DESCRIPTION

The terminology below will be used repeatedly in the following pages.
A Thermostat
B Power selector
C/D/E Power indicator lights (MIN, MED, MAX)
F Timer
G Cord holder
H Wheel

USE

Fitting the wheels

Turn the radiator upside down on a rug or soft surface to prevent damaging the paint finish. Fully unfold the wheels by turning them outwards (Fig. 1). Turn the radiator back to its upright position.

Caution
Always operate the heater in upright position only (wheels on the bottom, controls on top).
Any other position could create a hazardous situation.
Location
The heater should not be placed immediately below a power outlet. Do not use this radiator in rooms with a floor area of less than 4 m2 (43 sq. ft. ).
Connection

  • Before using the appliance check that your supply voltage is the same of that shown on the rating label of the unit and that the power socket and power supply line correspond to the load specified.
  • Check also the current capacity of your fuses. CONNECT YOUR HEATER TO EARTH PROVIDED SOCKET ONLY.
  • This appliance complies with directive 2004/108/ec on electromagnetic compatibility.

Keep loose clothing or bedding, furniture and flammable material away from the heater’s wall outlet.

Turning on

Insert the plug into an electrical outlet, rotate the thermostat knob to maximum and turn the unit on as follows using the power selector:

  • Turn the power selector to position MIN to select minimum output (the min light will be on).
  • Turn the power selector to position MED to select medium output (the min/med light will be on).
  • Turn the power selector to position MAX to select maximum output (the lights will be on).
Adjusting the thermostat

When the room has reached the * desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob slowly in an anti-clockwise direction until you hear a “click” and not beyond it. The thermostat will then adjust the set temperature automatically and keep it constant. If your unit is a three-output version, in intermediate seasons or on days when temperatures are not particularly cold, select minimum output to optimize savings and consumption.

Antifreeze function

Turn the thermostat dial to the position and the power selector to position MAX. The appliance will maintain a minimum room temperature of approximately 5°C, thus preventing freezing while conserving energy. In models that come with a timer, tabs must be set in the inward position.

Reminder

To completely shut the appliance off, turn the power selector to the “0” position and then unplug the appliance from the outlet.

UNITS WITH TIMER

How to use the timer

To program heating, proceed as follows:

  • Look at the time on your clock or watch. If it is 10 p.m., turn the numbered timer disk clockwise until the number 22 (10 p.m.) on the disk coincides with the pointer (3) on the timer. Set the periods of time when you want the appliance to work by pushing the teeth (1) inward. Each tooth (1) corresponds to a period of 15 minutes.
    This will leave visible sectors which correspond to the periods of operation (2). When set, the radiator will operate automatically each day during the times programmed (important: the radiator must always be plugged into the socket).
  • To change the programming, move the teeth back into the initial position and set the new periods of operation.
  • To turn the appliance off completely, as well as turning the knob to the off position, you must also unplug it from the power outlet to avoid continued operation of the timer.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT ROTATE CLOCK DIAL COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
The timer is like an electric clock, and will only work when plugged into a power supply. When unplugged, the timer stops and must be later re-set.

Timer override

If you wish to override the timer settings, push the timer switch to position I (fig.2) manual (timer override). To return to timed operation push the switch back to the middle position (fig.2).
NOTE: if the timer switch is at the 0 position (fig. 2), the heater is off and will not operate).

Safety device

A safety device shuts the radiator down in the case of overheating. To start the radiator up again, contact Customer Experience. See enclosed guarantee leaflet.

Maintenance and service/Troubleshooting

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Always unplug the heater from the power outlet and allow the radiator to cool.
Wipe radiator with a soft damp cloth; do not use detergents or abrasives. Should the radiator not be in use over a certain length of time, wind the cord around the holder and store it in a dry place. This appliance has been built to last for many years of trouble-free service. In case of malfunction or doubt, do not try to repair the heater by yourself: this might increase the risk of fire and electric shock. Please refer to the enclosed guarantee leaflet for service and assistance details.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: CAUSE: SOLUTION

The appliance doesn’t work:

  • Be sure it is plugged in and that the electrical outlet is working.
  • Check for any obstruction.
  • The temperature may be set too low:
  • Plug into the power outlet.
  • Remove the obstruction and let the appliance cool down. If the appliance doesn’t work please contact Customer Experience.
  • Set the temperature to a higher position.

