PHILIPS EP0824/00 Series 800 Coffee Maker

PHILIPS-EP0824-00-Series-800-Coffee-Maker-PRODUCT

Product Information

This machine is equipped with safety features to ensure safe usage. It is intended for normal household use only and should not be used in work environments such as staff kitchens or offices. The machine should be placed on a flat and stable surface and kept in an upright position, even during transport. It should not be placed near hot sources of heat.

Caramelized or flavored coffee beans should not be used with this machine. Cleaning should be done with a soft cloth dampened with water, avoiding the use of scouring pads or abrasive cleaning agents. Regular descaling is necessary to maintain proper functionality and prevent warranty invalidation. Regular cleaning and maintenance are also recommended for optimal quality and taste of your coffee. If your machine has a classic milk frother, caution should be taken to avoid burns. Small jets of water may come out of the hot water spout before dispensing, and the frother should not be touched with bare hands. After frothing milk, the frother should be cleaned by dispensing hot water into a container and washing the external part with lukewarm water.

If your machine has LatteGo, caution should be taken to avoid burns from milk and steam jets during dispensing. LatteGo should be installed correctly according to the user manual instructions before selecting a milk-based coffee drink. Only water and milk should be poured into LatteGo, and it should be removed during descaling and when dispensing hot water. All parts of LatteGo are dishwasher-safe. For machines with AquaClean water filter, regular cleaning of the water tank is recommended. Certain groups of people, such as those with weakened immune systems or babies, are advised to fill the water tank with purified or boiled tap water even with the filter installed. The AquaClean water filter is treated with silver for hygienic reasons.

AquaClean water filter

Read this important information carefully before you use the AquaClean water filter and save it for future reference.

Warning

The AquaClean water filter is only designed for use with municipally treated tap water (which is constantly controlled and safe to drink according to legal regulations) and with water from private supplies which has been approved as safe to drink. If an instruction is received from the authorities that municipal water must be boiled, the filtered water must also be boiled. When the instruction to boil water is no longer in force, the entire coffee machine must be cleaned and a new cartridge inserted.
Clean the water tank regularly.
For certain groups of people (e.g. people with weakened immune systems and babies) it is generally recommended to fill the water tank with purified water or boiled tap water, even when the AquaClean water filter is installed.
For hygienic reasons, the material of the AquaClean water filter is subjected to a special treatment with silver. A small quantity of silver, which is harmless to health, may end up in the filtered water. This is in compliance with the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommendations for drinking water.
If you suffer from kidney disease, are a dialysis patient and/or follow a sodium-restricted diet, please note that during the filtration process, the sodium content may be increased slightly. We advise you to consult your doctor first before using the filtered water.
When you descale the coffee machine, always remove the AquaClean water filter from the water tank. Then thoroughly clean the whole water tank and replace the AquaClean water filter.
Philips does not accept any responsibility or liability if the above recommendations for using and replacing the AquaClean water filter are not followed.

Caution

Store replacement AquaClean water filters in a cool and dry place in their original, sealed packaging.
As water is a foodstuff, the water in the water tank must be used up within 1 to 2 days.
If you have not used your coffee machine for a prolonged period (e.g. a holiday, a period over 3 months from installation, or when a new filter is required), perform the procedure described in ‘Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)’ in the user manual.
