Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should 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.

Disposal of your old machine

Electrical and electronic machines often contain valuable materials. They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your machine. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection/recycling centre, or contact your Dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

,

There is a danger of burning and scalding from the coffee and hot water dispensing spouts.

Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of adults.

Ensure children do not touch hot surfaces of the coffee machine or place any part of their body under the dispensing spouts.

~

Install the coffee machine where it is out of the reach of children.

~

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the machine unless they are constantly supervised.

~

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the coffee machine and do not allow them to play with it.

Remember that coffee and espresso are not suitable drinks for children.

~

Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

11

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

~

Installation and repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised service technician. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons can cause considerable danger to users.

~

A damaged coffee machine could be dangerous. Before building in the machine, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not use a damaged machine.

~

To avoid the risk of damage to the machine, make sure the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate corresponds to the household supply, before connecting the machine to the mains supply. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

~

The electrical safety of this coffee machine can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

~

Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

~

For safety reasons, this machine may only be used when it has been built in.

~

If the coffee machine is to be built in above another appliance, there must be a full-width, closed shelf between them (except when it is combined with a Miele built-in plate warming drawer).

~

The coffee machine must not be used in a non-stationary location

(e.g. on a ship).

12

Warning and Safety instructions

~

Only use the coffee machine in rooms where the ambient temperature is between +10 °C and +38 °C.

~

Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation around the coffee machine. The ventilation gaps in the furniture housing unit and the gap between the top of the housing unit and the ceiling must be at least 200 cm 2 . Otherwise condensation can build up and damage the machine or the housing unit.

~

If the coffee machine is installed behind a kitchen furniture door, it may only be used with the furniture door open. Do not close the furniture door while the coffee machine is in use.

~

While the machine is under guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

~

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele

Original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the machine when Miele replacement parts are used.

~

The machine must be disconnected from the electricity supply during repair work.

~

Never open the outer casing of the machine. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults or electric shock.

~

Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this machine.

Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

,

The central spout and hot water spout present a danger of burning or scalding.

The liquids and steam dispensed are very hot.

Water in the drip tray can also be very hot. Take great care when emptying it.

Do not place any part of your body under the spouts when hot liquid or steam are being dispensed.

Do not touch hot components.

The nozzles can spray hot liquid or steam. Make sure that the central spout is clean and fitted correctly.

,

Never look directly at the lighting or use optical instruments to look at it.

~

Please note the following regarding water:

– Only use cold, fresh tap water to fill the water container. Hot water and other liquids could damage the machine.

– Change the water every day to prevent a build-up of bacteria.

– Do not use mineral water. Mineral water will cause serious limescale deposits to build up in your machine and damage it.

– Do not use water from a reverse osmosis unit in this machine. This would damage it.

~

Only fill the bean container with roasted espresso/coffee beans.

Do not fill the bean container with coffee beans which have been treated with additives or with ground coffee.

14

Warning and 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 a certain amount of residual moisture.

These can damage the coffee machine grinder as soon as grinding begins.

~

Sugar will damage the machine. Only use pure coffee beans. Do not use coffee beans which have been treated with anything containing caramel, any kind of sugar or other substances. Do not put liquids containing sugar in the coffee machine.

~

Only add ground coffee or the Miele cleaning tablets for degreasing the brew unit to the ground coffee chute.

~

Do not use any caramelised ready ground coffee. The sugar in the coffee will stick to and block the brew unit of the coffee machine.

The cleaning tablets for degreasing the brew unit will not remove this type of deposit.

~

Do not use milk with additives. Most additives contain sugar which will stick to the milk pipework and damage the machine.

~

If using dairy milk make sure that it has been pasteurised.

~

Do not place any alcohol mixtures which are alight underneath the central spout. 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 machine.

~

The machine must not be used for cleaning objects.

~

The central spout connector cap is lubricated with silicone grease. Take care not to get this on your clothes when removing or replacing the containers or other components.

15

Warning and Safety instructions

Cleaning and care

~

The coffee machine must be disconnected from the electricity supply before cleaning or maintenance.

~

Clean the coffee machine and the milk flask thoroughly before using for the first time (see "Cleaning and care").

