Caution

-

Always return the machine to a service center

authorized by Philips for examination or

repair. Do not attempt to repair the machine

yourself, otherwise your warranty becomes

invalid.

- After unpacking the machine, never put your

SENSEO® machine on its side. Always keep it

in upright position, also during transport.

- Never put normal ground coffee or use torn

pods in the machine, as this causes it to

become blocked.

- Do not use the machine in combination with

a transformer, as this could cause hazardous

situations.

- Always put the machine on a flat and stable

surface.

- Do not place the appliance on a hotplate,

directly next to a hot oven, heater or similar

source of heat.

- Descale the machine at least every 3 months.

Not doing so may cause the machine to stop

working properly. In this case, repair is not

covered under your warranty.

- Never let the machine operate unattended.

- Do not use the machine at altitudes higher

than 2200 metres above sea level.

- Do not use the machine at a temperature

below 0°C. Water left in the machine may

freeze and cause damage.

- Never pour any other liquid than clean cold

water into the water reservoir.

- Never flush the machine or let it brew coffee

when the spout is not in place.

- Flush the coffee machine with fresh water

before you use it for the first time (see

chapter ‘First use’). This causes the system to

fill with water, which is essential for the

machine to work properly.

- Do not use the SENSEO® machine in

combination with water softeners based on

sodium exchange.

- Philips strongly advises you to descale this

SENSEO® regularly. If the machine is not

descaled in time and according to the

procedure described in chapter ‘Descaling’,

this may lead to technical failures.

- Never interrupt the descaling process.

- 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 coffee machine.

- The machine is intended for normal

household use only. It is not intended for use

in environments such as staff kitchens of

shops, offices, farms or other work

environments. Nor is it intended to be used

by clients in hotels, motels, bed and

breakfast and other residential environments.

Compliance with standards

- This Philips appliance complies with all applicable standards and
regulations regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields.
- The energy consumption of this machine in off mode is less than 1 watt.
This means that this machine complies with European Directive
2005/32/EC, which sets the ecological design requirements for energy-
using products.

First use

Unpacking

1 Remove the machine from the box.
Note: Make sure you store the 2-cup pod holder in a safe place. It is an
essential part
of the machine.

Flushing the machine to fill the system

Warning: You cannot brew coffee if you have not flushed the
SENSEO®
coffee machine first!
The flushing cycle causes the system to fill with water. After this, the coffee
machine is
ready for use. Flush the machine in the following way:
1 Remove the water reservoir (Fig. 2).
2 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication
and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
3 Move the lever upwards to release the lid (Fig. 4).
4 Open the lid (Fig. 5).
5 Put the 1-cup pod holder or the 2-cup pod holder in the machine
without pod(s) (Fig. 6).
6 Close the lid and lock the lever (Fig. 7).
Note: Make sure you lock the lever properly. Push it down until it snaps
home with
a click.
Note: Never flush the machine with the lid open. The lid must be
properly
locked.
7 Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.
8 Put a bowl (with a capacity of at least 1500ml) under the coffee spout to
collect the water (Fig. 8).
9 Press the on/off button and subsequently press the 1-cup button and
the 2-cup button briefly at the same time (Fig. 9).
-
The system fills itself with water from the water reservoir. This takes
some time (approx. 90 to 150 seconds). The machine switches off
automatically when the flushing cycle ends. During the flushing cycle,
the machine produces more noise than during a regular brewing
cycle.
Note: Before you use the machine for the first time, clean the coffee spout
and the pod holders
with hot water and some washing-up liquid or in the
dishwasher. Clean the water reservoir thoroughly in hot water, if necessary
with some washing-up liquid (see chapter 'Cleaning the machine').
Now your Philips SENSEO® coffee machine is ready for use.

Brewing SENSEO® coffee

Tips for the best SENSEO® quality

- Use clean cold water every time.
- Use the SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed for
your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full, round taste.

Filling the water reservoir

1 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication
and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
Warning: Never pour any other liquid than clean cold water into
the
water reservoir.
- MIN: minimum amount of water required to brew 1 cup of SENSEO®
coffee.
-
A full reservoir allows you to make SENSEO® coffee a number of times.
This makes it unnecessary to fill the water reservoir each time you want
to make a cup of coffee.

Switching on the machine

1 Press the on/off button (Fig. 10).
-
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 centre 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.
