Packaging material / Disposal of old machine

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.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. 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.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances 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. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre.

Ensure that your old appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

 Repairs and installation work by unqualified persons could be

dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work. Installation work and repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service technician.

 A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check it for any visible

damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.

 Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure

that the rating on the data plate corresponds to the voltage and frequency of the household supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

 Reliable and safe operation of the coffee machine can only be

guaranteed if it is connected to the mains electrical supply.

 Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by a

multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

 This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile

installations (e.g. on a ship).

 For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has

been built in.

 If the coffee machine is to be built in above another appliance,

there must be a full-width, closed shelf between them (except in combination with a built-in Miele plate warming drawer).

Warning and Safety instructions

 Only use the coffee machine in rooms where the ambient

temperature is between +10°C and +38°C.

 Do not cover or block the ventilation gaps.

This would prevent adequate ventilation. Condensation can damage the coffee machine or the furniture housing unit.

 Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation around the coffee

machine. Otherwise condensate may form and the appliance or the furniture unit may be damaged. The ventilation cut-out area in the furniture unit and the space underneath the ceiling must amount to at least 200 cm2.

 If the coffee machine is installed behind a kitchen furniture door, it

may only be used with the furniture door open. This will prevent the formation of heat and humidity and subsequent damage to the appliance and/or furniture unit. Do not close the furniture door while the coffee machine is in use. Ensure the coffee machine has cooled down completely before closing the furniture door.

 Repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised service

technician. Repairs by unqualified persons can cause considerable danger to the user.

 Before any repair work is carried out, the appliance must be

completely disconnected from the electricity supply. The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

– the mains fuse is disconnected, or

– it is switched off at the circuit breaker, or

– the mains connection cable is disconnected from the power

supply. Pull the plug, not the cord, to disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

 The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is

not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.

 Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele

Original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

 Never open the outer casing 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.

 Use only Miele Original spare parts. If spare parts or accessories

from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

 The dispensing spouts present a danger of burning or scalding. The liquids and steam dispensed are very hot.

 Please note:

– Keep well away from the area underneath the spouts when hot

liquids and steam are being dispensed.

– Heating surfaces have residual heat after use. Do not touch hot

components.

– Hot liquid or steam could spatter from the nozzles. Ensure that

the central spout is clean and fitted correctly.

– Water in the drip tray can also be very hot. Take care when

emptying it.

 Never look directly at the lighting or use optical instruments to look at it.

 Please note the following regarding water:

– Fill the water container only with fresh, cold tap water. Hot or

warm water or other liquids could 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

limescale deposits to build up in your machine and damage it.

– Do not use water from reverse osmosis units. The machine could

be damaged.

 Only fill the bean container with roasted espresso/coffee beans.

Do not fill the bean container with coffee beans which have been treated with additives or with ground coffee. Do not fill the bean container with any type of liquid.

Warning and Safety instructions

 Do not use green (unroasted) coffee beans or mixtures of coffee

beans which contain green coffee beans. Green coffee beans are very hard and still contain a certain amount of residual moisture. These can damage the coffee machine grinder as soon as grinding begins.

 Do not use coffee beans which have been treated with caramel,

sugar or other substances. Sugar will damage the coffee machine.

 Only add ground coffee or cleaning tablets to the ground coffee

chute.

 Do not use any caramelised ready ground coffee. The sugar in the

coffee will stick to and block the brew unit of the coffee machine. The cleaning tablets for degreasing the brew unit will not remove this type of deposit.

 Only use milk without additives. Additives in milk usually contain

sugar and this will stick to the milk pipework.

 If using cow's milk, only use pasteurised milk to prevent a build-

up of bacteria in the appliance.

 Do not place any alcohol mixtures which are alight underneath the

central spout. The flames could ignite plastic components and cause them to melt.

 Do not swing from or hang anything on the appliance door when it

is open as this could damage the hinges on the coffee machine.

 The seal on the central spout connector is lubricated with silicone

grease. Try to avoid getting this grease on your clothing when removing and inserting containers or other components.

 The machine must not be used for cleaning objects.

Warning and Safety instructions

Cleaning and care

 It is important to switch off the coffee machine before any

cleaning or maintenance.

 Clean the coffee machine and the milk flask before using for the

first time (see "Cleaning and care").

 All parts of the milk system need to be cleaned thoroughly and

regularly. Milk contains bacteria which proliferate rapidly with inadequate cleaning.

