“Aroma” Adjustment
The machine is set-up for an amount of
co ee to grind to be adjusted from 7 g to
10.5 g per co ee.
Four choices are possible by pressing and
releasing the “
“ button (mild, medi-
um or strong aroma, and ground co ee).
Selection can be made when the beans
appear on the display.
Each time the “
“ button is pressed
and released, the aroma changes by one
degree:
= Mild aroma
= Medium aroma
= Strong aroma
Selection must be made prior to selecting
the co ee. The system sets the aroma ac-
cording to the personal taste of the user.
After selecting “Strong aroma”, the func-
tion for brewing co ee with pre-ground
co ee is displayed.
This selection is displayed by the icon on
the side.
Refer to the relevant section to use this
function.

brew co ee, make sure that
the water tank contains water.