Electrical requirements

Before using this appliance ensure that the voltage indicated on the product corresponds with the main voltage in your home, if you are in any doubt about your supply contact your local electricity company.
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13 amp capacity.
Should this plug not fit the socket outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug, following the procedure outlined below.
Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket – with the obvious consequent danger.
Please note: We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be switched off when the machine is not in use.
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code:

As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

  • The wire which is colored green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or colored green or green and yellow.
  • The wire which is colored blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or colored black.
  • The wire which is colored brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or colored red

When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size.
After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The color of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the colored insert in the base of the fuse recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this color when ordering a replacement fuse cover. Only 13 amp replacement fuses which are asta approved to B.S. 1362 should be fitted.
This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the suppression of radio interference.
Warning – this appliance must be earthed

CLEANING

Before cleaning or maintenance, turn the appliance off by using the button, then unplug from the outlet.

CLEANING THE CABINET

You should clean the appliance with a slightly damp cloth then dry with a dry cloth. For safety reasons, never wash the air conditioner with water. Precautions
Never use petrol, alcohol or solvents to clean the appliance. Never spray insecticide liquids or similar.

CLEANING THE BIO SILVER AIR FILTER (If fitted)

If the filter is dirty, air circulation is compromised and the efficiency of the appliance decreases.
It is therefore good practice to clean the filter at regular intervals. The frequency depends on the duration and conditions of operation. If the unit is used constantly or systematically, you are recommended to clean the filter once a week.
The filter is housed in the intake grille.Remove the grille to access the filter. To clean the filter, it will need to be extracted as shown in fig. 9.

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust deposited on the filter. If it is very dirty, submerge it into warm water and rinse it several times. The water temperature must be kept below 104° F (40°C). After washing the filter, allow it to dry completely before repositioning it.
The BioSilver filter helps capture dust and pollen and helps reduce the growth of bacteria and mold on the filter.

CHECKS AT THE START OF THE SEASON

Make sure the power cable and socket are in perfect condition and make sure the grounding system is sufficient. Comply strictly with the installation standards.

END OF SEASON OPERATIONS

To drain all water from the circuit, remove the cap A11 from the drainage on the back of the appliance and allow the water to drain out into a basin (fig. 10).
To facilitate this operation, at the start of the season, it’s possible to apply the water drain hose with cap B8.
In order to properly storage the appliance at the end of the season, we suggest you cover it with the supplied end of season dust cover B10 and you put the accessories in the relevant
end of season accessories bag B11.

When the appliance is empty, replace the cap.
Clean the filter and dry thoroughly before putting back. Unit should be stored in large, well ventilated area.

Lt/ Ht /P /HL

the appliance has a self-diagnosis system that identifies some operating errors refer to the SELF-DIAGNOSIS chapter

What is the difference between the DeLonghi PACEL376HGRFK and the DeLonghi PACEL376HG?

The DeLonghi PACEL376HGRFK is designed to cool a room up to 350 square feet, while the DeLonghi PACEL376HG is designed to cool a room up to 300 square feet.

Does this air conditioner have a remote control?

Yes, it does.

How do I clean the air conditioner?

You can clean the air conditioner by wiping it down with a damp cloth.

How do I know when my air conditioner needs to be serviced?

If your air conditioner is not cooling as well as it used to, or if you hear strange noises coming from it, contact a professional for servicing.

What are some of the features of this air conditioner that make it so unique?

This air conditioner has an easy-to-use remote control, and it also has an automatic restart function in case of power failure. It also has a sleep mode that allows you to set your desired temperature and have the fan run for eight hours at that temperature. This feature allows you to fall asleep without worrying about waking up too hot or too cold. It also has three speeds for the fan and three modes for cooling. The three modes are auto, dry, and cool. The auto mode automatically selects the best mode based on your desired temperature and humidity level. The dry mode removes excess moisture from the air while cooling, which helps prevent mold and mildew growth in your home or office space. Lastly, the cool mode simply cools your space without removing excess moisture from the air.

Are DeLonghi portable air conditioners good?

The DeLonghi PAC A120E is a good air conditioner, and cools well. Although it does not take our 1000sq ft. living area down to “cold” temperatures, it will hold it at a nice 22c when it is 30+c outside. We have had our first one for 2 summers, and it is still working well.

Do portable air conditioners use a lot of electricity?

How Much Electricity Does A Portable Air Conditioner Use? Mid-sized portable air conditioners use an average of 2900 watts per hour. Particularly large units can exceed the electricity usage of even central air conditioners, expending about 4100 watts per hour

How does the DeLonghi Pinguino work?

Pinguino De’Longhi uses the moisture which has been removed. Moisure (or even condensed water) is sprayed onto the condenser to accelerate the cooling process. This increases the performance. The condensed water, now in the form of steam, is taken out through the tube.

How often should I drain my portable air conditioner?

Depending on the humidity in your space, you will need to drain your portable air conditioner as often as every 8 hours. However, you usually won’t need to drain your portable air conditioner this often. If you live in a dry area, then you will rarely need to drain your portable air conditioner.

Does DeLonghi Pinguino need water?

