If the action required was carried out, e.g. filling the water tank, the corresponding message and symbol will disappear.

Preparing drinks
This fully automatic coffee machine can be operated using coffee beans or ground coffee (but not instant coffee).
If using coffee beans, they will be freshly ground for each brewing. For optimum quality, store the beans in a cool place in sealed containers.

Important: Fill the water tank with fresh, uncarbonated, cold water every day. The tank should always contain sufficient water for operating the appliance.

Tip: Cups should be prewarmed, e.g. with hot water. This applies particularly to small thick-walled espresso cups.

Drink adjustment
By pressing the arrow button, different fields will appear for adjustment depending on the drink.
The field where the value can be changed has a light background.

An example:
The values for a cup of coffee can be changed as follows:

  • normal
  • strong
  • very strong
  • DoubleShot
  • DoubleShot +
  • DoubleShot ++

Aroma Double Shot
The longer the coffee is brewed, the more bitter substances and undesired aromas are released. This has a negative effect on the taste and makes the coffee less easily digestible. For extra strong coffee,the appliance has therefore a special Aroma Double Shot function. When half the quantity has been prepared, it grinds and brews fresh coffee beans so that only the pleasant, aromatic scents are released.
The Aroma Double Shot function is not available for ristretto, espresso macchiato, and when ground coffee is used.

Service programmes

(see also the Quick reference guide)
The following messages will appear on the display at certain intervals, either “Descaling programme urgently required!” or “Cleaning programme urgently required!” or “Calc’nClean programme urgently required!”.
The unit should immediately be cleaned or descaled using the appropriate programme.
Alternatively, the two processes Descale and Clean can be carried out together using the calc’nClean function (see the section “Calc‘nClean”). Failure to carry out the service programme according to the instructions may damage the appliance.

Important: If the appliance is not descaled when it is supposed to be, the message “Descaling programme is overdue. Device will shortly be locked.” will appear. Immediately perform the descaling process in accordance with the instructions. If the appliance is locked, it can only be operated again once the descaling process has been carried out.
To display how many beverages can still be prepared before one of the service programmes needs to be run, proceed as follows:

  • Touch .
  • Select “Service info” with the or arrow button.
  • Press to call up the information.

Warning!
For each of the service programmes, use descaling and cleaning agents as described in the instructions and observe the (relevant) safety information.
Never interrupt a service programme.

Do not drink liquids!
Never use vinegar, citric acid or any vinegar-based or citric acid-based agents.
Never place descaling tablets or other descaling materials in the coffee drawer!

Important: Before starting each service program (Descale, Clean or Calc’nClean) remove the brewing unit, clean as instructed and replace it.
Be careful not to jam the milk tube when closing the door.
After completion of each service programme, wipe the appliance immediately with a soft, damp cloth to remove any residues from the descaling and cleaning solution. It is possible for corrosion to form underneath such deposits.
New sponge cloths may contain salts. Salts can cause rust film on stainless steel and must therefore be washed out thoroughly before use.
Clean the beverage outlet, milk tubes and connecting piece thoroughly.
Specially developed, suitable descaling and cleaning tablets are available from retail outlets or from customer services (see the section “Accessories”).

Tips on energy saving

  • Touch to switch the appliance to “energy saving mode”. The appliances uses very little power when in “energy saving mode”, but monitors all safety-relevant functions so as to avoid damage.
  • In the menu under “Switch off after”, set the automatic switch off period to 15 minutes.
  • Reduce the brightness of the display and the illumination in the menu to save energy.
  • If possible, do not interrupt the dispensing of coffee or milk froth. Stopping a process prematurely results in higher energy consumption and the drip tray fills up more quickly.
  • Descale the appliance regularly to avoid a build-up of limescale. Limescale residues cause higher energy consumption.

Frost protection
To prevent frost damage during transport and storage, completely empty the appliance beforehand (see the section “Menu – Frost protection”).

Storing accessories
The fully automatic coffee machine has a special accessory drawer for storing the Quick reference guide and the accessories in the appliance.

  • Put the measuring spoon and the water filter into the accessory drawer.
  • Put the Quick Reference Guide into the special support at the front of the accessory drawer.
  • The long suction pipe can be stored in the holder on the inside of the door.
  • The connecting element can be fixed to the magnetic holder above the ground coffee drawer.
