To fully benefit from the support that we offer, please register your product at www.philips.com/welcome. Read the separate safety booklet carefully before you use the machine for the first time and save it for future reference. To help you get started and to get the best out of your machine, we offer online support at www.philips.com/coffee-care. There are multiple versions of this semi-automatic espresso machine, which all have different features. Each version has its own type number. You can find the type number on the data label located on the bottom of the machine. 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. Before first use

1. Installing the bean hopper and filling the water tank

1 Check and ensure that the two arrows on the grinder align with each other (Fig. 1). 2 Check and ensure that the two "I" marks on the bean hopper base align with each other (Fig. 2). 3 Press downward the bean hopper, ensure that the lock symbol on the bean hopper aligns with the triangle symbol on the machine top (Fig. 3), and rotate the bean hopper clockwise (Fig. 4). 4 Rotate the bean hopper to select your desired coarseness (Fig. 5). The grinder and bean hopper are precision components, so avoid frequently removing them after installation. 5 Open the water tank lid, grip the top handle of the water tank, and lift it vertically to remove it (Fig. 6). 6 Remove the yellow sealing strip from the bottom of the water tank (Fig. 7). 7 Fill the water tank with room-temperature filtered water. The water level should be controlled below the "Max" mark on the water tank (Fig. 8). 8 Grip the top handle and place the water tank back onto the machine vertically. Close the water tank lid (Fig. 9).7 English The removed yellow sealing strip does not need to be reinstalled; you may discard it. For best coffee quality, we suggest to frequently change water in the water tank.

2. Switching on the machine for the first time

1 Put the plug in an earthed wall socket. 2 Make sure the hot water/steam knob is in the off position (Fig. 10). 3 Press the On/Off button (Fig. 11) to switch on the machine.

On/Off and Espresso buttons will light up. 4 Ensure that the steam wand is aligned with the hole of the drip tray (Fig. 12). 5 Press the Espresso button (Fig. 13) to flush.

Hot water will begin to flow out of the brewing head and the steam wand. 6 After the water stops dispensing, the On/Off button starts blinking and the machine will heat up. During the flushing the hot water/steam wand, portafilter may become hot. To avoid the risk of burns, let them cool down first. Making coffee Setting the grinder The coarseness of ground coffee significantly influences brewing dynamics, like the pressure and flow rate, and ultimately, the flavor of espresso. This machine offers 15 coarseness levels (1-15). The lower the grind setting, the finer the coffee beans are ground and the stronger the coffee. Adjustments may be needed for different beans with varying roast degrees, impacting the amount of ground coffee produced. For Espresso/Americano grinder levels 1-4 are recommended. For longer coffee recipes (e.g. Lungo) levels 5-10 are best (Fig. 5). Choosing the filter basket

Basket single/double cup dual wall: The supplied basket single/double cup dual walls (Fig. 14) allow you to brew an espresso with crema even when using the machine for the first time, and facilitate achieving the optimal pressure range.

Basket single/double cup single wall: The supplied basket single/double cup single walls (Fig. 15) are like those used in professional bar machines and require manual skills and experience. Allow for greater customization of your coffee, resulting in improved extraction, taste and consistency once you find the right setup. Grinding beans 1 Select a single or dual wall filter and install it into the portafilter.8 English

When changing the filter, you can easily pry off the installed filter with the edge of the other filter (Fig. 16). 2 Attach the powder ring onto the portafilter (Fig. 17). 3 Align the portafilter with the grinder bracket and push it horizontally (Fig. 18).

