Only clean the milk frother when the machine is switched off, cold and not under pressure! Do not clean coffee machine parts in the dishwasher. Never put water in the grinder. This would damage the grinder. Never open or repair the coffee machine. Faulty repairs can result in considerable hazard to the user. Repairs to electrical appliances must be carried out only by qualified service engineers. If a repair becomes necessary, including replacement of the mains lead, please contact the dealer where you bought the coffee machine, or the AEG/Electrolux Service Line. If the machine is misused or incorrectly operated the manufacturer accepts no liability for damage and the guarantee is invalidated - likewise if the descaling program is not carried out in accordance with these operating instructions immediately after the light flashes. Blocking or damage caused by foreign objects in the grinder might be excluded from the guarantee.
Before using for the first time
Setting up and connecting the coffee machine
0 After unpacking, make sure the appliance is complete and undamaged. If in doubt, do not use it. Contact professionally qualified personnel. 0 Place the appliance on a work surface far away from water taps, basins and sources of heat.
After having positioned the appliance on the work bench, make sure that there is a free space of around 5 cm between the surfaces of the appliance and the side and rear walls and a free space of at least 20 cm above the coffee maker. Never install the machine in environments where the temperature may reach 0 C or lower (the appliance may be damaged if the water freezes). Check that the voltage of the mains power supply corresponds to the value indicated on the appliance's type plate. Only connect the appliance to a power outlet with a minimum rating of 10 A that is properly earthed. The manufacturer declines all liability for any accidents caused if the system is not correctly earthed.

If the power outlet does not match the plug on the appliance, have the outlet replaced with a suitable type by qualified personnel. 0 Plug the coffee machine into the power outlet. If the coffee machine is plugged in for the very first time, all lights come on for a few seconds for a check, then all lights go off.
The water hardness should be set as soon as possible, following the procedure described in the section 9.5 Setting the water hardness, page 88.

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

Filling with water

Switching on for the first time
When you operate the machine for the first time, the coffee machine has to be vented. Check that the water tank is full and that power cable is plugged into the power outlet. Move the milk frother towards the outside and place a cup underneath (Fig. 6). Then turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig. 7). Immediately after, within a maximum of 30 seconds, turn the steam knob anticlockwise until it stops (Fig. 8) (it is normal for the machine to make some noise). After few seconds, a little water will come out of the milk frother. When there is around 30 cc in the cup, turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig. 8) until it stops, so as to stop the water coming out. Wait for the and lights to stop flashing and turn on steady. (When the lights are flashing it means that the machine is pre-heating, while when they are on steady it means that the machine has reached the ideal temperature for making coffee). A few moments before the lights stop flashing the machine automatically performs a rinse cycle: a little hot water will come out of the delivery spouts and will be collected in the drip tray underneath. Tip: for a hotter, short coffee (less than 60 cc), 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. At this point, the machine is ready for use.
Each time before switching on the coffee machine, check that there is water in the water tank, and refill if necessary. The coffee machine requires water for the automatic rinsing processes each time the machine is switched on or off. 0 Remove the water tank (Fig. 4), rinse it and fill it with fresh water, without exceeding the MAX line. When removing the tank, the milk frother must always be positioned towards the centre of the machine, otherwise the tank cannot be removed.

Pour only fresh cold water into the water tank. Never put in other liquids, e.g. mineral water or milk. 0 Replace the tank, pushing it all the way in.
To always be sure of obtaining a rich coffee with a full aroma, you should: change the water in the water tank daily, wash the water tank at least once a week in normal washing-up water (not in the dishwasher). Then rinse with fresh water.
Filling the coffee bean container
0 Open the lid on the coffee bean container (Fig. 5). 0 Fill the container with coffee beans. 0 Close the lid.
Note! Do not put frozen or caramelised coffee beans in the bean container. Use only roasted coffee beans! Make sure that no foreign objects, such as small stones, enter the coffee bean container. Blocking or damage caused by foreign objects in the grinder might be excluded from the guarantee.

