Technical safety
~Installation work and repairs must
only be performed by a trained
technician in accordance with national
and local safety regulations. Repairs
and other work by unauthorized
persons could be dangerous and may
void the warranty.
~A damaged coffee system can be
dangerous. Before installing the coffee
machine, check for externally visible
damage. Do not operate a damaged
unit.
~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.
~To prevent damage to the coffee
machine, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate (fuse
rating, voltage and frequency) matches
the electrical power supply. Check this
before connecting the machine.
If in doubt, contact a qualified
electrician.
~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).
~For safety reasons, this coffee
machine may only be used once it has
been safely installed.
~If the machine is installed in
combination with other appliances, a
protective base should be installed
between the appliance and the unit.
~The coffee machine must not be
used in mobile installations such as
boats.
~Only use the coffee machine in
ambient temperatures between +50°F/
10°C and +100°F/38 °C.
~Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation around the coffee machine.
The ventilation openings in the
surrounding cabinets and the space
below the ceiling must be at least
78 3/4"2(200 cm2). Otherwise
condensation can form, causing
damage to the coffee machine or the
surrounding cabinets.
~Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
~If the coffee system is installed in a
closed kitchen cabinet, use it only with
the cabinet door open. Do not close the
cabinet door when the coffee system is
in operation.
~The water supply must be
accessible after installation.
~Only use Miele original spare parts.
Only then can the manufacturer
guarantee the safety of this machine.
~Do not damage or kink the cover of
the water intake hose.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
6

~The integrated waterproof system
will effectively protect the machine from
water damage if the following
conditions are met:
–The coffee machine is installed
correctly (electricity and water
supply).
–The coffee machine is immediately
repaired if any damage is detected.
–The water supply is shut off during
extended periods of non-use (e.g.
vacation).
~Before service or maintenance
disconnect the power supply by either
removing the fuse, “tripping” the circuit
breaker or unplugging the unit.

appliance. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and
mechanical parts is dangerous and
may cause machine damage.
~Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
~To reduce the risk of injury, do not
drape cord over the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
~To protect against fire, electric
shock and injury to persons do not
immerse cord, plugs, or coffee machine
in water or other liquid.
Proper use
,The coffee and hot water
dispensers present a danger of
burning or scalding!
The dispensed liquids and steam
are extremely hot.
The water in the drip tray may be
very hot as well. Be careful when
emptying it.
Please note:
–Keep away from the areas under the
coffee and hot water dispensers
when beverages or steam are being
dispensed.
– Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles or knobs.
– The spouts can spray hot liquid or
steam. Be sure the main dispenser is
fitted correctly and only use it if it is
clean.
,Never look into the lighting
directly or with an optical
instrument.
~Do not use the coffee machine to
clean objects.
~Before the first use, clean the coffee
system and milk container thoroughly
(see "Cleaning and care").
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~Please note the following regarding
water:
–Without a plumbed water supply:
Only fill the water tank with cold,
fresh tap water. Hot water or other
liquids can damage the coffee
system.
–Change the water every day to
prevent a build-up of bacteria.
When using a plumbed water supply:
Empty the water tank once a day.
–Do not use mineral water. Mineral
water will cause a lot of limescale to
build up in your coffee system and
damage it.
– Do not use water from reverse
osmosis units. This could damage
the appliance.
~Fill the bean container with roasted
whole coffee beans only. Do not fill the
bean container with coffee beans which
have been treated or with ground
coffee.
~Do not use raw coffee beans (green,
unroasted coffee beans) or coffee
blends that include raw coffee. Raw
coffee beans are very hard and contain
mositure that will damage the grinder.
~Sugar will destroy the system! Do
not use coffee beans which have been
treated with caramel, sugar, etc. or fill
the coffee system with other liquids that
contain sugar.
~Do not fill anything into the ground
coffee chute except ground coffee or a
Miele cleaning tablet for degreasing the
brew unit.
~Do not use flavored ground coffee in
the machine. The sugar content on
these grounds clogs the brew unit of
the machine. The cleaning tablet is not
enough to remove the residue.
~Only use plain milk. Most additives
contain sugar, which will clog the milk
pipework and damage the coffee
system.
~If you use dairy milk, use only
pasteurized milk.
~Never place a cup with a burning
alcohol-coffee mixture underneath the
main dispenser. This could cause the
plastic parts of the coffee system to
catch fire and melt.
~Do not lean on the open coffee
machine door, or apply any pressure to
it. Otherwise, the coffee machine could
be damaged.
~The use of accessory attachments
not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may result in fire, electric
shock or injury to persons.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~Please note the following with
regard to cleaning the coffee machine:
–Before cleaning and maintenance
switch off the appliance and
disconnect circuit breaker.
–Clean the coffee system and milk
container daily (see "Cleaning and
care").
–The steam dispensed by a steam
cleaner can reach the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean
the coffee machine.
– Descale the coffee machine regularly
with the appropriate number of Miele
descaling tablets for the water
hardness level in your area. Descale
the machine more frequently in areas
with very hard water.
– Degrease the brew unit regularly with
the supplied Miele cleaning tablets.
Depending on the natural oil content
of the coffee used, the brew unit can
become blocked quite quickly.
~The main dispenser connector cap
is lubricated with silicone grease. Be
careful of your clothing when removing
or inserting containers or other inside
components .
For machines with stainless
steel trim:
~Do not use sticky notes, transparent
adhesive tape, masking tape or other
types of adhesive on the surface of the
trim. These damage the surface,
causing it to lose its dirt repellent
protective coating.
~The surface of the stainless steel
trim is susceptible to scratching. Even
magnets can cause scratches to
appear.
Preparing your appliance for
an extended vacation
~If you elect to turn off the water to
your home for an extended period of
time, please note that this may not be
enough to reduce the risk of a leak.
To be completely safe, you must turn
off the water supply to each individual
appliance. This means under the sink
for a dishwasher, at the laundry bib for
your washer, etc.

Water hardness
Water hardness is an indication of the
amount of minerals dissolved in water.
The higher the mineral content, the
harder the water. And the harder the
water, the more often the coffee
machine will need to be descaled.
The coffee machine monitors the
quantity of water and steam used. The
number of beverages that can be
dispensed before the machine needs to
be descaled will depend on the water
hardness level set.
Set the water hardness level on the
coffee machine to the water hardness
level for the local area to ensure that
the machine functions correctly and is
not damaged. This will ensure that the
reminder to descale the machine will
appear in the display at the correct
time. If unsure of your water hardness
contact your local water authority.
You can program four hardness levels
on the machine:
Water hardness Hardness
