7 FALCON PICTO anglais USA.qxp 25/02/08 18:35 Page 6 WELCOME Congratulations and thank you for purchasing this Krups Espresseria Automatic espresso machine. We are confident you will enjoy the versatility of this machine as well as the convenience. Should you have any questions, please contact one of our specially trained consumer service managers. They are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 6:30 pm (EST) at for the US, and Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm (EST) at for Canada. ENGLISH We strongly recommend that you register this product as quickly as possible to ensure that the warranty program is validated. Please complete your respective countries enclosed registration card or for the USA register online at Enclosed in this box is the Krups VIP Exclusive Service Kit. Within this kit, we have included everything you need to get started. Each kit contains 1 packet of descaling powder, 2 cleaning tablets, water hardness testing strip, a full color instruction manual, and 1 Claris water filter. USING OILY BEANS There are a variety of coffee and espresso beans available in the market today. Some beans have a very dry roast while others can be quite oily. Oily beans may clump together, which could disrupt the flow of coffee into the grinder. The lack of a continuous flow of beans into the grinder can cause a weak or even no coffee at all. To ensure optimal results when using oily beans, simply stir the beans in the coffee hopper just prior to using your machine. If you freeze your beans (we do not recommend this type of storage, but rather keeping your beans in an airtight container in a cool dark place), please ensure you allow at least 4 hours for them to thaw before adding to the coffee bean hopper. Allowing frozen beans to properly thaw will prevent unnecessary moisture from entering into the grinder. Also, never use flavoured or other sugar-coated beans as they will stick to the burrs and clog your machine. RECIPES FRANÇAIS Cappuccino For a cappuccino, the ideal proportions are as follows: 1/3 steamed milk, 1/3 espresso, 1/3 milk froth. Caffe Latte To make coffee with milk, also often called Latte Macchiato, the proportions are as follows: 3/5 steamed milk, 1/5 espresso, 1/5 milk froth. For these milk-based preparations, it is best to use cold 1 or 2% milk milk straight from the refrigerator (ideally between 42.8 F/6 C and 46.4 F/10 C). ESPAÑOL LIMITS TO USE This Espresseria Automatic machine must only be used to prepare espresso, coffee, and froth milk. This product has been designed for household use only. Any commercial or professional use, inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions will void the warranty. 6

When you turn the machine on, it will automatically commence an initial rinsing cycle from the coffee outlets and the steam nozzle. MEASURING WATER HARDNESS Before using the machine for the first time or if you have noted a change in water hardness, it is advisable to adapt the machine to the water hardness. To determine the water hardness, use the measuring stick delivered with your machine or get in contact with your water authority sec.

This is called pre-brewing and it optimizes the brewing process by ensuring that the grounds are evenly wet. A few moments later, the full brewing cycle begins. To get a stronger long coffee, we recommend to divide by 2 the volume you wish and make run 2 cycles, e.g. 2 times 70 ml/2.4 oz to get a 140 ml/4 oz coffee. DO NOT TAKE OFF THE WATER TANK BEFORE THE END OF THE CYCLE (i.e. 15 sec. after coffee stops flowing).
