The POD Six coffee system
Make your coffee moments truly special with The POD Six coffee.
This unique system combines the easy-to-use POD Six coffee machine
with the specially developed French café The POD Six coffee pods, giving
you a full, smooth coffee with a delicious foam layer.
The POD Six coffee in convenient coffee pods and Philips’ unique new
brewing system are perfectly matched to ensure that the best taste and
aroma are extracted from the coffee.
To ensure a smooth and full coffee taste, you should keep the following
things in mind:
Fresh water
Use fresh water every day. If you have not used the pod coffee machine for
one day, you have to ush it with fresh water before you use it again
(see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
Fresh coffee pods
Use French café The POD Six coffee pods that have been specially
developed for your pod coffee machine for a full, round taste.
A clean machine with the new ushing and descaling
procedures
Note: Philips has improved the ushing and descaling procedures. See chapters
‘Cleaning’ and ‘Descaling’ for the new procedures.
Clean and descale The POD Six coffee machine regularly.
- Remove used coffee pods after brewing. If a used pod has been left in
the pod coffee machine and you have not used the machine for some
time, ush the machine before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in
chapter ‘Cleaning’).
- If you have not used the pod coffee machine for one day, you have to
ush the machine with fresh water before you use the machine again
(see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
- Descale the pod coffee machine as described in chapter ‘Descaling’
when the CALC light goes on (after you have brewed approx.
400 cups of coffee).You can also descale the pod coffee machine more
often (every 3 months) in the same way. Descaling takes 20 to
30 minutes. Do not interrupt the descaling process.

Descaling (new procedure)
When to descale
- Descale the pod coffee machine as described below when the CALC
light goes on (after you have brewed approx. 400 cups of coffee).
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to descale the
pod coffee machine at least every 3 months.Your reasons to descale:
- It prolongs the life of your pod coffee machine
- It ensures maximum cup volume
- It ensures maximum coffee temperature
- The machine produces less sound during brewing
- It prevents malfunctioning
If the descaling procedure is not performed correctly, scale residue remains
behind in the machine.This causes scale to build up more quickly and may
cause permanent and irreparable damage to the machine.
ENGLISH16

Use the correct descaling agent
Only citric acid-based descalers are suitable for descaling the machine.
This type of descaler descales the machine without damaging it. For the correct
amount, see under ‘Descaling procedure’ below. Each descaling mixture can be
used only once. After use, the descaling mixture is no longer active.
We advise you to use the special Descaler (HD7012, HD7011, HD7006).
For more information about this descaler, visit our website www.philips.com.
Never use a descaling agent based on mineral acids such as sulphuric
acid, hydrochloric acid, sulphamic acid and acetic acid (e.g. vinegar).
These descaling agents may damage your pod coffee machine.
Descaling procedure
Note: The descaling procedure for this machine differs from that of previous
models.
Note: The descaling procedure consist of 2 descaling cycles and 2 ushing
cycles. Do not interrupt the descaling cycles and do not switch off the machine
before or between the ushing cycles.
1 Press the on/off button 3.
,The machine is ready for use when the light ring lights up
continuously.
2 Mix 50 grams of citric acid with 1 litre of water. Fill the water
reservoir with the descaler mixture.
3 Put the water reservoir back onto the pod coffee machine.
4 Placethe1-cuppodholderqwith a used coffee pod in it in the pod
coffee machine. Close the lid and make sure it is properly locked.
Make sure the lid is closed properly and the lid lever is locked before
you start descaling the machine.
Note: Always put a used coffee pod in the pod holder when you descale the
machine. This pod serves as a ‘lter’ to prevent the sieve or hole in the pod
holder from getting clogged with scale residue.
ENGLISH 17

