2. PREPARING THE APPLIANCE

Wash all accessories with warm water and washing-up liquid,
then proceed as follows:
1. Insert the drip tray (A19) complete with cup grille (A16)
and relative support (A17) (fig. 1);
2. Extract the water tank (A7) (fig. 2) and fill with fresh clean
water, taking care not to exceed the MAX level (fig. 3).
3. Put the tank back in the appliance.
Important: Never operate the appliance without water in the tank or without the
tank.
Please note: You should customise water hardness as soon as possible following the
instructions in section "7. Settings menu".

3. SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

1. Plug into the mains socket. Press the main switch (A1) (fig.
4);
2. Place a container with a minimum capacity of 100 ml under
the hot water spout (A11) (fig. 5);
3. Press the OK button (B6) (fig. 6). Delivery begins and stops
automatically. Empty the container.
Before using the coffee maker, the internal circuits of the ma-
chine must be rinsed. Proceed as follows:
4. Place the coffee filter (C3) or (C4) in the filter holder (C1)
5. Attach the filter holder (C1) complete with filter to the appli-
ance. To attach correctly, align the filter holder handle with
"INSERT" (fig. 7), then turn the handle to the right until it is
aligned in the "CLOSE" position;
6. Place a container under the filter holder and steam wand
(A9);
7. Press the OK button (B6). Delivery begins;
8. When delivery has finished, press the steam button (B9)
(fig. 8) and deliver steam for a few seconds to rinse the
steam circuit. For best results, repeat 3 or 4 times. The pur-
pose of this procedure is to purge any water from the circuit
before using steam to prepare a beverage.
The appliance is ready for use.
Please note:
We also recommend rinsing the internal circuits if the appliance is
not used for a long period.
The first time you use the appliance, you need to make 4-5 cups
of coffee before the appliance starts to give satisfactory results.
Pay particular attention to the quantity of pre-ground coffee
