2 Re fit the tank. Make sure that it is correctly located and apply light pressure if  
necessary to ensure the valve at the bottom of the tank connects with the  
bottom of the machine.  
3 Note it is normal for water to remain in the compartment under the tank. This  
can be dried using a sponge.  
Never use a damaged machine. Get it checked or repaired: see ‘service’.  
Never put the machine in water or let the cord or plug get wet – you could get

9 Fit the pod(s), then push the pod filter holder into the coffee maker. The holder  
will be magnetically held in place during operation.  
The wires in the cord are coloured as follows:  
Green and Yellow = Earth,

important  
It is important that the correct pod is used with the correct pod filter as the  
coffee maker senses what drink is required and as a result doses the right  
amount of water at the correct pressure to produce the perfect drink.

hint  
Note:  
For non-rewireable plugs the fuse cover MUST be refitted when replacing the  
fuse. If the fuse cover is lost then the plug must not be used until a replacement  
can be obtained. The correct fuse cover is identified by colour and a  
replacement may be obtained from your Kenwood Authorised Repairer (see  
Service).  
For optimum coffee we recommend priming your machine every time it is  
switched on. Fit the espresso pod filter into the pod filter holder (without a pod)  
and dispense one cup of water.  
The coffee outlet nozzle can be raised or lowered to fit closer to the cup or mug  
on the cup stand. Simply pull down or push up .

If a non-rewireable plug is cut off it must be DESTROYED IMMEDIATELY. An  
electric shock hazard may arise if an unwanted non-rewireable plug is  
inadvertently inserted into a 13A socket outlet.

Never attempt to remove the pod filter holder with force. Always wait a few  
seconds after making coffee as it will be held in place until it is safe to remove.

to glow again continuously. Wait a few seconds then pull out the pod filter  
holder and fit a new coffee pod or change the pod filter if an alternative type of  
coffee is desired. Continue as above.  
Note: when making an espresso the coffee maker will make a pumping noise  
which will cease part way through the operation but will resume again before all  
the drink is dispensed. This ensures that the best coffee flavour is extracted.  
After each coffee is dispensed, excess water from the brewing process will be  
discharged into the drip tray.

Press the Steam button for three seconds. This will activate a descaling  
program and the 3 indicator lights (On/Off, OK and Steam) will flash in  
succession indicating the descaling cycle is in operation. (During this time the  
pump will operate 30 seconds On followed by 2 minutes Off). Allow the entire  
descaling agent to flow out from the steam/hot water nozzle. The machine will  
bleep when the tank is empty.  
When the tank is empty return the function lever to the middle ( ) position. (The  
indicator lights will continue to flash).  
Rinse the tank and fill with fresh water.  
Turn the function lever to the lower steam position ( ) and allow all the fresh  
water to flow out from the steam/hot water nozzle. (During this cycle the pump  
will operate continuously until the tank has emptied and the coffee maker will  
bleep.)  
to produce steam to froth milk after having brewed  
coffee  
1 Ensure that the pod filter holder with a pod holder is fitted to the coffee maker.  
2 Press the steam button and its light will flash (see Fig. D page ii). When the  
steam indicator light glows continuously the unit is ready to produce steam  
(see Fig. E page ii).  
3 Place an empty jug under the steam/hot water nozzle and move the function  
lever to the lower steam position ( ) to remove excess water from the system.  
Return the function lever to the middle ( ) position and discard the water.