5 Put a bowl with a capacity of at least 1500ml under the spout to
collect the descaling mixture.
6 Pressthe1-cupbuttonqandthe2-cupbuttonqqbrieyatthe
same time to start the descaling cycle.
,The CALC light and the light ring around the on/off button starts
ashingtoindicatethatthedescalingcyclehasstarted.
,Hot water comes out of the coffee spout in intervals. During the
descaling cycle, the machine stops descaling 3 to 4 times to let the
descaler mixture act and to heat up.
Let the machine complete the entire descaling cycle, which takes 4 to
5 minutes. Do not switch off the machine during the descaling cycle!
,Whenallthewaterinthewaterreservoirhasbeenusedup,therst
descalingcycleisnished.Thelightringaroundtheon/offbutton
startstoashrapidly.
7 Repeat the descaling procedure (steps 2 to 6) once. Replace the used
podwithanotherusedpodtolteroutthescaleresidue.
Note: Do not rell the water reservoir with the used descaling mixture.
8 Rinse the water reservoir with tap water. Fill the water reservoir up
to the MAX indication with tap water and repeat steps 3 and 6.
Note: Do not rell the water reservoir with used hot water.
9 Fill the water reservoir with fresh tap water up to the MAX
indication again and repeat steps 5 and 6 once more.
Note: Always rinse the machine by letting it empty two full water reservoirs.
10 Remove the used pod and clean the pod holder after descaling to
prevent the sieve in the centre from getting clogged.
Frost-free storage
After you have ushed the machine for the rst time (see chapter
‘Before rst use’), it may only be used and stored in a frost-free place to
prevent damage.

Troubleshooting
This chapter summarises the most common problems you could encounter
with the machine. If you are unable to solve the problem with the
information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently
asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.
Problem Solution
The light ring around
the on/off button ashes
slowly.
You have used the pod coffee machine at an altitude higher than
2200 metres above sea level.This has caused the water in the machine to
start boiling before it has reached the required temperature, which prevents
the machine from functioning properly. Switch off the machine and no longer
use it at altitudes higher than 2200 metres above sea level.
The CALC light ashes. You have pressed the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button at the same time.
This started the descaling cycle. If you did not intend to start the descaling
cycle, simply press the on/off button to switch off the machine. If you did
intend to start the descaling cycle, do not interrupt this cycle but let the
appliance operate until the water reservoir is empty.
The CALC light does not
go out after descaling.
The CALC light does not go out if the descaling procedure has not been
performed correctly.To perform the descaling procedure correctly:
ENGLISH 19

Problem Solution
Make sure you start the descaling cycle by pressing the 1-cup button and
the 2-cup button at the same time. See chapter ‘Descaling’ for a complete
description of the descaling procedure.
Make sure you do not interrupt the descaling cycle. During the descaling
cycle, hot water comes out of the coffee spout at intervals and the machine
stops descaling 3 to 4 times to let the descaling mixture act and to heat up
again. If you press the on/off button to interrupt this cycle, the CALC light
stays description of the descaling procedure.
Make sure you use four full water reservoirs to complete the descaling
procedure: two reservoirs lled with descaling mixture and two reservoirs
lled with fresh water. You start the two descaling cycles and the two ushing
cycles by pressing the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button at the same time.
If you do not complete the descaling procedure, scale residues remain
behind in the machine.This causes scale to build up more quickly and may
cause permanent and irreparable damage to the machine.
Do not switch the machine off during the descale process. If you switch off
the machine, you have to restart the whole descaling procedure.
The light ring around the
on/off button continues
to ash rapidly.
Make sure that:
the water reservoir is placed properly;
there is enough water in the water reservoir (i.e. above the qMIN level if
you want to brew 1 cup);
the ambient temperature is not lower than 10°C. If it is, the machine does
not function properly.
Water leaks from the
pod coffee machine.
Make sure that:
the water reservoir has not been lled beyond the MAX level;
the sieve in the centre of the pod holder is not clogged. If it is, unclog the
sieve by holding the pod holder under a running tap;
the coffee pod has been put properly in the centre of the pod holder;
the sealing ring has not got stuck under the edge of the water distribution
disc (see gure 1 at the beginning of this user manual).
the water drops on the worktop are not the result of placing or removing
the water reservoir or removing used coffee pods.
you do not remove the water reservoir when the pod coffee machine
is heating up.This may cause water that normally ends up in the water
reservoir to leak out of the machine.
In all other cases, contact the Philips Consumer Care Centre in your country.
I cannot take the coffee
spout out of the machine.
You can only remove the coffee spout after you have removed the coffee
collector.
