(If you are using pre-

coffee grinder has already been pre-set in the factory for the correct delivery of the espresso / coffee.

2. If after making the first espresso / coffee the delivery it too fast or too slow (in drops), the grinding coarseness must be adjusted using the coffee grinder dial (Figure 3) located inside the bean container.

3.Turning one click (one number) clockwise achieves faster delivery of the espresso / coffee and a coarser ground coffee.

4.Turning one click (one number) counter-clockwise achieves slower delivery of the espresso / coffee and a finer ground coffee (and makes the coffee creamier in appearance).

5.These adjustments will only be evident after the delivery of at least 2 cups of espresso / coffee.

6.The coffee grinder dial must only be turned when the coffee grinder is on.

the cup is 1/3 full, turn the steam control dial half a turn clockwise (Figure 8) to terminate the flow of water.

13. Wait for the	and	lights to stop flashing. When the lights are flashing, the machine is still
pre-heating.

14.The machine will automatically perform a rinse cycle and a little hot water will release from the coffee spouts and collect in the drip tray.

espresso/coffee and is now ready for use.
16. Note: Before preparing the espresso/coffee, always make sure that the green	and
