Carry out a long rinse2 Dear Customer, Thank you for having purchased this Krups Espresseria Automatic. We are sure you will enjoy both the quality of the coffee it makes and how easy it is to use. Whether you want a short, strong shot of a ristretto, a good espresso, a bigger and milder lungo, or a creamy cappuccino, your automatic coffee / espresso machine has been designed so you can enjoy the same quality at home as at the bistro, whatever the time of day and right through the week. Thanks to its Thermoblock System, its 15 bar pump and because it uses real coffee beans that are ground just before the coffee is made, your Espresseria Automatic will give you a drink containing maximum aroma, with a fine creamy golden brown top produced by the natural oils contained in coffee beans. Drink your espresso from small porcelain cups rather than the usual coffee cup or mug. To obtain an espresso at just the right temperature and a nice compact creamy top, we advise you to pre-heat your cup. After a few trial runs you will find the type of mix and roast of the coffee beans that suits your taste. The quality of the water used is obviously another essential factor in the coffee you make. Make sure the water has come fresh out of the tap (contact with the air tends to make it stagnate), that it is free from chlorine odours and is cold. Espresso coffee is richer in aroma than a conventional filter coffee. Despite its stronger, longer-lasting taste, espresso in fact contains less caffeine than filter coffee (about 60 to 80 mg per cup as compared with 80 to 100 mg per cup). This is due to the shorter percolation time. Due to the visibility of the containers and its automatic cleaning and scale removal programs, your Espresseria Automatic is extremely easy to use. Important: Safety instructions Read the instructions for use carefully before first using your appliance and keep them for reference: Incorrect use of the appliance will release KRUPS from any responsibility. Place on a flat, stable, heat-resistant worksurface. Connect the appliance only to an earthed mains socket. Check that the power supply voltage shown on the appliance’s rating plate corresponds to that of your electrical installation. Make certain not to place the appliance near sources of heat such as a hot-plate or use it close to a naked flame. Immediately take the plug out of the socket if you notice any problem during operation. Do not pull the power supply cord to remove the plug.

Disconnect the appliance as soon as you stop using if for a long period of time and when you clean it. All appliances are subject to stringent quality control. Practical tests using appliances taken at random are conducted and this may explain any slight marks showing prior to use. You are advised against using multiple plugs and/or extensions. Do not put water into the coffee bean container and/or under the servicing flap. Be careful of the direction of the steam nozzle as steam can cause scalding. Failure to ensure scale removal, cleaning and regular maintenance or the presence of foreign particles in the grinder will mean that the guarantee will be negated. Limits to use This Espresso machine must only be used to prepare espressos or coffee, to froth up milk and heat liquids. This product has been designed for domestic use only. Any commercial use, inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, the manufacturer accepts no responsibility and the guarantee will not apply. It is not designed for commercial or professional use. ENGLISHTo get the best taste from your coffee and extend your appliance’s service life, we advise you to use the Claris - Aqua Filter System cartridge sold as an accessory. It comprises a scale-removing substance and activated carbon that reduces chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides, etc. that are present in the water. Minerals and trace elements will then be preserved.

Before using the appliance for the first time or if you have noted a change in water hardness, it is advisable to adapt the appliance to the water hardness. To determine the water hardness, use the measuring stick delivered with your appliance or get in contact with your water authority.

After 1 minute the hardness measurement will appear (moderately hard water). Filter the water using the Claris- Aqua Filter System cartridge to reduce carbonate hardness by as much as 75 %* Chlorine – up to 85 %* Lead – up to 90 %* Copper – up to 95 %* Aluminium – up to 67 %* Installing the cartridge in the machine. On first use, screw the filter cartridge into the bottom of the water tank. The Claris cartridge needs to be replaced after about every 50 litres of water or every two months at least. Fill a glass with water and immerse a stick into it. Use filtered water, but not bottled mineral water. Mechanism to indicate the month the cartridge was fit- ted and when to replace it (after 2 months at most). Degree of hardness

