The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13 amp capacity. Should this plug not fit the socket outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug, following the procedure outlined below. Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the obvious consequent danger. N.B. We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be switched off when the machine is not in use. important: the wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: GREENANDYELLOW EARTH BLUE NEUTRAL BROWN LIVE Green and Yellow to Earth 13 amp Fuse Brown to Live Blue to Neutral Cord Clamp As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size. After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover. Only 13amp replacement fuses which are asta approved to B.S. 1362 should be fitted. This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the suppression of radio interference.

When removing the tank, the milk frother must always be positioned towards the centre of the machine, otherwise the tank cannot be removed. Replace the tank, pushing it all the way in. Fig.1 · 4.2 FILLING THE CONTAINER WITH COFFEE BEANS · · · Open the lid on the coffee bean container (Fig.2). Fill the container with coffee beans. Close the lid. WARNING:To avoid malfunctions, never introduce ground coffee, freeze-dried coffee or caramelised beans, or other objects that may damage the machine. 4.3 USING THE COFFEE MAKER FOR THE FIRST TIME 1. Check that the water tank is full and that power cable is plugged into the power outlet. 2. Move the milk frother towards the outside and place a cup underneath (Fig.3).Then turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig.4). 3. IMMEDIATELY AFTER, WITHIN A MAXIMUM OF 30 SECONDS, turn the steam knob anticlockwise until it stops (Fig.5) (it is normal for the machine to make some noise). 4. After few seconds, a little water will come out of the milk frother. When there is around 30cc in the cup, turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig.6) until it stops, so as to stop the water coming out. 5. Wait for the and lights to stop flashing and stay on. (When the lights are flashing it means that the machine is pre-heating, while when they are on steady it means that the machine has reached the ideal temperature for making coffee - par. 11 - points 1 and 2). A few moments before the lights stop flashing the machine automatically performs a rinse cycle: a little hot water will come out of the delivery spouts and will be collected in the drip tray underneath. Tip: for a hotter, short coffee (less than 60 cc), , first fill the cup with the hot rinsing water.Then leave it inside for a few seconds (before emptying it) so as to pre-heat the cup. 6. At this point, the machine is ready for use. Fig.2 Fig.3 Fig.4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 8 5 PREPARING THE COFFEE (USING COFFEE BEANS) 1) Before delivering the coffee, always make sure that the green and lights are on steady, that the water tank and the coffee bean container are full. 2) Adjust the right-hand knob (Fig. 7) to set the desired taste of the coffee. Turning the knob clockwise increases the quantity of coffee beans that the machine will grind, and thus makes the taste of the coffee stronger. When using the machine for the first time, the correct position of the knob can be found by trial and error. Make sure not to turn it too far clockwise, otherwise the coffee will be delivered too slowly (in drops), above all when preparing two cups of coffee. 3) Adjust the left-hand knob (Fig. 8) to set the quantity of coffee required. Turning the knob clockwise makes a longer coffee. When using the machine for the first time, the correct position of the knob can be found by trial and error. 4) Place one cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee (Fig. 9) or 2 cups for 2 coffees (Fig. 10). For a creamy coffee, lower the spouts to bring them as close to the cups as possible (Fig. 11). 5) Press the button (Fig. 12) to make one cup of coffee or the button (Fig. 13) to make 2 coffees. At this point the machine grinds the beans, runs a short pre-infusion cycle, a pause and then completes the delivery. Once the desired quantity has been reached, the machine automatically stops delivering the coffee and discharges the grounds into the special container. 6) After a few seconds, when both the green and indicator lights are on again, another coffee can be made. 7) To switch the machine off, press the button. (Before switching off, the machine automatically runs a rinse cycle: a little hot water will come out of the spouts and will be collected in the drip tray underneath - be careful, to avoid being scalded ). If the machine is not switched off using the button, it will switch itself off and run a brief rinse cycle 3 hours after the last operation Fig.5 Fig.6 NOTE 1: : If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 17) one click clockwise (see para. 6).Turn a click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily. NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the right-hand knob (fig. 7) clockwise. Proceed by trial and error to find the correct position of the knob. Make sure not to turn the knob too far clockwise, otherwise the delivery may become too slow (in drops), above all when making two cups of coffee. If, after several coffees, the cream is still not satisfactory, also turn the grinding adjustment knob (Fig. 17) one click clockwise (see