4 Making coffee with beans
0 Before delivering the coffee, always make sure that the and lights are on steady, and that the water tank and the coffee bean container are full. 0 Adjust the grinding quantity selector knob (Fig. 9) 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 drops), above all when preparing two cups of coffee. 0 Adjust the coffee quantity selector knob (Fig. 10) 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. 0 Place one cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee or 2 cups for 2 coffees (Fig. 11). For a creamy coffee, lower the spouts to bring them as close to the cups as possible (Fig. 12). 0 Press the button (Fig. 13) to make one cup of coffee or the button (Fig. 14) 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 special container. After a few seconds, when both the and indicator lights are on again, another coffee can be made. 0 To switch the machine off, press the button. (Before switching off, the machine automatically runs a rinse cycle: a little hot water will come out of the spouts and will be collected in the drip tray underneath - be careful, to avoid being scalded ). 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 4: while the machine is making the coffee, the delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the button (Fig. 13) or button (Fig. 14), or by turning the coffee quantity selector knob (Fig. 10) anti-clockwise. Note 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the button (Fig. 13) or button (Fig. 14), until reaching the desired quantity, or turn the coffee quantity selector knob (Fig. 10) clockwise (this operation must be performed immediately after the coffee is dispensed and before the coffee grounds are ejected into the grounds container). Note 6: when the alarm comes on, 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 centre of the machine. (It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the alarm 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, warning the user that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned, see 9.2 Emptying the grounds container, page 86.

5 Adjusting the coffee grinder
The coffee grinder must not be adjusted, at least initially, as it has already been pre-set in the factory for the correct delivery of the coffee. Nonetheless, after having made the first coffees, if delivery is too fast or too slow (in drops), the grinding coarseness must be adjusted using the knob (Fig.17) located inside the bean container. These adjustments will only be evident after the delivery of at least 2 cups of coffee. 0 Adjust the coffee quantity selector knob (Fig. 10) to set the quantity of coffee required. Turning the knob clockwise makes a longer coffee. 0 Place one cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee or 2 cups for 2 coffees (Fig. 11). For a creamy coffee, lower the spouts to bring them as close to the cups as possible (Fig. 12). 0 Press the button (Fig. 13) to make one cup of coffee or the button (Fig. 14) to make 2 coffees.
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 2 measures, otherwise either the machine will not make the coffee and the preground coffee will be lost inside the machine, dirtying it, or the coffee will be run off in drips. Note 3: When dosing the quantity of coffee to be added, only use the measure supplied. Note 4: Only use ground coffee for espresso coffee makers: do not use coffee beans, freeze-dried coffee or other materials that may damage the machine.
The grinder setting may be changed only while coffee is being ground. Making adjustments to the stationary grinder can damage the coffee machine. 0 Turn one click (one number) anticlockwise for finer ground coffee and consequently slower delivery and a creamier appearance (Fig. 18). 0 Turn one click (one number) clockwise for coarser ground coffee and consequently faster delivery (not a drop at a time) (Fig. 18).

Note 1: immediately after having prepared the cappuccino, once having pressed the steam button (Fig. 22) to deactivate the function, the machine is too hot to make coffee (the and lights flash to indicate that the temperature is not suitable); simply wait around 10 minutes for the machine to cool down a little. Hint: To cool it down more quickly, after having deactivated the steam function, open the steam knob and release some water from the milk frother into a container, until the and lights stop flashing.

8.1 Cleaning the milk frother

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. All the components of the machine must not be washed in the dishwasher.
The milk frother must always be cleaned after use. 0 Release a little steam for a few seconds by turning the steam knob anticlockwise until it stops (Fig. 8). With this operation, the steam spout discharges any milk that may be left inside.
Important: For reasons of hygiene, this operation should always be performed, so as to prevent the milk from remaining in the circuits inside the milk frother. Turn the knob clockwise as far as it will 9.1 go. Wait a couple of minutes for the 0 milk frother to cool down. With one hand, hold the steam spout handle firm and with the other disengage the bayonet connection of the 0 milk frother by turning it slightly clockwise. Extract the milk frother 0 downwards (Fig. 24). Remove the milk frother nozzle from the delivery spout by pulling it downwards. Carefully wash the milk frother and the nozzle in warm water. 0 Check that the two holes indicated by the arrows in Fig. 25 are not clogged. If necessary, clean them using a needle or pin. 9.2 Replace the milk frother nozzle by inserting it and vigorously turning it upwards onto the steam spout. Replace the milk frother by pushing it upwards and turning it anticlockwise (Fig. 24).
Cleaning the coffee maker
Clean the grounds container (as described in section 9.2 Emptying the grounds container, page 86 ) whenever the light comes on steady. The water tank should be cleaned regularly. The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) (Fig. 26) showing the level of water inside. When the indicator starts to become visible (a few millimetres 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. 27).
Emptying the grounds container
The appliance counts the number of coffees made. Every 14 single coffees (or 7 doubles) the light comes on to indicate that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned. Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance cannot make coffee. 0 To clean it, unlock and open the service door by pushing the respective button (Fig. 15), the light flashes. 0 Then remove the drip tray (Fig. 16), and empty and clean it. 0 Empty the grounds container and clean it thoroughly, making sure that all residues deposited on the bottom are removed.

