g Dear Customer, Please read these operating instructions through carefully. Above all, observe the safety instructions! Please keep these operating instructions for later reference, and pass them on to any subsequent owners of the appliance. • • • • • • • Your fully coffee machine has functions that guarantee you easy operation, when preparing coffee plus simple maintenance and care. Information in the display will guide you step by step through the procedure.
g 9. 10. 11. 12. Decalcifying the Appliance What to do if ... Protecting the Environment If a Service is Required 1 Safety Instructions • The appliance may only be connected to the mains if the voltage, type of current, and frequency match the information on the rating plate (see underside of the appliance)! • Never allow children to operate the appliance unsupervised. • Never allow the mains lead to come into contact with hot parts of the appliance.
g 1. Before Using for the First Time 1.1. Setting up the Appliance Choose a suitable, level, stable, unheated, dry surface. Check that there is adequate air circulation. Important: If the appliance is placed in a warm room after being brought in from the cold, wait approx. 2 hours before switching it on! 1.2. Cable Compartment (Figure 3) Your appliance has a cable compartment at the rear. If the mains lead is too long, you can push the cable that is not needed into the cable compartment. 1.3.
g 0 Refit the water tank in the appliance and press it down until it engages so the valve on the base is opened.

Then rinse with clean water. 2.2.
g 2.6. Adjusting the Water Hardness Your appliance can be adjusted to the hardness of the water used. The water hardness must be adjusted correctly so that the automatic calcification indicator can function correctly (see also Section 9). Note: The water hardness setting need only be adjusted prior to using the appliance for the first time, or if the quality of the water used changes.
g If no new filter is fitted, the correct water hardness must be set (see Section 2.6). Otherwise the appliance will become calcified. This endangers your rights to make a claim under the guarantee and the appliance could be damaged! Please note that the filter cartridge must be replaced either after brewing approx. 500 cups of coffee or after 6 weeks (whichever is the sooner). The cartridge cannot be cleaned and must be replaced with a new one.
g 3.1. Adjusting the Amount of Water (Figure 10) The amount of water per cup can be adjusted using the selector dial (Figure 1/Q). Depending on your taste, select a “small” espresso (turn selector dial anticlockwise) or a “large” coffee with crema (turn selector dial clockwise). Note: You can also change the amount of water during brewing. As the coffee is brewing, turn the selector dial slowly anticlockwise from the maximum setting, until coffee ceases to run out at the required quantity.
