Intended use

Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not connect the appliance if it has been damaged in transport.

This appliance is intended for domestic use only.

Only use the appliance indoors at room temperature and up to 2000 m above sea level.

Important safety information

Please read carefully, follow and retain the operating instructions. When passing on the appliance, enclose these instructions.

This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and if they understand the hazards involved. Keep children under 8 years of age away from the appliance and connecting cable and do not allow them to use the appliance. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children unless they are older than 8 years and supervised.

Warning

Danger of electric shock!

■ The appliance may only be connected to a power supply with alternating current via a correctly installed socket with earthing. Ensure that the protective conductor system of the domestic electricity supply has been correctly installed.
■ Connect and operate the appliance only in accordance with the specifications on the rating plate. If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by customer service.
- Do not use if the power cable or appliance is damaged. If a fault occurs, pull the mains plug or switch off the mains voltage immediately.
■ To prevent hazards, the appliance may be repaired by our customer service only.
■ Never immerse the appliance or mains cord in water.
■ The plug and socket connection of the appliance must not come into contact with liquids.
■ Please note the special information on cleaning in the instructions.

Warning

Hazard due to magnetism!

The appliance contains permanent magnets which may affect electronic implants, e.g. heart pacemakers or insulin pumps. Persons with electronic implants should keep a minimum distance of 10 cm from the appliance and the water tank when removed.

Warning

Risk of suffocation!

Do not let children play with packaging material. Store small parts safely as they can be easily swallowed.

Warning

Risk of burns!

■ The milk system becomes very hot. After use, allow it to cool down first before touching it.
■ After use, surfaces such as the cup warmer may still be hot for a certain period.
■ Freshly prepared beverages are very hot. Leave to cool a little if necessary.

Warning

Risk of injury!

■ Improper use of this appliance may result in injury.
■ Do not reach into the grinding unit.

Warning

Fire hazard!

■ The appliance will become hot.
■ Never operate the appliance in a cupboard.

Environmental protection

Saving energy

■ If the appliance is not being used, switch it off.
■ Set the interval for automatic switch-off to the smallest value.
If possible, do not interrupt coffee or milk froth dispensing. Stopping a process prematurely results in higher energy consumption and the drip tray fills up more quickly.
■ Descale the appliance regularly to avoid a build-up of limescale. Limescale residue results in higher energy consumption.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Important: If the appliance is not descaled and cleaned in time, it will be locked. The display shows "Device locked"
If the appliance is locked, it can only be operated again once the service programme has been carried out.

■ Caution! For each of the service programmes, use Calc'nClean descaling and cleaning agents as described in the instructions and observe the (relevant) safety information.

■ Do not drink the liquids.

■ Never use citric acid, vinegar or any vinegar-based agents to descale the appliance.

For cleaning and descaling, only use the tablets intended for such purposes. They have been specially developed for this appliance, and new stocks can be ordered through customer service. → "Accessories" on page 11

■ Never interrupt the service programme.

■ Prior to starting a service programme, remove, clean and re-insert the brewing unit. Clean the milk frother.
