10. Changing Parameters
Besides the six different coffee options and the cup sizes you can change a
variety of parameters as explained in chapters 10.1 through 10.6.
10.1 Changing the Grinder Fineness
Important: You can only adjust the fineness during the actual grinding process.
For darker beans, we recommend grinding somewhat coarser (turn the selector
to the thicker bars, clockwise); for lighter beans, we recommend grinding
somewhat finer (turn to finer bars, counterclockwise), see fig. 10.
Please note: If coffee drips very slowly through the coffee spout, the coffee
was ground too fine. Adjust to a coarser grind. If coffee flows too fast through
the coffee spout, adjust to a finer grind.
10.2 The Program Dial (fig. 14)
The Program Dial is located behind the door on the left side (fig, 1, 1b). It has a
small black button in the middle. We call it the "P Button". During normal oper-
ation the Program Dial points to position 1. On the inside of the door you will
find a card explaining the different positions. The program dial is used to:
• change parameters (position 2, 3, 7, 8)
• perform maintenance functions (position 4, 5, 6); see chapters 12.1 to 12.3.
• check statistics (position 9); see chapter 12.5.
Please note: On the back of the "door card" you will find additional information
about the frothXpress system.
10.3 Changing the Coffee Temperature
a. Turn the Program Dial to Pos. 2. The display shows TEMPERATURE/HIGH.
Push the P Button once. The display will change to TEMPERATURE/REGULAR.
Push it again and it will go back to high and so on.
b. In HIGH the temperature of the coffee is approximately 7º F higher than in
setting REGULAR.
Please note:
The temperature of the coffee is also influenced by the grinder setting and
the amount of coffee you are using. The finer the grind and the more coffee
the machine grinds (e.g. in 1 CUP X STRONG) the more resistance the water
has getting through the coffee thus increasing the temperature.
For highest temperature pre-warm the cups.
10.4 Auto Shut-Off Settings
Turn the Program Dial to Pos. 3. The display shows AUTO SHUT-OFF / AFTER
2 HOURS. Push the P Button repeatedly and the display will show 3, 4, 5, - ,1, 2,
and so on. In position "–" the machine will not turn off automatically. All other
selections will turn off the machine after last use, automatically.
10.5 Changing the Language
Turn the Program Dial to Pos. 8. The display shows LANGUAGE / ENGLISH.
Pushing the P Button you can choose from the following options:
LANGUE / FRANCAIS French
TAAL / NEDERLANDS Dutch
