D) Program the CUP WARMER: The cup warmer
allows you to keep your cups warm, so that
the beverage you are preparing will be
poured into pre-heated cups and your
coffee will stay warmer longer. You can
fit approximately 6 espresso demi cups or
4 cappuccino cups on the cup warmer. If
you wish you can turn off the cup warmer
function.
E) Program the coffee TEMPERATURE: This
machine allows you to program the brewing
temperature. There are 5 choices: minimum,
low, medium, high and maximum. The
temperature will vary depending on many
factors such as weather, type of coffee,
water and type of beverage you are
making. If you like your beverages very
hot for Lattes and Cappuccinos, you should
select maximum or high temperature. If you
prefer a beverage that is not as hot, such
as a coffee or even a long shot of espresso,
you should select medium. If you prefer a
beverage not too hot because you like your
Americano just right, you should select low
or minimum.
F) Program the PRE-BREWING function: This
function is designed for the espresso coffee
lover. It’s an option that you may decide
to use, depending on your taste. Basically
the pre-brewing function, ON, will slightly
dampen the ground coffee dose a few
seconds before the shot is pulled. This
helps compact the coffee and extract better
espresso; it also improves the crema on the
shot. If you want more coffee extraction or a
stronger brew, you must program LONG. If
you don’t want the PRE-BREWING function
at all, program it to the OFF position.
G) Program the PRE-GRINDING function:
This feature is designed to speed up the
service when you have to make several
consecutive shots. If this function is ON,
the grinder will grind 2 shots when you press
the shot button once. This means that it

A) Program the RINSING function: This function
serves to clean/rinse and heat the inner
circuit that goes from the brewing group
to the coffee dispenser. An ounce of fresh
water will pass through the circuit to clean
any impurities. It will prepare the machine to
deliver a clean shot. If you wish not to activate
this function you will need to program it to
OFF. (See display # 10 below.)
B) Program the LANGUAGE of the display:
This function allows you to program the
display language. You have a choice of
8 languages: English, Italiano (Italian),
Français (French), Deutsch (German),
Nederlands (Dutch), Portugues (Portuguese),
Espagnol (Spanish) and Polish.
C) Program the WATER HARDNESS: You can
determine the water hardness by dipping the
test strip in the water from your faucet. Simply
fill up the water tank, dip this strip and count
how many squares have changed color from
1 to 4. Now you can input this number into
the water hardness program. The water
hardness program will determine when
the machine will need to be descaled. The
harder the water, the sooner the descaling
will happen. If your water is set to hardness
#1 your machine will have to be descaled
much later than if you set it to hardness
#4. If you don’t wish to perform the water
hardness test then simply use the default
water hardness #3. The default settings
will indicate when you have to perform the
descaling function.