The virtuous cycle of cooling is unique to the De’Longhi Pinguino. High levels of efficiency and effectiveness are achieved through the use of water, delivering optimised performance with lower energy consumption.

Is it worth buying a portable air conditioner?

Portable air conditioners can be remarkably convenient for many homeowners and renters, and they are an affordable way to bring a little cool air into your living space. They can also be a lifesaver if your regular air conditioner is broken — you can get them up and running quickly while you wait for repairs.

Why is my DeLonghi Pinguino not cooling?

Delonghi Portable Air Conditioner Not Blowing Cold Air (Not Cooling Room) In most cases, the problem is the filter needs washing and is clogged. If you have time, you can try to take it out and clean. If not, then you should seek professional help to clean it.

The same symbols are also used in the Quick Guide provided with the product.

SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

  •  The instructions for setting up the appliance are given in the QUICK GUIDE.
  •  When using the machine for the first time, 4-5 coffees will need to be made before it starts giving satisfactory results.
  •  The first time you use the machine, the water circuit is empty and the appliance could be very noisy.The noise becomes less as the circuit fills.
  •  Possible traces of coffee in the mill are the result of set-tings tests performed on the appliance before sale, proof of the meticulous care and attention we invest in our products.

TURNING THE MACHINE ON AND OFF

  •  Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an auto-matic preheat and rinse cycle which cannot be interrupt-ed. The appliance is not ready for use until the cycle has been completed.
  •  Whenever the machine is turned off after being used to make coffee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.
  • To turn the appliance on or off, press the button. If you will not be using the appliance for some time, unplug it from the mains socket:

MAKING COFFEE BEVERAGES

  •  Do not use green, caramelised or candied coffee beans as they could stick to the coffee mill and make it unusable.
  •  If “Energy Saving” mode is activated, there may be a few seconds delay before the first coffee is delivered.

Making coffee using pre-ground coffee

  •  Never add pre-ground coffee when the machine is off or it could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty it. This could damage the machine.
  •  Never use more than one level measure as it could dirty the inside of the machine or block the funnel.
  •  Making LONG coffee: halfway through prepara-tion, when the + lights come on, add one level measure of pre-ground coffee and press the Long button again.

Varying the coffee aroma

Press the button corresponding to the preferred aroma:

Mild
Medium
Strong

Select the desired coffee beverage. Please note:

  •  When the next coffee is made, the machine will propose the last aroma selected.
  •  In the event of power failure, the machine will revert to the medium default setting.

Rinsing
Use this function to deliver hot water from the coffee spouts to clean and heat the appliance’s internal circuit. To perform the rinse cycle, just press and hold the button for about 5 seconds. Delivery stops automatically (to interrupt delivery earlier, press the same button again).

Tips for a hotter coffee
To make a hotter coffee, proceed as follows:

  •  perform a rinse cycle (see paragraph “Rinsing”);
  •  warm the cups by rinsing them first using the hot water function;
  •  increase the coffee temperature (see section “9. Settings menu”).

Adjusting the coffee mill
The coffee mill is set by default to prepare coffee correctly and should not require regulating initially. To adjust, while the cof-fee mill is in operation, turn the dial as follows:

  • If the coffee is delivered too slowly, or not at all.
  • This adjustment will not take ef-fect until at least 2 cups of coffee have been delivered.
  • For a fuller bodied creamier coffee
  • This adjustment will not take ef-fect until at least 2 cups of coffee have been delivered.

Please note:
The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the coffee mill is in operation during the initial phase of coffee preparation.

Customising the quantity in the cup

  1.  Press the button relative to the beverage being pro-grammed and hold for a few seconds: the programming menu is accessed when the indicator switches to fast blink. Delivery begins;

MAKING CAPPUCCINO
  •  Fill a container with about 100 grams of milk for each cappuccino to be made. When choosing the size of the container, bear in mind that the milk doubles or triples in volume.
  • For a richer, denser froth, use skimmed or partially skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature (about 5°C). To ensure the heated milk does not end up with meagre froth or large bubbles, clean the cappuccino maker every time after use.
  • The quality of the froth may vary depending on:
  • the type of milk or vegetable beverage;
  • the brand used;
  • the ingredients and nutritional values.

MEASURING WATER HARDNESS

The descaling alarm is displayed after a period of time es-tablished according to water hardness. The machine is set by default for a hardness value of “4“. The machine can also be programmed according to the hardness of the water supply in the various regions, so that descaling is required less often.

  1.  Remove the indicator paper from its packaging. If provid- ed with your model, you will find it attached to the Quick Guide.
  2. Immerse the paper completely in a glass of water for about one second.
  3.  Remove the strip from the water and shake lightly. After about a minute, 1, 2, 3, or 4 red squares appear, depend-ing on the hardSAness of the water. Each square corresponds to one level.

