experience with the machine should not use it without supervision or
instruction by a responsible person.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety with children
Danger of burning and scalding at the dispensers.
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 parts of their body under the dispensers.
Keep the coffee system out of reach of children.
Keep children away from the coffee machine and the power cord.
Children should be supervised when they are near the coffee
system. Do not allow them to play with it or to use the controls.
Remember that coffee and espresso are not suitable drinks for
children.
Danger of suffocation. While playing, children may become
entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull
the packaging material over their head, presenting the risk of
suffocation. Keep packaging material away from children.
Technical safety
Before installing the coffee system, check for externally visible
damage. If the coffee system is damaged, it may pose a safety
hazard and must not be used under any circumstances.
Before connecting the coffee system, check the voltage and
frequency indicated on the data plate against the voltage and
frequency of the household electrical supply.
This data must correspond in order to prevent damage to the coffee
system. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this
appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an
effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety
requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system
of the house checked by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of the coffee system can only be
guaranteed if it is connected to the electrical supply.
Do not connect the machine to the electrical supply using an
extension cord or power bar.
The coffee machine may not be used in mobile installations such
as ships.
Unplug the coffee machine from the power supply immediately if
you notice any damage or smell scorching, for example.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility
for examination, repair or adjustment.
Ensure that the power cord will not be pinched or damaged by
any sharp edges.
The power cord should not hang down. Someone could trip over
it with the risk of injury and the appliance could be damaged.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated
oven.
Only use the coffee system in rooms where the ambient
temperature is between +50°F (16°C) and +100°F (38°C).
10
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not place the coffee machine near a window in direct sunlight
or right next to an appliance that gives off heat. This would subject
the machine to ambient temperatures outside of its permitted range.
Position the coffee machine at a height of at least 34" (850 mm)
from the floor.
Danger of overheating. Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the coffee machine. Do not cover the coffee
machine with dish towels, etc. while it is in use.
The coffee machine must not be installed in a niche. Heat and
moisture can accumulate in a niche. This can result in damage to the
appliance and/or cabinetry.
Protect the coffee system from water and water spray. Do not
immerse the appliance in water.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons to the appliance
and the power cord could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for unauthorized work. Repairs may only be carried out
by a Miele-authorized service technician.
No user serviceable parts are contained in this appliance. Repairs
should be carried out by a qualified technician using genuine Miele
Parts. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition and can
result in voiding the warranty.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
genuine Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must
only be replaced by genuine Miele replacement parts.
For repairs, the coffee system must be disconnected from the
electrical power supply.
The coffee system is only disconnected from the power supply if
- The power cord has been unplugged.
Unplug the cord by pulling on the plug, not on the cord.
- The fuses to the household power supply are turned off.
11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Any screw-in fuses in the household supply are fully unscrewed.
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.
To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons do not
immerse cord, plugs, or coffee machine in water or other liquid.
Only use genuine Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance, and/or product liability claims will be
invalidated.
12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Proper 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 spouts. Ensure that the
main dispenser is clean and installed correctly.
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.
- 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.
- Do not use sparkling water.
Only fill the bean container with roasted espresso or coffee beans.
Do not fill the bean container with coffee beans that have been
treated with additives or with ground coffee.
Do not pour liquids into the bean container.
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.
13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Only fill the coffee chute with ground coffee beans.
Do not use any flavored ground coffee. The sugar in the coffee will
stick to and block the brew unit of the coffee system. The cleaning
tablets for degreasing the brew unit will not remove this type of
deposit.
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 use open flames, such as a candle, on or near the coffee
machine. The coffee machine could catch fire with the risk of the fire
spreading.
Do not use the coffee system to clean objects.
14
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning and care
Clean the coffee machine and the milk flask daily, particularly
before using for the first time.
All parts of the milk system need to be cleaned thoroughly and
regularly.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this machine. Steam could
reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
If you do not utilize the automatic descaling function, you will
need to descale the coffee machine manually on a regular basis.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from not descaling
the machine or using the wrong descaling agent or an unsuitable
descaling solution 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.
Rinsing coffee grounds down the drain can cause the sink to clog.
Instead, dispose of your coffee grounds appropriately as
biodegradable waste (where facilities exist) or by composting.
15
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For machines with stainless steel surfaces:
Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape,
or other types of adhesive on the stainless steel surfaces.
Stainless-steel surfaces are susceptible to scratching. Even
magnets can cause scratches.

