the machine does not stop working. To switch off
the display, press the steam key for approx. 5
seconds until the message disappears.
Furthermore, said display warning may be
adjusted according to the water hardness de-
gree. The machine has been adjusted at the
" factory to 25º fH value, which causes the
display to switch on showing the message
DESCALING after approx 150 l.
The water hardness value may be changed, if
necessary, following the instructions shown on
page 16.
The following adjustments are possible:
Hardness 4: high water hardness, over 29º
fH (14° dH), approx. 80 l water passage.
