Thank you for choosing this De’Longhi coffee machine. To get the best result out of your new coffee machine please read these instructions carefully before use. This should ensure optimum results and maximum safety. Safety Warnings • This appliance is designed to make coffee. Take care during use to avoid burns caused by the water or steam jets or improper use of the appliance itself. • When the appliance is in use, do not touch any of the machine’s hot surfaces.
• As with any electrical appliance, whilst the instructions aim to cover as many eventualities as possible, caution and common sense should be applied when operating your appliance, particularly in the vicinity of young children. • Materials and accessories coming into contact with food conform to EC regulation 1935/2004.
Using for the first time Before using the machine for the first time, wash all the accessories in warm soapy water and rinse. For the best tasting coffee the internal circuits must be flushed through at least twice. To do this, follow the instructions in the paragraph “How to prepare the filter coffee” without using ground coffee. Installation • After removing the packaging, make sure the product is complete.
How to prepare the filter coffee Unlock Unlock fig. 1 Water level indicator fig. 2 fig. 3 • Open the door by pulling the handle (fig. 1) and by using the jug pour fresh water into the water compartment up to the level corresponding to the number of cups you want to make. Check the water level viewer. It is recommended to use the provided carafe as the measure, as the maximum volume of the carafe corresponds to that of the water tank (fig. 2).
• The coffee will start to come out after a few seconds. It is completely normal for the appliance to release a little steam while the coffee is filtering. • Models with glass jug: If you leave the ON/OFF button pressed after percolation has finished, the plate will keep the coffee at the ideal temperature. The unit automatically shuts off after two hours. • Models with thermal jug: To pour the coffee, turn the lid to the position shown in (fig. 9).
Descaling If the water in your local area is hard, lime scale will form over time. These deposits may affect the correct operation of the appliance. Models with electronic control panel: When the "ON/AUTO/OFF" button flashes continuously, proceed with descaling. Models with single switch: It is recommended to descale the appliance after approximately every 60 uses. The descaling process may be performed using special commercially available scale removers for filter coffee makers.
