IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Correct use
Danger of burning and scalding at the dispensers.
The liquids and steam dispensed are very hot.
Keep away from the area underneath the dispensers when hot
liquids and steam are being dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
Hot liquid or steam could spatter from the nozzles. Ensure that the
main dispenser is clean and installed correctly.
Before opening the door, remove any containers from the drip tray
in the machine door.
Water in the drip tray can also be very hot. Take care when
emptying it.
Risk of injury to the eyes!
Never look at the lighting directly or using optical instruments (e.g.
magnifying glass).
Please note the following regarding water:
- The water quality must conform to the requirements for drinking
water in the country in which the coffee machine is being used.
- When using the water container: Only use cold, fresh tap water to
fill the water container. Hot or warm water or other liquids can
damage the coffee machine.
- Change the water every day to prevent a build-up of bacteria.
When using a plumbed-water connection: empty the water
container once a day.
- Do not use sparkling water.
Only put roasted coffee beans in the bean containers. Do not
place coffee beans which have been treated with additives or ground
coffee inside the bean containers.
Do not fill the bean containers with any type of liquid.
13
Page 14
IMPORTANT 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 residual moisture. These can damage the
coffee machine grinder as soon as grinding begins.
Do not use oily beans or beans that have been treated with
caramel, sugar, or other substances. Sugar and oil will damage the
coffee system.
If decaffeinated coffee beans are used after dispensing a drink
with caffeinated beans, there may still be residues from the
caffeinated beans in the grinder or brew chamber. Discard the first
coffee drink when using decaffeinated coffee.
Only use plain milk. Most sugary additives can clog the milk lines
and damage the machine.
If using dairy milk make sure that it has been pasteurized.
When making tea, please follow the instructions on the tea
packaging.
Do not place flaming alcohol mixtures underneath the main
dispenser. The flames could ignite plastic components and cause
them to melt.
Do not swing from or hang anything on the machine front when it
is open as this could damage the hinges of the machine.
Do not use the coffee system to clean objects.

Type of beans
Type AType B
Type C
Coffee or espresso can be made from
whole roasted coffee beans which are
freshly ground for each cup.
Your coffee machine has a bean system
with 3bean containers which can be
filled with different types of beans or
even just one type. You can allocate
bean types to individual coffee drinks
as you wish. Alternatively, you can

Danger of burning and scalding
at the dispensers.
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep away from the area underneath
the dispensers when hot liquids and
steam are being dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
Making coffee with and
without milk
The following drinks can be made:
- Ristretto is a concentrated, stronger
espresso. It is prepared with the
same amount of coffee as for an
espresso but with a lot less water.
- Espresso is a strong aromatic coffee
with a thick hazelnut-brown colored
froth – known as the crema – on top.
We recommend using espressoroasted 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
of the correct roast to make the
coffee.
- Capuccinoconsists of approx.
2thirds milk froth and 1third
espresso.
- Latte macchiato consists of 1third
each of hot milk, milk froth, and
espresso.
- Caffè latte consists of espresso and
hot milk.
- 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 variety of
capuccino that contains significantly
more espresso than milk froth for an
intensive coffee aroma.
- Café au lait is a French style of
coffee consisting of coffee and milk
froth. Café au lait is usually served in
a bowl.
Hot milk and milk froth can also be
made.
- Lungo is a coffee with significantly
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.

Preparing beverages
Milk preparation
Milk or milk alternatives (e.g., soy
milk) containing added sugar can
clog up the milk pipe and the rest of
the milk pipework. Residues from
unsuitable liquids can interfere with
milk preparation.
The milk used must not contain any
additives.
Only use pasteurized cow's milk.
Tip: Using cold cow's milk
(<50°F/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 your personal preference.
With whole milk (at least3.5% fat), the
milk froth will be slightly creamier than
with low-fat milk.
The milk flask
Milk is not cooled in the milk flask.
For high-quality milk froth, always
use cold milk (<50°F/10°C).

Select the parameter you want.
The current setting is displayed.
Change the setting as required.
Amount of coffee
The coffee machine can grind and brew
7.5–12.5g of coffee beans per cup. The
greater the amount, the stronger the
coffee.
The amount of coffee is too low if the
espresso or coffee lacks body.
Increase the amount of coffee so that
more ground coffee is brewed.
Brewing temperature
The brewing temperature must be
adapted to the roast of the beans you
are using. This is crucial whether you
are making espresso or coffee.
Several types are sensitive to high
brewing temperatures, resulting in an
impaired taste. If your coffee tastes
bitter, the brewing temperature you
have selected might be too high.
Espresso is usually brewed at higher
temperatures.
You can also adjust the brewing
temperature for making tea and
dispensing warm and hot water.
Pre-brewing ground coffee
When the pre-brewing function is
turned on, the ground coffee is first
moistened with a little hot water. The
ground coffee swells a little. Then the
remaining water is forced through the
moistened coffee at high pressure. If
your coffee tastes too bland and you
want too add some spice and richness,
try the “Pre-brewing” function.
Depending on the type of coffee used,
pre-brewing can intensify the taste.
You can set a short or long duration for
pre-brewing or turn the “Pre-brewing”
function off completely.
Tip: It is particularly recommended to
use the “Pre-brewing” function to make
coffee.
The amount of coffee is too high if the
espresso or coffee tastes bitter.
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.

