WATER REFILL INDICATOR CONTROL PANEL-8 • This machine has a sensor which detects the when the water reservoir is empy the reservoir empy led will illuminate. the machine will not operate untill the water reservoir is re filled. Manually re start the programme.
INITIAL START-UP • Ensuring the water reservoir is full, turn the steam/water knob anti clockwise as shown above. • Switch the coffee machine on by pressing the on-off/stand-by control pressed until the red LED stops flashing and remains lit. This indicates the operating condition of the machine (flashing: STAND-BY; lit ON; out OFF). • At the same time the water temperature indicator will be on; this LED indicates the heating phase of the water inside the boiler.
• When the water is flowing close the steam/water knob by turning clockwise. • When the water temperature light goes out, the machine has reached the correct temperature and it is ready to make coffee. Only the on-off indicator are now lit. (if necessary, repeat the …….. process several times) RESETTING STANDARD VALUES • This coffee machine is calibrated in the factory to make the optimum Italian espresso, as approved by the coffee University of Naples and complying with ILLY standards.
• All the LEDs will briefly illuminate to indicate the factory values have been reset. N.B.: The standard values only concern the quantity of water required for each cup of coffee. Then the measures of ground coffee will not vary. CAUTION – ADJUSTING THE GROUND COFFEE • This machine is calibrated in the factory for an optimum level of ground coffee. Too “coarse” ground coffee whith result in too “fine” a ground coffee will result in very strong coffee,delivered by “drops” and tasting “……”.
• Pull the coffeee machine forward from it’s hausing by sliding it along it’s telescopic runners . • Turning the proper adjusting knob (A-10) will adjust the coffee texttureTurning the knob in clockwise direction will lead to a fine texture for a stronger coffee. Turning the knob anti-clockwise will lead to a coarse texture for a weaker coffee.
• Once powered and inserted into the cabinet, the machine is in stand-by mode: this will be signaled by the on/off LED blinking. • Keep the on/off button pressed as it is shown in the figure. • As soon as the machine is ready to operate, the LED will be kept on as it is shown in the figure.
