scalding or other injury, always keep the handle
in the closed / down position while machine is
operating. Do not reach under the spout or remove
the drip tray while appliance is operating.

• There is a danger of scalding when evaporating the
residual water (the steam temperature can be as
high as 248°F / 120°C).
CAUTION

expired.
• Store pods in a suitable location.
• It is recommended to rinse the appliance five
times before first use to prime machine and
once after your last beverage of the day to
rinse the system. Read the instructions under
"Daily Maintenance" on page 10.

with the operating manual to prevent hygiene risks.
• Only use cleaning / descaling agents that are
suitable for the appliance.
• Carefully read the user instructions about the
cleaning and descaling agents and comply with the
safety instructions.
Short cord instructions
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks
of entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer
detachable power-supply cords or extensions may be
used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer power-
supply or extension cord is used, 1) The marked electrical
rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance, 2) If the appliance is a grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounded type 3-wire cord,
and 3) the longer cord should be arranged so it will not
drape over the counter top or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.
Information on Energy–Saving mode and Power Off
The appliance returns to Energy–Saving mode if it is
unused for more than 15 minutes (factory setting). After
30 minutes, the machine automatically powers off. The
appliance uses considerably less energy in this mode. For
example, it uses less than 0.5 W/h (the standard operating
amount of energy used).
CAUTION
CAUTION: There are four sharp needles that puncture
the Verismo™ System pods inside the pod opening.
To avoid risk of injury, do not put your fingers in the
pod opening.
