ADJUSTMENTS - COFFEE BREWING

5.2Coffee Grinder Adjustment

Warning! The grinder adjustment knob, inside the coffee bean hopper, must be turned only when the grinder is working. Do not pour ground and/

or instant coffee into the coffee bean hopper.

Do not insert any material other than coffee beans into the hopper. The grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Therefore, do not insert fingers and/or other objects. Turn off the machine by pressing the ON/OFF button and remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any type of operation inside the coffee bean hopper. Do not pour coffee beans when the coffee grinder

is working.

The machine lets you make slight adjustments to the coffee grinder to adapt it to the kind of coffee used.

To make any adjustment, use the pin inside the coffee bean hopper; this must be pressed and turned using only the grinder adjustment key provided.

(Fig. 27) - Press and turn the pin one notch at a time. You must brew 2-3 coffees before you will taste a difference.

(Fig. 28) - The reference marks inside the coffee bean hopper indicate the grind setting; there are 5 different grind settings to choose from with the following references:

1 - Coarse Grind

2 - Fine Grind

•(Fig. 12) - Release the small coffee button when the amount of coffee in the cup reaches the desired level.

At this point the small coffee button is programmed; each time it is pressed and released, the machine will brew the same amount of coffee that was just programmed.

After 60 minutes of inactivity, the machines turns off automatically.

5.5Large Cups

Most cups on the market can be used with this coffee machine.

Make sure that the drip tray (8) is clean and empty before removing the grill and position-

ing the cup (see section 9).

5.3Adjusting the Amount of Coffee Brewed

The machine allows you to adjust the amount of brewed coffee according to your tastes and/or the size of your cups.

Each time you press and release a coffee button, the machine brews a pre-programmed amount of coffee. This amount may be reprogrammed to your taste. Each button may be individually programmed for a specific brew setting.

As an example, the following procedure describes the programming of the small coffee button (14), which is normally associated with espresso coffee.

•(Fig. 10A) - Place a cup beneath the dispensing head.

•(Fig. 12) - Press and hold down the small coffee button; the large coffee button blinks during this phase.
