water from the steam nozzle for a few seconds.

3When using the appliance for the first time, at least 4-5 cups of coffee need to be made before the appliance starts to yield satisfactory results.

7.1Tips for making hotter coffee

•When you turn the appliance on, if you want to make a short coffee (less than 60 ml), use the hot rinse- through water to preheat the cups.

•Set a higher coffee temperature in the corresponding menu; see „Set- ting the coffee temperature“, page 47.

•If you have not dispensed coffee for a long period of time with the machine switched on, you should rinse the system before dispensing again, to pre-heat the brewing unit. Select the rinsing function in the corresponding menu (see „Running the rinsing program“, page 42). Run off the water into the underlying drip tray, or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty) the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to pre-heat the cup.

•Unless they have been pre-heated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat.

•Use cups that have been pre-heated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them for at least 20 minutes on the heated cup rack (H) with the coffee machine on.

7.2Running the rinsing program

The rinsing program allows the brew- ing unit and dispenser to be heated up.

This function allows you to make sev- eral cups of coffee completely auto- matically, which are poured into the stainless steel thermos jug that is supplied: Grinding, portioning, press- ing, pre-brewing, brewing and ejection of the coffee grounds are as described in the previous section.

The appliance is preset to make coffee of normal strength and in a medium cup size. You can also set your pre- ferred cup size and strength as described in the section „Setting the jug program (coffee strength and fill level for jug function)“, page 47.

0Turn the lid of the stainless steel ther- mos jug to the position for removal (Fig. 17), and take the lid off the jug. Rinse both the lid and the thermos jug.

0Place the thermos jug under the coffee dispenser (D), with the lid in position for pouring (fig 18). The dispenser must be slid up fully to allow the jug to be pushed in.

The display shows continuosly «FILL BEAN CONT. AND WATER TANK, EMPTY WASTE CONT., PRESS OK» to remind you of the basic operations that are necessary in order to allow the preparation of a series of coffees for the jug.

0After having checked that the water tank is full, the bean container has enough coffee beans, and the waste coffee container is empty, press the "OK" key (Fig. 5).
