Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are recycled.
Disposal of your old appliance
or machine
Electrical and electronic appliances /
machines often 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 appliance or machine. Please do
not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply by a competent person. The
plug must be rendered useless and the
cable cut off directly behind it to
prevent misuse.

Description of the machine

This machine complies with all
relevant legal safety requirements.
Improper use can, however, present
a risk of both personal injury and
material damage.
To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the machine, please read
these instructions carefully before
installation and before using it for the
first time. They contain important
notes on the installation, safety,
operation and care of the machine.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any
future owner.
Correct use
The machine is intended for
domestic use only for the
preparation of espresso, cappuccino
and coffee. Any other usage is not
supported by the manufacturer and
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for damage
resulting from incorrect or improper use
or operation.
Technical safety
Before connecting the machine to
the mains supply, make sure the
rating on the data plate corresponds to
the voltage and frequency of the
household supply. Consult a qualified
electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this
machine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with current local and national
safety regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
present and regularly tested, and where
there is any doubt, the household
wiring system should be inspected by a
qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for damage or injury caused by the lack
of or inadequacy of an effective
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
The machine must be built in
before operation to ensure that no
electrical components are accessible.
Do not connect the machine to the
mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the machine (e.g.
danger of overheating).
The second electrical connection
socket on the back of the machine
may only be used for connecting a
Miele EGW 4000-14 or 29 plate warmer.
Connection of any other appliance
would damage the machine.
When installed in the mobile unit
(optional extra) the machine is not
suitable for use in the open air.
Warning and Safety instructions
8

This equipment may only be used
in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
The machine is not suitable for
connection to a hot water supply.
This would cause damage.
The stopcock must be accessible
for servicing work after the coffee
machine has been built-in.
The protective sleeve of the water
inlet hose must not be damaged or
kinked. This will cause it to leak.
The integrated Waterproof system
offers protection from water
damage, provided the following
conditions are met:
– The machine is correctly installed
and plumbed in.
– The machine is properly maintained
and parts are replaced where it can
be seen that this is necessary.
–The stopcock is turned off when the
machine is not used for a longer
period of time (e.g. during holidays).
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by suitably
qualified and competent persons in
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous and the
manufacturer will not be held liable.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
machine until after installation,
maintenance or repair work has been
carried out.
The machine is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– the mains fuse is withdrawn,
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
– it has been switched off at the wall
socket and the plug has been
withdrawn.
Never open the housing 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.
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).
Warning and Safety instructions

Use
Caution. Danger of scalding. The
spouts and the liquids dispensed
are very hot.
Never look directly at the lighting or
use optical instruments to look at it.
The use of the machine by the
elderly or infirm or those who have
not used the appliance before should
be supervised by a competent and
responsible person to avoid the risk of
injury.
This machine is not a toy! To avoid
the risk of injury, keep children well
away and do not let them play with it or
use the controls. Their skin is very
sensitive and reacts to hot
temperatures. Danger of scalding.
Remember that coffee and espresso
are not suitable drinks for children.
The water piping and the
Cappuccinatore must be rinsed
through and the machine cleaned
thoroughly before the first drink is
prepared.
If using the water container and not
the plumbed in water supply, fill the
water container with cold, fresh tap
water only. Warm or hot water or other
liquids could damage the machine.
Change the water every day to
prevent a build up of bacteria.
If using the water container, do not
on any account use mineral water.
Mineral water will cause serious
limescale deposits to build up in your
machine and damage it.
Never put anything other than
roasted espresso/coffee beans in
the coffee bean container. It must never
be filled with ground coffee as this
could damage the grinder.
The ground coffee chute must
never be filled with anything other
than ground coffee or brew unit
cleaning tablets. Otherwise the
machine will be damaged.
Sugar can damage the coffee
machine. Only use pure coffee
beans. Do not use coffee beans which
have been treated with anything
containing caramel, any kind of sugar
or any other substances. Do not put
drinks containing sugar, or instant
coffee in the machine.
Never place a drink with ignited
alcohol under the spouts. The
flames could ignite plastic components
and cause fire damage.
The hot water and steam could
cause scalding. Be very careful
when using these functions. Make sure
you do not come into contact with
steam or hot water. The machine must
never be used for cleaning objects.
Do not use the coffee machine if
the Cappucinatore has been
dismantled. Danger of scalding by hot
steam!