Alternatively, you can make coffee
drinks with ready ground coffee (see
“Making coffee drinks with ground
coffee” in the “Making coffee” chapter).
residues of caffeine may be present
in the next drink that you make.
Risk of damage to the grinder
due to incorrect operation.
The coffee machine will be damaged
if the bean container is filled with
unsuitable substances such as
liquids, ground coffee, or coffee
beans treated with sugar, caramel, or
similar.
In addition, green (unroasted) coffee
beans or mixtures of coffee beans
which contain green coffee beans
can damage the grinder. Green
coffee beans are very hard and still
contain residual moisture. These can
damage the coffee machine grinder

hot milk.
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.
- 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.
Select a cup which can hold at least
100 ml for this drink.
Once the machine has heated up, the
milk will be drawn up into the main
dispenser where it is heated by steam
and also frothed for drinks requiring
milk froth.
- Flat white is a large cappuccino: lots
of espresso with plenty of milk froth.
- Café au lait is an espresso with
some hot milk.
If you have not made any milk drinks
for a while, rinse the milk pipe
thoroughly before making the first
drink.
Hot milk and milk froth can also be
made.

Automatic descaling
Risk of damage from splashes from
the descaling solution.
Sensitive surfaces and/or natural
floors can suffer damage.
Wipe up any spillages of descaling
solution.
When handling a cartridge which has
already been filled with water, ensure
that the descaling solution does not
come into contact with sensitive
surfaces.
To ensure the longevity of
components and an environment that
is consistently free of limescale, the
coffee machine needs to be manually
descaled from time to time. The
intervals are determined by your
usage behavior and the water
hardness level of your area. If you
make a lot of coffees with milk, for
example, you will need to descale the
coffee machine more frequently with
the descaling tablets.
The coffee machine has an automatic
maintenance program for descaling the
machine. For automatic descaling, a
Miele Descaling Cartridge needs to be
installed at the back of the coffee
machine. The coffee machine will
automatically determine the days when
to carry out automatic descaling based
on the usage pattern. Automatic
What you need to note before
and during automatic
descaling:
The coffee machine must be ready to
use and the following conditions must
be met:
- A descaling cartridge which is ready
to use is installed.
descaling takes approx. 4 hours,
including the activation phase.
- The coffee machine is connected to
the power supply. The coffee
machine must not be disconnected
from the power supply during
automatic descaling.
You can set the time for daily descaling
to start using the Descaling timer.
Water is mixed with the descaling agent
to create a solution for automatic
descaling. This descaling solution is
then pumped through the pipework of
the coffee machine. After the activation
phase the solution is then rinsed out of
the pipework and the machine can then
be used as normal for making drinks.
- The drip tray, brew unit, and main
dispenser are inserted.
- The water container is inserted and is
filled with water at least up to the
descaling symbol.
- Carry out the instructions which
appear in the display before
switching off, e.g., Empty the drip tray.
During automatic descaling you will
hear pumping and rinsing noises at
frequent intervals even though the
appliance is switched off and the
display is dark.
- The milk pipe is inserted into the
aperture in the drip tray.
If you do not make any drinks,
automatic descaling will not be started.
- The coffee machine is switched off.
86
Automatic descaling
The Miele Descaling Cartridge is
available to order from the Miele online
shop, from Miele Technical Service, or
from your Miele dealer.
The Miele Descaling Cartridge
Only use the Miele Descaling
Cartridge for the automatic descaling
program.
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 the appliance maintenance
program. To do this, the appropriate
descaling agent is required (see
“Descaling the appliance” in the
“Cleaning and care” chapter).
Please note that the Miele Descaling
Cartridge has a lifespan of approx.
one year 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 shelf-life.
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.
The descaling cartridge can remain
installed even if the machine is not used
for a long time. Remove the cartridge
before transporting the coffee machine.
Please note:
- Once filled with water, the descaling
cartridge has a maximum shelf life of
three weeks outside of the machine.
- It should be transported with care
and upright. Avoid shaking it.
Shaking or turning upside down
reduces the shelf life or damages the
cartridge.
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 cartridge should be stored
upright, in a dark place, and at room
temperature 60 – 100 F (16 – 38°C).
The Miele Descaling Cartridge will last
for 7 to 12 months of automatic
descaling, depending on how often the
coffee machine is used.
A prompt will appear in the display
shortly before the cartridge is depleted,
reminding you that it needs to be
replaced. Confirm the message
with OK. After this first message, six
more descaling programs are possible.

