This section explains how to use a milk
container for the preparation of cappuc-
cino or hot milk.
Note: Before using the milk
container, clean it thoroughly
as described in section "Cleaning and
Maintenance".
Note: The milk must be
stored in the refrigerator
and poured into the container only
when preparing a cappuccino. After
use, put the container back in the
refrigerator.
DO NOT store milk out of the refrigera-
tor for longer than 15 minutes.
Note: In order to ll the milk
container, remove it from
the machine.
The milk container must be filled
with whole milk at refrigerator
temperature.

WATER HARDNESS MEASUREMENT
The water hardness measurement is very
important in order to correctly manage
the “Intenza” lter and the frequency with
which the machine must be descaled.
Immerse the water hardness test strip
provided with the machine in water for
1 second.
Note: The test strip is only
valid for one measurement.
Check how many squares change colour
and refer to the table.
The letters correspond to the references
that are located in the base of the Intenza
lter. The lter must be adjusted based on
this measurement.
The numbers correspond to the settings
that are found for the water hardness ad-
justment that is shown in the program-
ming section.
More precisely:
1 = (very soft water)
2 = (soft water)
3 = (hard water)
4 = (very hard water)
Once this value is known, set the water
hardness value as specified in the pro-
gramming section.
3 Replace the suction pipe inside the
container and close the cover by press-
ing it to the end.
After that, the container may be used to
brew the desired beverages.
2 Fill the container with milk: Do not
exceed the MAX level indicated on the
container.

Milk, even UHT milk, goes bad easily at room temperature; therefore, it is recommended to DO
NOT keep it at room temperature for long periods. Furthermore, the milk carafe has always to be
put back in the fridge when it is not needed.
It is also advisable to keep the parts in contact with the milk cleaned following the directions and
recommendations described in these instructions.
Before entering the Stand-by mode, the machine automatical-
ly performs a short cleaning cycle in the milk brewing area.
Moreover, after brewing any kind of milk-based beverage, the
machine reminds the user to clean the parts that have been
in contact with the milk.
This warning does not block any function of the machine
and can be deleted by pressing the right lower button every
time it appears.
However, it is advisable to regularly clean the parts
of the machine in contact with the milk following
the instructions described in the "CLEANING OF THE
MILK BREWING SYSTEM" section of the manual.

Place a container under the dispensing spout and push the upper link button to start the cleaning operation. Then, bring the knob back
to the central position to allow other brewing programmes.
(It is recommended to perform this cleaning every time the milk carafe is removed, when the milk
system does not work properly or has milk deposits on it).
It is recommended to regularly clean the parts for brewing and frothing milk by dismounting both the parts
installed on the machine and those installed on the carafe.
Dismount the parts installed on the machine according to the instructions showed in the following gures:
PERIODIC CLEANING

PERIODIC CLEANING
Proceed as follows for the parts installed on the carafe.
• Remove the carafe from the machine.
• Lift the cover and pay attention that the wand does not splash the remaining milk.
• Remove the pin:
- Rotate it counter-clockwise.
- Take o the pin from the cover.
• Wash the cover and the carafe with lukewarm water.
• Wash the wand and the pin of the machine by running lukewarm water inside the duct.
• After rinsing and drying all components, assemble the pin on the cover:
- Place the pin into the cover.
- Turn it clockwise until it is locked.
Insert the wand in the cover FROM THE STRAIGHT-CUT END and place the cover over the
milk container.
These parts can also be washed in the dishwasher placing them in the cutlery
basket so that they do not get lost.

The machine that you have bought allows
for certain adjustments that will permit
you to use it to its full potential.
Saeco Adapting System
Coffee is a natural product and its char-
acteristics may change according to its
origin, blend and roast. The Saeco co ee
machine is equipped with a self-adjusting
system that allows the use of all types of
co ee beans available on the market (non
caramelised).
• The machine automatically adjusts
itself in order to optimise the extrac-
tion of the coffee, ensuring perfect
compression of the tablet to obtain a
creamy espresso co ee that will release
all the aromas, regardless of the type of
co ee used.
• The optimisation process is a learning
process that requires the brewing of a
certain number of co ees to allow the
machine to adjust the compactness of
the ground co ee.
• Attention should be given to special
blends, which require grinder adjust-
ments in order to optimise the extrac-
tion of the co ee - (see section Co ee
Grinder Adjustment).
Coff ee Grinder Adjustment
Warning! The grinder adjust-
ment knob, inside the co ee
bean hopper, must be turned only
when the grinder is working. Do not
pour ground and/or instant coffee
into the co ee bean hopper.
Do not insert any material
other than co ee beans into
the hopper. The grinder contains
moving parts that may be dangerous.
Therefore, do not insert ngers and/
or other objects. The grind setting
may only be adjusted using the knob.
Turn o the machine and unplug it
from the socket before carrying out
any type of operation inside the cof-
fee bean hopper. Do not pour co ee
beans when the coffee grinder is
working.
The machine allows slight adjustments to
the co ee grinder to adapt it to the kind
of co ee used.
To make any adjustment, press and turn
the knob inside the co ee bean hopper.
Press and turn the knob by one notch at
a time and brew 2-3 cups of coffee; this
is the only way to notice differences in
grind.
The reference marks inside the coffee
bean hopper indicate the grind setting.
There are 5 different grind settings to
choose from with the following refer-
ences:
Large Mark - Coarse Grind
Small Mark - Fine Grind.
Adjusting the Coff ee Length
The machine allows you to adjust the
amount of brewed coffee according to
your taste and/or the size of your cups.
Each time the “ ” or “ ” button is
pressed and released, the machine brews
a pre-set amount of co ee. This amount
may be reprogrammed to your taste. Each
button may be individually programmed
for a speci c brew setting.
As an example, the following procedure
describes the programming of the “ ”
button, which is normally associated with
espresso co ee.
• Place a cup under the dispensing
spout.

• From now on, press the button with
the “ ” icon each time the desired
amount of coffee is reached in the
cup.
At this point, the “ ” button is pro-
grammed; each time it is pressed and
released, the machine will brew the same
amount of co ee that has just been pro-
grammed.
Cappuccino Adjustment
The machine allows you to adjust the
amount of dispensed milk and co ee, in
order to obtain a cappuccino according to
your taste and/or the size of your cups.
Each time the “ ” button is pressed
and released, it is possible to brew a
programmed cappuccino according to
several pre-set parameters. The amount
of milk and co ee may be reprogrammed
to your taste.
After lling the milk container, place it in
the machine. Insert the container pin in
its seat.
Make sure the container is inserted up to
its limit.
Place the cup you use every day to enjoy
your cappuccino.
When the icon on the side appears, re-
lease the “ ” button. The machine is
warming up for the preparation of milk.
In this phase the machine grinds the de-
sired amount of co ee.
Once the machine is warmed up, the
brewing of hot milk starts.
The “ ” icon will appear on the display.
From now on, press the “ ” button
each time the desired amount of milk is
reached in the cup.
Once milk has been prepared, the ma-
chine starts brewing the co ee.
The “ ” icon will appear on the display.
