Introduction
With this SENSEO® coffee machine, you can enjoy a perfect cup
of coffee topped with a rich frothy coffee layer whenever you feel
like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you’re always sure of a pure
and round taste. This SENSEO® coffee machine combines a
unique brewing method 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
flavor and aroma from the coffee.
This new SENSEO machine offers you more choice as it has extra
strength select settings. Next to the long, smooth SENSEO coffee,
you can also choose to brew a short strong SENSEO coffee by
simply pressing the button twice. The convenient SENSEO pods
and the unique SENSEO® brewing system are perfectly matched
to ensure that the best taste and aroma are extracted from the
coffee. To optimize 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 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.
Intensity select
For one small cup of strong short coffee,
double tap the 1-cup button.
For two cups of strong short coffee, double
tap the 2-cup button.
First use
Unpacking
1 Remove 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:
1 Remove the water reservoir (Fig. 2).
2 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX
indication and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
3 Move the lever upwards to release the lid (Fig. 4).
4 Open the lid (Fig. 5).
5 Put the 1-cup pod holder or the 2-cup pod holder in the
machine without pod(s) (Fig. 6).
6 Close 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.
7 Put the plug in a polarized electrical outlet.
8 Put a bowl with a capacity of at least at least 1.6 qt (1.5 liters)
under the coffee outflow unit to collect the water (Fig. 8).
9 Press 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 outflow unit 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 SENSEO® coffee machine is ready for use.
Brewing SENSEO® coffee
Filling the water reservoir
1 Fill 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.
Turning on the machine
1 Press 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
1 Move the lever upwards to release and open the lid (Fig. 4).
2 Place the SENSEO® coffee pod(s) properly in the center 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.
Note: Make sure the pod holder is clean and the sieve in the
center is not clogged, e.g. with loose coffee grounds.
Note: Make sure the coffee in the pod(s) is evenly distributed
and press the pod(s) lightly into the pod holder.
3 Close the lid and lock the lever (Fig. 7).
-
Always make sure the lid is properly locked. Push down the
lever until it snaps home with a click.
Warning: Never start brewing with the lid open. The lid
must be properly closed.
Brewing coffee
1 Place one cup or two cups under the coffee outflow unit. The
cups you use should have a capacity of at least 5.0fl.oz.
(150ml). Do not use cups that are too large, as they cause the
coffee to get cold more quickly.
2 Press the button that indicates the number of cups of
SENSEO® coffee you want to brew.
-
Press the 1-cup button once for one large mild cup of coffee
(Fig. 13).
Tip: Press the same button twice for one strong small cup of
coffee. The indicator light shines less bright to indicate you
have pressed the same button twice.
-
Press the 2-cup button once for two large mild cups of
coffee (Fig. 14).
Tip: Press the same button twice for two strong small cups of
coffee. The indicator light shines less bright to indicate you
have pressed the same button twice.
-
The SENSEO® coffee machine starts brewing. The machine
automatically supplies the optimal amount of water.
Warning: Do not remove the water reservoir during a
brewing cycle, as this will cause the machine to draw in air.
3 After use, lift the pod holder out of the machine and remove
the coffee pod(s). Be careful when you do this, for there may
still be some water/coffee on the coffee pod(s).
4 After use, press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
Note: If you do not use the machine, it switches off
automatically after 30 minutes to save energy.
Note: Never put normal ground coffee or use torn pods in the
SENSEO® machine, as this causes it to become blocked.
Cleaning the machine
Never immerse the machine in water or any other liquid.
Never clean the machine by flushing it with the lid open.
Cleaning the coffee machine
1 Always unplug the machine before you clean it.
2 Clean the outside of the machine with a moist cloth.
3 Remove the coffee outflow unit (Fig. 15).
-
You can disassemble the coffee outflow unit for more
thorough cleaning (Fig. 16).
4 Clean the coffee outflow unit, the pod holders, the drip tray,
the cup tray and the water reservoir in hot water, if necessary
with some dishwashing liquid, or in the dishwasher (Fig. 17).
5 To prevent clogging, clean the pod holders regularly with hot
water, some dishwashing liquid and a dishwashing brush. If
you have used the 2-cup pod holder to brew cappuccino or
hot chocolate, make sure to clean it thoroughly immediately
after use to remove any milk residues (Fig. 18).
