Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging material protects the
appliance from transport damage. The
packaging materials used are selected
from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal
and can therefore be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material
reduces the use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites. Your dealer will take the
packaging material away.
Disposal of the Miele descaling
cartridge
Dispose of the used Miele descaling
cartridge in your household waste.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the
appliance being disposed of. Please
ensure that your old appliance poses no
risk to children while being stored prior
to disposal.

Bean system
Coffee or Espresso can be made from
whole roasted coffee beans which are
freshly ground for each portion.
Your coffee machine has a bean system
with three bean containers which can
be filled with different types of beans or
even just one type. You can allocate
bean types to individual coffee drinks
as you wish. Alternatively, you can
create profiles with your own coffee
drinks and allocate other bean types to
these drinks which are different to the
Miele profiles.
Alternatively, you can make coffee
drinks with ready ground coffee (see
“Making coffee drinks with ground
coffee”).
Risk of damage to the grinder
due to incorrect operation.
The coffee machine will be damaged
if the bean container is filled with
unsuitable substances such as
liquids, ground coffee or coffee
beans treated with sugar, caramel or
similar.
In addition, green (unroasted) coffee
beans or mixtures of coffee beans
which contain green coffee beans
can damage the grinder. Green
coffee beans are very hard and still
contain residual moisture. These can
damage the coffee machine grinder
as soon as grinding begins.
Only put roasted coffee beans in the
bean container.
Tip: You can use a nut or seed grinder
to grind green coffee beans. These
types of grinder generally have a
rotating stainless steel blade. You can
then add the ground green coffee oneportion at a time to the ground coffee
chute and make the desired coffee
drink (see “Making coffee drinks with
ground coffee”).
If decaffeinated coffee beans are
used after dispensing a drink with
caffeinated beans, there may still be
residues from the caffeinated beans
in the grinder or brew chamber.
Please be aware that minimal
residues of caffeinated beans may
be present in the next drink that you
make.

Risk to health due to
contaminated water.
Bacteria can develop in water which
has been sitting in the water
container for too long and is a risk to
your health.
Change the water in the water
container every day.
Risk of damage due to incorrect
operation.
Unsuitable liquids such as hot or
warm water or other liquids can
damage the coffee machine.
Bottled mineral water leaves too
much limescale in the coffee
machine.
Only use cold, fresh tap water to fill
the water container.
If the water container is not inserted
correctly (e.g. sits too high or at an
angle), water can leak from the outlet
valve.

Making coffee with and without milk
The following drinks with milk can be
made:
- Ristretto is a strong, concentrated
espresso. It is prepared with the
same amount of coffee as for an
espresso but with a lot less water.
- Espresso is a strong aromatic coffee
with a thick hazelnut brown coloured
froth – known as the crema – on top.
We recommend using espressoroasted coffee beans to make an
espresso.
- Coffee differs from espresso by the
increased amount of water and the
roast of the beans.
We recommend using coffee beans
of the correct roast to make the
coffee.
- Long coffee is a coffee with
considerably more water.
- Long black. This is made with hot
water and two shots of espresso.
Danger of burning and scalding

The following drinks with milk can be
made:
- Cappuccinoconsists of approx.
2thirds milk froth and 1third
espresso.
- Latte macchiato consists of 1third
each of hot milk, milk froth and
espresso.
- Caffè latte consists of coffee and hot
milk.
- Cappuccino italiano has the same
proportions of milk froth and
espresso as a cappuccino. The
difference is that the espresso is
added first and then the milk froth.
- Espresso macchiato. This is an
espresso with a small amount of milk
froth on top.
Select a cup which can hold at least
100ml for this drink.
- Flat white is a large cappuccino: lots
of espresso with plenty of milk froth.
- Café au lait. This is an espresso with
slightly hotter milk.
Hot milk or milk froth can also be
made.
Tip: Using cold cow's milk (<10°C)
with a protein content of at least 3%
will produce the perfect milk froth.
You can select milk with a fat content
according to preference. With whole
milk (at least3.5% fat), the milk froth
will be slightly creamier than with lowfat milk.
Danger of burning and scalding
on the dispensing spouts.
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep well away from the area
underneath the spouts when hot
liquids and steam are being
dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
Milk or milk alternatives (e.g. soy
milk) containing added sugar can
clog up the milk pipe and the rest of
the milk pipework. Residues from
unsuitable liquids can interfere with
milk preparation.
The milk used must not contain any
additives.
Only use pasteurised cow’s milk.
As soon as you select a drink
containing milk, the machine will start to
heat up. The milk will be drawn up into
the central spout where it is heated by
steam and also frothed for drinks
requiring milk froth.
If you have not made any milk drinks
for a while, rinse the milk pipework
thoroughly before making the first
drink.
Tip: The milk pipework is easier to
connect to the aperture in the central
spout if the central spout is in the
maintenance position. Touch the
button for 3seconds.
38
You can prepare milk with the milk
siphon or milk flask.

