IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Technical safety
~Installation work and repairs must only be performed by a trained technician in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unauthorized persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
~A damaged coffee system can be dangerous. Before installing the coffee machine, check for externally visible damage. Do not operate a damaged unit.
~Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy, of an effective grounding system.
~To prevent damage to the coffee machine, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) matches the electrical power supply. Check this before connecting the machine.
If in doubt, contact a qualified electrician.
~Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (danger of overheating).
~For safety reasons, this coffee machine may only be used once it has been safely installed.
~If the machine is installed in combination with other appliances, a protective base should be installed between the appliance and the unit.
~The coffee machine must not be used in mobile installations such as boats.
~Only use the coffee machine in ambient temperatures between +50°F/10°C and +100°F/38 °C.
~Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation around the coffee machine. The ventilation openings in the surrounding cabinets and the space
below the ceiling must be at least 78 3/4"2 (200 cm2). Otherwise condensation can form, causing
damage to the coffee machine or the surrounding cabinets.
~Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
~If the coffee machine is installed in a closed kitchen cabinet, use the coffee machine only when the cabinet door is open. Do not close the cabinet door when the coffee machine is in operation.
~Only use Miele original spare parts. Only then can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of this machine.
~Before service or maintenance disconnect the power supply by either removing the fuse, “tripping” the circuit breaker or unplugging the unit.
6
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
~Never open the outer casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is dangerous and may cause machine damage.
~Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact Miele.
~Always attach the cord to the appliance first, then plug it into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn the machine off, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
~Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
~To reduce the risk of injury, do not drape cord over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
~Do not damage or kink the cover of the water intake hose.
~To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons do not immerse cord, plugs, or coffee machine in water or other liquid.
Proper use
,The coffee and hot water dispensers present a danger of burning or scalding!
The dispensed liquids and steam are extremely hot.
The water in the drip tray may be very hot as well. Be careful when emptying it.
Please note:
–Keep away from the areas under the coffee and hot water dispensers when beverages or steam are being dispensed.
–Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
–The spouts can spray hot liquid or steam. Be sure the main dispenser is fitted correctly and only use it if it is clean.
,Never look into the lighting directly or with an optical instrument.
~Do not use the coffee machine to clean objects.
~Before the first use, clean the coffee system and milk container thoroughly (see "Cleaning and care").
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
~Please note the following regarding water:
–Only fill the water container with cold, fresh tap water. Hot water or other liquids can damage the coffee machine.
–Change the water every day to prevent a build-up of bacteria.
–Do not use mineral water. Mineral water will cause serious lime scale deposits to build up in your coffee machine and damage it.
–Do not use water from reverse osmosis units. The machine could be damaged.
~Fill the bean container only with roasted whole coffee beans. Do not fill the bean container with coffee beans which have been treated or with ground coffee.
~Sugar will damage the machine! Do not use coffee beans which have been treated with caramel, sugar, or similar, and do not fill the coffee machine with other sugar-containing liquids.
~Do not fill anything but ground coffee or a Miele cleaning tablet for degreasing the brew unit into the ground coffee chute.
~Only use plain milk. Most sugary additives can clog the coffee system. This will damage the coffee machine.
~Never place a cup with a burning alcohol-coffee mixture underneath the main dispenser. This could cause plastic parts of the coffee machine to catch fire and melt.
~Do not lean on the open coffee machine door, or apply any pressure to it. Otherwise, the coffee machine could be damaged.
~The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
~Please note the following with regard to cleaning the coffee machine:
–Before cleaning and maintenance switch off the appliance and disconnect circuit breaker.
–Clean the coffee system and milk container daily (see "Cleaning and care").
–The steam dispensed by a steam cleaner can reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean the coffee machine.
–Descale the coffee machine regularly with the appropriate number of Miele descaling tablets for the water hardness level in your area. Descale the machine more frequently in areas with very hard water.
–Degrease the brew unit regularly with the supplied Miele cleaning tablets. Depending on the natural oil content of the coffee used, the brew unit can become blocked quite quickly.

Water hardness
Water hardness is an indication of the amount of minerals dissolved in water. The higher the mineral content, the harder the water. And the harder the water, the more often the coffee machine will need to be descaled.
The coffee machine monitors the quantity of water and steam used. The number of beverages that can be dispensed before the machine needs to be descaled will depend on the water hardness level set.
Set the water hardness level on the coffee machine to the water hardness level for the local area to ensure that the machine functions correctly and is not damaged. This will ensure that the reminder to descale the machine will appear in the display at the correct time. If unsure of your water hardness contact your local water authority.
You can program four hardness levels on the machine:
