2. PREPARING THE APPLIANCE

Wash all accessories with warm water and washing-up liquid, then proceed as follows:

1. Insert the drip tray (A19) complete with cup grille (A16)

and relative support (A17) (g. 1);

2. Extract the water tank (A7) (g. 2) and ll with fresh clean

water, taking care not to exceed the MAX level (g. 3).

3. Put the tank back in the appliance.

Important: Never operate the appliance without water in the tank or without the tank. Please note: You should customise water hardness as soon as possible following the instructions in section “7. Settings menu”.

3. SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

1. Plug into the mains socket. Press the main switch (A1) (g.

2. Place a container with a minimum capacity of 100 ml under

automatically. Empty the container. Before using the coee maker, the internal circuits of the ma- chine must be rinsed. Proceed as follows:

4. Place the coee lter (C3) or (C4) in the lter holder (C1)

5. Attach the lter holder (C1) complete with lter to the appli-

ance. To attach correctly, align the lter holder handle with "INSERT" (g. 7), then turn the handle to the right until it is aligned in the "CLOSE" position;

6. Place a container under the lter holder and steam wand

8. When delivery has nished, press the steam button (B9)

(g. 8) and deliver steam for a few seconds to rinse the steam circuit. For best results, repeat 3 or 4 times. The pur- pose of this procedure is to purge any water from the circuit before using steam to prepare a beverage. The appliance is ready for use. Please note: We also recommend rinsing the internal circuits if the appliance is not used for a long period. The rst time you use the appliance, you need to make 4-5 cups of coee before the appliance starts to give satisfactory results. Pay particular attention to the quantity of pre-ground coee17 in the lter ((C3) or (C4)) (see instructions in section “4.1 Step

Proceed as described in section “The “perfect dose””.

1. Put coee beans in the container (A3) (g. 9). It is best to

grind only a quantity of beans sucient for immediate use, so that the coee will always be fresh.

2. The default grinding setting is 5 (medium ground). If this is

too ne or too coarse, adjust the level according to personal taste and the type of coee used (adjust only when the cof- fee mill is in operation (g. 10). Please note: A grinding level between 3 and 6 is rec- ommended for most coees. Grinding with 1 or 2 select- ed produces a very ne result. Use only with very spe- cial coee (light roast) or when you notice non-optimal coee quality due to wear of the burrs (grinding too coarse).

3. Place one of the coee lters (C3) or (C4) in the lter holder

(C1). Press (B5) to select preparation of 1 or 2 cups. This also doubles the quantity of espresso delivered.

4. Set the quantity by adjusting the dial (B4), starting from

the minimum position (g. 11). The rst time you use it, leave the dial in the Min. position. In the beginning, it is normal to make a few attempts before nd- ing the optimal setting. We suggest you start with the default values, then modify them if necessary following the suggestions in section “Adjusting the quantity of ground coee in the lter”.

5. Attach the dosing and tamping guide (C2) to the lter hold-

7. Press the lter holder until you hear a “click” (g. 14), then

release. Grinding starts and stops automatically. Please note: To manually stop grinding, just press the lter holder again (until you hear a click). Adjusting the quantity of ground coee in the lter

Dierent varieties of coee bean give dierent results when ground: consequently, the initial adjustment of the dosage re- quires special care. This illustration shows how to regulate the dosage, based on the roast colour: this should be taken as a general guide, given that in practice, the nal adjustment can vary according to the com- position of the beans.

1. Set the quantity (to the raised mark inside the coee lter),

starting from the minimum position. The numbers on the dial are a handy reference to note down once the quantity in the lter is ideal. The numbers do not correspond to the coee mill settings, measurement units (g/oz) or grinding time.

2. Looking at the roast colour of your particular beans, turn

the dial slowly to nd the right adjustment.

2. Tap the dosing and tamping guide (C2) to level the ground

3. (Certain models only): rest the lter holder in the housing

5. Remove the dosing and tamping guide by turning it anti-

clockwise and pulling upwards (g. 18) and check that the quantity is correct (see “The “perfect dose””).

6. Attach the lter holder to the coee outlet (A10) (g. 19).

Please note: Coee left on the edges of the lter after pressing does not in any way compromise the quality of the brewing and therefore the end result. The “perfect dose”

• The perfect quantity corresponds to the raised line inside the coee lters; Extra grinding range18 The “perfect dose”

• Make sure the coee is at the right level after tamping. It might be necessary to adjust the level a few times using the dial (B4) before the ideal dosage is achieved.

• If the coee is extracted too strongly or too weakly even at the ideal dosage, this can be corrected by grinding the beans more nely or more coarsely (see “4.1 Step 1 - Grinding”). To correct over-extraction (coee released too slowly), select a coarser setting. To correct under-extraction (coee released too quickly), select a ner setting.

4.3 Step 3 - Brewing

1. Select the temperature (g. 20) (see “Coee preparation

2. Select the desired beverage (g. 21). If the beverage has

been programmed (see section “6. Programming beverage quantities”), the beverage light ashes briey.

