water from the steam nozzle for a few
seconds.
3 When using the appliance for the first
time, at least 4-5 cups of coffee need
to be made before the appliance starts
to yield satisfactory results.
7.1 Tips for making hotter coffee
• When you turn the appliance on, if
you want to make a short coffee
(less than 60 ml), use the hot rinse-
through water to preheat the cups.
• Set a higher coffee temperature in
the corresponding menu; see „Set-
ting the coffee temperature“,
page 47.
• If you have not dispensed coffee for
a long period of time with the
machine switched on, you should
rinse the system before dispensing
again, to pre-heat the brewing unit.
Select the rinsing function in the
corresponding menu (see „Running
the rinsing program“, page 42). Run
off the water into the underlying
drip tray, or alternatively use this
water to fill (and then empty) the
cup to be used for the coffee, so as
to pre-heat the cup.
• Unless they have been pre-heated,
do not use cups that are too thick, as
they will absorb too much heat.
• Use cups that have been pre-heated
by rinsing them with hot water or by
leaving them for at least 20 minutes
on the heated cup rack (H) with the
coffee machine on.
7.2 Running the rinsing program
The rinsing program allows the brew-
ing unit and dispenser to be heated up.
The rinsing process takes only few
seconds.
