10.0 Grinder settings

Your coffee maker leaves our factory preset
to the optimum values for most types of
coffee beans. However, you also have the
option to adjust the grinding settings to suit
your personal preferences.
Note: The grinding fineness may only be
adjusted when the grinder is running.
Use the special multifunctional tool (en-
closed with the appliance) to move the
fineness setting to the required position. The
display shows the current value:
Grinder setting 1 = fine / turn clockwise
Grinder setting 6 = coarse / turn counter-
clockwise
Factory default setting 3 - 4 = medium
fineness
If the coffee is ground more finely, the
brewing time increases (the coffee becomes
stronger) as does the amount of froth.

11.0 Preheating cups

Aside from your choice of coffee blend and
the quality of your water supply, the correct
cup temperature is a major factor in ensur-
ing you receive an excellent cup of coffee.
11.1 Store your clean cups on the cup
preheating stand to keep them warm.
They are heated by indirect radiation from
the appliance heating system.

11.2 An alternative method to quickly
preheat cups when necessary, is to rinse
them out with hot water drawn from the hot
water / steam nozzle. The coffee maker
needs to be in Ready mode. We especially
recommend this method for small coffee
quantities (e.g. espresso).

12.0 Care and cleaning

As well as extending the life of your appli-
ance, always keeping your coffee maker in a
clean and proper condition will directly
reward you through the resulting excellence
of the coffee you will enjoy.
The appliance has a built-in automatic rinse
programme as well as a compulsory regular
cleaning programme, which combined with
the additional option of thoroughly cleaning
the brewing unit by hand guarantees that
you can keep your coffee maker in an
optimally clean condition.
Note: If you are going to be away for a
lengthy period such as on holiday, we
recommend that you run the rinse pro-
gramme before you switch off the appliance.
12.1 Daily and weekly care
The fresh water tank (1) (for the model with
tank), drip tray (6), cup tray (5) and grounds
container (7) must be cleaned at regular
intervals (see page 27). Use hot water with,
if necessary, a non-abrasive cleaning agent.
Never put parts of your coffee maker into
the dishwasher!