Use the Grind Amount knob to grind more or less beans 4 For automatic grinding, long press the Grinder button for three seconds to select 1x or 2x dose. Then press the Grinder button once again to start grinding. To stop the grinding process midway, simply press the Grinder button again. 5 For manual grinding, hold the portafilter with one hand and press and hold the portafilter into the bracket until the required amount of coffee is ground. It is recommended to use 12-14 grams of beans for a single cup, and 18-20 grams for double cups. You may use an electronic scale for precise control of the coffee amount. You can use the "Max" indication on the filter basket as a rough measure. Make sure the bean hopper is properly installed and locked before adding coffee beans and using the machine. Only roasted coffee beans are allowed in the bean hopper. Do not put raw coffee beans, coffee powder, instant coffee or other materials in the bean hopper, as it may damage the coffee machine. Pay attention to the maximum level of ground coffee during grinding and avoid clogging the ground coffee outlet (Fig. 19). Different beans may yield slightly different amounts of ground coffee in automatic grinding. You may need to adjust the grinding settings based on the actual brewing pressure for each type of bean (see 'Optimized brew'). When splattering of ground coffee visibly worsens, clean the grinding chute (see 'Cleaning the grinder and ground coffee outlet'). Tamping 1 Remove the portafilter from the grinder bracket. 2 Remove the powder ring from the portafilter (Fig. 20). 3 Position the portafilter on a countertop with its padded bottom to facilitate effortless tamping (Fig. 21). 4 Gently tap the portafilter several times to make the ground coffee distribute evenly in the filter basket (Fig. 22). 5 Use the calibrated tamper to tamp the ground coffee. Brewing Espresso 1 Insert the portafilter into the brewing head.

Align the portafilter with the "triangle" mark on the brewing head and place it upward inside the brewing head (Fig. 23). Then, rotate the portafilter counterclockwise to the center to lock it (Fig. 24).9 English 2 Press the Espresso or Double Espresso button to start brewing (Fig. 25). To stop dispensing before the machine is finished, press the button again. When the On/Off button indicator flashes, the machine is in the preheating mode and brewing cannot be started. When all button indicators are solid on, brewing can be started. After brewing is completed, there may be steam and pump noise above the drip tray. This is normal and indicates that the machine is depressurizing. When the brewing pressure is too high, the machine will stop dispensing coffee to maintain the desired coffee taste. At this time, the indicator keeps flashing. In such cases, brew coffee again. The Espresso volume is about 40 ml and Double Espresso volume about 80 ml by default. Brewing Americano An Americano is made by pouring hot water from the water spout over a shot of espresso. 1 Switch on the machine and wait until it is ready for use. 2 Place the preferred filter basket into the portafilter. 3 Grind coffee beans with the machine. 4 Use the calibrated tamper to tamp the ground coffee. 5 Put the portafilter into the brewing head and align the portafilter with the "triangle" mark and place it upward inside the brewing head (Fig. 23). Then, rotate the portafilter counterclockwise to the center to lock it (Fig. 24). 6 Place a large cup under the spout openings of the portafilter and the hot water spout (Fig. 26). 7 Press the Americano button to start brewing. 8 After the Espresso shot has finished brewing, hot water will be poured on top from the water spout to finish the americano. The hot water spout may become hot. To avoid the risk of burns, let it cool down first. Optimized brew Pressure is an important factor for brewing espresso. The pressure gauge indicates the pressure and helps to monitor the optimal extraction of your espresso shots.

The optimal range marked by the solid white line represents the best pressures for extraction.

The range marked by the dotted line on the left represents under-extraction.

The range marked by the dotted line on the right represents over-extraction.10 English The pressure is affected by different bean brands, degrees of roast and freshness of coffee beans, so you may need to test different coarseness levels, amounts of ground coffee and tamping pressure to achieve the optimal pressure range. It is recommended to re-adjust the grind parameters based on the pressure gauge status each time you use different type of coffee beans.11 English Optimal extraction Under-extraction Over-extraction - Steady flow - Rich and velvety crema - Balanced flavor - 20-30 seconds of brewing time - Fast flow - Thin and pale crema - Sour and weak flavor - Less than 20 seconds of brewing time

