SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

Please note!

• The first time you use the machine, the water circuit is empty and the appliance could be very noisy. The noise becomes less as the circuit fills.
• Coffee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is therefore completely normal for there to be traces of coffee in the mill. The machine is, however, guaranteed to be new.
• You should customise water hardness as soon as possible

1. Insert the power cable connector (D7) into the socket (A21) at the back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply (fig. 1). Make sure the main switch (A22) at the back of the appliance is pressed (fig. 2);

2. "SELECT LANGUAGE": Press and hold until the required language appears on the display, then press the flag corresponding to the language.

Follow the instructions indicated on the appliance display:

3. "FILL TANK WITH" "FRESH WATER": remove the water tank (A17) (fig. 3), fill to the MAX line (marked on the tank) with fresh water (fig. 4, then put the tank back in the appliance (fig. 5);

4. "INSERT WATER SPOUT": Check that the hot water spout (D6) is inserted on the connection nozzle (A8) (fig. 6) and place a container holding a minimum of 100 ml underneath (fig. 7);

5. "WATER CIRCUIT EMPTY" "PRESS OK TO START": press to confirm. The appliance delivers hot water from the spout (fig. 8) then goes off automatically.

The coffee machine is now ready for normal use.

Please note!

• The first time you use the appliance, you need to make 4-5 cappuccinos before it starts to give satisfactory results.
• When making the first 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to hear the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise becomes less.
• To improve the performance of your appliance, we recommend installing a water softener filter (D7). If your model is not provided with a filter, you can request one from De'Longhi Customer Services.

TURNING THE APPLIANCE ON

Please note!

Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch (A22) is pressed (fig. 2).

Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an automatic preheat and rinse cycle.

• To turn the appliance on, press the button (A15) (fig. 8). The message "HEATING UP UNDERWAY" "PLEASE WAIT" appears on the display.

• When heating is complete, the message changes to: "RINSING UNDERWAY" "PLEASE WAIT". As well as heating the boiler, this also heats the internal circuits by circulating hot water.

The appliance is ready for use when the main screen (homepage) appears.

TURNING THE APPLIANCE OFF

Whenever the coffee machine is turned off after being used to make coffee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.

To turn the appliance off, press the button (A15) (fig. 8)

The message "TURNING OFF UNDERWAY" "PLEASE WAIT" appears on the display, then (if envisaged) the appliance performs a rinse cycle and goes off (standby).

CLEANING

Cleaning the machine

The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:

• the appliance’s internal circuit;
• coffee grounds container (A11);
• drip tray (A15), condensate tray (A10), drip tray grille (A14) and tray full indicator (A13);
• water tank (A17);
• coffee spouts (A9);
• pre-ground coffee funnel (A4);
• infuser (A20), accessible after opening the infuser door (A19);
• milk container (E);
• hot water connection nozzle (A8);
• touch screen (B).

Important!

• Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean the coffee machine. With De’Longhi superautomatic coffee machines, no chemical products are required for cleaning purposes.
• None of the components of the appliance can be washed in a dishwasher with the exception of the drip tray grille (A14) and milk container (E).
• Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coffee deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

Cleaning the internal circuit

If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using it again, we strongly recommend switching it on and:

• performing 2/3 rinse cycles by selecting the "Rinse" function;
• delivering hot water for a few seconds.

Please note! After cleaning, it is normal for the grounds container (A11) to contain water.

Cleaning the coffee grounds container

When "EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER" appears on the display, the grounds container must be emptied and cleaned. The appliance cannot be used to make coffee until you have cleaned the grounds container (A11). Even if not full, the empty grounds container message is displayed 72 hours after the first coffee has been prepared. For the 72 hours to be calculated correctly, the machine must never be turned off with the main switch (A22).

Important! Danger of scalding

If you make a number of cappuccinos one after the other, the metal cup tray (A12) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down before touching it and handle it from the front only.

To clean (with the machine on):

1. Remove the drip tray (A15) (fig. 22), empty and clean.

2. Empty the grounds container (A11) and clean thoroughly to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done using the spatula on the brush (D5) provided.

3. Check the condensate tray (A10) (red) and empty if necessary.

Important! When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be emptied, even if it contains few grounds. If this is not done, when you make the next coffees, the grounds container may fill up more than expected and clog the machine.

Cleaning the drip tray and condensate tray

Important! The drip tray (A15) is fitted with a level indicator (A13) (red) showing the amount of water it contains (fig. 23). Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray (A12), the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may overflow the edge and damage the appliance, the surface it rests on or the surrounding area.

To remove the drip tray, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the drip tray and coffee grounds container (A11) (fig. 22);

2. Remove the cup tray (A12) and drip tray grille (A14), then empty the drip tray and grounds container and wash all components.

3. Check the condensate tray (A15) (red) and empty if necessary;

4. Put the drip tray complete with grille and grounds container back in the appliance.

Cleaning the inside of the coffee machine

Danger of electric shock!

Before cleaning internal parts, the machine must be turned off and unplugged from the mains power supply. Never immerse the machine in water.
