• 30 • ADJUSTMENTS The machine that you have bought allows for certain adjustments that will permit you to use it to its full potential. Gaggia Adapting System Coffee is a natural product and its characteristics may change according to its origin, blend and roast. The Gaggia coff ee machine is equipped with a self-adjusting system that allows the use of all types of coff ee beans available on the market (non caramelized). • The machine automatically adjusts itself in order to optimise the extraction of the coffee, ensuring perfect compression of the tablet to obtain a creamy espresso coff ee that will release all the aromas, regardless of the type of coff ee used. • The optimisation process is a learning process that requires the brewing of a certain number of coff ees to allow the machine to adjust the compactness of the ground coff ee. • Attention should be given to special blends, which require grinder adjustments in order to optimise the extraction of the coff ee (see the “Coff ee Grinder Adjustment” section). Coff ee Grinder Adjustment Warning! The grinder adjustment knob, inside the coff ee bean hopper, must be turned only when the grinder is working. Do not pour ground and/or instant coff ee into the coff ee bean hopper. Do not insert any material other than coff ee beans into the hopper. The grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Therefore, do not insert fi ngers and/ or other objects. The grind setting may only be adjusted using the knob. Turn off the machine and unplug it from the socket before carrying out any type of operation inside the coffee bean hopper. Do not pour coff ee beans when the coff ee grinder is working. “INTENZA” water fi lter. To improve the quality of the used water, it is advisable to install the water fi lter. Remove the water filter from its packaging, immerse it vertically (with the opening positioned upwards) in cold water and delicately press the sides so as to let the air bubbles out. Remove the small white filter from the tank and store it in a dry place sheltered from dust. Set the Intenza Aroma System as specifi ed on the box. A = Soft water B = Medium water (standard) C = Hard water Put the water fi lter into the empty tank. Press it until its limit stop. Fill the tank with fresh drinking water and reinsert it into the machine. Dispense the water in the tank by using the hot water function (see the “Hot water dispensing” section). Fill the water tank again. The machine is now ready to be used. Note: If there is no Intenza water fi lter, insert the small white fi lter previously removed into the water tank. • 31 • English At this point the button “ “ is programmed; each time it is pressed and released, the machine will brew the same amount of coff ee that was just programmed. The same operation can be repeated for the “ “ button. If the “ “ or “ “ button is pressed twice to brew coffee, the machine will brew double the stored quantity. Standby The machine is designed for energy saving. The machine automatically turns off after 60 minutes of inactivity. The “ “ button blinks when the machine is in stand-by mode. Note: During the turning off phase, the machine performs a rinse cycle, if a coff ee product has been brewed.
