Introduction

With SENSEO®, you can enjoy a perfect cup of coffee with a delicious crema layer whenever you feel like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you’re always sure of a pure and round taste. SENSEO® combines a unique brewing method from Philips with convenient coffee pods from Moccona,

available in different blends of fine roast and

ground coffee.Together they make sure you only

get the very best in flavour and aroma from the

coffee.

The Moccona coffee in convenient SENSEO® coffee pods and Philips’ unique new SENSEO® brewing system are perfectly matched to ensure that the best taste and aroma are extracted from the coffee.

To optimise the taste of the coffee, keep the following aspects in mind:

Fresh water

Use fresh water every day. If you have not used the

coffee machine for three days, you have to flush

it with fresh water before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).

Fresh coffee pods

Use the SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed by Moccona for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full, round taste. Moccona SENSEO® coffee pods stay fresh longer if you close the package with the keep-fresh seal after use or if you store them in a storage container.

A clean machine

Clean and descale the Philips SENSEO® coffee machine regularly (see chapters ‘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 section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).

Important

Read these instructions for use carefully before you use the machine and save them for future reference.

,Check if the voltage indicated on the bottom of the machine corresponds to the local mains voltage before you connect the machine.

,If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

,To prevent unexpected contact with hot water, always make sure the lid of the SENSEO® machine is properly locked before you start using the machine.

,Never put normal ground coffee or use torn pods in the SENSEO® machine, as this causes it to become blocked.

,Do not use the machine in combination with a transformer, as this could cause hazardous situations.

,Put the machine on a flat, stable surface outside the reach of children. Never let the machine operate unattended.

,This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

,Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

,Do not use the machine at altitudes higher than 2200 metres above sea level.

,The machine does not work at temperatures below 10°C.

,Flush the coffee machine with fresh water before you use it for the first time

(see chapter ‘Preparing the machine for use’).

This causes the boiler to fill with water, which is essential for the machine to work properly.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards

regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled

properly and in accordance with the instructions in this instruction manual, the appliance is safe to use

according to scientific evidence available today.

Preparing the machine for use

You cannot brew coffee if you have not flushed the SENSEO\ coffee machine first!

The flushing cycle causes the boiler to fill with

water. After this, the coffee machine is ready for use.

Flush the machine in the following way:

1Remove the water reservoir (Fig. 2).

2Fill the water reservoir with cold water up to the MAX indication and put it back onto the machine. (Fig. 3)

3Move the lever upwards to release the lid (Fig. 4).

4Open the lid (Fig. 5).

5Put the 1-cup pod holder ° or the 2-cup pod holder °°in the machine without pod(s). (Fig. 6)

6Close 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.

7Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.

8Put a bowl (with a capacity of at least 1500ml) under the coffee spout to collect the water. (Fig. 8)

9Press the on/off button I and subsequently press the 1-cup button ° and the 2-cup button °° briefly at the same time. (Fig. 9)

,The boiler 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.

Now your Philips SENSEO® coffee machine is ready for use.

Brewing coffee

1Fill the water reservoir with cold water up to the MAX indication and put it back onto the machine. (Fig. 3)

Never pour milk, coffee, hot water or carbonated water into the water reservoir.

-° MIN: minimum amount of water required to brew 1 cup of SENSEO® coffee.

-°° MIN: minimum amount of water required to brew 2 cups of SENSEO® coffee.

-A full reservoir allows you to make SENSEO® coffee a number of times (up to 5 cups).This makes it unnecessary to fill the water reservoir each time you want to make a cup of coffee.

2Press the on/off button I. (Fig. 10)

The indicator light blinks while the water is heating up. Heating up takes approx. 90 seconds.

,The coffee machine is ready for use when the indicator light burns continuously.

3Move the lever upwards to release the lid (Fig. 11).

4Open the lid.

5Place the appropriate pod holder in the machine.

Note: Make sure the pod holder is clean and the sieve in the centre is not clogged, e.g. with loose coffee grounds.

,If you want to make one cup of SENSEO® coffee, use 1 coffee pod in combination with the 1-cup pod holder ° and the 1-cup button °. (Fig. 12)

,If you want to make two cups of SENSEO® coffee, use 2 coffee pods in combination with the deeper 2-cup pod holder °° and the 2-cup button °°. (Fig. 13)

6Place the SENSEO® coffee pod(s) properly in the centre of the pod holder, with the convex side pointing downwards.

Note: Use SENSEO® coffee pods from Moccona specially designed for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full and round taste.

,Place 1 SENSEO® coffee pod in the 1-cup pod holder °. (Fig. 14)

,Place 2 SENSEO® coffee pods in the 2-cup pod holder °°. (Fig. 15)

Note: Make sure the coffee in the pod(s) is evenly distributed and press the pod(s) lightly into the pod holder.

Note: Never put normal ground coffee or use torn pods in the SENSEO® machine, as this causes it to become blocked.

7Close the lid and lock the lever (Fig. 7). Always make sure the lid is properly locked. Push the lever down until it snaps home with a click.

Never start brewing with the lid open.The lid must be properly closed.

8Place one cup or two cups under the spout openings (Fig. 16).

The cups you use should have a capacity of at least 150ml. Do not use cups that are too large, as they cause the coffee to get cold more quickly.
