Environmental protection
Saving energy
▯ If the appliance is not being used, switch it off.
▯ Set the interval for automatic switch-off to the lowest
value.
▯ If possible, do not interrupt coffee or milk froth
dispensing. 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 residue results in higher energy
consumption.
Disposing in an environmentally
responsible manner
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally responsible
manner.
Please ask your dealer about current means of disposal.

Notes
▯ The integrated fan switches on each time a beverage
is dispensed and switches off again after a few
minutes.
▯ The very first cup of coffee dispensed will not develop
the full aroma. The same applies if the machine has
not been used for some time.
▯ The appliance is preprogrammed with the standard
factory settings for optimal operation.
▯ After setting up the appliance, you will achieve a
suitably thick and stable "crema" only after the first
few cups have been dispensed.
--------
You may be able to select further options depending on
your choice of beverage:
--------
Aroma function "Extra strong"
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. Your appliance therefore has a special
"Aroma" function for very strong coffee. The machine
dispenses half of the required quantity and then grinds
and brews fresh beans for the other half, so only the
pleasant-tasting and easily digestible aromas are
released.
The "Aroma" function "Extra strong" or "Extra
strong 3ˆ 2x" is only available for certain settings. The
coffee is prepared in two stages for this setting. Wait
until the process is fully completed.