Page 47
Portion size
You can adjust the amount of water for
all coffee drinks, hot water, and types of
tea.
The strength of the coffee is determined
by the ratio between the amount of
ground coffee and water. If the coffee is
brewed with more water but with the
same amount of ground coffee, the
coffee will taste milder and thinner. If
you reduce the amount of water, you
will get a stronger and more powerful
coffee.
If you significantly increase or decrease
the portion size of a drink and therefore
the amount of water for a coffee, you
should adjust the amount of ground
coffee accordingly.
For coffee drinks with milk you can also
set the amount of milk or milk froth to
suit your personal taste. You can also
set the portion sizes for hot milk and
milk froth.
The changed portion size is always
saved in the current profile. The name
of the current profile is shown in the
top left of the display.
The drink will now be made. Save will
appear in the display as soon as the
minimum dispensing amount is
reached.
When the cup is filled to the level you
want, tapSave.
If the maximum amount is reached,
preparation stops and the maximum
possible amount is saved.
If you want to change the portion size
for coffee drinks made with milk or hot
water, the ingredients which make up
the drink will be saved one after the
other while the drink is being made.
The programmed mix of ingredients and
the portion size will now be dispensed
every time that particular drink is
selected.
If the water container becomes empty
while making a drink, the coffee
machine will stop programming the

Performance Mode
You can select the appropriate
Performance Mode for how you use
your machine. Eco Mode is set by
default.
Eco Mode
Eco Mode is an energy-saving mode.
The system does not heat up until
someone starts making a drink.
Barista Mode
This Performance Mode has been
optimized for unadulterated coffee
enjoyment. Users can enjoy coffeebased drinks without any delay as the
coffee machine remains heated to the
brewing temperature. This mode
consumes more energy than Eco Mode.
Latte Mode
This Performance Mode has been
optimized for preparing milk. Milkbased drinks can be prepared within a
much shorter space of time. This mode
consumes more energy than Eco Mode
and Barista Mode.
Party Mode
This Performance Mode has been
configured for the occasional intensive
use of the coffee machine, e.g., for
family get-togethers.
Before switching off the coffee
machine, empty the drip tray and fill
the water container so that any
pending maintenance programs are
able to run.
Clean the coffee machine thoroughly
after intensive use, particularly the
milk pipework. It may be necessary
to descale the coffee machine
manually and degrease the brew
unit.
Please note the following information
about Party Mode:
- The general pipework is rinsed much
less frequently or not at all. The milk
pipework is not rinsed until
around1hour after milk was last
dispensed.
- Cleaning status messages or
cleaning prompts are suppressed
and delayed until the machine is next
switched on.
- The Off at and Off after timers are
deactivated. The coffee machine
switches off 6hours after the last
sensor button was pressed.
- The cup light remains permanently
switched on at the maximum
brightness level for as long as the
coffee machine stays switched on.