~

Clean the coffee machine and the milk flask every day (see

"Cleaning and care").

~

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this machine. Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

~

Descale the coffee machine regularly depending on the water hardness level in your area. Descale the machine more frequently in areas with very hard water. Miele cannot be held liable for damage arising from insufficient descaling, the use of incorrect descaling agent or the use of descaling agent which is not of the appropriate concentration.

~

Degrease the brew unit regularly with Miele cleaning tablets.

Depending on the natural oil content of the coffee used, the brew unit can become blocked quite quickly.

For machines with stainless steel surfaces:

~

Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape or other types of adhesive on stainless steel surfaces. These damage the surface, causing it to lose its dirt repellent protective coating.

~

The finish on stainless steel surfaces is susceptible to scratching.

Even magnets can cause scratching.

Tip: Please continue to work though the further steps outlined in the operating instructions so that you can familiarise yourself with the coffee machine and set it up for your specific requirements.

Water hardness

The water hardness level indicates how much calcium is dissolved in the water.

The higher the calcium content, the harder the water, and the harder the water, the more often the coffee machine will need to be descaled.

The coffee machine measures the quantity of water and steam used. The number of drinks which can be dispensed before the machine needs to be descaled will depend on the water hardness level set.

Set the water hardness level on the coffee machine to the water hardness level for the local area to ensure that the machine functions correctly and is not damaged. This will ensure that the reminder to descale the machine will appear in the display at the correct time.

The machine has four programmable levels:

Water hardness Local water hardness level

21

Filling the coffee bean container

If you want to use freshly ground coffee beans for each cup of espresso or coffee, fill the coffee bean container with roasted coffee beans.

Alternatively, you can make coffee or espresso with ready ground coffee (see

"Making espresso and coffee using ready ground coffee").

Tip: You can use a nut or seed grinder to grind green coffee beans. These types of grinder generally have a rotating stainless steel blade.

You can then add the ground green coffee one portion at a time to the ground coffee chute and make the desired coffee drink (see "Making espresso and coffee using ready ground coffee").

Warning.

Only put roasted espresso/coffee beans in the container.

Anything else, including ground coffee, will damage the grinder.

Warning. Sugar will damage the coffee machine.

Do not use coffee beans that have been treated with sugar, caramel or other substances and do not put liquids containing sugar into the coffee bean container.

Do not use green (unroasted) coffee beans or mixtures of coffee beans containing green coffee beans.

Green coffee beans are very hard and still contain a certain amount of residual moisture. These can damage the coffee machine grinder as soon as grinding begins.

Coffee the way you like it

To set the coffee machine for the type of coffee you are using, you can change the amount of coffee, set the brewing temperature or switch on the

"Pre-brewing option in the "Parameters"

, menu. This can be done for each type of drink.

You can also adjust the grinder setting to suit the type of coffee you are using.

Grinder setting

When the beans are ground correctly, the coffee or espresso will flow evenly into the cup with a good crema.

The crema should have an even nutbrown colour.

There are various ways to tell whether the coffee grinder is set correctly.

The coffee is too coarsely ground , if

– espresso or coffee flows into the cup very quickly.

– the crema is very pale and uneven.

Set a finer grinder setting.

The coffee is too finely ground , if

– espresso or coffee only trickles into the cup.

– the crema is dark brown.

Set a coarser grinder setting.

To avoid damaging the grinder:

Only ever adjust the grinder by one setting at a time.

Grind the coffee beans again if you want to adjust the grinder to the next setting.

^ Open the front of the coffee machine.

^ Push the slide control one setting to the left (for finer grinding) or one setting to the right (for coarser grinding).

^ Close the front.

^ Make a coffee.

Then move the slide control again.

The altered grinder setting will not be used until after the second coffee has been dispensed.

Touch the OK sensor.

The setting is now saved.

Amount of coffee

The coffee machine can grind and brew 6-14 g of coffee per cup. The greater the quantity, the stronger the coffee or espresso.

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 very 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

– espresso or coffee only trickles into the cup.

– 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,

– whether an espresso or a coffee is being made, and

– the altitude of the region.

