Degreasing the brew unit and
cleaning the interior
Depending on the natural oil content of
the coffee used, the brew unit can
become blocked quite quickly. It must
be degreased regularly in order to
ensure aromatic coffee and trouble-free
operation of the coffee machine.
You can run the maintenance
programme with the Miele cleaning
cartridge or with cleaning tablets for
degreasing the brew unit. The
maintenance programme lasts for
approx. 10minutes.
If you have switched on automatic
cleaning and fitted a ready-to-use
cleaning cartridge, the Degrease the
brew unit maintenance programme will
run using the cleaning cartridge.
If you have not fitted a Miele cleaning
cartridge, the following message will
appear in the display after 200portions:

 Confirm the message withOK.
This message will keep being displayed
until the brew unit has been degreased.
