Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are recycled.
Disposal of your old appliance
or machine
Electrical and electronic appliances /
machines often contain materials
which, if handled or disposed of
incorrectly, could be potentially
hazardous to human health and to the
environment. They are, however,
essential for the correct functioning of
your appliance or machine. Please do
not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply by a competent person. The
plug must be rendered useless and the
cable cut off directly behind it to
prevent misuse. See the "Warning and
Safety" section of this booklet for further
details.

notes on installation, safety,
operation and care of the machine.
This machine is not a toy! To avoid
the risk of injury, do not allow
children to play on or near it, or to
play with the controls. Supervise its
use by the elderly and infirm.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and pass them on to
any future user.
Correct use
The machine is intended for
domestic use only for the
preparation of espresso, cappuccino
and coffee. Any other usage is not

Warning and Safety instructions
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk
assessment of the installation being
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by suitably
qualified and competent persons in
accordance with local and national
safety regulations. Repairs and other
work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous and the manufacturer will
not be held liable.
The machine is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– the mains fuse is withdrawn
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable)
– or it is switched off at the wall socket
and the the plug is removed. (Pull on
the plug, not the cable).
Never open the housing of the
machine. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous
to the user and can cause operational
faults or electric shock.
If the machine is to be built in
above another machine, there must
be a full-width, closed shelf between
them (except when it is combined with
a Miele built-in plate warming drawer).
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
machine and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage caused by cockroaches or
other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.
Use
Warning. Danger of scalding. The
liquids dispensed are very hot.
Keep children away from the
machine at all times, and supervise
them when you are using it. Their skin is
very sensitive and reacts to hot
temperatures. Danger of scalding.
Remember that coffee and espresso
are not suitable drinks for children.
Do not reach into the brew unit
when the machine is connected to
the electricity supply. Danger of injury.
Before making your first drink of
the day it is important to rinse the
machine through and make sure that
the steam spout and milk frother are
thoroughly clean before using them.
Only cold, fresh drinking water
should be used to fill the water
container. Warm or hot water or other
liquids could damage the machine.
Change the water every day to prevent
a build up of bacteria.
Do not on any account use mineral
water. Mineral water will cause
serious limescale deposits to build up
in your machine and damage it.

Warning and Safety instructions
Never put anything other than
Nespresso coffee capsules in the
capsule magazine. Other
manufacturer’s capsules etc. would
damage the machine.
The coffee capsules must be intact
before use. Do not use coffee
capsules which are damaged, broken
or dented. These could become
jammed in the machine and damage it.
Never place a drink with ignited
alcohol under the spout of the
coffee machine. The flames could melt
plastic components and cause fire
damage.
The hot water and steam could
cause scalding. Be very careful
when using these functions. Make sure
you do not come into contact with hot
steam or hot water. The machine must
never be used for cleaning objects.
Do not use steam cleaning
apparatus to clean this machine.
Pressurised steam could reach the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Clean the machine every day to
prevent a build-up of bacteria.
Only use the descaling tablets
supplied by Miele and follow the
instructions on the packet carefully. Use
the exact proportions recommended to
avoid damage to the machine.
How quickly the capsule plate
becomes soiled will depend on the
natural oils in the coffee used. We
recommend that you clean the capsule
plate every 1 to 2 months with a
cleaning tablet.
Never swing from or hang anything
on the front when it is open as this
could damage the machine.
Disposal of your old machine
Before throwing an old machine
away, switch it off and disconnect it
from the power supply. Cut off the cable
directly behind it, then cut off the plug
and render it useless to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
The machine should be descaled
regularly, depending on the
hardness of the water, with the
descaling tablets supplied. The harder
the water, the more often the machine
must be descaled. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for damage
arising from insufficient descaling.
10
Brief description
The capsule magazine can hold up to
20 coffee capsules. These 20 coffee
capsules are divided between 5
chambers. This means that the capsule
magazine can be filled with 5 differenttypes of coffee. These 5 different types
are programmed into the machine so
that the type required can be selected
from the display.
If the machine is used by various
people with different tastes and
preferences, you can programme
specific settings for up to four
individual users.
There is no need to remove each
individual spent capsule as the used
coffee capsules drop down
automatically into a waste container.
The coffee capsules can be disposed
of with your normal household waste.
The size of cup can be programmed in
so that the correct amount is
dispensed. If you decide to use a
smaller cup than the programmed cupsize, preparation can be halted at any
time by pressing the right-hand control
dial.
If a double portion of coffee or
espresso is required, a double portion
can be selected. The machine will
then prepare two portions one after the
other.
The hot water function is ideal for
pre-warming the cups.
The machine features a system lock to
prevent children from operating it.
The easy-to-use programming facility
allows, amongst other things, the
language in the display to be changed
and the water hardness to be
programmed in.
To ensure that the flavour can develop
fully and be maintained for longer, the
machine has an additional function for
automatically rinsing the system
when the machine is cold. The same
function is used to flush coffee remains
out of the system and the spout after
use.
The machine can be programmed to
switch to stand-by mode so it is always
ready for operation but does not
consume unnecessary electricity. This
can be programmed to happen
between 20 minutes and 2 hours after
coffee was last dispensed. It is
therefore important to set the correct
time of day.
You can also programme the machine
to switch on and off at a particular
time every day.

Setting the water hardness
For trouble-free operation of the coffee machine, and to
ensure that the descaling reminder appears in the right
display at the appropriate time, it is important to programme
the machine for the water hardness level in your area. The
water hardness level indicates how much calcium is
dissolved in the water. The higher the calcium content, the
harder the water, and the harder the water, the more often the
machine will need to be descaled.
The machine measures the amount of water which has been
taken in (including the amount required for producing steam).
The amount of water which the machine can use before it
needs to be descaled will depend on the water hardness
level set. Less water will be used in hard water areas than in
soft water areas.
Your local water authority will be able to tell you the hardness
of water in your area. Alternatively, you can measure the
hardness yourself using the enclosed test strip:
26
^
Dip the strip in your drinking water for approximately a
second, then shake off any excess water.
The results will be evident after about 1 minute.
If the water is harder than 40 °d / 7.0 mmol/l, limescale will
build up more rapidy than with soft water. Descaling will
need to be carried out more regularly than stated to
prevent limescale damage to the machine.
Use programming option "Water hardness" to programme in
your water hardness level.
