Selecting the quantity of coffee in the cup

Customising the “my coffee” quantity

To modify this quantity, proceed as follows:

1.Place a cup under the coffee spouts (fig. 14).

2.Press the button (fig. 10) until “MY COFFEE” is displayed.

3.Keep the button (fig. 11) pressed until the message “1 MY COFFEE Program quantity” is displayed and coffee delivery begins. Release the button.

press the button (fig. 11) again.

The quantity of coffee in the cup has now been programmed.

Adjusting the coffee mill

The coffee mill is preset in the factory to make coffee correctly and should not require adjusting initially.

However, if after making the first few coffees you find that the coffee is too thin and not creamy enough or that delivery is too slow (a drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting the grinding adjustment dial (fig. 12).

Please note!

The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the coffee mill is in operation.

If the coffee is delivered too slowly or

not at all, turn one click clockwise to-

wards “7”.

For fuller bodied creamier coffee on the

other hand, turn one click anticlockwise towards “1” (do not turn more than one click at a time otherwise the coffee could be delivered a drop

at a time).

These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of coffee have been delivered.

If this adjustment does not obtain the desired result, turn the dial another click.

Tips for a hotter coffee

For a hotter coffee, before delivery you are recommended to:

•perform a rinse cycle by selecting the“Rinsing”function in the settings menu (page 10)

•warm the cups with hot water (using the hot water function);

•increase the coffee temperature in the settings menu

(page 11).

Making coffee using coffee beans

Important!

Do not use caramelised or candied coffee beans as they could stick to the coffee mill and make it unusable.

1. Place coffee beans in the coffee bean container (fig. 13).
