HOW DO I SET UP MY MACHINE?

1. lnsert the power socket into a power outlet.
2. Fill water tank with cold water.
3. Place the drip tray in the appropriate height for your cup size. It is possible to detach the drip tray and lay it flat at the bottom surface underneath the nozzle for larger cups or macchiato glasses.
4. Switch the machine ON by flipping the toggle switch up. Both the espresso and lungo buttons will start blinking to indicate that the machine is warming up.
5. The machine is ready to use when the lights stops blinking and stays on.
6. Run 4-6 cups of water before your first brew.
   
   

HOW DO I LET WATER INTO MY MACHINE?

When your new machine arrives, it is completely out of water, and may need to deair it to let water in. You will notice this when you have filled the water tank, but no water comes out when it’s supposed to start brewing. The machine will also make the same noise it does when performing a normal brewing procedure.  

To deair your machine, follow the steps below: 

• Turn the machine ON.   
• Fill up the water tank.  
• Have the capsule inlet lever in its upright position. Push it slightly further back towards the back of the machine until you hear a sound. 
• Run a cup of water through the machine before brewing a cup of coffee by pressing either the espresso or the lungo button. Your machine is deaired when water comes out of the nozzle. 

DESCALING

TO PREVENT CALCIFICATION AND CLOGGING

Descaling your machine is a necessary part of keeping it fresh and ensuring the best-tasting coffee. Not descaling your machine can also lead to issues. For example, the machine can start leaking if the coffee cannot flow through it properly. How often a descaling should be carried out depends on the amount of lime in the water in your area. For a moderate amount, we recommend descaling at least twice a year. For areas with mineral-rich water, it should be up to once every third month. The descaling process goes as followed:

• Make sure that the water tank is filled with at least 0.5 litres of water. 
• Make sure that the capsule inlet is empty. 
• Empty the capsule container and the drip tray. 
• Let water run through the machine (without a capsule). 
• Add the descaling solution to the water tank.  
• Place a cup or container underneath the nozzle. 
• Press and hold both the espresso and lungo buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. 
• Let the descaling solution run through the machine for a second time. 
• Fill the water tank with fresh water. 
• Run 6-8 cups of water through to make sure the machine is free of any descaling solution residue. 

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DESCALE?

Soft water: 0-6 dH
after 1200 cups
Medium hard water: 7-13 dH
after 600 cups
Hard water: 14-20 dH
after 300 cups

Stockholm     5-6
Uppsala        14-17
Göteborg      3
Malmö          7

AIRING THE MACHINE

PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR LONGER NON-USE OR TRANSPORTATION

If you are moving the machine or plan not to use it for a long period of time, we recommend that you air it. You will then drain the machine completely of water to avoid freezing and leaking. 

• Switch ON the machine
• Pull the capsule inlet lever down (without a capsule) 
• Push either of the brew ratio buttons.  
• As soon as water starts pouring out, remove the water tank. 
• Once the water stops pouring, the airing of the machine is complete. 
  

DEAIRING THE MACHINE 

WHEN THE MACHINE IS NEW OR HAS NOT BEEN USED IN A WHILE

When your new machine arrives, it is completely out of water, and you will need to deair it to let water in. You will notice this when you have filled the water tank, but no water comes out when it’s supposed to start brewing. The machine will also make the same noise it does when performing a normal brewing procedure. To deair your machine, follow the steps below: 

• Turn the machine ON.   
• Fill up the water tank.  
• Have the capsule inlet lever in its upright position. Push it slightly further back towards the back of the machine until you hear a sound. 
• Run a cup of water through the machine before brewing a cup of coffee by pressing either the espresso or the lungo button. Your machine is deaired when water comes out of the nozzle. 

CLEANING 

TO REMOVE OPTICAL MARKS AND RESIDUES

Use a damp cloth with mild, non-abrasive cleaning detergent to remove stains of grease or fingerprints from the machines surface. Remove the capsules from the container frequently and rinse it to avoid mould or bad smell. Clean the water tank from lime stains or sewage frequently by using a non-abrasive cloth and agent (e.g. dishwashing liquid).

THE LIGHTS WON´T TURN ON

• The machine has entered power safe mode which happens after 28 minutes of non-use.
• Toggle the ON/OFF switch.
• Check the condition of the power cord, the voltage, and the fuse.

THE LIGHTS ARE BLINKING IRREGULARLY  

• Make sure that it’s not the descaling alarm that’s causing the blinking lights. If it is, perform the descaling procedure.
• Check the water tank. If empty, fill with fresh water.
  
  

NO/NOT ENOUGH COFFEE/WATER IS COMING OUT OF THE MACHINE 

• Check the water tank. If empty, fill with fresh water.  
• Lift the coffee inlet lever.  
• Press either of the brew ratio buttons and wait until water pours out. 
• Check that the machine has not been programmed to dispense a small amount of coffee. Perform a factory reset if unsure. 
  
  

THE COFFEE ISN’T HOT ENOUGH 

• Preheat the coffee cup with hot water. Descale the machine if necessary.
• NOTE: The temperature for the coffee should be around 93° Celsius during the brewing process for an Espresso. The temperature from the coffee/water coming from the nozzle should be 85°± 3° for Sjöstrand capsules. Other capsule types can show a slight deviation on the measured temperature.
  
  

THE CAPSULE INLET DOESN’T CLOSE COMPLETELY 

• Empty the capsule container.  
• Check that there is no capsule jammed inside the machine.
  
  

WATER IS LEAKING INTO THE CAPSULE CONTAINER 

• Check that the water tank is properly mounted. 
• Make sure you are using either Sjöstrand coffee capsules or Nespresso® Original coffee capsules. 
• Make sure the black, round filter plate, is properly in place and not clogged. The filter plate is the rough textured component that penetrates the capsule membrane during the brewing process and sits in the front part of the capsule inlet. You can use a brush and carefully brush over the filter plate to remove residues. 
• Try brewing 2-3 cups of water to wash out the machine. Dried-up coffee residue that’s left in the machine due to non-use can sometimes clog it up. 
• Descale your machine according to the descaling solution manufacturer’s instructions. This is needed to be done more frequently in areas with lime-rich water.
  
  

NO COFFEE COMES OUT, ONLY WATER 

• Make sure an unused capsule is placed in the coffee capsule inlet. 
• Make sure that the capsule you are using is compatible with the machine. 
• Make sure that the capsule inlet lever is fully pulled down and engaged. 
  
  

COFFEE CAPSULE IS STUCK INSIDE THE CAPSULE INLET  

• Push the capsule inlet lever up and press any button to let the water pressure dislodge the capsule. 
• As soon as the capsule has been removed, turn off the machine to prevent any water from splashing out. 
• If a capsule has dried out and gotten stuck, pour some water on it to soften it up. 
  
  

FACTORY RESET  

• Turn the machine OFF. 
• Press and hold the lungo button and turn the machine ON while still pressing the button.
