2. Safety
2.1 Safe use of the appliance
The safety precautions and warnings printed here only refer to the product itself.
The operator´s obligations, especially with regard to food hygiene and health and
safety in the work place, may also apply, e.g. due to general legal regulations.
Such regulations are published by the relevant state authorities not by the machine
manufacturers. With regard to legal requirements concerning the machine´s con-
struction, MELITTA® SystemService hereby guarantees full compliance.
There is a danger of scalding in the product
outlet area (D) when hot liquids are dispensed.
This is the case when:
- drinks are dispensed,
- the automatic cleaning process is running,
- the storage urn is automatically emptied,
- air is automatically removed from the boiler
Make sure that nobody puts their hand into
the product outlet area while the machine is
switched on, except of course to place or take
away cups and jugs in this case, the necessary
protective distances have been built into the
machine´s design.
When placing the cleaning agent in the con-
tainer to be cleaned, inattentive operation can
result in mistakes. Swallowing, breathing or
having skin contact with cleaning agents can
damage your health.
Please ensure that cleaning agents are never
placed in the ground coffee container for ex-
ample, by instructing personnel accordingly.
Ensure that all information regarding the
cleaning agent used is easily available, also
in emergency situations. Should you use the
MELITTA® cleaning agent recommended in
the “Cleaning” section of this manual, these
instructions are always provided.
In the case of malfunctioning, there can be a
danger of trapping if someone puts their hand
into the ground coffee or instant powder con-
tainers while the machine is switched on.
Please ensure that nobody puts their hand into
the containers while the machine is switched
on.
There is no need to reach into any part of the
machine during operation.

Service staff, e.g.
● if the housing is damaged or the door does not close properly,
● if the mains cable or mains plug is damaged or the electricity supply is
regularly interrupted by the fuse,
● ifwater leaks out of the machine,
● iferror messages appear on the display or the machine does not operate
as usual,
● if unusual smells are noticed or the machine housing becomes hot.
(During normal operation the housing is only warm to the touch).
In all the above cases, remove the plug from the power socket and turn the water
off. Then contact our Technical Service staff.
Observe all cleaning, inspection and maintenance intervals, as stated in the
manual.
● the machine´s safety concept can only work if all parts are kept clean and
parts subject to wear and tear are replaced early enough. Otherwise, the
safety, correct functioning and durability of the machine may be impaired.
All repair and maintenance work on the machine may only be carried out by our
Technical Service staff or a specialist authorized by the company.
The machine may only be programmed, cleaned and set up by the person installing
the machine or persons instructed in using the machine by the manufacturer.
The ground coffee used in this machine must be suitable for use in commercial
coffee machines.
The instant powder must be suited to use in automatic machines

h) Operating parameters
This function enables you to:
● determine three “Fast” times per day, during which the storage urn is kept
permanently full irrespective of the storage volume setting.
● set a starting time (Auto-on) at which the machine should automatically start
to brew the storage volume. The condition for this is:
- that the machine is switched on,
- that the machine is cleaned and that the automatic cleaning program
has also run since last operation. Otherwise the machine will stop at this
step after starting.
● that all products are filled up and the water supply is turned on.
The timer function should not be used to operate the machine without supervi-
sion it should simply free the operator from having to constantly think about the
starting time.
● automatically switch off the machine after the fully automatic cleaning
program is finished.
● set two cleaning times per day: If one such time is exceeded, a reminder
is displayed and only max. 50 products can still be dispensed.

4.5 Manager functions
In order to maintain the value and hygiene of your
coffee machine, it should be cleaned carefully
according to the following instructions:
a) Cleaning intervals
The cleaning program must be carried out at least
1x per day normally before or after business and
especially before longer periods of inactivity (e.g.
weekends).
Interim cleaning with the cleaning program is
necessary after no more than 12 hours of
operation (i.e. clean at least 2 x per 24 hours).
Manual cleaning is also necessary:
● daily: mixer unit / storage urn
● weekly: instant powder container / ground coffee
container
● monthly: funnel drawer / feed screw for instant
container
● when necessary: machine housing, rough sieve
in the water supply pipe.
b) Automatic reminder
The machine can be set to remind you automatically
at two different times to run the cleaning program
(see “Manager functions”)
The automatic cleaning program is activated if:
● one of these cleaning times is exceeded and
● the machine has been in operation at least 1
hour since the last cleaning and also
● at least one product has been dispensed.
● the “Cleaning” (1) and “Ready to dispense”
symbols are shown alternately in the display.
Only 50 products can then still be dispensed until the
start of the cleaning program.
c) Before the start of the cleaning program:
● First insert the spray protection plate (2), as
illustrated. This prevents users from being
scalded by very hot cleaning water.
Warning!
During cleaning, ensure that the machine is:
● never immersed in water
● never doused with water
● never sprayed down with a water hose.
● Do not spray the installation area, e.g.
with a water pipe or high-pressure
cleaner.
There can be a danger of electrocution if wa-
ter enters the machine and makes contacts
with elements carrying electricity.
Before carrying out any manual cleaning, first
pull out the mains plug and let the machine
cool down.
This avoids the danger of automatically
touching hot or moving parts during cleaning.

d) Starting the cleaning program
When the spray protection plate has been inserted,
as described in c):
● Open the machine door and press the “Start” (S)
key (three acoustic signals are given). Close the
door again.
The display shows the selection menu (3). Select
the function
● Mixer unit - if you only want to rinse the
mixer unit (takes approx. 1 min.).
● Brewing system - if you wish to clean the
brewing system (takes approx. 22 min.). This
cannot be selected, however, if a brewing
process is currently running.
If there is any remaining coffee in the storage
urn, the machine asks if you would like to collect
it. In this case,
● place a jug under the beverage outlet and
● start the dispensing of remaining coffee with
key 8 (enter).
The rinsing phase now begins. After approx. 2 min.
the machine announces via several acoustic signals
and a display symbol that the cleaning tablet should
be inserted. Do not insert the tablet before this time,
as it may already dissolve during the rinsing phase.
● Open the door again and lift the lid.
● Push the cleaning chute cover (T) open and insert
a MELITTA® cleaning tablet.
● Place four further cleaning tablets in the storage
urn (I).
● Remove any coating in the storage urnwith the
brush supplied and wait approx. 30 seconds.
● When everything is closed again, confirm the
insertion of cleaning tablets by pressing the
key.
The cleaning program now continues. After it is
complete, the machine will either start brewing, or
switch itself off according to the setting made in the
manager functions.
Always pay attention when throwing in the cleaning tablets! They must never be thrown
into the wrong container especially not into the ground coffee container!
The cleaning tablet contains substances which can damage your health if swallowed
and can irritate the eyes and skin!
Please observe the safety precautions provided with the cleaning tablets. Consult a doc-
tor if any problems develop after handling the cleaning tablets.
