-
The indicator light flashes while the water heats up. Heating
up takes approx. 90 seconds.
The coffee machine is ready for use when the indicator light lights
up continuously.
Placing a pod holder
1 Move the lever upwards to release and open the lid (Fig. 4).
2 Place the SENSEO® coffee pod(s) properly in the center of the
pod holder, with the convex side pointing downwards.
-
Place 1 SENSEO® coffee pod in the 1-cup pod holder to
brew one cup of coffee (Fig. 11).
-
Place 2 SENSEO® coffee pods in the 2-cup pod holder to
brew two cups of coffee (Fig. 12).
Note: Use SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially
developed for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full and
round taste.
Note: Make sure the pod holder is clean and the sieve in the
center is not clogged, e.g. with loose coffee grounds.
Note: Make sure the coffee in the pod(s) is evenly distributed
and press the pod(s) lightly into the pod holder.
3 Close the lid and lock the lever (Fig. 7).
-
Always make sure the lid is properly locked. Push down the
lever until it snaps home with a click.
Warning: Never start brewing with the lid open. The lid
must be properly closed.
Brewing coffee
1 Place one cup or two cups under the coffee outflow unit. The
cups you use should have a capacity of at least 5.0 fl.oz.
(150 ml). Do not use cups that are too large, as they cause the
coffee to get cold more quickly.
2 Press the button that indicates the number of cups of
SENSEO® coffee you want to brew.
-
Press the 1-cup button once for one large mild cup of coffee
(Fig. 13).
Tip: Press the same button twice for one strong small cup of
coffee. The indicator light shines less bright to indicate you
have pressed the same button twice.
-
Press the 2-cup button once for two large mild cups of
coffee (Fig. 14).
Tip: Press the same button twice for two strong small cups of
coffee. The indicator light shines less bright to indicate you
have pressed the same button twice.
-
The SENSEO® coffee machine starts brewing. The machine
automatically supplies the optimal amount of water.
Warning: Do not remove the water reservoir during a
brewing cycle, as this will cause the machine to draw in air.
3 After use, lift the pod holder out of the machine and remove
the coffee pod(s). Be careful when you do this, for there may
still be some water/coffee on the coffee pod(s).
4 After use, press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
Note: If you do not use the machine, it switches off
automatically after 30 minutes to save energy.
Note: Never put normal ground coffee or use torn pods in the
SENSEO® machine, as this causes it to become blocked.

Cleaning the machine

Never immerse the machine in water or any other liquid.
Never clean the machine by flushing it with the lid open.
Cleaning the coffee machine
1 Always unplug the machine before you clean it.
2 Clean the outside of the machine with a moist cloth.
3 Remove the coffee outflow unit (Fig. 15).
-
You can disassemble the coffee outflow unit for more
thorough cleaning (Fig. 16).
4 Clean the coffee outflow unit, the pod holders, the drip tray,
the cup tray and the water reservoir in hot water, if necessary
with some dishwashing liquid, or in the dishwasher (Fig. 17).
5 To prevent clogging, clean the pod holders regularly with hot
water, some dishwashing liquid and a dishwashing brush. If
you have used the 2-cup pod holder to brew cappuccino or
hot chocolate, make sure to clean it thoroughly immediately
after use to remove any milk residues (Fig. 18).
Note: Use the pod holder in the machine during descaling to
clean it even more effectively.
6 Clean the water distribution disk with a moist cloth. Be careful
when you do this. Make sure that the rubber sealing ring does
not get stuck under the edge of the water distribution disk. If it
does, the coffee machine starts to leak (Fig. 19).
Flushing the coffee machine
If you have not used the coffee machine for three days, flush it
with clean cold water before you use it again. Flush the machine
in the following way:
1 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX
indication and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
2 Put the 1-cup pod holder or the 2-cup pod holder in the
machine without pod(s) (Fig. 6).
3 Put a bowl with a capacity at least 1.6 qt (1.5 liters) under the
coffee outflow unit to collect the water (Fig. 8).
4 Press the on/off button. Wait until the machine has heated up.
Then press the 2-cup button several times until the water
reservoir is empty (Fig. 20).
Descaling
When to descale
Descale the SENSEO® coffee machine frequently. Preferably
descale 4 to 6 times a year, but at least once every 3 months.
There is no difference between soft-water and hard-water areas
in this respect. Descaling takes about 30 minutes. Do not
interrupt the descaling process.
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to
descale the SENSEO
Your reasons to descale:
- It prolongs the life of your SENSEO
- 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.
Use the correct descaler
Only citric acid-based descalers are suitable for descaling the
SENSEO® 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. Use a new descaling mixture each time.
Descaling procedure
The descaling procedure consists of 2 descaling cycles, each with
1 liter of descaling mixture, and 2 flushing cycles. Do not interrupt
the descaling cycles and do not switch off the machine before or
between the flushing cycles.
1 Press the on/off button to turn on the machine (Fig. 10).
2 Place the 1-cup pod holder with a used coffee pod in it in the
coffee machine. Close the lid and make sure it is properly
locked.
3 Mix the descaler powder with 1 quart (1 liter) of water in a
measuring jug. Stir until the powder is completely dissolved
(Fig. 21).
Note: You have to use 2 quarts (2 liters) of descaling mixture:
one liter for each descaling cycle.