822_949_383 ECS5000_5200_Elux.book Seite 87 Montag, 9. Juli 2007 5:35 17
Important: Each time you pull out the drip tray, the grounds container must also be emptied, even if it is not completely full. If this is not done, when coffee is next made, the grounds in the container may exceed the maximum level and block the appliance. pin must be inserted into the pipe at the bottom of the infuser (Fig. 32, d). 0 Then push the PUSH symbol (Fig. 32, e) fully in until hearing the click. 0 Check that the two red buttons (Fig. 32, f) have opened back out, otherwise the door cannot close. Fig. 33: The two red buttons have snapped out correctly. Fig. 34: The two red buttons have not snapped out.
When the coffee machine is in daily use, empty the container daily. Always empty the container with the coffee machine switched on, otherwise the coffee machine does not register that the container has been emptied.

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 centre (Fig. 28) and pull it out.
Note 1: If the infuser is not inserted correctly until hearing the click and the two red buttons have not opened out properly, the service door will not close and the machine will not operate (when switching on the machine the light starts flashing). 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 31. Note 3: if it is still hard to insert the infuser, leave it out of the machine, close the service door, unplug from the mains then plug in again. Wait for all the lights to go off, then open the door and replace the infuser. Then replace the drip tray, complete with the grounds container, and close the service door.

Warning: the infuser can only be removed when the machine is off. Attempting to remove the infuser with the machine on will risk causing damage. 9.Wash the infuser under running water, without using detergents. Never wash the infuser in the dishwasher. 0 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. 29) and then pick up all the residues using a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 30). 0 Replace the infuser (Fig. 32, a) by pushing it onto the holder (Fig. 32, b) and pushing in the pin (Fig. 32, c). The

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, 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: 0 Turn the machine on by pressing the button (Fig. 7). 0 Wait for the and indicator lights to come on steady.

0 Prepare the solution as indicated on the packaging of the descaling product supplied with the coffee maker:. Pour the contents of the bottle of descaler (approx. 0.125 litres) into the water tank and then add 1 litre water. out of the milk frother and fill the container underneath. 0 When the tank is empty, the light goes off and the light comes on. 0 Turn the steam knob all the way clockwise (Fig. 8) and fill the water tank with clean water again. The program of descaling is now terminated and the machine is ready to do again the coffee. Note: if the descaling procedure is stopped before completion, the alarm is not deactivated and the procedure must be started again from the beginning. Important: the guarantee is not valid if the above descaling operation is not performed regularly.
Important: Do not under any circumstances use any descalers which are not recommended by AEG/Electrolux. If other descaling agents are used, AEG/ Electrolux accepts no liability for any damage. You can obtain descaling liq3 uid from specialist retailers or from the AEG/Electrolux Service Line. Place a container with a minimum capacity of 1.5 litres under the milk frother (Fig. 6). Press and hold the button for at 1 least 5 seconds. The light switches on to indicate the start of the descaling program (the and 9.5 lights remain off to indicate that it is not possible to make coffee). Turn the steam knob half a turn anticlockwise (Fig. 8). The descaling solution will come out of the milk 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, turn the steam knob half a turn clockwise (Fig. 8) until it stops. 0 The machine must be rinsed so as to eliminate the residues of descaling solution from inside the machine. 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 anticlockwise (Fig. 8). Hot water will come

Setting the water hardness
The light switches on after a preset period of operation, set in the factory, considering the maximum quantity of lime scale that may be contained in the mains water. 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. You can use the enclosed test strip to determine the water hardness, or contact your local water supply company. Determining water hardness Dip the test strip in cold water for around 1 second. Shake off the excess water, and gauge the hardness by means of the pink bands. No pink bands or one pink band: Hardness level 1, soft up to 1.24 mmol/l, or up to 7 German hardness, or up to 12.6 French hardness Two pink bands: Hardness level 2, medium hard up to 2.5 mmol/l, or up to 14 German hardness, or up to 25.2 French hardness
822_949_383 ECS5000_5200_Elux.book Seite 89 Montag, 9. Juli 2007 5:35 17
Three pink bands: Hardness level 3, hard up to 3.7 mmol/l, or up to 21 German hardness, or up to 37.8 French hardness Four pink bands: Hardness level 4, very hard over 3.7 mmol/l or over 21 German hardness, or over 37.8 French hardness Setting and saving the water hardness level You can set 4 hardness levels.
