When starting the appliance for the first time, please carry out the following steps. When you have completed these steps, the appliance is ready for operation. You can now prepare coffee. We recommend pouring away the first two cups of coffee after the first start up.
Place the appliance on a stable, level, and dry surface. Make sure that there is a distance of 10 cm to the wall and other objects.
The Melitta® CAFFEO® LATTEA® has two rollers on the back side of the appliance. It can thus be easily moved by slightly lifting it from the front. Caution! –– Never place the appliance on hot surfaces or in damp areas. –– Do not transport or store the appliance in vehicles or rooms at low temperatures, as the remaining water could freeze or condense and thereby damage the appliance. Follow the instructions on page 73.
The coffee grounds container is located in the drip tray. Please make sure that the drip tray is pushed into the appliance all the way to the stop. Notes –– Keep the packaging material, including hard foam elements, in order to avoid damage during transport or in case of return shipments. –– It is normal to find traces of coffee and water in the machine before it is started up for the first time. This is because the appliance has already been tested for faultless function at the factory.
Plug the power cable into an appropriate power socket. Warning!
ENGLISH Danger of fire and electric shock due to incorrect supply voltage, incorrect or damaged connections and power cord. –– Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds to the supply voltage specified on the identification label of the appliance. The identification label is on the right side of the appliance behind the cover (Fig. B, no. 14). –– Make sure that the power socket meets the applicable standards for electrical safety. If in doubt, contact a qualified electrician. –– Never use damaged power cables (damaged insulation, bare wires).
Filling the bean container
Remove the lid of the bean container and fill the container with fresh coffee beans. Caution! –– Fill the bean container with coffee beans only. –– Never fill the bean container with ground, freeze-dried, or caramelised coffee beans.
Place the lid on the container.

The current operation will be stopped and the water tank must be filled before starting a new operation.
Switching on for the first time
All of the tubes have been drained and aired out at the factory. For this reason, the first time the appliance is switched on, the symbol for the milk shower will be illuminated after the heat-up phase and the appliance must be vented via the milk shower.
Caution! The appliance may only be vented without the Melitta® Claris® water filter and with a full water tank. –– Insert the Melitta® Claris® water filter into the water tank only after venting. –– Fill the water tank with fresh tap water to the max. mark before venting.

A Melitta® Claris® water filter is supplied with the appliance for filtering out limescale and other contaminants. Please only insert it after starting up the appliance for the first time. If you use the filter, you will have to descale the appliance less frequently and the water hardness will automatically be set to hardness level 1 (see page 59). The service life of your appliance will be extended thanks to this reliable protection from limescale. The water filter should be changed regularly (every 2 months); at the latest, however, it must be changed when the symbol for the water filter is shown on the display.
Prerequisite: The appliance must be switched off (see „Switching on and off“ on page 52).

Notes –– The Melitta® Claris® water filter should not remain dry over an extended period of time. We therefore recommend storing the Melitta® Claris® water filter in the refrigerator in a glass of water when the appliance will not be in use for extended periods. –– After inserting the Melitta® Claris® water filter, excess active charcoal will be washed out of the filter the first time the appliance is rinsed out. This can cause the rinse water to appear slightly grey in colour. The water will clear again subsequently.

10.6 Grinding fineness The grinding fineness level was optimally adjusted prior to delivery. Consequently, we recommend that you only readjust grinding fineness after dispensing approximately 1,000 coffees (about 1 year). You can only set the grinding fineness while the mill is running. Thus, adjust grinding fineness directly after coffee dispensing starts. If the coffee flavour is not sufficiently intense, then we recommend that you set a finer grinding level.