Each time you plug your machine in, it will carry out an initialisation cycle. Pull out and fill the water tank. Put it back in place by pressing firmly and close the lid again. Open the coffee bean container lid. Add the coffee beans (250 g maximum). Close the coffee bean container lid again. Check that the coffee beans do not contain any foreign particles such as grit, as any damage caused by the presence of foreign particles will negate the warranty. Do not put water into the coffee bean container. Remember to fit the drip tray to avoid waste water flowing onto the work surface and staining it or scalding you. Check that your water tank is clean. Turn the appliance on by pressing the button. The light will flash during the pre-heating and initialisation cycle. Rinsing out the coffee circuit: Place a recipient of at least 0.5 L under the coffee and steam nozzles. Press the 'Service' button quickly to start a coffee circuit rinsing cycle, which will automatically stop after around 40 mL. You can choose the strength of your coffee by setting the coffee bean grinding fineness. The finer the grinding setting, the stronger and creamier the coffee should be. Set the desired fineness for grinding by tur- ning the ‘Grinding fineness setting’ knob. CHANGE THE SETTING DURING GRINDING. NEVER FORCE THE GRINDING FINENESS SETTING BUTTON It is recommended that you do not use oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee beans for this machine. These kinds of beans may damage the machine. NEVER PUT GROUND COFFEE IN THE COFFEE CONTAINER. Turn to the left for finer grind. Turn to the right for coarser grind. Do not fill the water tank with hot water, mineral water, milk or any other liquid. If you turn on the appliance when the water tank is not in place or not correctly filled (under the “min.” level,), the “fill water tank” light will come on and making an espresso or a cup of coffee will be made impossible.

PREPARING THE APPLIANCE

Rinsing out the steam circuit: Press the ’Service’ button for 3 seconds to start a steam circuit rin- sing cycle, which will automatically stop after around 300 mL.

The quantity of water for an espresso must be between 20 and 70 ml. Each time you plug your machine in, it will carry out an initialisation cycle. Press the button . The light will flash during the pre-heating and initialisation cycle. Select the key to get a strong espresso or the key to get a standard espresso. You have now prepared your appliance. The light will stay on. Put a cup under the coffee outlets. You can lower or raise the coffee outlets to suit the size of your cups.

PREPARING ESPRESSO AND LONG COFFEES

YOUR APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE COFFEE FROM COFFEE BEANS ONLY. When you first make coffee with the machine or after a long period of absence or a cleaning or scale removal procedure, a little steam and hot water will come out of the steam nozzle (priming). Splashing or scalding may occur if the coffee outlets are set too high in relation to the size of the cups. You can change the volume of water at any time. The ground coffee is moistened with a little hot water after the grinding stage. A few moments later, percolation as such starts. Beyond a certain amount of coffee in the cup, we recommend - in order to obtain a stronger coffee - to divide your preparation into two separate cycles. Example 2 x 70ml cycles for a cup of 140 ml. You can use your appliance to make 2 cups of coffee or espresso. Remember not to remove the cups after the first cycle. You have now prepared your appliance. The light will stay on. Put two cups under the coffee outlets. You can lower or raise the coffee outlets to suit the size of your cups. Select the key or key according to your choice, pressing twice rapidly in succession. The light will come on with a double flash to confirm that you have ordered 2 cups of coffee. If you first press the key and then the (or vice versa), the second action will not be taken into account. The appliance will automatically sequence 2 complete coffee-making cycles. To stop coffee flowing into the cup, you can either again press one of the or keys or turn the knob to the min. position. x 2 PREPARING AN ESPRESSO (FROM 20 TO 70 ML) 2-CUP FUNCTION DO NOT REMOVE THE WATER COMPARTMENT BEFORE THE END OF THE CYCLE (that is around 15 seconds after the coffee has finished dripping through). The quantity of water for a cup of coffee must be between 80 and 220 ml. PREPARING A CUP OF COFFEE (FROM 80 TO 220 ML) ENGLISH7 PREPARING STEAM Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids. As you need a higher temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an additional pre-heating phase for steam. Press the key . The light will flash while the appliance heats up. Once pre-heating has been completed, the light will remain on continuously and you can start producing steam by again pressing the key. Press the button again to stop the cycle FROTHING MILK We recommend that you use pasteurised or UHT milk that has been recently opened. Untreated milk does not give the best results. After the steam function has been used, the nozzle can be hot, and we recommend that you wait for a few moments before handling it. Check that the steam nozzle is correctly fitted. Pour the milk into your milk jug. Immerse the nozzle in the milk. Initiate the steam func- tion as explained in the paragraph above. ...again press the key to stop the cycle. Be careful, because the cycle does not stop imme- diately. To remove any remaining milk from the steam nozzle, place a receptacle under the nozzle and press the key. Let the steam escape for at least 10 seconds and then again press the key to stop the process. The steam nozzle can be removed for more intense cleaning. Wash it out with water and a little washing up liquid and a small non-abrasive brush. Rinse and dry it. Before putting it back, ensure that the air inlet holes are not blocked by any milk residues. If necessary, unblock them using the needle supplied. Do not wash the steam nozzle in the dishwasher. To interrupt the steam function, just press any key. Be careful as the nozzle may be hot. If the nozzle is blocked, unblock it using the needle supplied. The maximum duration for production of steam per cycle is limited to 2 minutes. SETTING UP THE AUTO-CAPPUCCINO XS 6000 (SOLD SEPARATELY) To prevent milk from drying on the auto-cappuccino accessory, it must be cleaned thoroughly. It is recommend that you wash it immediately by carrying out a cycle with steam and the accessory pot filled with water in order to clean the inside of the nozzle. To do so, you can use liquid cleaner XS4000, available as an accessory. XS 6000 Once your milk is frothy enough... Be careful, because the cycle does not stop immediately. Attach the various parts together. Select the cappuccino or caffe latte position on the special nozzle. Fill up the milk pot and place a cup or a glass underneath the auto- cappuccino nozzle. Press the button to start and then to stop the cycle Place your cup under the coffee out- lets and start a cof- fee / espresso cycle. This auto-cappuccino accessory makes it easier to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte.8 If the light comes on, remove, empty and clean the drip tray. The drip tray receives waste water and the coffee grounds collector receives used coffee grounds. The coffee cleaning tray allows you to eliminate any deposits of coffee grounds. Remove, empty and clean the coffee grounds collector. The drip tray is equipped with floats to tell you when to empty it. The light will remain on if the coffee grounds collector is not slotted in fully or not fitted correctly or if it has been put back in less than 4 seconds. You cannot make espresso or coffee while the light is on or is flashing. The coffee grounds collector has a maximum capacity of 14 coffees.