This type of coffee bean is often oily. These oils can
cling to the walls of the coffee bean containers and
hinder the flow of beans.
Make a coffee and observe whether the coffee
beans drop into the coffee bean container.
Clean the coffee bean containers more often if you
are using darker, more oily coffee beans.
Try other types of coffee bean which are less oily.
Insufficient coffee beans are getting into the grinder
and less coffee is being brewed. Are you using a
coffee blend with very large beans or different sized
beans? The beans are possibly getting wedged or
jammed and forming “bean bridges”.
Risk of injury on the moving grinder.
If you place a spoon or similar, or even fingers, in
the bean containers during grinding, you could be
injured.
Do not reach into the bean system during grinding.
Do not place any objects in the bean containers
during grinding.
Place a narrow spoon or similar in the bean
containers and stir the coffee beans.
The ground coffee chute is blocked.
Vacuum out the ground coffee chute using the
attachment supplied.

cartridge has a max. shelf life of three
weeks outside of the machine. The
cartridge should be stored upright, in
a dark place, and at room temperature
60 – 100 F (16 – 38 °C).
The coffee machine pipework should be
evaporated before it is stored for a long
period of time or transported any
distance – particularly at temperatures
below freezing.
Evaporating the machine involves
removing all traces of water from the
system to prevent the risk of water and
frost damage.

coffee chute using the
attachment and cleaning the
interior
To ensure coffee residues are removed
thoroughly, you should vacuum out the
ground coffee chute before transporting

Saving energy
The following tips can help you save
energy and money as well as help the
environment:
- Operate the coffee machine in “Eco
mode” (pre-set).
- Select a lower lighting setting or
refrain from using lighting when the
appliance is switched on.
- Switch off the lighting switch-off time
when the appliance is switched off.
- Switch off the time display.
- Energy consumption may increase if
you change the factory default
settings for the timer.
This setting uses more energy appears in
the display.
- Switch the coffee machine off with
the On/Off button when it is not in
use.
- Change the setting for the “Switch off
after” timer to 20 minutes. Then the
coffee machine will switch off
20 minutes after the last drink has
been made or a sensor button has
been tapped.
- If you only want to pre-heat your
cups occasionally, you can switch the
cup heating surface off. You can use
hot water to pre-heat the cups
instead.
106
Electrical connection
Before connecting the coffee machine,
make sure that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage and frequency)
matches the domestic electrical supply.
This data must match to prevent the
coffee machine from being damaged. If
in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
The connection data is provided on the
data plate. The data plate can be found
on the left-hand side of the appliance
when the drip tray is pulled out.
The socket should be next to the
appliance and easily accessible where
possible.
Do not connect the coffee machine to
the power supply using a multi-socket
adapter or an extension lead. These do
not guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (risk of fire).
Do not connect the coffee machine to a
stand-alone inverter. These devices
are used for autonomous power supply,
such as a solar power system. Power
surges could cause a safety shutdown.
This can damage the electronics.
The coffee machine must not be used
with energy saving plugs. These
reduce the energy supply to the
appliance, which could generate
excessive heat.
If the power cord is faulty, it must only
be replaced by a qualified electrician.
