Introduction
With the Senseo™ coffee machine by Philips you can enjoy a perfect
cup of coffee - topped with a rich frothy coffee layer - whenever you
feel like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you're always sure of that
pure, smooth taste.The patented Senseo brewing system from Philips
in combination with the special Senseo coffee pods makes sure you get
only the very best in flavor and aroma from freshly roasted coffee.
To optimize the taste of the coffee, you should keep the following
aspects in mind:
Fresh water
Use fresh water every day. Before using for the first time or if you have
not used the machine for some time, rinse the water reservoir, fill it
with fresh water and flush the machine before you begin brewing
coffee (see ‘Preparing the machine for use’).
Senseo coffee pods
In order to avoid damage, use only Senseo coffee pods that have been
specifically developed for your Senseo coffee machine for a pure,
smooth taste.The Senseo coffee pods will stay fresh longer if you close
the package by means of the keep-fresh seal after use or if you store
them in a storage container.
A clean machine
Scale build-up may cause overheating of the heating element and may
make the safety cut-out operate prematurely, switching off before the
water boils. Scale may also reduce the working life of the machine and
may lengthen the brewing time.
Clean and descale your Philips Senseo coffee machine regularly (see
'Cleaning' and 'Descaling'). Remove used coffee pods after brewing. If a
used pod has been left in the coffee machine and you have not used
the machine for some time, flush the machine before you use it again
(see 'Preparing the machine for use').

Preparing the machine for use
◗Use this Senseo coffee machine for its intended household use as
described in this manual.
YOU CANNOT BREW COFFEE IF YOU HAVE NOT
FLUSHED THE SENSEO COFFEE MACHINE FIRST!
The flushing cycle causes the boiler to be filled with water. After this
the coffee machine is ready for use.
Flush the machine in the following way:
C1Remove the water reservoir.
C2Fill the water reservoir with cold water up to the MAX
indication and put it back into the machine.
C3Release the lid by moving the lever upwards.
C4Open the lid.
8

C5Put either the 1- or 2-pod holder in the machine without using
any coffee pod(s).
C6Close the lid and lock the lever.
BMake sure the lever is properly locked by pushing it down until it snaps
home with a click.
BNever flush the machine with the lid open! The lid must be properly
locked.
7Put the plug into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
C
8Put a bowl (with a capacity of at least 1.5 liters/1.6 qt.) under
the coffee outflow unit to collect the water.
C9Press on/off button I.Then press both the °and °°
buttons briefly at the same time.
◗The machine will fill itself with water from the water reservoir.
This will take some time and you will probably not notice that this
is happening.After a while, the machine will start flushing and it will
switch itself off after the flushing cycle. During the flushing cycle
the machine produces more noise than during a regular brewing
cycle.
BBefore brewing coffee for the first time, clean the coffee outflow unit and
the pod holders with hot water and some dish soap or in a dishwasher.
Clean the water reservoir thoroughly in hot water, if necessary with some
dish soap.
◗Now your Philips Senseo coffee machine is ready for use!
