Before First Use
• Operate the coffee machine for the first

Making Coffee
The quality of the water that you use de-
termines the taste of your coffee. You must
ensure that the water is freshly drawn from
the tap (so that it has not had the time to
stagnate in the air), that it does not smell of
chlorine and that it is at a fairly cold tempe-
rature.
We recommend that you filter your water
using a Krups Duo Filter cartridge, refe-
rence XS 1000.