TROUBLESHOOTING, CORRECTIVE ACTIONS

The appliance does not turn on after I press the button. Water or steam are coming out of the steam nozzle unexpectedly. The espresso or coffee is not hot enough. The coffee is too weak or not strong enough. The coffee flows too slowly. The coffee is not creamy enough. The machine has not produced any coffee You used ground coffee instead of coffee beans. The grinder is making an unusual noise. The grinding fineness button is difficult to turn. Steam does not come out of the nozzle. Not enough froth on the milk. The milk froth is too bubbly. The Auto-Cappuccino accessory does not suck up the milk (accessory sold separately) The cleaning or descaling program will not start. After having filled the water tank, the light remains on. After having emptied the coffee grounds col- lector, the light remains on. A power failure occurred during a cycle. There is water or coffee under the appliance. The 4 red lights flash permanently. Check that the power supply cord plug is correctly inserted in the socket. If used often, some drops of water may run out of the steam nozzle. Change the coffee temperature setting. Heat the cups by rinsing them under hot water. Check that the coffee bean compartment contains coffee and that it is running through properly. Avoid using oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee beans. Reduce the volume you have selected using the knob. Select the button. Turn the fineness of grind button to the left to obtain a finer grind. Make your coffee in two separate cycles by using the 2 cup function. Turn the fineness of grind button to the right to obtain a coarser grind (may depend on the kind of coffee being used). Carry out one or more rinsing cycles. Turn the fineness of grind button to the left to obtain a finer grind. Remove the Claris cartridge. An incident has been detected during the coffee making process. The machine automatically re-initialises and is ready for a new cycle. Use your vacuum cleaner to remove the ground coffee in the coffee bean container. There is a foreign body in the grinder. Contact the Krups Consumer Service. Only adjust the grinder when it is operating. After having turned the machine off and left it to cool Clean and unblock all of the openings in the nozzle using the needle supplied (cf page 7). Unblock the opening of the steam nozzle support pipe using a needle. Remove the Claris cartridge. Check that the steam comes out of the nozzle, dry the little air inlet at the top of the nozzle if necessary. Use a cold recipient and recently opened milk. Possibly change the brand or type of milk (UHT or pasteurised). Check that the 2 ends of the small stainless steel tube in the flexible part of the steam nozzle are fitted together properly. Check that the tube that goes into the milk is not blocked. Check that the flexible tube is fitted tightly into the accessory to prevent air getting in. After having turned the machine off and left it to cool, unblock the outlet of the Auto-Cappuccino accessory. These programs are only possible when the machine requests them ('clean' or 'calc' light on). Check for correct positioning of the tank in the coffee maker.