 Do not clean the machine with a steam cleaner or immerse it in

water as this will damage the machine. Steam or water could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

 Avoid spillage on appliance connectors.  Descale the coffee machine regularly depending on the water

hardness level in your area. Descale the machine more frequently in areas with very hard water. Miele cannot be held liable for damage arising from insufficient descaling, the use of incorrect descaling agent or the use of descaling agent which is not of the appropriate concentration.

 Degrease the brew unit regularly with Miele cleaning tablets.

Depending on the natural oil content of the coffee used, the brew unit can become blocked quite quickly.

 Used coffee grounds should be disposed of with the organic

rubbish or on the compost heap. Do not empty them down the sink, as they could block it.

Warning and Safety instructions

The following applies to appliances with stainless steel surfaces:

 Do not adhere stickers, adhesive tape or any other adhesive

materials to stainless steel surfaces. The coating on the stainless steel surfaces will become damaged and lose its protective properties against soiling.

 Stainless steel scratches very easily and even magnets can cause

damage to the surface.

If the water container is a little high or not pushed in all the way, check whether the surface that the water container sits on is dirty. If the water container is not sitting correctly, the drainage valve will not be sealed. Clean the surface if necessary.

Filling the coffee bean container

Fill the coffee bean container with roasted coffee or espresso beans if you want to use freshly ground coffee beans for each cup of espresso or coffee.

Alternatively, you can make coffee or espresso with ready ground coffee (see "Making coffee or espresso using ready ground coffee").

Important! Risk of damage to the grinder.

Only put roasted coffee or espresso beans in the container. Anything else, including ground coffee, will damage the grinder.

Do not fill the bean container with any type of liquid.

Important! Sugar damages the coffee machine.

Do not use coffee beans that have been treated with sugar, caramel, or other substances and do not put liquids containing sugar in the coffee bean container.

Do not use green (unroasted) coffee beans or mixtures of coffee beans which contain green coffee beans. Green coffee beans are very hard and still contain a certain amount of residual moisture. These can damage the coffee machine grinder as soon as grinding begins.

Useful 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 portion by portion to the ground coffee chute and make the desired coffee drink (see "Making drinks with ready ground coffee").

 Pull out the coffee bean container.  Push back the lid and fill the

container with coffee beans.

 Slide the lid back into place.  Push the coffee bean container back

into the coffee machine and close the appliance door.

Switching the coffee machine on and off

Switching on

When the coffee machine is switched on, it heats up and rinses the pipework. This not only cleans the pipework, but also warms it before coffee is prepared.

Switching off

 Touch the On/Off sensor.

If coffee has been dispensed, the coffee machine will rinse the coffee pipework automatically before switching off.

Switching off for longer periods of time

If the coffee machine is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday:

 Empty the drip tray, the waste

container and the water container.

 Clean all components thoroughly,

including the brew unit, the central spout connector and the small drip tray located inside the door.

 Switch off the appliance.

If the appliance door is to be left open for a long time, it is advisable to switch off at the wall or the fuse to save energy.

Adjusting the central spout to the correct cup height

You can adjust the central spout to suit the height of the cup you are using so that the coffee or espresso will not cool down as quickly and the crema will have a better consistency.

 Pull the central spout down until it is

at the same level as the rim of the cup. Alternatively, push the central spout up until there is enough room to fit a larger cup or mug underneath.

Making drinks

 The dispensing spouts present a

danger of burning or scalding. The liquids and steam dispensed are very hot.

Keep well away from the area underneath the spouts when hot liquids and steam are being dispensed.

Do not touch hot components.

The following drinks can be made: – Espresso is a strong, aromatic

coffee with a thick hazelnut brown coloured layer of froth - known as the crema - on top. When making espresso, use espresso roasted coffee beans.

– Coffee differs from espresso by

the increased amount of water and the roast of the beans. Use coffee beans of the correct roast to make coffee.

– Long coffee is a coffee with

considerably more water.

Making a coffee drink

 Place a cup under the central spout.  Touch the sensor for the drink you

want:

Espresso Coffee  in Further programmes: Long coffee

Coffee the way you like it

In order to customise the coffee machine to the type of coffee being used, you can

– change the grinder setting,

– change the amount of coffee,

– set the brewing temperature, or

– pre-brew the coffee powder.

Grinder setting

When the beans are ground correctly, the coffee or espresso will flow evenly into the cup with a good crema. The crema should have an even nutbrown colour.

The grinder setting you select will be used for all coffee drinks.

There are various ways to tell whether the coffee grinder is set correctly.

The coffee has been too coarsely ground if:

– Espresso or coffee flows into the cup

too quickly.

To avoid damaging the grinder, please note the following:

Only adjust the grinder one setting at a time.