See instructions in section “9. Settings menu” to set the machine.

DESCALING

To complete the descaling cycle correctly, pay close atten-tion to the quantities required in the water tank for each step:

  •  Before use, read the instructions and the labelling on the descaler pack.
  •  Use De’Longhi descaler only. Using unsuitable descaler and/or performing descaling incorrectly may result in faults not covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee.
  •  Descaler can cause damage to delicate surfaces. If the product is accidentally spilt, dry immediately.

Important:
If the water softener filter is installed, it must be re-moved before adding the descaler solution. Put the filter back in the machine after the first tank of rinsing has been completed.

The descaling procedure is described in the Quick Guide. Please note:

  •  Once the descaling cycle has begun, it cannot be inter-rupted and must be completed with the entire rinse cycle.
  •  After descaling, it is normal for the grounds container to contain water.
  •  If the water tank has not been filled to the MAX level after descaling, the appliance prompts for a third rinse to en-sure that the descaler solution has been completely elimi-nated from the machine’s internal circuits. Before starting rinsing, remember to empty the drip tray.

To correctly learn how to use the machine, when starting it for the first time, carefully follow the step-by-step instructions described in the following paragraphs.

PREPARING THE COFFEE MAKER

  1. FILLING THE WATER TANK
    • Remove the water tank (Fig.1), rinse it and fill it with fresh water, never exceeding the MAX line. When removing the tank, the milk frother must always be positioned towards the center of the machine, otherwise the tank cannot be removed.
    • Replace the tank, pushing it all the way in.
    • FILLING THE CONTAINER WITH COFFEE BEANS
      • Open the lid on the coffee bean container (Fig.2).
      • Fill the container with coffee beans.
      • Close the lid.
      WARNING: To avoid malfunctions, never fill with ground coffee, freeze-dried coffee or caramelized beans, or other objects that may damage the machine.
  2. USING THE COFFEE MAKER FOR THE FIRST TIME
    1. Check that the water tank is full and the power cable is plugged into the power outlet.
    2. Move the milk frother towards the outside and place a cup underneath (Fig.3). Then turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig.4).
    3. IMMEDIATELY AFTER, WITHIN A MAXIMUM OF 30 SECONDS, turn the steam knob counter-clockwise until it stops (Fig.5) (it is normal for the machine to make some noise).
    4. After few seconds, a little water will release from the milk frother. When the cup is 1/3 full, turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig.6) to terminate the flow of water.
    5. Wait for the and lights to stop flashing. The flashing lights indicate the machine is preheating. Before the lights stop flashing the machine will automatically perform a rinse cycle and a little hot water will release from the coffee spouts and collect in the drip tray. Once the lights illuminate steadily, the machine has reached the ideal temperature for making coffee.
      Tip: for a hotter short coffee (less than 2 oz.); first fill the cup with the hot rinsing water. Then leave it inside for a few seconds (before emptying it) so as to pre-heat the cup.
    6. At this point, the machine is ready for use.

PREPARING COFFEE (USING COFFEE BEANS)

  1. Before preparing the coffee, always make sure that the green and lights are steady and the water tank and coffee bean container are full.
  2. Adjust the coffee flavor dial (Fig. 7) to set the desired taste of the coffee. Turning the knob clockwise increases the quantity of coffee beans that the machine will grind, and thus makes the taste of the coffee stronger. When using the machine for the first time, the correct position of the knob can be found by trial and error. Make sure not to turn it too far clockwise, otherwise the coffee will be delivered too slowly (in drips), in particular when preparing two cups of coffee.
  3. Adjust the coffee quantity selector dial (Fig. 8) to set the quantity of coffee required. Turning the knob clockwise makes a longer coffee. When using the machine for the first time, the correct position of the knob can be found by trial and error.
  4. Place one cup under the coffee spout to make 1 coffee (Fig. 9) or 2 cups for 2 coffees (Fig. 10). For a creamy coffee, lower the coffee spout to bring them as close to the cups as possible (Fig. 11).
  5. Press the button (Fig. 12) to make one cup of coffee or the button (Fig. 13) to make 2 coffees. At this point the machine grinds the beans, runs a short pre-infusion cycle, a pause and then completes the delivery.
    Once the desired quantity has been reached, the machine automatically stops delivering the coffee and discharges the grounds into the coffee grounds container.
  6. After a few seconds, when both the green and indicator lights are steady, another coffee can be made.
  7. To switch the machine off, press the button. (Before switching off, the machine automatically runs a rinse cycle: a little hot water runs out of the spout and is collected in the drip tray underneath – be careful, to avoid scalds). If the machine is not switched off using the button, it will switch itself off and run a brief rinse cycle 3 hours after the last operation.

