INSTALLATION - ADJUSTMENTS
Always add only coffee beans in the coffee
bean hopper (1). Pre-ground coffee, instant
coffee or any other object may damage the ma-
chine.
• Replace the cover on the coffee bean hopper (1).
• (Fig.5A) - Insert the plug into the socket on the back
of the machine.
• (Fig.5B) - Insert the plug of the other end of the power
cord into a wall socket with suitable power voltage.
• To turn on the machine simply press the power button
(17); the warning light (18) will begin to blink rapidly
indicating that the water circuit must be primed.
• (Fig.7) - To prime the water circuit, place a container
beneath the steam wand (Pannarello frother) (7);
• (Fig.8) - Turn the hot water knob (10) clockwise and
wait. A small set amount of water will come out of
the Pannarello, after which light (18) will blink slowly,
indicating that you can turn off the knob (10).
At this point, the temperature light (19) will begin to
blink slowly, indicating that the machine is in warm-up
mode.
Note: Before starting the machine after long
periods of inactivity or if the water tank has
been completely emptied, it is advisable to prime
the circuit.
When warm-up is complete, the machine
carries out a rinse cycle of the internal
circuits. A small amount of water will be dispensed;
in this phase the lights blink cyclically in a counter
clockwise direction. Wait for this cycle to be
completed automatically.
• When the above steps are complete, the machine is
ready for use.
• To brew coffee, dispense hot water or steam, and
for proper use of the machine, carefully follow the
instructions provided.

ADJUSTMENTS
The machine allows for certain adjustments that will
permit you to use it to its full potential.
5.1
Coffee Grinder Adjustment
Coffee is a natural product and its features
may change according to its origin and
blend. The Spidem coffee machine is equipped with
a self-adjusting system that allows using all types
of coffee beans available on the market (except
caramelized ones).
For this reason we recommend brewing several cups
of coffee before adjusting the coffee grinder.
Warning! The grinder adjustment knob, inside
the coffee bean hopper, must be turned only
when the grinder is running. Do not pour ground and/
or instant coffee into the coffee bean hopper.
Do not insert any material other than coffee
beans into the hopper. The grinder contains
moving parts that may be dangerous. Therefore, do
not insert Þ ngers and/or other objects. Switch the
power button to off and remove the plug from the
socket before carrying out any type of operation
inside the bean hopper. Do not pour coffee beans
when the grinder is working.
The machine lets you make slight adjustments to the
coffee grinder to adapt it to the kind of coffee used.
This adjustment is carried out by adjusting the knob
found on the inside of the coffee bean hopper; this
knob must be pressed and turned only with the grinder
adjustment key (22) provided with the coffee machine.
(Fig.28-29) - While the grinder is running, press and turn
the knob (with the supplied key) one notch at a time and
brew 2-3 cups of coffee; the grinder adjustment may only
be noticed in this way. The references located inside the
coffee bean hopper indicate the grind setting.
1 - Coarse Grind
2 - Medium Grind
3 - Fine Grind
