MAKING COFFEE The X7.1 is designed for use with Illy Iperespresso capsules only.

CAUTION: - Each capsule contains a single dose of coee. Capsules should not be re-used. - For safety reasons, the machine automatically switches o the dispenser function after it has been running for about a minute. - Don't forget to empty and clean the drip tray regularly. To prepare a coee, proceed as follows:

• Twist the capsule holder to the left and disengage it from the dispenser head.

• Insert the capsule as shown in the gure. NOTE: the capsule should t snugly into the holder; if not, remove it and re-insert it properly. NOTE: After the brew button is pressed, it takes the ma- chine a couple of seconds to start dispensing coee; this slight delay is perfectly normal.

• Insert the capsule holder in the dispenser head ; twist the cap- sule holder to the right until it locks in position.

• Make sure the brew button is lit.

• Press and release the brew button ; the machine dispenses the desired amount of coee. To stop dispensing early, press the button again. To make another coee, replace the used capsule and repeat the operation described above.31

PROGRAMMING THE MACHINE TO DISPENSE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF COFFEE You can programme the X7.1 to dispense exactly the amount of coee you want: just press the brew button when the machine has dispensed the desired amount: the machine will memorize the amount and stop dispensing. You can also manually programme the amount of coee you want the machine to dispense.

Programming a new ll level setting:

• Insert a capsule in the capsule holder and click it into place in the dispenser head.

• Place a coee cup below the capsule holder.

• Press and hold the brew button.

• Once the machine has dispensed the right amount of coee, release the button.

• The new setting has been stored in the machine's memory. You can use the manual dispensing mode to adjust the amount of coee dispensed for each new cup without changing the stored settings. Manual dispensing:

• Press and hold the brew button for 3 seconds. The machine dispenses coee.

• Once the machine has dispensed the amount of coee you want, press the button again to stop dispensing.

• The amount dispensed is not stored in the machine's memory.32

The steam wand which comes with the machine allows you to froth milk for cappuccino. Make one or more cups of coee, following the instructions above. To froth the milk:

NOTE: When the steam wand is dispensing steam, the button ashes. Pour some cold milk into a suitable recipient (preferably a metal jug). NOTE: For best results: pour 75 ml of whole cold milk, taken fresh from the fridge, into a suitable recipient (preferably a metal jug) and immerse the steam wand in the milk for no more than 25 seconds.

Press the steam button ; the steam symbol on the dial lights up to indicate that the machine is preparing to enter "steam" mode. When the machine reaches the required temperature, the button lights up. The machine emits a beep. Insert the steam wand into a suitable (preferably metal) empty recipient and press the button to drain o remain- ing water; once the wand is emitting only steam, press the button again to stop it. Fully immerse the steam wand in the milk. Press the button to froth the milk. Once the milk is foamed to the right consistency, press the button again to stop frothing .

Carefully remove all residue of milk from the steam wand after each use:

• Press and hold the button for a few seconds. Release.

• Press the button again.

• Allow the machine to cool down for a few minutes.

• Remove the tip Z and wash it under running water.

• Clean the internal nozzle X with a damp cloth. NOTE: Both parts of the steam wand are dishwasher-safe. Before placing them in a dishwasher, remove the inner part of the metal tube. After cleaning, slide the inner nozzle X onto the steam tube and push until it clicks into place. Then t the outer tip Z back into place. CAUTION: - The steam wand and the steam it dispenses can cause serious burns. - When the steam function has been inactive for about 5 minutes, the machine automatically returns to coee-maker mode; one minute before switching mode, the button begins to ash. Press this button to remain in steam mode. - During the heating phase and once it's in steam mode, the machine brings the thermoblock up to temperature. This may cause small amounts of steam to escape from the capsule holder: to avoid the risk of scalding, keep the hands and other parts of the body well away from the coee dispensing head.33

The steam wand which comes with the machine also dispenses hot water to make teas and infusions. Make sure the brew button is lit. Proceed as follows:

Clean any milk residue from the steam wand.

Place a metal jug under the steam wand.

Press and hold the steam but- ton for at least 3 seconds. The wand starts to dispense hot water and the steam button ashes rapidly. Press the steam button again to stop the wand from dispensing hot water. MAKING COFFEE AFTER USING THE STEAM WAND Never make an espresso immediately after using the steam wand, as the water passing through the thermoblock is too hot for making coee and will compromise its avour. The brew button is disabled when the temperature of the thermoblock is too high.

To return to coee-maker mode, press the brew button and wait for the coee cup symbol to light up ; during the cooling phase (about 10 minutes), the large coee cup symbol ashes.

To return the machine to cof- fee-maker mode more quickly (about 1 minute), proceed as follows:

• Place a metal jug under the steam wand.

• Press and hold the steam but- ton for 3 seconds. The steam wand dispenses the programmed amount of hot water; the dispenser shuts o automatically.34

DESCALING 1. If the warning symbol on the outer dial starts ashing (once every 2 seconds), you need to descale your machine. This is a two-step process: rst, descaling (approx. duration 14 minutes), followed by rinsing (approx. duration 3 minutes). 2. Limescale accumulation is a normal result of machine use. The machine has an automatic program that helps optimize cleaning and removes scale deposits from the interior. Failure to descale your machine may result in malfunctions that are not covered by the warranty. 3. For the descaling procedure, refer to that indicated in the corresponding chapter in this manual. Use only descaling products for coee machines, dissolved according to the proce- dures indicated in the instructions for the product. 4. In the event of a power outage during the descaling procedure, the descaling cycle resumes at the point it was interrupted.

Switch the machine o. • Remove the water tank and ll it with 1 litre of water (up to the MAX line). Remove the capsule holder.

• Pour the descaling solution into the tankand mix until fully dis- solved.

• Remove the tip from the steam wand to make the next operation easier.

• Place a recipient of capacity of at least 1litre under the dispenser head and steam wand.

Switch the machine on: within 15 seconds of switching on, press and hold the button until the machine emits 4 beeps (3 short and 1 long). Release the button. The button ashes: the machine is ready to start the descaling cycle.

Press once and release the button to start the descaling cycle. Buttons and ash alternately. The machine's dispenser head and steam wand will intermittently emit water while the operation is in progress (duration: 14 minutes). NOTE: the descaling cycle can be put on hold by pressing the button. Press the button to resume the cycle.35

A long beep indicates the descaling phase is complete. The next step is to rinse the machine's water circuits to eliminate descaling solution residue. The button keeps ashing.

• Remove the water tank and wash it thoroughly. Fill it with 1 litre of fresh water (up to the MAX line).

• Place the empty recipient of capacity of at least 1litre back under the dispenser head and steam wand. Press once and release the button to start the rinsing cycle. Buttons and ash alternately. The machine's dispenser head and steam wand will intermittently emit water while the operation is in progress (duration: 3 minutes). A beep indicates the rinsing phase is complete. The button lights up.36
