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 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

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.

Press and hold both the 1-cup button and 2-cup button for 3 seconds until the 1-cup button and 2-cup button start 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.
