Fill up the water reservoir with fresh cold tap water.
Place the water reservoir back onto the machine.
Place a bowl under the coffee spout.
Make sure that a pod holder, without pod(s), is in place.
Close the lid and lock the lever.
Put the plugin an earthed wall socket.
To start flushing, press the 1-cup button and the 2-cup button simultaneously.
During the flushing cycle, cold water comes out of the coffee spout.
When the flushing cycle is finished, the machine switches off.

Caution: If you do not flush the machine before first use, your first coffee cup may overflow with cold water.

Brewing coffee

Fill up the water reservoir with fresh cold tap water.
Open the lid.
To brew one cup of Senseo coffee, place the 1-cup pod holder with one coffee pod in the machine. To brew two cups, place the 2-cup pod holder with two coffee pods in the machine.
Place the pod(s) properly in the center of the pod holder, with the convex side pointing downwards. Press the pod(s) lightly into the pod holder.
Close the lid and lock the lever.
Place one cup or two cups under the spout openings.
Use the Intensity Select slide to select the recipe of your choice:
– Select the right position to brew a classic Senseo.
– Select the left position to brew an intense Senseo.
Press the 1-cup button to brew one cup of coffee or press the 2-cup button to brew two cups of coffee.

Direct Start function
The Direct Start function allows you to switch on your coffee machine and brew coffee with one touch of a button. When you press the 1-cup button or the 2-cup button, this button starts flashing, the machine starts heating up, and then starts to brew coffee. When the machine has finished brewing, it switches off automatically to save energy.
Fresh cold water
Use fresh cold water every day. If you have not used the machine for 1 day, you have to flush it with fresh cold water before you use it again. To flush the machine, fill the water reservoir with fresh cold water, place 2 cups under the spout, and brew coffee without a coffee pod twice in a row.

Cleaning

You can clean the outside of the machine with a damp soft cloth.
Remove the coffee spout. You can disassemble the coffee spout for a more thorough cleaning.
To prevent clogging, clean the pod holders regularly with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a washing-up brush.
You can clean all detachable parts with hot water and some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher.
Note: Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents, or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the machine.

Descaling the Senseo
When the 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash simultaneously before and after you have brewed a cup of coffee, you have to descale the machine. The descaling procedure consists of 4 cycles. Follow the steps below to perform the descaling procedure:
Note: Please keep in mind that you always press simultaneously both the 1-cup and 2-cup button while performing the descaling procedure. This is because if you only press one button, the machine switches itself off and you have to redo the entire descaling procedure.

Preparing before descaling

Pour 1 liter of tap water in a measuring jug.
Mix half a bottle of Senseo descaler with 1 liter of water in the measuring jug.
Fill the water reservoir up to the MAX indication with the descaler mixture and place the water reservoir back onto the machine.
Place the 1-cup pod holder with a used coffee pod or a thin descaling filter in the machine.
Close the lid and lock the lever.
Place an empty bowl under the coffee spout.
Start the first descaling cycle
Press and hold both the 1-cup button and 2-cup button for 3 seconds until the 1-cup button and 2-cup button starts flashing simultaneously.
The 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash simultaneously to indicate that the descaling cycle is in progress. During the descaling cycle, the descaling solution comes out of the machine at intervals.
As soon as the water tank is empty, the 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash quickly. Empty the bowl in the sink and place it back under the coffee spout.
Pour the remainder of the descaling mixture in the water reservoir and place the water reservoir back onto the machine. The 1-cup button and the 2-cup button light up continuously.
Press simultaneously the 1-cup button and 2-cup button to start flushing the remainder of the mixture through the machine.
The remainder of the descaling mixture comes out of the machine at intervals. The 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash simultaneously during this process.
As soon as the water tank is empty, the 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash quickly again.
Empty the bowl in the sink.
Start the second descaling cycle
Repeat steps 1 to 3 of the section ‚Preparing before descaling‘ with the other half of the bottle of the Senseo descaler. After placing back a full water container, the 1-cup button, and 2-cup button light up continuously.

Place an empty bowl under the coffee spout.
Press simultaneously the 1-cup button and 2-cup button to start the second descaling cycle.
The 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash simultaneously to indicate that the second descaling cycle is in progress. During the descaling cycle, the descaling solution comes out of the machine at intervals.
As soon as the water tank is empty, the 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash quickly. Empty the bowl in the sink and place it back under the coffee spout.
Repeat steps 10 to 14 of the section ‚Start the first descaling cycle‘ with the remainder of the descaling mixture.
Remove the used coffee pod or descaling filter.
Start the first rinsing cycle

Press simultaneously the 1-cup button and 2-cup button to start the first rinsing cycle.
The 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash simultaneously to indicate that the first rinsing cycle is in progress. During the rinsing cycle, water comes out of the machine at intervals.
Once the first rinsing cycle has been completed, the 1-cup button and 2-cup button flash quickly.
Empty the bowl in the sink.
Start the second rinsing cycle
Repeat steps 23 to 27 of the section ‚Start the first rinsing cycle‘ one more time.
As soon as the second rinsing cycle is completed, the lights of the 1-cup button and 2-cup button go out and the machine switches off
