Safety warnings

DANGER to children and people with a restricted capability of operating appliances

Children must not be allowed to play with the machine. Keep the machine and mains cord away from children under the age of 8.

This machine can be used by children aged 8 and over or by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or who lack experience and/or knowledge, provided they are supervised or have been trained in the safe use of the machine and understand the potential dangers.

Children must not be allowed to clean the machine unless they are over 8 years of age and supervised while doing so. This machine is maintenance-free.

In order to make the front drawer, used capsule container and drip tray easier to insert in the machine, all these parts are equipped with magnets. If one of these built-in magnets should come loose, keep it away from children. In the case that magnets are swallowed or inhaled, seek medical advice immediately. Magnets connecting inside the body can lead to serious injuries.

Set up the machine out of the reach of children.

Keep the packaging material out of the reach of children. There is a risk of suffocation!

DANGER due to electricity

Never immerse the coffee machine, mains plug or mains cord in water, as this could cause an electric shock. Never touch the mains plug with wet hands. Do not use the machine outdoors.

Never leave the machine to operate unattended.

Only connect the machine to a properly installed, grounded wall socket. The mains voltage must comply with the requirements stated in the machine’s technical specifications.

The mains cord must not be kinked or squeezed. Keep it away from sharp edges and sources of heat.

Do not use the machine if the machine, mains cord or mains plug is damaged or if the machine has been dropped.

Do not make any modifications to the machine, mains cord or other parts. Electrical appliances must only be repaired by qualified electricians, as improper repairs can cause considerable damage. Only have repairs carried out by a specialist workshop, or contact the customer care service.

Remove the mains plug from the wall socket...

... if a fault occurs,

... if the machine will not be used for any length of time,

... before cleaning the machine.

To unplug, always pull on the mains plug, not the cord.

To disconnect the machine fully from the mains, unplug the mains plug from the wall socket.

WARNING – risk of scalds/burns

Do not touch the coffee spout during or immediately after use. Avoid contact with coffee being dispensed from the spout.

Do not raise the lever while the machine is being used. Keep the capsule opening closed and do not pull out the used capsule container.

CAUTION – risk of injuries or material damage

Use only original Tchibo Cafissimo capsules. Neither use capsules from other manufacturers, nor damaged or misshapen capsules, and never fill capsules or the machine with ground coffee or instant coffee, as this would damage the machine. In these cases, any necessary repairs would not be covered by the warranty.

Only use the machine with the used capsule container and drip grid inserted.

Always pour fresh, cold tap or other drinking water into the water tank. Do not use carbonated mineral water or any other liquids.

Descale the machine as soon as the machine indicates that this is necessary.

The capsule opening contains two capsule punchers. These punchers pierce both sides of the capsule when the lever is pressed down. Never reach into the capsule opening. Keep your fingers and any objects away from the capsule opening as you fold down the lever.

Do not lift the machine up by the lever. To move the machine, hold it by the outer casing.

Place the machine on a solid, level surface that is well illuminated and resistant to water and heat.

To ensure that the casing does not melt, do not place the machine on a hob or immediately next to a hot oven, radiator or anything similar.

Route the mains cord in such a way that it cannot be tripped over. Do not let the mains cord hang down from the surface the machine is put on so that the machine cannot be pulled down by it.

Keep all cards with magnetic strips, such as credit cards, debit cards, etc. away from the front drawer, used capsule container and the drip tray, as well as all built-in magnets. The cards could become damaged. Also keep magnetic memory storage media and all devices that are affected by magnetism or may sustain functional impairment away from the machine.

The machine is equipped with non-slip feet. Work surfaces often have varnished or plastic finishes and are treated with a variety of care products. Some of these may contain substances that react adversely to the non-slip feet and soften them. If necessary, place a non-slip mat under the machine.

The machine must not be exposed to temperatures below 4°C. Residual water in the heating system could freeze and cause damage.
