Introduction Congratulations with your new Philips Baristina Espresso Machine. This machine is super simple to use and maintain. This machine has been tested with coffee. Although it has been carefully cleaned, there may be some coffee residues left. We guarantee, however, that the machine is absolutely new. Some features of the machine:

Direct start The direct start function allows you to switch on your machine and brew delicious coffee easily. There is no on/off button. Simply press the button of the drink you want to brew. Then move the portafilter to the right to start the grinding and the brewing process.

Intensity boost button

The Intensity boost function allows you to brew a more intense Espresso or Lungo. Select the button to switch the Intensity boost on. Press it again to switch it off.

Ejection button on the portafilter With this ejection button it is very easy to remove the coffee puck after each coffee brew. Remove the coffee puck by holding the portafilter upside down and pressing the ejection button.

You can remove the drip tray to create extra space to place taller cups or glasses. If the drip tray is removed you can place a cup with a height of up to 135mm.

Preparing for use Before first use, remove all packaging materials from the machine. When you use the machine for the first time or if you have not used it for 1 week or longer, perform the following steps: 1 Insert the portafilter into the machine until it clicks into position.

2 Remove the water tank from the machine.

3 Rinse the water tank. Fill the water tank with fresh water and place it back in the machine.

4 Place a large cup or coffee mug with a volume of at least 150 ml under the coffee spout.

5 Press and hold the Intensity boost button for 5 seconds until the button starts blinking slowly.

6 The machine heats up and starts rinsing water from the coffee spout into the cup. The Intensity boost button will continue to blink slowly during this process.

7 When the Intensity boost light stops blinking, the machine is done rinsing. Remove the portafilter and rinse it under the tap with fresh, lukewarm water. Rinse the portafilter thoroughly from both sides while pressing the puck removal button several times. 8 The machine is now ready for use.

Brewing Espresso or Lungo Standard drink volumes This coffee machine offers two standard drink recipes:

Intensity boost function

This machine comes with an Intensity boost function. This allows you to brew a more intense Espresso or Lungo by grinding more coffee. To use the Intensity boost function, first select an Espresso or Lungo by pressing the drink button, then press the Intensity boost button to switch this function on. As long as the Intensity boost function is enabled, the led in the Intensity boost button is on continuously. When you press it again, the Intensity boost function will be disabled.

Preparing coffee 1 Remove the lid of the bean container and fill it with coffee beans.

Warning: Do not use caramelized or flavored coffee beans.

2 Insert the empty and clean portafilter into the machine until it clicks into place. Note: Make sure the portafilter is empty.

3 Remove the water tank from the machine.

4 Fill the water tank with fresh water and place it back in the machine.

5 Place a cup under the coffee spout that can hold the amount of coffee you prefer (see 'Standard drink volumes'). Note: Make sure the cup is correctly placed under the spout of the portafilter.

You can place a cup with a height of up to 95mm when the drip tray is placed. You can remove the drip tray to create extra space to place taller cups or glasses. If the drip tray is removed you can place a cup with a height of up to 135mm. 6 Press the Espresso or Lungo button to select the drink you want to brew. The selected led will start blinking slowly. Note: You do not have to wait for the machine to heat up. You can continue to the next step to brew the coffee while the button is blinking slowly.

7 To brew a more intense Espresso or Lungo, select the Intensity boost button after selecting your drink. The led of the Intensity boost button will light up. To disable the Intensity boost function, press the button again (see 'Intensity boost function'). Note: The Intensity boost button can only be used if a drink button is selected first. 8 Move the handle to the right until you hear a “click”. The machine will start to grind the coffee beans. While grinding the selected drink, the led keeps blinking slowly.

9 When the machine is done grinding the coffee beans, the portafilter automatically moves back into starting position and the machine starts to brew the selected beverage. The led will keep blinking slowly.

English 10 When the led stops blinking, your coffee is ready. Enjoy your Espresso or Lungo brewed from freshly ground coffee beans.

11 When all leds are off, the portafilter can be removed. Remove the portafilter from the machine to empty it. Invert the portafilter over a bin and press the ejection button to remove the coffee puck from the portafilter. Note: Empty the portafilter after every coffee brew.

