To do this you need to follow the instructions below:

1.Insert the power cord into a 230-240V AC power outlet and switch the power ‘ON’ at the mains only, so that no lights are illuminated on the espresso machine control panel (ie. the power outlet should be 'ON' but the espresso machine will be 'OFF').

2.Press and hold down the 'COFFEE' button for 3 seconds.

3.While still holding down the 'COFFEE' button briefly press the ‘POWER’ button and release.

4.Release the 'COFFEE' button.

Note: This activates the programmability of the Espresso Temperature and to signal this, the machine will output the current setting with a sequence of beeps. See chart below to determine what setting your machine is programmed to.