NOTE 1: If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 17) one click clockwise (see section 6). Turn a click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily.

NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the coffee flavor dial (fig. 7) clockwise. Proceed by trial and error to find the correct position of the dial. Make sure not to turn the dial too far clockwise, otherwise the delivery may become too slow (in drops), in particular when making two cups of coffee. If, after several coffees, the cream is still not satisfactory, also turn the grinding coarseness regulator (Fig. 17) one click counter-clockwise (see section 6).

NOTE 3: Tips on making hotter coffee:

  1. If, when the machine has just been turned on, a short cup of coffee is required (less than 2 oz), use the hot rinsing water to pre-heat the cups (see suggestion in section 4.3, point 5). If, on the other hand, more than 2-3 minutes have elapsed since the last coffee was made, before preparing another coffee the infuser must be pre-heated, pressing the button (Fig. 14).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 it.
  2. Unless preheated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat.
  3. Use cups that have been previously heated by rinsing them with hot water or alternatively by leaving them for at least 20 minutes on the cup warmer tray on top of the machine with the appliance on.

NOTE 4: while the machine is making the coffee, the delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the button (Fig. 12) or button (Fig. 13), as previously selected.

NOTE 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the button (Fig. 12) or button (Fig. 13), as previously selected, until the desired quantity is reached (this operation must be performed within 3 seconds from when coffee delivery from the spouts ceases).

NOTE 6: when the indicator light comes on (section 12, point 1), the water tank must be filled, otherwise the coffee cannot be made. The water tank can only be removed if the milk frother is first positioned towards the center of the machine. (It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the indicator light comes on).

NOTE 7: the machine counts the number of cups of coffee made. Each 14 single cups (or 7 double cups), the light switches on steady (section 12 point 3), warning the user that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned. Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the light will remain on and the machine cannot deliver coffee. To clean the container, open the service door on the front (pulling the handle, Fig. 15), the light flashes (see section 12, point 9); remove the drip tray (Fig. 16), empty and clean. Empty and carefully clean the grounds container, making sure to remove all the residue that may be deposited on the bottom. Also, dry off any condensation that may have formed that may have formed inside the machine under the drip tray. IMPORTANT: when removing the drip tray, the grounds container MUST be emptied, even if it is not completely full. If this is not done, when making your next coffee, the grounds the grounds container may fill over the maximum level and block the machine.

NOTE 8: the grinder in the coffee maker may become worn over time and consequently the coffee will change taste as it is ground more coarsely. To resolve this problem, re-set the grinding coarseness by adjusting the regulator (Fig. 17) one click counter-clockwise (as described in chap. 6).

NOTE 9: if the machine is not used for a long period, the infuser must be cleaned, as described in section 10.2.

NOTE 10: while the machine is delivering coffee, never remove the water tank. If it is removed, the machine will not be able to make the coffee and the “” indicator light will flash. If you try to make another coffee, the machine becomes noisy and does not make the coffee. To reset the machine, turn the steam knob counter-clockwise as far as it will go and run off water from the milk frother for a few seconds.

When using the machine for the first time, 4-5 cups of coffee need to be made before the machine starts to give satisfying results.

If the machine malfunctions, do not contact the service center right away. The problems can almost always be resolved by following the instructions indicated in sections 12 and 13. If this is not the case, or for further explanations, contact customer service by calling the number listed in the warranty or visit www.delonghi.com for a list of service centers near you. (U.S. and Canada).

ADJUSTING THE COFFEE GRINDER

The coffee grinder must not be adjusted, at least initially, as it has already been factory preset to deliver the correct quantities of coffee.

Nonetheless, after having made the first coffees, if delivery is too fast or too slow (in drips), the grinding coarseness regulator can be adjusted (Fig. 17). Turning one click (one number) clockwise achieves faster delivery of the coffee (without drips).

Turning one click counter-clockwise slows down delivery giving a creamier appearance to the coffee.

These adjustments will only be evident after the delivery of at least 2 cups of coffee.

The grinding coarseness regulator must only be turned when the coffee grinder is running.

Turn counter-clockwise for finer ground coffee and consequently slower delivery and a creamier appearance.

Turn clockwise for coarser ground coffee and consequently faster delivery (not a drop at a time).

NOTE 1: Coffee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is , therefore, completely normal for there to be traces of coffee in the grinder (mill). This appliance is, however, guaranteed to be new.

PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE WITH GROUND COFFEE (INSTEAD OF BEANS)

  1. Press the button to select the ground coffee function (Fig. 18). The ground coffee light will illuminate indicating the function has been the function has been selected and the coffee grinder has been disabled.
  2. Lift the lid in the center, place one measuring scoop of ground coffee in the funnel (see fig. 19) and proceed as described in section 5.
    Note: You can make just one coffee at a time by pressing the button.

