Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging 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 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. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

8
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).

24

Filling the coffee bean container

Coffee or Espresso can be made from whole roasted coffee beans which are freshly ground for each portion. This requires the coffee bean container to be filled with coffee beans.
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.
Open the appliance door.
There are two bean container drawers at the top right and left of the coffee machine. The coffee beans from all three bean containers are mixed together when ground.
Pull out the coffee bean containers.Remove each lid and fill the bean
containers with roasted coffee beans.
Close the bean containers with their
respective lids.
Insert the coffee bean container
drawers fully in the coffee machine. Close the appliance door.
25

Filling the water container

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.
Pour out the water from the water container if a drink has not been prepared for a long time.
Risk of damage due to incorrect
operation. Unsuitable liquids such as hot or
warm water or other liquids can damage the coffee machine. Carbonated water leaves too much limescale in the coffee machine.
Only use cold, fresh tap water to fill the water container.
Open the appliance door.
Pull the water container out to
remove it.
Fill the water container with cold,
fresh tap water up to the “max.” mark.
Insert the water container in the
machine and close the appliance door.
26

Switching on and off

Switching the coffee machine on

Touch the On/Off sensor.
The coffee machine heats up and rinses the pipework. Hot water will run out of the central spout.
You can now make drinks.
If the coffee machine is already at operating temperature, rinsing will not take place.
While dispensing a drink or during maintenance processes, moisture builds up in the coffee machine. The internal fan expels moisture from the interior of the appliance. The fan will continue to run after dispensing a drink or for approx. 30minutes after switching off the appliance. You will hear an accompanying noise.

Switching the coffee machine off

Touch the On/Off sensor.
Clean all parts thoroughly, including
the brew unit and the interior of the machine.
Switch the coffee machine off.
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. if you are going on holiday, please do the following:
Empty the drip tray, the waste
container and the water container.
27

Spout adjustment

The height of the central spout cannot be manually adjusted.
Before making the drink, the central spout moves down and the cup sensor stops it at the optimum height for the cups or glasses being used.
When the coffee machine is switched off, the central spout moves to a medium height.
When a maintenance programme is being carried out, the central spout will move to the height of the cleaning container or into a lower maintenance position.
Ensure the central spout is in either the upper or middle position before opening the door.
28

Making drinks

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.

Making coffee drinks with and without milk

The following drinks can be made:
Ristretto is a strong, concentrated
espresso. It is prepared with the same amount of coffee as for an espresso but with much less water.
Espresso is a strong aromatic coffee
with a thick hazelnut brown coloured froth - known as the crema - on top. We recommend using espresso roasted 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 with the appropriate roast to make the coffee.
Cappuccino consists of approx. 2/3
milk froth and 1/3 espresso.
Latte macchiato consists of 1/3
each of hot milk, milk froth and espresso.
Caffè latte consists of hot milk and
espresso.
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 is an espresso
with a small amount of milk froth on top.
Flat white is a special variation of the
cappuccino: a much greater amount of espresso compared to milk froth creates an intensive coffee aroma.
Café au lait is a French coffee
speciality made from coffee and milk froth. Café au lait is normally served in a bowl.
Hot milk or milk froth can also be made separately.
Long coffee is a coffee with
considerably more water.
Long black is made with hot water
and two shots of espresso.
Caffè Americano consists of equal
proportions of espresso and hot water. The espresso is made first, then the hot water is dispensed.
29
Making drinks

Preparing hot milk

Additives containing sugar or milk alternatives, e.g. soy milk, can clog the milk pipework and milk carrying parts. Residues from unsuitable liquids may adversely affect correct preparation.
Do not use milk with additives. Use only pasteurised cow's milk.
Useful 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 full cream milk (at least3.5% fat), the milk froth will be slightly creamier than with low­fat milk.

Milk flask

Milk is not cooled in the milk flask. Use cold milk (<10°C) to produce a good quality milk froth.

Filling and fitting the milk flask

Fill the milk flask with milk up to a
maximum of 2cm below the rim. Seal the milk flask with the lid.
Push the milk flask into the coffee
machine until it clicks into place.
Useful tip: The milk flask is easier to remove with two hands.