Grind the coffee beans again if you want to adjust the grinder to the next setting.

 Open the appliance door.

 Push the slide control one setting to

the left (for finer grinding) or one setting to the right (for coarser grinding).

 Close the appliance door.

– The crema is very pale and uneven.

Set a finer grinder setting.

The coffee has been too finely ground if:

– Espresso or coffee only trickles into

the cup.

– The crema is dark brown.

Set a coarser grinder setting.

 Dispense a coffee.

Then you can adjust the grinder setting with the slide control again.

The altered grinder setting will not be used until after the second coffee has been dispensed.

Coffee the way you like it

Amount of coffee, brew temperature and pre-brewing

You can adjust the amount of coffee, the brew temperature and pre-brewing individually for each coffee drink. To do this, first select the drink in the

Parameters menu, then the drink

parameters can be adjusted.

 Touch .  Select the drink you want and touch

OK.

The current settings for the amount of coffee, brewing temperature and prebrewing will be displayed for this drink.

 Select Amount of coffee, Brew

temperature or Pre-brewing.

 Select the setting you want and touch

OK.

The setting is now saved.

Amount of coffee

The coffee machine can grind and brew 6-14g of coffee beans per cup. The greater the quantity, the stronger the coffee.

– Espresso or coffee only trickles into

the cup.

– The crema is dark brown.

– The espresso or coffee tastes bitter.

Decrease the amount of coffee so that less ground coffee is brewed.

 Select Amount of coffee and touch OK.  Use the arrow sensors to change

the amount. Then touch OK.

The setting is now saved.

Useful tip: If the coffee is too strong for you or it tastes bitter, try a different type of bean.

There are various ways to tell whether the amount of coffee is set correctly.

The amount of coffee is too low if:

– Espresso or coffee flows into the cup

too quickly.

– The crema is very pale and uneven.

– The espresso or coffee lacks body.

Increase the amount of coffee so that more ground coffee is brewed.

The amount of coffee is too high if:

Coffee the way you like it

Brewing temperature

The ideal brewing temperature will depend on

– the type of coffee being used,

– whether an espresso or a coffee is

being prepared, and

– the altitude of the region.

If the coffee machine is located at more than 2000 metres above sea level, the brewing temperature needs to be set lower due to the change in pressure. This is because the boiling point for water at a high altitude above sea level is lower than the boiling point for water at sea level.

Useful tip: Not all types of coffee can withstand a high temperature. Certain types are too delicate - the crema on top would not be as good and the taste would be impaired.

The coffee machine has five brewing temperatures.

 Select Brew temperature and touch

OK.

Pre-brewing ground coffee

When the pre-brewing function is switched on, the freshly ground coffee is first moistened with a little hot water. Then the remaining water is forced through the moistened coffee at high pressure. This helps release the flavour of the coffee.

You can set pre-brewing for a normal length of time or an extra long length of time. Alternatively, you can switch off the "Pre-brewing" function. The machine is supplied with the "Prebrewing" function switched off.

 Touch the arrow sensors until

Pre-brewing is highlighted. Touch OK.

The pre-brewing option which is currently selected will be marked with a tick.

 Touch the arrow sensors until the

setting you want is highlighted. Touch OK.

The setting is now saved.

 Select the required temperature and

touch OK.

The setting is now saved.

Portion size

The flavour of the coffee produced depends on the type of coffee, how finely the beans are ground and the quantity of water used.You can programme the quantity of water according to the size of your cups and the type of coffee you are using.

For coffee drinks that use milk you can also set the amount of milk or milk froth to be dispensed with these drinks. Additionally, you can set the portion sizes for hot milk and milk froth alone.

Each type of drink has a maximum portion size that can be programmed into the machine. The coffee machine halts preparation of the coffee once this portion size has been reached. The maximum possible portion size for this type of drink is then saved in the machine.

The changed portion size is always saved in the current User profile. The name of the current User profile appears in the top-left of the display.

Changing the portion size during drink preparation

You can change and save the portion size for Espresso, Coffee, Cappuccino and Latte macchiato while making these drinks.

 Place a cup under the central spout.  Touch the sensor for the drink you

want until Change appears in the display.

The desired drink will be made and Save will appear in the display.

 When the cup is filled up to the level

you want, touchOK.

If you want to change the portion size for coffee specialities made with milk (e.g. Cappuccino), the ingredients (components) which make up the drink will be saved one after the other while the drink is being made.

 When the quantity for each ingredient

reaches the level you want, touch OK.

There are two ways of initiating the programming of the portion size:

– By touching the drink sensor when

you are preparing a coffee; or