If the coffee machine is located at more than 2000 metres above sea level, the brewing temperature needs to be set lower due to the change in pressure.

This is because the boiling point for water at a high altitude is lower than the boiling point for water at sea level.

There are five brewing temperatures.

Tip: Not all types of coffee can withstand a high temperature. Certain types are too delicate - the crema on top would not be as good and the taste would be impaired.

32

Setting the portion size

The flavour of the coffee produced depends on the type of coffee, how finely the beans are ground and the quantity of water used.

You can programme the amount of water used for espresso, coffee or hot water to suit the size of your cups and the type of coffee you are using.

For coffee made with milk, in addition to programming the portion size of coffee you can programme the amount of milk and milk froth used. You can also programme the portion size for hot milk and froth.

There is a maximum amount which can be programmed for each type of drink.

Preparation stops when this is reached.

The maximum amount possible for that type of drink will then be saved.

Electrical connection U.K., ZA, IRL

All electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person only, in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK).

Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Ensure power is not supplied to the machine until after installation work has been carried out.

The voltage and frequency are given on the data plate. Please ensure these match the household mains supply. The fuse rating is quoted on the plug.

The machine is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug for connection to a 230 - 240 V mains supply.

Connection should be made via a fused plug and suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation.

Do not connect via an extension lead.

For extra safety it is advisable to protect the appliance with a suitable residual current device (RCD). Contact a qualified electrician for advice.

If the socket is not accessible after installation (depending on country) an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles.

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363

The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted).

Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier.

Do not connect the machine to an inverter such as those used with an autonomous energy source e.g.

Solar power .

When switched on peak loads in the system can cause the safety switch off mechanism to be triggered. This can damage the electronic unit.

The machine must not be used with socalled Energy saving devices either.

These reduce the amount of energy supplied to the machine causing it to overheat.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE

MUST BE EARTHED

75

Installation

Building-in and combination options

The machine is designed for installation in a tall unit.

It can also be combined with other Miele built-in appliances. If the coffee machine is to be built in above another appliance, there must be a full-width, closed shelf between them (except when it is combined with a suitable Miele built-in plate or food warming drawer).

76

Installation

Ventilation

Ensure that the back of the coffee machine is sufficiently ventilated so that steam and warm air can dissipate freely.

To align the machine front with the furniture front ensure that there is a sealing strip provided all the way around the building-in niche or around the coffee machine.

The ventilation gaps in the furniture housing unit and the gap between the top of the housing unit and the ceiling must be at least 200 cm².

Otherwise condensation can build up and damage the machine or the housing unit.

Installation

Before installation make sure that there is no power supply to the machine. This also applies should it ever need to be taken out of its housing unit.

The machine must be built in before it is operated. It is designed for use in ambient temperatures ranging from +10 °C to +38° C.

You will need two Allen keys (size 3 and 5) for installing the machine.

^ If the housing unit niche is not fitted with a sealing strip you should fit a

Miele sealing strip to the machine before installing it. This is fitted from the back of the machine.

This sealing strip is available to order from Miele.

77

Installation

Tip: It is useful to have somewhere at the height of the niche to place the machine on. This makes electrical connection easier.

^ Open the front of the machine and partially tighten the side socket screws.

^

Using the large allen key, unscrew all four feet underneath the machine out by approx. 2 mm.

^ Carefully turn lower socket screws to centre the machine in the niche.

^

Tighten both upper socket screws by hand to secure the machine in the unit. Do not overtighten them.

The feet can be unscrewed by up to approx. 10 mm.

^ Connect the machine to the electrical supply.

^

Push it all the way into the niche until you feel resistance.

Take care not to damage the electrical connection when pushing the coffee machine into the niche.

^ Check the height of the 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 with using the four feet underneath.

Four M5 hexagon socket screws are supplied for aligning and securing the machine in its niche.

78

Adjusting the hinges

If the machine front becomes difficult to open or close after installation you can adjust the hinges to realign it (TX 20):

Installation

^ Turn screw a to align the front of the machine so that it is flush with the front of the housing unit.

^ Turn screw b to align the front of the machine horizontally and vertically.
