Stainless steel milk container

The stainless steel milk container is

vacuum insulated, to keep milk cold for

a period of time. With an ambient

temperature of about 68°F (20°C), milk

at 43°F (6°C) can be stored for 11-12

hours and remain under 55°F (13°C).

(Milk that is warmer than 55°F (13°C)

should not be used because it will not

make good milk froth.)

The appliance brews the espresso or

coffee, and the selected beverage is

dispensed from the main spout.

Do not open the appliance door

during the brewing process. The

appliance will be damaged.

After dispensing, the appliance

automatically reverts to bean

operation.

Milk cannot be stored as long if there is

a warming drawer underneath the

coffee machine.

Interrupt preparation

Do not fill the container to the rim,

leave a gap of approx. 1" - 1 ½"

(2 - 3 cm) from the top.

^ During preparation, tap the OK

button when "Stop" appears in the

display.

Preparation will immediately stop.

Make sure to keep the top and seals

of the container clean. Soiling can

cause affect the functioning of the

milk container.

If you use ground coffee, only one

serving is prepared at a time. The

appliance always uses the entire

portion of ground coffee loaded into

the funnel, for one beverage.

Cold milk is best for creating froth.

Always pre-warm the cup with hot

water, before you prepare a beverage.

Preparing drinks

^ Place a suitable cup or glass under

both dispensers.

For best results when preparing a

latte macchiato, place the glass

milk container and turn the lid to the

left, so that it clicks into place.

^ Tap the right arrow button until the

beverage symbol is highlighted, tap

OK once.

^ To interrupt preparation, tap OK

again.

To set the proportions for beverages

(coffee, espresso, froth, hot milk),

see "Setting serving sizes").

^ Open the appliance door and hang

the milk container in the appliance

(as shown).

After preparing the first drink with

and the quality of the crema.

To adjust the grinder setting

To prevent machine damage adjust

the coffee grinder one level at a

time and let the beans grind before

adjusting another notch. Otherwise

the machine will be damaged.

^ Push the slide control to the left for a

finer grind or to the right for a coarser

grind.

You should be able to feel the notches

when moving the slide control.

The grinder should be adjusted:

– If the espresso flows too quickly into

the cup, the pressure cannot be built

up because the beans have been

ground too coarsely. The grinder

should be adjusted to a finer setting.

If the slide control will not move:

^ Close the machine and dispense a

cup of coffee.

Then try to move the slide control

again.

– If the espresso only trickles into the

cup, the beans have been ground

too fine and the coffee will be bitter.

The grinder should be adjusted to a

coarser setting.

– If the crema is evenly colored but

pale, the ground coffee is too

coarse.

– If the crema is very dark brown on

one side, graduating almost to white

on the other, the ground coffee is too

fine.

frequently the unit must be descaled to

maintain the coffee system properly.

^ Select "Start", confirm with OK.

As a reminder the display shows

"Please run cleaning program" after

200 cups and then until the machine

is cleaned.

^ Follow the instructions in the display.

The cleaning process takes about 6

minutes.

To avoid having to empty the drip

tray too frequently, place the small

cleaning container beneath the main

dispenser.

The inside of the machine is also

rinsed, therefore you will still have to

empty the drip tray during the

cleaning process.

Cleaning and care

When the display prompts you to

Please drop the cleaning tablet in the

ground coffee funnel.

Only use a slightly damp sponge

when cleaning the controls. Water

could penetrate into the electronics

and cause damage.

The external surfaces of the coffee

machine are susceptible to scratching.

Scratches on the glass surface could

also weaken the glass making it more

susceptible to breakages.

Glass cleaners may be used to

clean the exterior. However do not

allow them to sit or "puddle", this can

cause damage to the surface.

Remove the cleaner promptly.

^ Remove the storage drawer and

open the funnel lid.

^ Drop a cleaning tablet into the funnel.

^ Close the lid, replace the cover, and

completion.)

Maintenance

^ Tap < or > until "Maintenance m" is

highlighted, confirm with OK.

^ Select "Descale" confirm with OK or,

if the appliance is switched off: tap

OK while switched off.

^ Add 2 descaling tablets to the water

and allow them to dissolve

completely before closing the water

tank and placing it back into the

machine.

^ Select "Start", tap OK to begin the

descaling process.

During the descaling cycle, the

descaling agent-water solution will run

out of the hot water spout and the main

dispenser. This will be followed by a

pause to allow the solution to dissolve

more descaling solution with be

released from the spouts. This process

will repeat itself until the cycle is

finished.

The display prompts the user through

the single steps of the descaling

process. Follow the prompts.

Danger of suffocation!

Electrical connection

WARNING:

Make sure that the power to the

machine is OFF before installing or

performing maintenance or repairs.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE

GROUNDED

Important

All electrical work should be

performed by a qualified electrician

in strict accordance with national

and local safety regulations.

Installation, repairs and other work

by unqualified persons could be

dangerous.

The coffee system comes equipped

with a 6 ft (1.8 m) power cord with a

NEMA 5-15P molded plug for

connection to a 120 V, 15 A, 60 Hz

power supply.

Verify that the voltage, load and circuit

rating information found on the data

plate match the household electrical

supply before installing the coffee

system.

Do not connect the appliance to a

power inverter or directly to power

produced outside of the normal

electrical grid (i.e. direct solar or wind

power source).

Direct connection to such power

sources can cause power surges and

tripped breakers when the appliance is

turned on, and could damage the

appliance.

Do not connect the appliance to energy

saving plugs or outlets. The reduction

of power to the appliance caused by

these devices will cause the appliance

to run hot and may damage it and/or

shorten its usable life.

If there is any question concerning the

electrical connection of this appliance

to your power supply, please consult a

licensed electrician or contact Miele’s

Technical Service Department. See

back page for contact information.