into the milk flask lid.
The appliance is supplied with the
connecting piece already inserted into
the milk flask lid. The connecting piece
is easy to push out from the inside of
the milk flask lid.
Using a milk carton with the
milk siphon
The milk siphon enables you to prepare
milk directly from milk cartons or other
suitable containers.
Making coffee with milk

Tea
Danger of burning and scalding
on the hot water spout!
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep well away from the area
underneath the hot water spout
when hot liquids and steam are
being dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
This machine is not intended for
commercial or scientific purposes.
Temperatures given are approximate
and can vary according to ambient
conditions.
To make tea you can select from the
following options:
- Green tea approx.80°C
- Herbal tea approx.90°C
- Fruit tea approx.90°C
- Black tea approx.90°C
The type of tea determines the preset
temperature.
The respective dispensing temperatures
are recommended by Miele for making
black tea, green tea, herbal or fruit tea.
The amount of tea and the brewing time
will vary depending on the type of tea.
Always follow the recommendations of
the manufacturer on the packaging or
of the retailer. The amount of hot water
used can be adjusted depending on the
type of tea and the size of the cup (see
“Portion size”)
Tip: Store the tea in a cool, dark place
in tightly sealed containers. It is best to
buy smaller amounts to prevent loss of
aroma.
TeaTimer
You can use the TeaTimer to start a
minute minder when making tea. A
brewing time of 2minutes is preset as
standard. You can adjust the preset
brewing time according to your

The TeaTimer can be started twice
consecutively.
If you have started a TeaTimer, while
the brewing time is counting down you
can continue to use the coffee machine
as normal. An audible tone will sound
after the brewing time has elapsed.
Follow the instructions for making
tea on the tea packaging.
The taste of the tea will be affected by
the type of water used. Water should be
as soft as possible to allow the aroma
to develop.
Whether you use loose tea leaves,
blended tea or tea bags depends on
your own personal preference.
If you have switched off audible tones,
you will not be reminded when the
brewing time has finished.

The amount of coffee is too high, if
- espresso or coffee flows into the cup
very slowly,
- the crema is dark brown,
- the espresso or coffee tastes bitter.
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.
Brewing temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on
- the type of coffee being used,
- whether an espresso or a coffee is
being made, and
- the air pressure in the region.
Tip: Not all types of coffee tolerate high
temperatures. Several types are
sensitive to high temperatures, resulting
in an impaired crema and taste.
Ground quantity
The coffee machine can grind and brew
7.5–12.5g of coffee beans per cup. The
greater the quantity, the stronger the
coffee.
There are various ways to tell whether
the amount of coffee is set correctly:
The amount of coffee is too low if
Pre-brewing the ground coffee
When you select pre-brewing, the
coffee is moistened with a little hot
water initially after it is ground. The
remaining amount of water is then
pressed through the moistened coffee
grounds shortly after. This releases the
aromas of the coffee better.

Water hardness
If a descaling cartridge is not fitted
and you descale the coffee machine
using descaling tablets, the machine
should be set to the local water
hardness. A prompt to descale the
machine will then appear in the
display at the correct time.
Programme the coffee machine to the
water hardness level of your area so
that it functions correctly and does not
get damaged.
Contact your local water supplier to find
out your local water hardness range if
necessary.
If you are using bottled drinking water,
e.g. mineral water, select settings
according to the calcium content. The
calcium content is specified on the label
of the bottle in mg/lCa2+ or ppm
(mgCa2+/l).
Do not use carbonated water.
Tip: If your water hardness is >21°dH
(3.8mmol/l), we recommend using
bottled drinking water instead
(<150mg/lCa2+). This will mean your
coffee machine will need to be
descaled less often and there will be
less impact on the environment
because less descaling agent will be
used.
The machine is programmed ex-works
to hardness level3.