    • NOTE 1: Never add the ground coffee when the machine is off, to prevent it from spilling inside the machine.
    • NOTE 2: Never add more than 1 measure, otherwise either the machine will not make the coffee and the pre-ground coffee will be lost inside the machine, dirtying it, or the coffee will be run off in drips.
    • NOTE 3: When measuring the quantity of coffee to be added, use the measuring scoop supplied only.
    • NOTE 4: Only use ground coffee for espresso espresso coffee makers. Do not use not use coffee beans, freeze-dried coffee or other materials that may damage the machine.
    • NOTE 5: If you add more than one measure of pre-ground coffee and the funnel blocks, use a plastic knife to push the coffee down (Fig. 20), then remove and clean the infuser and the machine, as described in section 10.2 “Cleaning the infuser”.
  3. Once the coffee has been delivered, to make coffee using the beans again, deactivate the ground coffee function by pressing the button again (the light goes off and the coffee grinder is enabled for operation again).

HOT WATER DELIVERY

  • Always make sure the green and  lights are on steady.
  • Turn the cappuccino frother towards the outside of the machine (Fig. 3).
  • Position a container underneath the milk frother (Fig. 3).
  • Press the button (fig. 21). The light comes on to indicate that the function has been selected.
  • Turn the steam knob half a turn in counter-clockwise until it stops (Fig. 5): hot water will come out of the milk frother and start to fill the container underneath.
  • To stop the flow of hot water, turn the knob all the way clockwise (Fig. 6) and return the cappuccino frother to the original position towards the center of the machine.
  • Press the button (fig. 21). (It is recommended to deliver hot water for no more than 2 minutes).

PREPARING CAPPUCCINOS (USING STEAM)

  • Move the cappuccino frother outwards (fig. 3).
  • Place an empty container under the cappuccino frother (fig. 3). Turn the steam knob a half turn counter-clockwise as far as it will go (the light flashes fig. 22). Run off the steam mixed with water for a few seconds until only steam is given off.
  • Then interrupt steam delivery by rotating the knob clockwise as far as it will go (fig. 6).
  • Empty the container and fill it with about 3.5 oz. of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared. In choosing the size of the container, bear in mind that the milk increases in volume by 2 or 3 times. You are recommended to use skim or 2% milk at refrigerator temperature (about 41°F/5°C).
  • Dip the cappuccino frother into the into the container with milk (fig. 23), taking care not to immerse the raised line on the cappuccino frother (indicated by the arrow in fig. 24).Turn the steam knob a half turn counter-clockwise as far as it will go (take care to avoid scalds). Steam is discharged from the cappuccino maker, giving the milk a creamy frothy appearance. To obtain a creamier froth, dip the cappuccino frother into the milk and rotate the container with slow movements from the bottom upwards. (You should not discharge steam for more than two minutes at a time).
  • Once the desired temperature has been reached, stop the steam by turning the steam knob clockwise until it stops (Fig. 6).
  • Prepare the coffee .as described in section 5, using large enough cups, then fill with the frothed milk prepared previously. The cappuccino is ready. Sweeten to taste and if desired, sprinkle the froth with a little cocoa powder.
    NOTE 1: The cappuccino frother must always be cleaned after use. Proceed as follows:
  • Release a little steam for a few seconds by turning the steam knob counter-clockwise until it stops (Fig. 5). With this operation, the steam spout discharges any milk that may be left inside. IMPORTANT: For hygiene reasons, this operation should always be performed, so as to prevent previously used milk from remaining inside the cappuccino frother.
  • Turn the knob clockwise as far as it will go. With one hand, hold the cappuccino frother handle firm and with the other unscrew the cappuccino frother cover itself by rotating clockwise and extracting downwards (fig. 25).
  • Remove the steam nozzle from the delivery spout by pulling it downwards (Fig. 26).
  • Carefully wash the cappuccino frother and the steam nozzle in warm water.
  • Check that the two holes indicated by the arrows in Fig. 27 are not clogged. If necessary, clean them using a needle or pin.
  • Replace the steam nozzle by inserting it and vigorously turning it upwards into the steam spout.
  • Replace the cappuccino frother cover by pushing it upwards and turning it counter-clockwise.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

  • Before performing any cleaning operations, the machine must have cooled down and must be disconnected from the mains power supply.
  • Never immerse the machine in the water: it is an electrical appliance.
  • Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee maker. A soft damp cloth will suffice.
  • The infuser, grounds container, water tank and drip tray must NEVER be washed in the dishwasher.

