pipework and damage the coffee
system.
If you use dairy milk, use only
~
pasteurized milk.
8
–
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For machines with stainless
steel trim:
Do not use sticky notes, transparent
~
adhesive tape, masking tape or other
types of adhesive on the surface of the
trim. These damage the surface,
causing it to lose its dirt repellent
protective coating.
The surface of the stainless steel
~
trim is susceptible to scratching. Even
magnets can cause scratches to
appear.
Preparing your appliance for
an extended vacation
If you elect to turn off the water to
~
your home for an extended period of
time, please note that this may not be

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

Adjust the coffee grinder one level
at a time.
Let the beans grind before adjusting
another notch.
You can also adjust the grinder setting
to suit the type of coffee you are using.
Grinder setting
When the beans are ground correctly
the coffee or espresso will flow evenly
into the cup and have a good crema.
The ideal crema has a hazel coloring.
There are various ways to tell whether
the coffee grinder is set correctly.
The grind is too coarse if
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
too quickly;
– the crema is very pale and uneven.
Use a finer grinder setting so the coffee
beans will be ground more finely.
The grind is too fine if
–
espresso or coffee flows into the cup
very slowly;
–
the crema is dark brown.
Use a coarser grinder setting so the
coffee beans will be ground more
coarsely.
Open the appliance door.
^
^ Push the grinder slide control to the
left by no more than one level (for a
finer grind) or to the right (for a
coarser grind).
^
Close the appliance door.
^
Prepare a coffee beverage.
Then you can adjust the grinder by
another level.
The adjusted grinder setting will only
take effect after the second coffee
portion.