Page 85
Automatic cleaning and descaling
Risk of damage from spilled cleaning
and descaling solution.
Sensitive surfaces and/or natural
floors can suffer damage.
One way to catch the cleaning and
descaling solution is to place the
maintenance container under the
main dispenser before switching off
the machine.
Clear up any spillages of cleaning
and descaling solution.
When handling a descaling cartridge
which has already been filled with
water, ensure that the descaling
solution does not come into contact
with sensitive surfaces.
The coffee machine features automatic
maintenance programs for cleaning the
milk pipework and brew unit, and for
descaling the machine. For this, the
Miele Cleaning and Descaling
Cartridges must be inserted into the
coffee machine. If both types of
maintenance program are due to run on
the same day, automatic cleaning will
always be performed before automatic
descaling (total time:
approx.35minutes).
You can set the time for starting
cleaning and descaling via the
Maintenance Timer.
The coffee machine will automatically
determine the days when to carry out
automatic descaling based on the
usage pattern.
During automatic cleaning, the milk
pipework gets cleaned and/or the brew
unit gets degreased.
The coffee machine also determines the
cleaning-solution concentration and the
cleaning-program type for automatic
cleaning based on the number and
types of drinks made.
If you do not make any drinks, the
automatic maintenance programs will
not be started.
In order to run the automatic cleaning
programs, a solution is prepared by
mixing water with the cleaning agent.
This solution is then pumped through
the coffee-machine pipework. After the
defined holding time, all the solution is
rinsed out of the pipework and the
machine can then be used as normal
for making drinks.
During automatic cleaning and
descaling, you will hear various noises
(e.g., rinsing noises) at frequent
intervals even though the machine is
switched off.
What to ensure before and
during automatic maintenance
programs
The coffee machine must be ready to
use and the following conditions must
be met:
- Ready-to-use cleaning and descaling
cartridges are inserted.
- Automatic cleaning is switched on.
- The coffee machine must not be
disconnected from the power supply
during the automatic maintenance
programs.
- The drip tray, brew unit, and main
dispenser are inserted.
85
Page 86
Automatic cleaning and descaling
- If filling the water container manually:
the water container is inserted and is
filled with water at least up to the
mark.
- Carry out the instructions which
appear in the display before
switching off, e.g., Empty and refit the
drip tray and the waste container.
- The machine door is closed when the
program is started.
- The coffee machine is switched off.
Automatic cleaning
If you have made a drink containing
milk, the milk pipework will be cleaned
at least 4days afterward.
If you have made a coffee, the brew unit
will be degreased at least 15days
afterward.
Automatic cleaning takes
approx.25minutes.
Switching automatic cleaning
on and off
It is usual to switch on automatic
cleaning as part of the process of
setting up the coffee machine.
However, Automatic Cleaning can be
switched on or off at any time.
The drinks menu is displayed.
Tap the Backsensor button.
Select Settings and then Automatic
Cleaning.
Select the setting you want and
confirm withOK.
86
If coffee drinks and/or milk have
already been dispensed when
automatic cleaning is switched on,
you will need to clean the coffee
machine manually as a one-off
operation. This will remove any milk
residues and coffee oils, and will reset
the counter.
The Miele Cleaning Cartridge
Only use the Miele Cleaning
Cartridge for automatic cleaning. It
has been developed specifically for
use in this coffee machine.
Please note that the Miele Cleaning
Cartridge has a life span of
approx.1year after it has been
placed in the coffee machine.
Critical for the one-year life span is
the date on which the cleaning
cartridge was inserted.
Do not fill the cleaning cartridge with
other fluids or substances.
The Miele Cleaning Cartridge contains a
cleaning agent for the effective removal
of milk residues and coffee oils.
The Miele Cleaning Cartridge will last
for up to 3months of automatic
cleaning, depending on how often the
coffee machine is used. Frequent
manual cleaning or a large number of
drinks will shorten this period
accordingly.
You can display the cartridge fill level as
a segment bar under Settings | Info| Fill
levels. As the cartridge fill level
decreases, various messages will
appear at regular intervals to remind
you to have a new cartridge at the
ready.
Page 87
Automatic cleaning and descaling
The first message will appear when the
cartridge is approx.25% full.
Cleaning cartridges are available to
order from the Miele online shop, from
Miele Technical Service, or from your
Miele dealer.
If no cleaning cartridge has been
inserted or if the inserted cartridge is
empty or has expired, the milk
pipework and brew unit must be
cleaned manually. For this, you will
need the appropriate cleaning agents
(see “Cleaning and care” – “Cleaning
the milk pipework” and “Degreasing
the brew unit”).
You can leave the cleaning cartridge in
place during long periods of non-use or
when transporting the coffee machine.
Replacing the cleaning
cartridge

the maintenance container.
Pull the holder with the cartridge
forward and remove both.
Unscrew the cleaning cartridge from
the holder. Dispose of the used
cartridge with your household waste.
Cleaning agent residues can
sometimes dry on the holder, leaving
white deposits behind. These residues
will not affect the automatic cleaning
program. If necessary, you can wipe
the deposits off with a damp cloth or
put the holder in the dishwasher.
Take the new cartridge out of its
packaging and unscrew the screw
cap. The cap is no longer required.

example, you will need to descale the
coffee machine more frequently with
the descaling tablets.
The Miele Descaling Cartridge
Only use the Miele Descaling
Cartridge for the automatic descaling
program.
Please note that the Miele Descaling
Cartridge has a life span of
approx.1year after it has been
placed in the machine and filled with
water for the first time. The date on
which the descaling cartridge was
installed and filled with water
determines the one-year life span.
Do not install a descaling cartridge
which has already been used in
another Miele Coffee Machine. Your
coffee machine will have no
information about the fill level of this
cartridge. The descaling effect may
be insufficient and damage your
coffee machine.
Do not fill the descaling cartridge
with other fluids or substances.
88
Page 89
Automatic cleaning and descaling
The descaling agent comes in the form
of tablets in the descaling cartridge.
The cartridge is filled with water when it
is placed in the machine. The tablets
gradually dissolve over time.
The Miele Descaling Cartridge will last
for up to12months of automatic
descaling, depending on how often the
coffee machine is used.
You can display the cartridge fill level as
a segment bar under Settings | Info| Fill
levels. As the cartridge fill level
decreases, various messages will
appear at regular intervals to remind
you to have a new cartridge at the

shop, from Miele Technical Service, or
from your Miele dealer.
If a descaling cartridge is not
installed, an empty cartridge is
installed, or an expired cartridge is
installed, the machine needs to be
descaled using the Descale Appliance
maintenance program. To do this, the
appropriate descaling agent is
required (see “Descaling the
machine” in “Cleaning and care”).
- It should be transported with care
and upright. Avoid shaking it.
Shaking or turning upside down
reduces the shelf life or damages the
cartridge.