Descaling the machine
Risk of damage from spilt descaling
solution.
Sensitive surfaces and/or natural
floors can suffer damage.
Wipe up any spillages of descaling
agent immediately.
Limescale builds up in the coffee
machine through use. How often the
appliance needs to be descaled will
depend on the water hardness level in
your area. Limescale must be removed
regularly.
Depending on how you use your
machine and the water hardness level
in your area, occasionally you will
need to descale your machine
manually in addition to automatic
descaling.
If a descaling cartridge is not fitted, an
empty cartridge is fitted or an expired
cartridge is fitted, the machine needs to
be descaled regularly using the Descale
the machine maintenance programme.

Cleaning and care
85
Automatic descaling
Risk of damage from spilt descaling
solution.
Sensitive surfaces and/or natural
floors can suffer damage.
Wipe up any spillages of descaling
agent.
When handling a cartridge which has
already been filled with water, ensure
that the descaling solution does not
come into contact with sensitive
surfaces.
The coffee machine has an automatic
maintenance programme for descaling
the machine. For automatic descaling, a
Miele descaling cartridge is fitted at the
back of the coffee machine. The coffee
machine will automatically determine
the days when to carry out automatic
descaling based on the usage pattern.
Automatic descaling takes
approx.4hours, including the activation
time.
You can set the time for automatic
descaling to start using the Descaling
timer.
Water is mixed with the descaling agent
to create a solution for automatic
descaling. This descaling solution is
then pumped through the pipework of
the coffee machine. After the activation
time, the solution is then rinsed out of
the pipework and the machine can then
be used as normal for making drinks.
During automatic descaling you will
hear pumping and rinsing noises at
frequent intervals even though the
appliance is switched off and the
display is dark.
To ensure the longevity of
components and a consistent
environment free of limescale, the
coffee machine needs to be manually
descaled from time to time. The
intervals are determined by your
usage behaviour and the water
hardness level of your area. If you
make a lot of coffees with milk, for
example, you will need to descale the
coffee machine more frequently with
the descaling tablets.
Please note before and during
automatic descaling:
The coffee machine must be ready to
use and the following conditions must
be met:
- A descaling cartridge which is ready
to use is fitted.
- The coffee machine is connected to
the electricity supply. The coffee
machine must not be disconnected
from the electricity supply during
automatic descaling.
- The drip tray, brew unit and central
spout are inserted.
- The water container is inserted and is
filled with water at least up to the
descaling mark.
- Carry out the instructions which
appear in the display before
switching off, e.g. Empty the drip tray.
- The milk pipe is inserted into the
aperture in the drip tray.
- The coffee machine is switched off.
If you do not make any drinks,
automatic descaling will not be started.
86
Automatic descaling
The Miele descaling cartridge
Only use the Miele descaling
cartridge for the automatic descaling
programme.
Please note that the Miele descaling
cartridge has a lifespan of approx.
one year after it has been placed in
the machine and filled with water for
the first time. Critical for the one-year
shelf life is the date on which the
descaling cartridge was fitted and
filled with water.
Do not fit a descaling cartridge which
has already been used in another
Miele coffee machine. Your coffee
machine will have no information
about the fill level of this cartridge.
The descaling effect may be
insufficient and damage your coffee
machine.
Do not fill the descaling cartridge
with other fluids or substances.
The descaling agent comes in the form
of tablets in the descaling cartridge.
The cartridge is filled with water when it
is placed in the machine. The tablets
gradually dissolve over time.
The Miele descaling cartridge will last
for 7 to 12 months of automatic
descaling, depending on how often the
coffee machine is used.
The descaling cartridge is available to
order from the Miele online shop or
directly from Miele (see back cover for
contact details).
If a descaling cartridge is not fitted, an
empty cartridge is fitted or an expired
cartridge is fitted, the machine needs
to be descaled using the Descale the
machine maintenance programme. To
do this, the appropriate descaling
agent is required (see “Cleaning and
care - Descaling the machine”).
The descaling cartridge can remain
fitted even if the machine is not used for
a long time. Remove the cartridge
before transporting the coffee machine.
Please note:
- Once filled with water, the descaling
cartridge has a maximum shelf life of
three weeks outside of the machine.
- It should be transported with care
and upright. Avoid shaking it.
Shaking or turning upside down
reduces the shelf life or damages the
cartridge.
- The cartridge should be stored
upright, in a dark place and at room
temperature (16-38°C).
A prompt will appear in the display
shortly before the cartridge is depleted,
reminding you that it needs to be
replaced. Confirm the message with
OK. After this first message, six more
descaling programmes are possible.