par. 6). NOTE 3: Tips on making hotter coffee: 1) ) If, when the machine has just been turned on, a short cup of coffee is required (less than 60cc), use the hot rinsing water to pre-heat the cups (see the suggestion in par. 4.3, point 5). If, on the other hand, more than 2/3 minutes have elapsed since the last coffee was made, before preparing another coffee the infuser must be pre-heated, pressing the button (Fig. 14). Fig.7 Fig.8 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 9 Then let the water flow out into the drip tray underneath, or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty) the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to pre-heat it. 2) Unless preheated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat. 3) Use cups that have been previously heated by rinsing them with hot water or alternatively by leaving them for at least 20 minutes on the cup warmer tray on top of the machine with the appliance on. NOTE 4: while the machine is making the coffee, the delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the button (Fig. 12) or button (Fig. 13), as previously selected. NOTE 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the button (Fig. 12) or button (Fig. 13), as previously selected, until reaching the desired quantity (this operation must be performed within 3 seconds from the end of the delivery of the coffee from the spouts). NOTE 6: when the alarm comes on (chap. 12, point 1), the water tank must be filled, otherwise the coffee cannot be made. The water tank can only be removed if the milk frother is first positioned towards the centre of the machine. (It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the alarm comes on). NOTE 7: : the machine counts the number of cups of coffee made. Each 14 single cups (or 7 double cups), the light switches on steady (chap. 12 point 3), warning the user that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned. Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the light will remain on and the machine cannot deliver coffee.To clean the container, open the service door on the front (pulling the handle, Fig. 15), the light flashes (see para 12 point 9); remove the drip tray (Fig. 16), empty and clean. Empty and carefully clean the grounds container, making sure to remove all the residues that may be deposited on the bottom.Also dry the any drops of condensate that may have formed inside the machine under the drip tray. IMPORTANT: when removing the drip tray, the grounds container MUST be emptied, even if it is not completely full. If this is not done, when next making coffee the grounds container may fill over the maximum level and block the machine with lumps of coffee grounds. NOTE 8: the grinder in the coffee maker may become worn over time and consequently the coffee will change taste as it is ground more coarsely. To resolve this problem, re-set the grinding coarseness on the coffee grinder by adjusting the knob (Fig. 17) one click anticlockwise (as described in chap. 6). NOTE 9: if the machine is not used for a long period, the infuser must be cleaned, as described in par. 10.2. NOTE 10: while the machine is delivering coffee, never remove the water tank. If it is removed, the machine will not be able to make the coffee and the "no water" light will flash. If you try and make another coffee, the machine becomes noisy and does not make the coffee.To reset the machine, turn the steam knob anticlockwise as far as it will go and run off water from the cappuccino maker for a few seconds. Fig.9 Fig.10 Fig.11 Fig.12 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 10 When using the machine for the first time, 4-5 cups of coffee need to be made before the machine starts to give satisfying results. When an alarm light comes on to signal an anomaly, do not contact the service centre straight away.The problems can almost always be resolved by following the instructions indicated in paragraphs 12 and 13. If necessary, contact the customer service by calling the number listed on the sheet enclosed on page 2. If your country is not listed on the sheet, call the number indicated on the warranty. 6 ADJUSTING THE COFFEE GRINDER The coffee grinder must not be adjusted, at least initially, as it has already been pre-set in the factory for the correct delivery of the coffee. Nonetheless, after having made the first coffees, if delivery is too fast or too slow (in drops), the grinding coarseness must be adjusted using the knob (Fig.17) located inside the bean container. Turning one click (one number) clockwise achieves faster delivery of the coffee (without drops). Turning one click anticlockwise achieves slower delivery and makes the coffee creamier in appearance. These adjustments will only be evident after the delivery of at least 2 cups of coffee. The grinding coarseness adjustment knob must only be turned when the coffee grinder is on. Fig.14 Fig.13 Turn anticlockwise for finer ground coffee and consequently slower delivery and a creamier appearance. Turn clockwise for coarser ground coffee and consequently faster delivery (not a drop at a time). Fig.15 NOTE 1: The machine has been tested in the factory using coffee and therefore it is completely normal to find some traces of coffee in the grinder. The machine is in any case guaranteed to be new. Fig.17 Fig.16 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 11 7 PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE WITH GROUND COFFEE (INSTEAD OF BEANS) 1. Press the button to select the ground coffee function (Fig. 18). The light inside the button switches on to indicate that the function has been selected and the coffee grinder has been disabled. 