If some doses have to be changed (A-B-C-D), once at point 5 repeat the instructions in points 3-4-5 for each dose, remembering to use the filter-holder with relevant filter and freshly ground coffee.

Then carry out point 6 and repeat point 7 to check all changed doses.

If all units are to be programmed with the same doses, the selection of coffee doses is finished. If the dosage of another unit is to be changed (1-2-3-4 doses), pro- ceed as indicated in the above-mentioned point 1-7, using only the button panel of the selected unit.
