Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome. With SENSEO®, you can enjoy a perfect cup of coffee with a delicious crema layer whenever you feel like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you’re always sure of a pure and round taste. SENSEO® combines a unique brewing method from Philips with convenient coffee pods from SENSEO, available in different blends of fine roast and ground coffee. Together they make sure you only get the very best in flavour and aroma from the coffee.

This new SENSEO appliance (HD6554, HD6555, HD6556) offers you more choice as it has extra coffee recipe settings. Next to the long, smooth SENSEO coffee you can choose as well to make a strong, smaller SENSEO coffee by simply pressing the button twice. The convenient SENSEO pods and Philips' unique SENSEO® brewing system are perfectly matched to ensure that the best taste and aroma are extracted from the coffee. To optimise the taste of the coffee, keep the following aspects in mind:

Clean cold water

Use clean cold water every day. If you have not used the coffee machine for three days, you have to flush it with clean cold water before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).

Fresh coffee pods

Use the SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full, round taste. SENSEO® coffee pods stay fresh longer when you store them in a storage container.

A clean machine

Clean and descale the Philips SENSEO® coffee machine regularly (see chapters ‘Cleaning’ and ‘Descaling’). Remove used coffee pods after brewing. If a used pod has been left in the coffee machine and you have not used the machine for some time, flush the machine before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’). For more information on why it is important to descale, how to descale or which descaler to use, visit our website at www.philips.com/descale-senseo.

First use

Unpacking

1Remove the machine from the box.

Note: Make sure you store the 2-cup pod holder in a safe place. It is an essential part of the machine.

Flushing the machine to fill the system

Warning: You cannot brew coffee if you have not flushed the SENSEO® coffee machine first!

The flushing cycle causes the system to fill with water. After this, the coffee machine is ready for use. Flush the machine in the following way:

1Remove the water reservoir (Fig. 2).

2Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).

3Move the lever upwards to release the lid (Fig. 4).

4Open the lid (Fig. 5).

5Put the 1-cup pod holder or the 2-cup pod holder in the machine without pod(s) (Fig. 6).

6Close the lid and lock the lever (Fig. 7).

Note: Make sure you lock the lever properly. Push it down until it snaps home with a click.

Note: Never flush the machine with the lid open. The lid must be properly locked.

7Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.

8Put a bowl (with a capacity of at least 1500ml) under the coffee spout to collect the water (Fig. 8).

9Press the on/off button and subsequently press the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button briefly at the same time (Fig. 9).

-The system fills itself with water from the water reservoir. This takes some time (approx. 90 to 150 seconds). The machine switches off automatically when the flushing cycle ends. During the flushing cycle, the machine produces more noise than during a regular brewing cycle.

Note: Before you use the machine for the first time, clean the coffee spout and the pod holders with hot water and some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher. Clean the water reservoir thoroughly in hot water, if necessary with some washing-up liquid (see chapter 'Cleaning the machine').

Now your Philips SENSEO® coffee machine is ready for use.

Brewing SENSEO® coffee

Tips for the best SENSEO® quality

-Use clean cold water every time.

-Use the SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full, round taste.

Filling the water reservoir

1Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).

Warning: Never pour any other liquid than clean cold water into the water reservoir.

-MIN: minimum amount of water required to brew 1 cup of SENSEO® coffee.

-A full reservoir allows you to make SENSEO® coffee a number of times. This makes it unnecessary to fill the water reservoir each time you want to make a cup of coffee.

Switching on the machine

1Press the on/off button (Fig. 10).

-The indicator light flashes while the water heats up. Heating up takes approx. 90 seconds.

The coffee machine is ready for use when the indicator light lights up continuously.

Placing a pod holder

1Move the lever upwards to release and open the lid (Fig. 4).

2Place the SENSEO® coffee pod(s) properly in the centre of the pod holder, with the convex side pointing downwards.

-Place 1 SENSEO® coffee pod in the 1-cup pod holder to brew one cup of coffee (Fig. 11).

-Place 2 SENSEO® coffee pods in the 2-cup pod holder to brew two cups of coffee (Fig. 12).

Note: Use SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full and round taste.
