Priming the Water Circuit

• (Fig.7) - To prime the water circuit, place a container
below the steam wand (Pannarello for Plus version)
(10).
• (Fig. 9) - Turn the control dial (17) clockwise to set it
to the " " position and wait.
When water regularly comes out and the warning light
(18) will blink slowly, indicating that you can turn off the
control dial, rotate the control dial counter-clockwise
to set it back to the " " position.
• At this point the temperature light (19) begins to blink
slowly, indicating that the machine is in warm-up
mode.
Note: Before starting the machine after long
periods of inactivity or if the water tank has
been completely emptied, it is recommended that
the circuit be primed.
When warm-up is complete, the machine
performs a rinse cycle of the internal circuits
(see section 4.4).
• When the above steps are complete, the machine is
ready for use.
• To brew coffee, dispense hot water or steam, and
for a proper use of the machine, carefully follow the
instructions provided.
4.5 Rinse/Self-Cleaning Cycle
This cycle rinses the coffee circuits with fresh water.
The rinse/self-cleaning cycle is carried out:
• When the machine is turned on (with cold boiler)
• After priming the water circuit (with cold boiler)
• During the warm-up phase (if a coffee product has
been brewed)
• When the machine is turned off (if a coffee product
has been brewed)
Note: Place a container beneath the dispen-
sing spout (5) before the dispensing starts
(Fig. 8).
A small amount of water will be dispensed which will
rinse and heat all the machine components; in this
phase the lights will fl ash counter-clockwise.
Wait for the cycle to fi nish automatically. You can stop
dispensing as well, by pressing either coffee button.
5 ADJUSTMENTS
The machine that you have bought allows for certain
adjustments that will permit you to use it to its full
potential.
5.1

Saeco Adapting System

Coffee is a natural product and its characteristics may
change according to its origin, blend and roast. The
Saeco coffee machine is equipped with a self-adjusting
system that allows the use of all types of coffee beans
available on the market (not including flavored or
carmelized).
• The machine automatically adjusts itself in order to
optimize the extraction of the coffee, ensuring perfect
compression of the beans to obtain a creamy espresso
coffee that will release all the aromas, regardless of
the type of coffee used.
• The optimization process is a learning process that
requires the brewing of a certain number of coffees
to allow the machine to adjust the compactness of the
ground coffee.
• Attention should be given to special blends, which
require grinder adjustments in order to optimize the
extraction of the coffee (see section 5.2).