- Dripping or no flow - Dark and uneven crema - Bitter or burnt taste - More than 40 seconds of brewing time After extraction Solution Solution - To remove used grinds, used grinds will form a coffee 'puck'. If the puck is wet, refer to the 'Under-extraction' section. - To clean the brewing head, press the Espresso button to release hot water to thoroughly clean the brewing head, portafilter and filter basket (see 'Cleaning the portafilter, filter basket and brewing head'). - First, adjust the coarseness level (to a smaller number). - Then, increase the amount of ground coffee using the Grind amount knob. - First, adjust the coarseness level (to a higher number) - Then, reduce the amount of ground coffee using the Grind Amount knob.12 English Customizing default volumes 1 Install the portafilter with tamped ground coffee inside the brewing head. 2 Press and hold the button of the drink you want to customize. After three seconds, the machine enters the customization mode and emits a beep. 3 Stop holding the buttons when the cup contains the desired volume. The setting is complete when you hear one beep from the machine. 4 After you have programmed the volume for a drink, the machine will dispense this new volume each time you select the drink again. Press and hold the Americano button to extract the desired coffee volume. Release to set the new coffee volume. Repeat for water volume adjustment. The minimum Espresso and Double Espresso volumes are 20 ml and 40 ml, respectively. The maximum Espresso and Double Espresso volumes are 70 ml and 120 ml, respectively. For Americano, the minimum and maximum volume of coffee is 20 ml and 70 ml respectively. The minimum and maximum volume of hot water is 50 ml and 200 ml respectively. Customizing coffee temperature It is possible to adjust the coffee extraction temperature. You can choose from three settings: warm coffee, medium hot coffee, hot coffee. At a higher coffee extraction temperature, the bitterness of the coffee will increase and the acidity will decrease. At a lower coffee extraction temperature, the bitterness of the coffee will decrease and the acidity will increase. 1 Turn off the the machine. 2 Press and hold the On/Off button and the Espresso button for three seconds. The machine will emit a beep sound. 3 Press one of the buttons below to adjust the coffee extracting temperature setting to your preferred level.

After this time, you will hear three 'beeps,' and the On/Off and the Americano buttons will flash three times. After each of these three resets, the machine will go to standby-ready mode. Making milk froth Always use milk coming directly from the fridge for the best foam quality. 1 Fill a milk jug with about a quarter of milk (100 ml) for cappuccino and to about a third (150 ml) of milk for latte macchiato (Fig. 27). 2 Make sure that the end of the steam wand is 3 cm below the milk surface and that the milk jug is tilted (Fig. 28). 3 Turn the hot water/steam knob to the steam icon (Fig. 29).

Steam will begin to flow out of the steam wand. For an optimal frothing result, do not shake the milk jug and do not hold the milk jug upright (Fig. 30). 4 When the milk foam in the milk jug has reached the required volume and temperature, turn the hot water/steam knob to the off position to stop frothing milk (Fig. 10). The steam wand becomes very hot during working. Allow it to cool down before touching it. Clean the steam wand each time you use it with a damp cloth, for hygiene reasons and to avoid the build-up of milk residues. Making hot water 1 Place a cup under the steam wand. 2 Rotate the knob to the hot water position to turn on hot water. At this time, the steam/hot water light is on. 3 To stop the hot water flow, rotate the steam/hot water knob to the off position. The steam wand becomes very hot during working. Allow it to cool down before touching it.14 English Descaling When the descale light is on, it is time to descale your coffee machine. Under no circumstances should sulfuric, hydrochloric, aminosulfonic or acetic acid (vinegar) based descaler be used, as this may damage the water circuit in the coffee machine and may not completely remove limescale. Failure to use Philips descaler will void the warranty. Failure to descale the machine will also void the warranty. The descaler is not supplied with the machine. You can purchase Philips descaler from a local supplier or online store (www.philips.com/coffee-care). The descaling procedure includes one descaling cycle (≈ 4 minutes) and one rinsing cycle (≈ 3 minutes). Descaling procedure 1 Turn on the coffee machine. 2 Remove the drip tray, empty water in it and put it back. 3 Remove the water tank and empty water in it. 4 Pour the Philips descaler (CA6700) into the water tank, and fill it to the descale level (descale icon printed on the water tank). 5 Reinsert the water tank, and position a large bowl (≥1.2 L) under the brewing head and steam wand for liquid collection (Fig. 31). 6 Initiate descaling by simultaneously pressing the Espresso and Double Espresso buttons for three seconds, acknowledging the beep. 7 Let the machine dispense descaler. Once finished, the machine will power off automatically. 8 Remove the water tank and clean any remaining descaler solution by rinsing it with fresh water. 9 Refill the water tank to the max level indicated on it with fresh water. 10Reposition the large bowl under the brewing head and steam wand for water collection. 11Press the On/Off button.