2. Lift the lid in the centre, insert the pre-ground coffee measure in the funnel (see fig. 19) and proceed as described in paragraph 5. NB:You can make just one coffee at a time by pressing the button. NOTE 1: Never add the ground coffee when the machine is off, to prevent it from spilling inside the machine. NOTE 2: Never add more than 1 measure, otherwise either the machine will not make the coffee and the pre-ground coffee will be lost inside the machine, dirtying it, or the coffee will be run off in drips. Fig.18 NOTE 3: When dosing the quantity of coffee to be added, only use the measure supplied. NOTE 4: Only use ground coffee for espresso coffee makers: do not use coffee beans, freeze-dried coffee or other materials that may damage the machine. NOTE 5: If you add more than one measure of pre-ground coffee and the funnel blocks, use a knife to push the coffee down (Fig. 20) and then remove and clean the infuser and the machine, as described in paragraph 10.2 "Cleaning the infuser". 3. Once the coffee has been delivered, to make coffee using the beans again, deactivate the ground coffee function by pressing the button again (the light goes off and the coffee grinder is enabled for operation again). 8 HOT WATER DELIVERY · · · · Always make sure that the green and lights are on steady. Turn the milk frother towards the outside of the machine (Fig. 3). Position a container underneath the milk frother (Fig. 3). Turn the steam knob half a turn in anticlockwise until it stops (Fig. 5): hot water will come out of the milk frother and start to fill the container underneath. To stop the flow of hot water, turn the knob all the way clockwise (Fig. 6) and return the milk frother to the original position towards the centre of the machine. (It is recommended to deliver hot water for no more than 2 minutes). Fig.19 Fig.20 · OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 12 9 PREPARING CAPPUCCINOS (USING STEAM) · Fill a container with around 100 grams of milk for each cappuccino being prepared. When choosing the size of the container, remember that the volume will increase by 2 or 3 times. It is recommended to use semi skimmed milk at fridge temperature in a small metal jug. Move the milk frother towards the outside (Fig. 3). Prepare the espresso coffee as described in the previous paragraph, using sufficiently large cups. Then press the steam button (Fig. 21).The light (Fig. 22) starts flashing to indicate that the machine is heating up. When the light remains on and stops flashing, the temperature of the machine has reached the ideal value for making the steam (par. 11 - point 6). Immediately after, within a maximum of two minutes (otherwise the machine automatically returns to the coffee function), dip the milk frother into the container of milk (Fig. 23), making sure not to immerse the line in relief on the milk frother (indicated by the arrow in Fig. 24) and turn the steam knob half a turn anticlockwise until it stops (Fig. 5). (Be careful, to avoid being scalded). The steam released will make the milk froth and increase in volume.To make creamier foam, dip the milk frother into the milk and rotate the container with slow movements from the bottom to the top (you are recommended to limit steam delivery to no more than two minutes at a time). Once having reached the desired temperature, stop the steam by turning the steam knob clockwise until it stops (Fig. 6) and then press the steam button (Fig. 21) to deactivate the steam function . Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso coffee prepared previously. The cappuccino is now ready (add sugar to taste and if desired, sprinkle the foam with a little cocoa powder). NOTE 1: : immediately after having prepared the cappuccino, once having pressed the steam button Fig. 21) to deactivate the function, when pressing the (Fig. 12) or button (Fig. 13) to make coffee again, the machine is too hot to make coffee (the green and lights flash to indicate that the temperature is not suitable); simply wait around ten minutes for the machine to cool down a little. HINT:To cool it down more quickly, after having deactivated the steam function, open the steam knob and release some water from the milk frother into a container, until the green and lights stop flashing. NOTE 2: The milk frother must always be cleaned after use. Proceed as follows: Release a little steam for a few seconds by turning the steam knob anticlockwise until it stops (Fig. 5). With this operation, the steam spout discharges any milk that may be left inside. IMPORTANT: For reasons of hygiene, this operation should always be performed, so as to prevent the milk from remaining in the circuits inside the milk frother. Turn the knob clockwise as far as it will go. With one hand, hold the cappuccino tube firm and with the other unscrew the cappuccino maker itself by rotating clockwise and extracting downwards (fig. 25). Remove the steam nozzle from the delivery spout by pulling it downwards (Fig. 26). · · · · Fig.21 · · Fig.22 · Fig.23 · · · Fig.24 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 13 · · · · Carefully wash the milk frother and the steam nozzle in warm water. Check that the two holes indicated by the arrows in Fig. 27 are not clogged. If necessary, clean them using a needle or pin. Replace the steam nozzle by inserting it and vigorously turning it upwards into the steam spout. Replace the milk frother by pushing it upwards and turning it anticlockwise. Before performing any cleaning operations, the machine must have cooled down and must be disconnected from the mains power supply. Never immerse the machine in the water: it is an electrical appliance. Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee maker. A soft damp cloth will suffice. All the components of the machine must not be washed in the dishwasher. 10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE · · · · Fig.25 10.1 CLEANING THE COFFEE MAKER · Clean the grounds container (as described in chapter 5, note 7) whenever the light comes on steady (chap. 12 - point3). · The water tank should be cleaned regularly. · The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the level of water inside. When the indicator starts to become visible (a few millimetres under the drip tray), the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned. · Check that the holes in the coffee delivery spout are not blocked. To clean them, scrape the dry coffee residues with a needle (Fig. 28).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 15 Check that the two red buttons have opened back out, otherwise the door cannot close. The two red buttons have opened out CORRECTLY The two red buttons have not opened out · · INCORRECT CORRECT NOTE 1: If the infuser is not inserted correctly until hearing the click and the two red buttons have not opened out properly, the service door will not close and the machine will not operate (when switching on the machine the light starts flashing (chap. 12 - point 9)). NOTE 2: if it is hard to insert the infuser, (before inserting it) squeeze it into size by pressing it vigorously from above and below at the same time, as shown in Figure 32 NOTE 3: if it is still hard to insert the infuser, leave it out of the machine, close the service door, unplug from the mains then plug in again.Wait for all the lights to go off, then open the door and replace the infuser. replace the drip tray, complete with the grounds container; close the service door. Fig.32 10.3 DESCALING Due to the continuous heating of the water used to make the coffee, over time it is normal for the tubing inside the machine to fill with lime scale. When the light starts flashing( chap. 12-point 5), it is time to descale the machine. NOTE: when the light switches on, the coffee maker can still be used to prepare coffee. Proceed as follows: · prepare the solution as indicated on the packaging of the descaling product supplied with the coffee maker (to purchase this contact an authorised Dè Longhi service centre). ONLY USE THE DESCALING SOLUTION SUPPLIED BY DE' LONGHI. · Pour the contents of the bottle of descaler (0.5 litres) into the water tank and then add water (0.5 litres, as described in the instructions on the bottle). · place a container with a minimum capacity of 1.5 litres under the milk frother (Fig. 3); · turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig. 4). · wait for the green and indicator lights to come on steady. · press and hold the button for at least 5 seconds (Fig.14). The light inside the button switches on (chap. 11 - point 8) to indicate the start of the descaling program (the and lights remain off to indicate that it is not possible to make coffee). · turn the steam knob half a turn anticlockwise (Fig.5). The descaling solution will come out of the milk frother and start to fill the container underneath. · the descaling program automatically performs a series of deliveries and pauses, so as to remove the lime scale deposits from inside the coffee maker. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 16 after around 30 minutes, when the light comes on (chap. 12 - point 1), turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig.6) until it stops. The machine must be rinsed so as to eliminate the residues of descaling solution from inside the machine. Proceed as follows: · remove the water tank, rinse it and fill it with clean water. · reposition the tank. · empty the collection container (located under the milk frother) that is full of liquid, and then replace it under the milk frother. · turn the steam knob half a turn anticlockwise (Fig. 5). Hot water will come out of the milk frother and fill the container underneath. · when the tank is empty, the light goes off and the light comes on (chap. 12 - point 1). · turn the steam knob all the way clockwise (Fig. 6) and fill the water tank with clean water again. · the descaling program finishes after an hour and the machine is ready to make coffee again. NOTE: if the descaling procedure is stopped before completion, the alarm (chap. 12 - point 5) is not deactivated and the procedure must be started again from the beginning. IMPORTANT: THE GUARANTEE IS NOT VALID IF THE ABOVE DESCALING OPERATION IS NOT PERFORMED REGULARLY. 10.4 SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS The light (chap. 12 - point 5) switches on after a preset period of operation, set in the factory, considering the maximum quantity of lime scale that may be contained in the mains water. If necessary, this period of operation can be extended, thus making the descaling operation less frequent, by programming the machine based on the actual lime content in the water used.
