Making Coffee; Warming The System And The Cups - Miele CVA 620 Operating Instructions Manual

Making coffee

Important: the water piping must be rinsed
through every day and the machine cleaned
thoroughly before the first drink of coffee is
prepared. This will take place automatically if the
Rinsing programme is set to "On" and the
machine is cold. Hot water will run out of both
spouts into the drip tray once the machine has
heated up. The following two messages will
appear in succession in the display:
If the "Rinsing" programme was set to "Off" press
the rinse and pre-warming button to rinse out the
system (see "Cleaning and care").
Before making the very first drink, the system
should be rinsed through several times to remove
any residual water still in the machine from the
quality control tests.
To prevent water from running into the
drip tray always place an empty cup
under the coffee spouts before making
the first cup of coffee. Otherwise the drip tray will
need to be emptied regularly.

Warming the system and the cups

The system and the cups should always be
pre-warmed to allow the flavour to develop and be
retained. The aroma of espresso does not react well
to cold, so the machine has a pre-warming function.
^ Turn the selector clockwise to the In Operation
position (with or without lighting).
If the selector is already in this position with the
message "Standby. . ." shown in the display, the
machine is in energy-saving mode. Press ENTER to
switch it into operation.