CLEANING THE COFFEE MAKER

  • Clean the grounds container (as described in section 5, note 7) whenever the light comes on steady (section 12 – point 3).
  • The water tank should be cleaned regularly.
  • The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the level of water inside. When the indicator starts to become visible (a few millimeters under the drip tray), the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned.
  • Check that the holes in the coffee delivery spout are not blocked. To clean them, scrape the dry coffee residues with a needle (Fig. 28).

CLEANING THE INFUSER

The infuser must be cleaned regularly to prevent it from filling with coffee deposits (that may lead to malfunctions). To clean it, proceed as follows:

  • turn the machine off by pressing the button (Fig. 4) (do not unplug it) and wait for all the indicator lights to go off;
  • open the service door (Fig. 15);
  • remove the drip tray and the grounds container (Fig. 16) and clean them;
  • press the two red release buttons on the infuser sideways and towards the center (Fig. 29) and pull it out;

WARNING: THE INFUSER CAN ONLY BE REMOVED WHEN THE MACHINE IS OFF. ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE INFUSER WITH THE MACHINE ON MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE.

  • wash the infuser under running water, without using detergents. Never wash the infuser in the dishwasher;
  • carefully clean the inside of the machine. To remove the coffee stuck to the parts inside the machine, scrape it with a plastic or wooden fork (Fig. 30) and then pick up all the residues using a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 31);
  • Replace the infuser by sliding it onto the supports and the pin at the bottom; then push the PUSH symbol fully in until until it clicks into place.

Check that the two red buttons have snapped out, otherwise the door cannot be closed.

NOTE 1: If the infuser is not inserted correctly, until it clicks into place, and the two red buttons have not snapped out, the service door will not close and the machine will not operate (when switching on the machine the light starts flashing (section 12 – point 9).

NOTE 2: if it is hard to insert the infuser, (before inserting it) squeeze it into size by pressing it vigorously from above and
below at the same time, as shown in Figure 32.

NOTE 3: if it is still hard to insert the infuser, leave it out of the machine, close the service door, unplug from the outlet then plug in again. Wait for all the lights to go off, then open the door and replace the infuser.

  • replace the drip tray, complete with the grounds container;
  • close the service door.

DESCALING

Due to the continuous heating of the water used to make the coffee, over time it is normal for the tubing inside the machine to fill with lime scale. When the light starts flashing (section 12 – point 5), it is time to descale the machine.

NOTE: when the light switches on, the coffee maker can still be used to prepare coffee. Proceed as follows:

Empty the tank and pour in the contents of one bottle (125 ml) of DURGOL descaler plus one liter of water. For subsequent descaling operations, descaling solution can be purchased from authorized technical service centers.

Note: Make sure splashes of descaler do not fall onto surfaces sensitive to acid such as marble, limestone and granite.

  • place a container with a minimum capacity of 34 oz. under the cappuccino frother (Fig. 3);
  • turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig. 4).
  • wait for the green and indicator lights to come on steady.
  • press and hold the button for at least 5 seconds (Fig.14). The decalcification warning light will illuminate (section 11 – point 8) to indicated the start of the descaling program (the and lights remain off to indicate that it is not possible to make coffee).
  • turn the steam knob half a turn counter-clockwise (Fig.5). The descaling solution will come out of the cappuccino frother and start to fill the container underneath.
  • the descaling program automatically performs a series of deliveries and pauses, so as to remove the lime scale deposits from inside the coffee maker.
  • after around 30 minutes, when the light comes on (section 12 – point 1), turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig.6) until it stops.

The machine must be rinsed so as to eliminate the residues of descaling solution from inside the machine. Proceed as follows:

  • remove the water tank, rinse it and fill it with clean water.
  • reposition the tank.
  • empty the collection container (located under the milk frother) that is full of liquid, and then replace it under the milk frother.
  • turn the steam knob half a turn counter-clockwise (Fig. 5). Hot water will come out of the milk frother and fill the container underneath.
  • when the tank is empty, the light goes off and the light comes on (section 12 – point 1).
  • turn the steam knob all the way clockwise (Fig. 6) and fill the water tank with clean water again.
  • the program of descaling is now terminated and the machine is ready to make coffee again.
    NOTE: if the descaling procedure is interrupted before completion, the alarm (section 12 – point 5) is not deactivated and the procedure must be started again form the beginning.

IMPORTANT: FAILURE TO DESCALE THE APPLIANCE REGULARLY INVALIDATES THE WARRANTY.

SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS

The light (section 12 – point 5) switches on after after the machine has been operated for a factory set period of time calculated on the basis of the maximum quantity of lime scale which may be contained in the water used. If necessary, this period of operation can be extended, thus making the descaling operation less frequent, by programming the machine based on the actual lime content in the water used. Proceed as follows:

  • after having removed the “Total hardness test” strip (enclosed on page 2) from its packaging, dip it fully in the water for a few seconds, then pull it out and wait around 30 seconds (until it changes color anda number of squares are formed);
  • check that the machine is off (all the indicator lights are off);
  • press the button (Fig. 14) and hold it for at least 5 seconds. The four lights , , and come on.
  • press the button (Fig.18) repeatedly until the number of lights that are on coincides with the number of red squares on the test strip (for example, if there are 3 red squares on the test strip, press the button until 3 indicator lights come on together , and  ).
  • press the button (Fig. 14) to save the data. The coffee maker is now programmed to provide the descaling warning when effectively necessary, based on the actual hardness of the water.

Would you recommend this to someone who only enjoys long coffee (like drip) or cappuccinos, not espresso?

No of course not! This is not a coffee maker. It will not make a hot cup of coffee to be enjoyed over a long period of time. It will be cold very quickly unless you put it in a special thermal cup. Why would people answer this question to the contrary is beyond me. You will be disappointed if you are buying this make 16oz of coffee.

what breaks?

after a few years, we had a rust issue and an internal part had to be replaced. Cost $200. Then the machine was fine for 2 more years. We have a 2nd one now.

Will power off after a few seconds of plugging in. Is control board bad?

There is a timer in the unit, and if left on unattended for a long period of time, it will power off. Perhaps your timer needs to reset.

Cleaningthe cabinet
You should clean the appliance with a slightly damp cloth then dry with a dry cloth.
For safety reasons, never wash the air conditioner with water.

Precautions
Never use petrol, alcohol or solvents to clean the appliance.
Never spray insecticide liquids or similar.

Cleaning the silver ion air filter

If the filter is dirty, air circulation is compromised and the efficiency of the dehumidifying and air purifying functions decreases.
It is therefore good practice to clean the filter at regular intervals. The frequency depends on the duration and conditions of operation.
If the unit is used constantly or systematically, you are recommended to clean the filter once a week.
The filter is housed in the intake grille.
To clean the filter, extract as shown in fig. 20.

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust collected on the filter. If it is very dirty, immerse in warm water and rinse a number of times. The water should never be hotter than 104°F ( 40°C).
After washing, leave the filter to dry. Put the filter back in its housing.
The silver ion filter not just retains dust particles, but also has an efficient antibacterial action. It also greatly reduces concentrations of irritants such as pollenand spores.

Start of season checks

Make sure the power cable and plug are undamaged and the ground connection is efficient. Follow the installation instructions precisely.

End of season operations

To drain all water from the circuit, remove the external cap by unscrewing it in the anticlockwise direction then, remove the internal cap from the drain hose on the back of the appliance and allow the water to drain out into a basin (fig. 21).
When the appliance is empty, replace thecaps.
Clean the filter and dry thoroughly before putting back. In order to properly storage the appliance at the end of the season, we suggest you cover it with the supplied end of season dust cover C9 and you put the accessories in the relevant end of season accessories bag C10.

CLEANING

Clean the oven and seals to remove food debris on a weekly basis and more often if required. Failure to maintain the oven and seals in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface or seals, adversely affect the life of the oven and possibly result in a hazardous situation (possible release of microwave energy). Clean the oven after each use, if food is cooked uncovered and especially if fatty foods are cooked and the grill function is used.
1. Switch off, unplug the oven and allow the oven to cool completely.
2. Wipe surfaces and seals with a soft damp cloth (not wet). Do not use abrasive cleaning products or metal scrapers to clean the glass door of the oven as this could damage the surface and cause breakage. Do not immerse in water. Do not use a steam cleaner.
3. The grill rack, glass turntable and turntable roller can be washed in hot water with a little washing-up liquid. NOT SUITABLE FOR
DISHWASHERS.
4. Always allow surfaces to fully dry before using the oven again.

GENERAL MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

  • Food cooking times will vary with microwave wattage (MAFF rating). When following recipes and on pack cooking instructions always check the MAFF rating / wattage of  the appliance being used (marked on the front of the microwave) and follow the corresponding cooking advice.
  • Beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling; therefore care must be taken when handling the container.
  • Remove lids from containers before placing in the microwave, pierce plastic films and do not use vessels with sealed or restricted openings since they are liable to explode.
  • Pierce the skin or membranes of food (e.g. potatoes, apples, fish, chicken, eggs) in several places before cooking. Never cook or heat eggs in their shell or whole hard-boiled eggs, as they may explode even after cooking has been completed.
  • Ensure food is similar size and density. Large dense items take longer to cook than small ones e.g. potatoes take longer to cook than peas.
  • Food quantity will affect the cooking time, e.g. two potatoes take longer than one.
  • The shape of food will affect the cooking time; place the thickest part of food on the outside of the plate.
  • Leave food to stand for a short period after cooking or defrosting to allow the temperature to become uniform.
