Warning! The grinder adjustment knob, inside

The machine lets you make slight adjustments to the
coffee grinder to adapt it to the kind of coffee used.
To make any adjustment, use the pin inside the coffee
bean hopper; this must be pressed and turned using
only the grinder adjustment key provided.

You must brew 2-3 coffees before you will taste a
difference.

5.3 Adjusting the Amount of Coffee Brewed
The machine allows you to adjust the amount of brewed
coffee according to your tastes and/or the size of your
cups.
Each time you press and release a coffee button, the
machine brews a pre-programmed amount of coffee.
This amount may be reprogrammed to your taste. Each
button may be individually programmed for a speci c
brew setting.
As an example, the following procedure describes the
programming of the small coffee button (14), which is
normally associated with espresso coffee.

button; the large coffee button blinks during this
phase.
(Fig. 12) - Release the small coffee button when
the amount of coffee in the cup reaches the desired
level.
At this point the small coffee button is programmed;
each time it is pressed and released, the machine
will brew the same amount of coffee that was just
programmed.
