3. Preparation

Please note:
☛
The coffee machine was set at the factory so that you could make your first cup
of coffee immediately. However, we recommend that you program the most
important basic settings according to your needs. Therefore, you should first
carry out the steps for filter and water hardness settings mentioned in chapter
4. Programming (starting on page 27).
☛
When using the coffee machine for the first time, or if it has not been used for
a long time, the first cup of coffee will not have a full aroma and should not be
drunk.

3.1 Selecting coffee strength

Depending on your taste, the strength of the coffee can be set at three different levels:
= mild ca. 7 gr. coffee grounds (e.g. cafe au lait, cappuccino)
= normal ca. 9 gr. coffee grounds (e.g. coffee with cream)
= strong ca. 11 gr. coffee grounds (e.g. espresso, strong coffee)
• As soon as the coffee machine is ready for operation, the display will show the pre-
programmed
• You can change this by pressing the selection knob (4) until the desired coffee
strength is displayed.

3.2 Selecting the water quantity

Using the water amount adjustment knob (3) you can adjust the amount of water on
a continuously variable point scale (small cup lower left for less water, large cup lower
right for more water).
☛
The amount of water can be changed while coffee is being brewed.

3.3 Brewing a cup of coffee

☛
You can adjust the height of the coffee outlet (8) so that it is just right for the size
of your cup.

will still be empty. It is possible that the