Note: Use the pod holder in the machine during descaling to
clean it even more effectively.
6 Clean the water distribution disk with a moist cloth. Be careful
when you do this. Make sure that the rubber sealing ring does
not get stuck under the edge of the water distribution disk. If it
does, the coffee machine starts to leak (Fig. 19).
Flushing the coffee machine
If you have not used the coffee machine for three days, flush it
with clean cold water before you use it again. Flush the machine
in the following way:
1 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX
indication and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
2 Put the 1-cup pod holder or the 2-cup pod holder in the
machine without pod(s) (Fig. 6).
3 Put a bowl with a capacity at least 1.6 qt (1.5 liters) under the
coffee outflow unit to collect the water (Fig. 8).
4 Press the on/off button. Wait until the machine has heated up.
Then press the 2-cup button several times until the water
reservoir is empty (Fig. 20).
Descaling
When to descale
Descale the SENSEO® coffee machine frequently. Preferably
descale 4 to 6 times a year, but at least once every 3 months.
There is no difference between soft-water and hard-water areas
in this respect. Descaling takes about 30 minutes. Do not
interrupt the descaling process.
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to
descale the SENSEO® coffee machine at least every 3 months.
Your reasons to descale:
-
It prolongs the life of your SENSEO® coffee machine
-
It ensures maximum cup volume
-
It ensures maximum coffee temperature
-
The machine produces less sound during brewing
-
It prevents malfunctioning
If the descaling procedure is not performed correctly, scale
residue remains behind in the machine. This causes scale to build
up more quickly and may cause permanent and irreparable
damage to the machine.
Use the correct descaler
Only citric acid-based descalers are suitable for descaling the
SENSEO® machine. This type of descaler descales the machine
without damaging it. For the correct amount, see under
‘Descaling procedure’ below. Each descaling mixture can be used
only once. Use a new descaling mixture each time.
Descaling procedure
The descaling procedure consists of 2 descaling cycles, each with
1 liter of descaling mixture, and 2 flushing cycles. Do not interrupt
the descaling cycles and do not switch off the machine before or
between the flushing cycles.
1 Press the on/off button to turn on the machine (Fig. 10).
2 Place the 1-cup pod holder with a used coffee pod in it in the
coffee machine. Close the lid and make sure it is properly
locked.
3 Mix the descaler powder with 1 quart (1 liter) of water in a
measuring jug. Stir until the powder is completely dissolved
(Fig. 21).
Note: You have to use 2 quarts (2 liters) of descaling mixture:
one liter for each descaling cycle.
4 Fill the water reservoir up to the MAX indication with the
descaler mixture (Fig. 21).
5 Put the water reservoir back into the coffee machine. The
machine is ready for use when the indicator light lights up
continuously.
6 Put a bowl with a capacity of at least 1.6 qt (1.5 liters) under the
coffee outflow unit to collect the descaling mixture (Fig. 8).
7 Press the 2-cup button once and let the machine operate.
Repeat this until the water reservoir is empty.
Note: Make sure that you use up the descaling mixture
completely during the descaling cycle.
Warning: Never interrupt the descaling cycle.
8 Exchange the 1-cup pod holder for the 2-cup pod holder.Place
a used pod in the 2-cup pod holder and close the lid.
9 Repeat steps 3 to 7.
Warning: Never descale the SENSEO® coffee machine with
the lid open. Make sure the lid is properly locked.
10 Remove the used pod and clean both pod holders after
descaling with hot water and a dishwashing brush to prevent
the sieve in the center from getting clogged.
11 Rinse the water reservoir with clean cold water. Fill the water
reservoir up to the MAX indication with clean cold water and
repeat steps 5 to 7.
Note: Do not refill the water reservoir with used hot water or
the used descaling mixture.
12 Rinse the water reservoir once again with clean cold water. Fill
the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX
indication and repeat steps 5 to 7 once more.
Note: Always rinse the machine by letting it empty two full
water reservoirs.
Frost-free storage
If the coffee machine has already been used and therefore has
been flushed with water, it may only be used and stored in a
frost-free place to prevent it from becoming damaged.
