Automatic cleaning and descaling Risk of damage from spilled cleaning and descaling solution. Sensitive surfaces and/or natural floors can suffer damage. One way to catch the cleaning and descaling solution is to place the maintenance container under the main dispenser before switching off the machine. Clear up any spillages of cleaning and descaling solution. When handling a descaling cartridge which has already been filled with water, ensure that the descaling solution does not come into contact with sensitive surfaces. The coffee machine features automatic maintenance programs for cleaning the milk pipework and brew unit, and for descaling the machine. For this, the Miele Cleaning and Descaling Cartridges must be inserted into the coffee machine. If both types of maintenance program are due to run on the same day, automatic cleaning will always be performed before automatic descaling (total time: approx. 35 minutes). You can set the time for starting cleaning and descaling via the Maintenance Timer. The coffee machine will automatically determine the days when to carry out automatic descaling based on the usage pattern. During automatic cleaning, the milk pipework gets cleaned and/or the brew unit gets degreased. The coffee machine also determines the cleaning-solution concentration and the cleaning-program type for automatic cleaning based on the number and types of drinks made. If you do not make any drinks, the automatic maintenance programs will not be started. In order to run the automatic cleaning programs, a solution is prepared by mixing water with the cleaning agent. This solution is then pumped through the coffee-machine pipework. After the defined holding time, all the solution is rinsed out of the pipework and the machine can then be used as normal for making drinks. During automatic cleaning and descaling, you will hear various noises (e.g., rinsing noises) at frequent intervals even though the machine is switched off. What to ensure before and during automatic maintenance programs The coffee machine must be ready to use and the following conditions must be met: - Ready-to-use cleaning and descaling cartridges are inserted. - The coffee machine must not be disconnected from the power supply during the automatic maintenance programs. - The drip tray, brew unit, and central spout are inserted. 83
