Please note

• The first time you use the coffee maker, you need to make 4-5 cups of coffee or 4-5 cappuccinos before it starts to give satisfactory results.

• The first time you use the machine, the water circuit is empty, and the appliance could be very noisy. The noise becomes less as the circuit fills.

• When making the first 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to hear the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise becomes less.

• To improve the performance of your appliance, we recommend installing a water softener filter. If your model is not provided with a filter, you can purchase one on delonghi.com.

Descaling alarm stays on after the cleaning cycle has finished

If a customer tries to descale their unit and at the end of the process the alarm is still active it is likely they did not do all the steps or the cycle was interrupted.

The descaling process is different on all machines. Refer to the manual for the model

NOTE: Descaling the unit and keeping it clean is very important to the unit's operation and longevity.

If the unit is not kept clean it is likely it will not continue to produce a great cup of coffee.

• Beans at times can be slightly oily and group together. Make sure you push the beans down towards the hopper and add more beans.

• The pre-ground coffee funnel is clogged.

Unit is showing “LESS COFFEE” alarm

• If you are using PRE GROUND COFFEE and get this alarm it may be because you added too much coffee. You are only to use one spoon per cup.