Tea
This coffee 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:
Japanese tea is a high quality green
tea and has a delicate, fresh, “green” flavour. Dispensing temperature: approx.65°C; brewing time: approx.1.5minutes
White tea is a green tea where only
the young buds of the tea plant, which are still white, are used and processed very gently. White tea has a particularly mild flavour. Dispensing temperature: approx.70°C; brewing time: approx.2minutes
Green tea gets its green colour from
the leaves of the tea plant. The tea leaves are processed gently in different ways – either roasted or steamed – depending on the region. Green tea can be infused multiple times. Dispensing temperature: approx.80°C; brewing time: approx.2.5minutes
Black tea gets its dark colour and
typical flavour from the fermentation of the tea leaves. Black tea can be drunk with a little lemon or with milk. Dispensing temperature: approx.97°C; brewing time: approx.3minutes
Chai tea has its origins in the
traditional Ayurveda medicine as a black tea with typically Indian spices and milk. The milk mellows the spices and tops off the flavour experience. Dispensing temperature: approx.97°C; brewing time: approx.3minutes
Herbal tea is an aromatic infusion
drink made up of dried leaves or fresh parts of plants. Dispensing temperature: approx.97°C; brewing time: approx.8minutes
Fruit tea consists of dried pieces of
fruit and/or parts of plants, e.g. rose hip. The flavour varies depending on the plants used and their blend. Many fruit teas are also flavoured. Dispensing temperature: approx.97°C; brewing time: approx.8minutes
The type of tea determines the preset temperature. The respective dispensing temperatures are recommended by Miele for making these types of tea.
You can change the dispensing temperatures of individual teas by changing the brewing temperature for a particular tea (see “Parameters ­Brewing temperature”). Temperatures given are approximate and can vary according to ambient conditions.
Whether you use loose tea leaves, blended tea or tea bags depends on your own personal preferences.

Amount of coffee

The coffee machine can grind and brew
7.5–12.5g 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:
– 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:
– the altitude of the region.
Useful tip: Not all types of coffee tolerate high temperatures. Several types are sensitive to high temperatures, resulting in an impaired crema and taste.
You can also adjust the brewing temperature for tea drinks, warm water and hot water.

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.
– 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

Electrical connection

Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) matches the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The necessary connection information is given on the data plate inside your appliance.
The fuse rating must be at least 10A.
The socket must be easily accessible. If the socket is no longer accessible after installation, an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles. Suitable means of disconnection include switches with an all-pole contact gap of at least 3mm. These include isolator switches, circuit breakers and relays.
Installation
Do not connect the machine to an inverter. Inverters are used for autonomous power supply, e.g. a solar power system. When switched on, peak loads in the system can cause the safety switch-off mechanism to be triggered. This may damage the electronic unit.
The machine must not be used with so­called energy saving plugs. These reduce the amount of energy supplied to the machine, causing it to overheat.

Building in the coffee machine

Danger of injury due to incorrect
installation. Personal injury can result from an
incorrectly installed, and therefore unsecured, appliance.
The coffee machine can only be operated once it has been built in.
Risk of damage to property due
to incorrect operation. If the ambient temperature range is
not complied with, the coffee machine may not function correctly.
The coffee machine may only be operated in an ambient temperature range between +16°C and +38°C.
A minimum installation height of 850mm must be maintained.
Ensure that a door opening angle of 120° is present so that the bean container on the left can be removed.
be opened wide enough to remove the bean container on the left (minimum door opening angle of 120°).
A TX20 screwdriver is required for installation.
Useful tip: We recommend providing a place to sit the coffee machine which is the same height as the building-in niche. This will make it easier to connect the machine to the electricity supply.

Connecting to the mains electricity supply

Observe the instructions in “Electrical connection”.
Connect the coffee machine to the
mains electricity supply.

Pushing in and levelling the coffee machine

Ensure the mains connection cable does not get jammed or damaged when pushing the appliance into the niche.
Check whether there is a gap of at least 299mm between the wall or similar and the coffee machine so that the door can

Push the coffee machine all the way
into the building-in niche.
Check the height of the coffee
machine to make sure that it is sitting centrally in the niche and that it is level. If this is not the case, realign the machine using the four feet.
Do not adjust the door hinges to align the coffee machine. This could result in the milk flask not being able to be fitted correctly and milk preparation may not function properly.

Installation
2 TX20 screws (25mm) are supplied.
Secure the coffee machine to the side
walls of the housing unit using the screws supplied. Tighten the screws by hand.
Useful tip: You can remove the door opening limiters and increase the door opening angle to 170° so that the screw on the left can be screwed in more easily. (see “Door opening limiters”). Check whether there is enough room and that the appliance door does not hit an adjacent wall.
Check the operation of the coffee
machine.
You can remove the door opening limiters to increase the opening angle to approx. 170°. This allows the bean containers to be removed more easily, for example.

Removing the door opening limiters

Check whether there is enough room and that the appliance door does not hit an adjacent wall when the door opening angle is increased.

Door opening limiters

The door hinges of the coffee machine are equipped with door opening limiters that limit the opening angle of the appliance door to approx. 120°. These prevent the appliance door from hitting an adjacent wall when opened and being damaged.
Remove the door opening limiters
from the hinges by levering them out with a screwdriver, for example.
The door opening angle is now increased to approx. 170°.