3. Press OK (B6) to start brewing (g. 22) (pre-infusion and

infusion). Delivery of the coee will stop automatically. Coee preparation temperature The water temperature is controlled during the entire prepa- ration process to ensure its stability during the extraction step. The Specialista Arte has 3 infusion temperatures* in a range between 92 and 96 °C. The temperature eectively utilized will depend typically on the variety of been and the roast: Robusta beans require a lower temperature, and Arabica beans a higher temperature. The same applies for dark roasted beans or for light roasted beans, respectively. Temperature level Corresponding indicator light Roast colour MIN Dark MED Medium-dark MAX Light - medium

• This is the temperature of the water in the thermoblock. It is therefore not the temperature of the beverage in the cup or the temperature of the beverage at the moment of release from the outlets of the lter holder.

5. MAKING MILK BEVERAGES

5.1 Frothing the milk

1. Fill the jug (C8) with the amount of milk to be warmed/

frothed, bearing in mind that the milk doubles or triples in volume (g. 23). For a denser and more evenly distributed froth, best results will be achieved using whole cow’s milk at refrigerator temperature (about 5 °C).

2. Place the jug under the steam wand and press the steam

button (B9) (g. 24).

3. To froth the milk, rest the steam wand (A9) on the surface

of the liquid. This mixes air with the milk and steam.

4. Keep the steam wand in contact with the surface, taking

care not to let in too much air and create excessively large bubbles.

5. Immerse the steam wand below the surface of the milk,

this creates a vortex in the liquid. Once the milk is heated to the desired temperature, press the steam button again and wait for the ow of steam to stop completely before removing the milk jug from the machine. Barista tips:

• Fresh milk is best. Always use fresh milk straight from the fridge.

• For best results, always replace the milk jug in the fridge when not in use.

• Whole milk ensures optimum results. The appearance and texture of froth depending on the nature of the dairy milk or vegetable beverages utilized.

• After frothing the milk, eliminate unwanted bubbles by swirling the jug gently. Cleaning the steam wand

1. Following use, always wipe the steam wand (g. 25) with a

cloth to remove residual deposits of milk. The recommend- ed procedure for in-depth cleaning is to use Eco MultiClean: this product ensures maximum hygiene by removing milk proteins and fats, and can be used for cleaning the entire machine.

2. Release steam for a few seconds to clean the wand (g. 8).19

3. Wait until the steam wand has cooled down. To ensure the

wand works eciently over time, use the special cleaning tool (C10) to free the holes (g. 26) of any obstruction.

6. PROGRAMMING BEVERAGE QUANTITIES

1. Prepare the appliance to deliver 1 or 2 cups of the beverage

you want to make, as far as attaching the lter holder (C1) complete with the (C3) or (C4) lter and ground coee.

2. Turn the dial (B8) to select the beverage being programmed.

3. Press and hold the OK button (B6) until the machine deliv-

ers the desired quantity. The OK button light ashes orange to conrm you are in programming mode.

4. When the desired quantity has been reached, release the

OK button. The quantity is programmed. Please note:

• You can programme beverages, but not steam delivery.

• Programming changes the quantity of beverage delivered, but not the quantity of ground coee

• When a programmed beverage is selected, the corresponding light ashes briey.

• “2x” beverages can be programmed separately. Coee recipe Default quantity Programmable quantity ≃ 35 ml from ≃15 to ≃90 ml

8. CLEANING THE APPLIANCE

• Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean the coee machine.

• Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coee deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

• Should the machine remain idle for more than a week, it is advisable to carry out a rinse cycle before preparing any beverages. Danger!

• Never immerse the coee maker in water when cleaning: it is an electrical appliance.

• Before commencing any cleaning operation on the outside of the machine, turn it o, unplug it from the mains socket and wait for it to cool down.

1. Clean the attachment area with the brush (C9) (g. 27).

2. Use the brush to clean the coee guide (g. 28).

Ecient grinding The burrs are subject to wear over time. As time goes by, to achieve the perfect quantity, you need to turn the dial (B4) towards the highest numbers. When you reach a setting of be- tween 30 and 40, you need to set the extra grinding range (see section “7. Settings menu” - “Extra grinding range”). When the quantity of ground coee becomes less than expect- ed, contact a service centre to have the burrs replaced. With the new burrs tted, adjust the coee mill by accessing the settings menu and selecting the rst range of the “extra grinding adjust- ment” setting. Next, turn the ground coee quantity dial (B4) to the Min position and set the quantity as for rst-time use (see “La “dose perfetta””).

The descale light (B3) comes on following a predetermined period of operation that depends on a water hardness setting. The machine can also be programmed according to the actual hardness of the local water supply, in which case descaling may be required less frequently (see section “7. Settings menu”).

2. Immerse the paper completely in a glass of water for about

3. Remove the strip from the water and shake lightly (g. 30).21

11. HOW TO USE SOFTBALLS CERTAIN MODELS

ONLY Softballs (C7) are an innovative treatment system that prolongs the life of the machine, without altering the properties of the water, while ensuring consistently creamy and aromatic coee. To optimize the eectiveness of the treatment, leave Softballs in the water overnight before use.1. Take the sachet of Softballs from the wrapper (g. 31).2. Rinse the sachet of Softballs under running water (g. 32).3. Immerse the sachet in the water tank (A7) (g. 33).

4. Change the sachet of Softballs every 3 months (g. 34).

Important! • Before using the descaler, (C6)read the instructions and the labelling on the pack.• Use De’Longhi descaler only. Using unsuitable descaler and/or performing descaling incorrectly may result in faults not covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee.• Descaler can cause damage to delicate surfaces. If the prod-uct is accidentally spilt, dry immediately.To descaleDescaler De’Longhi descalerContainer Capacity 2 litresTime ~40min
