When using electric l ppli nces, b sic s fety prec utions should lw ys be
followed, including the following:
Re d ll instructions before inst ll tion or use of the coffee system.
Please read these instructions care-
fully to prevent accidents and
machine damage.
This appliance is for household use
only. Any other use is not recom-
mended by the manufacturer and
could be dangerous.
This appliance complies with current
safety requirements. Improper use of
the appliance can cause personal
injury and material damage.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
Electric l s fety
Before connecting the appliance to
the electrical supply, make sure
that the voltage and frequency listed on
the data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. If in doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
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. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for dam-
ages caused by the lack, or inade-
quacy of, an effective grounding
system.
The appliance must be built into
cabinetry before operation to
ensure that no electrical components
are accessible. Ensure that electrical
power is not supplied to the appliance
while installation work, repairs or
maintenance is performed.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect the appliance to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance
(danger of overheating).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4

Never open the housing of the
appliance. If electrical or mech-
anical components or electrical
connections are disturbed, an electric
shock could be caused damaging the
machine.
Before service or maintenance,
disconnect the power supply by
either removing the fuse, "tripping" the
circuit breaker or unplugging the unit
from the outlet.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean
the appliance. Pressurized steam
could damage electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
To protect against fire, electric
shock and injury to persons do not
immerse cord or plugs in water or other
liquid.
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
Miele dealer for examination, repair or
adjustment.
Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
Inst ll tion
Installation work and repairs should
only be performed by a trained
technician to ensure safety. Repairs
and other work by unauthorized
persons could be dangerous.
This equipment has not been
designed for maritime use or for
use in mobile installations such as air-
craft or recreational vehicles. However,
under certain circumstances it may be
possible for an installation in these
applications. Please contact the near-
est Miele Dealer or the Miele Technical
Service Department with specific
requirements.
If the coffee system is to be
installed above another appliance,
there must be a full-width, closed shelf
between the appliances. (The shelf is
not necessary when installation is in
combination with the Miele Built-in plate
warmer.)
Before the appliance is connected,
the steam selector must be in the
off position to prevent an uncontrolled
escape of steam or hot water and
possible burns.
Always attach plug to appliance
first, then plug cord into the wall
outlet. To disconnect, turn program
selector to "Off", then remove plug from
wall outlet.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use
The coffee system must be cleaned
daily to prevent the growth of harm-
ful bacteria and mold. Please read
the "Coffee system care" section of
this booklet.
Warning: There is a danger of scald-
ing. The nozzles and the liquids
dispensed are very hot.
The hot water and steam dis-
pensed could cause scalding.
These functions must be used carefully.
Never direct the steam nozzle towards
the body.
The machine must never be used to
clean objects.
To prevent burns, turn the steam
selector to the off position when not
needed.
The steam nozzle and hot water
dispensers become very hot
during use. Always grip the steam
nozzle by the insulated collar.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles or knobs.
Allow the coffee system to cool
before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
Children should not use the
appliance unsupervised.
Do not use
outdoors.
The use of accessory attachments
not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may result in
fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
In areas subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, keep
the appliance and its surroundings
clean at all times. Any damage caused
by pests will not be covered under
warranty.
The water lines must be flushed
and the machine cleaned
thoroughly before the first coffee is
prepared.
Only fill the water tank with cold,
fresh drinking water. The water
must be changed daily to prevent
bacteria or mold growth.
Dispos l of n old m chine
Before discarding an old machine,
turn it off and unplug it. Cut off the
power cord and remove any doors to
prevent hazards.

Determining the w ter
h rdness
The hardness of the water (tap or bot-
tled) used in the coffee system must be
determined and programmed into the
appliance. The water hardness will
determine how frequently the unit must
be descaled to maintain the coffee
system properly. The machine monitors
the volume of water passing through it
in conjunction with the hardness of the
water and will indicate when descaling
is necessary. Your local water authority
can tell you the hardness of your tap
water or you can measure the hardness
yourself using the enclosed test strip.
^Dip the strip in your drinking water for
one second, then shake off excess
water.
The result will be evident after a minute.
If the water hardness is greater than
40 gr/gal (700 ppm), the water must
be mixed in equal parts with
non-carbonated mineral water to
prevent excessive scale build-up.
Never use distilled water.
Use programming option "Water hard-
ness" to program the water hardness.