Brewing decaf coffee The machine provides also an option to brew decaf coffee using pre-ground coffee powder. 1 Add decaffeinated ground coffee (max. 10g or one full tablespoon) to the portafilter. 2 Insert the portafilter into the machine. 3 Make sure the water container is filled with water. 4 Place a cup under the coffee spout. 5 Press and hold the Intensity boost button for 5 seconds until the button starts blinking slowly. 6 The machine heats up and starts dispensing water through the portafilter to brew your decaffeinated coffee. The led is blinking slowly. 7 Press the Intensity boost button again when you have reached the volume of coffee you want. Your decaf coffee is now ready.

Programming drink volumes Each coffee button is programmed to brew coffee at its ideal setting. Nevertheless, you can adapt the volume of the drink buttons to your wishes and save your preference in the machine. The machine then brews your preferred amount of coffee every time. Note: Only the volume of the drink buttons can be programmed. The Intensity boost button cannot be programmed and/or selected during programming mode.

To program the coffee volume: 1 Fill the water container with fresh water.

2 Place a cup on the drip tray.

3 Insert the portafilter into the machine until it clicks into place.

4 Press and hold the button of the recipe you want to change for 5 seconds, until the button starts blinking intermittently.

5 Move the handle firmly to the right until you hear a “click”. The machine will start to grind the coffee beans for the selected beverage into the portafilter.

6 The portafilter automatically moves back into position and the machine starts to brew the selected beverage.

7 When the cup contains the desired quantity of coffee, press the blinking button (the button you are programming) again. The selected button will blink in a short burst to confirm that the new volume has been programmed.

3 While rinsing, turn the portafilter to rinse it from all sides, and press the ejection button several times.

4 Dry the portafilter with a clean and dry cloth. To thoroughly clean the portafilter head, soak it in warm water and some mild washing-up liquid for approximately 10 minutes. Then rinse it under the tap according to the instructions above. Note: If you have a portafilter with a wooden handle, make sure not to soak the handle in the water.

Cleaning detachable parts You can clean all detachable parts with hot water and some mild, odorless washing-up liquid. Dry the parts with a clean and dry cloth.

Only the drip tray and drip tray lid are dishwasher-safe.

Cleaning the bean container and outside of the machine Clean the inside of the bean container and the outside of the machine with a damp cloth. Dry the bean container and the outside of the machine with a dry cloth.

Do not pour water into the bean container and prevent excessive drops of water from falling into the bean container.

Descaling Descaling procedure When the Espresso and Lungo buttons blink simultaneously a few times after brewing a drink, your machine needs to be descaled. Use Philips CA6700 descaler.

1 Remove the drip tray from the platform and put a container with a capacity of at least 1.2 liters under the coffee spout.

2 Pour half a bottle (125ml) of Philips CA6700 liquid descaler into the water tank.

3 Fill up the water tank with fresh tap water.

English 4 Insert the portafilter. Make sure that there is no coffee puck in the portafilter. Note: The portafilter needs to be inserted to be able to start the descaling process.

5 Press and hold the the Espresso and Lungo buttons together for 5 seconds until the Espresso button starts to blink slowly and the Lungo button is on continuously.

6 The machine dispenses the entire descaling solution at regular intervals. This takes up to 30 minutes.

7 Wait until the Lungo button starts to blink fast and the Espresso button is on continuously. The first phase of the descaling cycle has finished.

8 Remove and empty the container.

9 Place the container back under the coffee spout.

10 Remove the water tank and rinse it under the tap. Fill the water tank with cold tap water and place it back in the machine.

11 Press the blinking Lungo button to start the flushing cycle.

12 While the machine is flushing, the Lungo button starts to blink slowly and the Espresso button is on continuously. Note: The water tank will be emptied without interruption. 13 When the flushing cycle is finished, the lights in the buttons will switch off. The descaling procedure is finished.

14 Remove the portafilter and rinse it under the tap with fresh water. While rinsing, turn the portafilter to rinse it from all sides, and press the ejection button several times. Then dry the portafilter with a clean, dry cloth.

What to do if the descaling procedure is interrupted In case the descaling procedure is interrupted during the phase with descaler and water mixture: unplug the machine, plug it back in and restart the descaling procedure from step one. In case the descaling procedure is interrupted during the flushing cycle: remove the water container, rinse it with water, refill the water container, place it back and rinse the machine a few times (see 'Rinsing the machine').
