Preparing your machine for use

PLEASE NOTE:

• This appliance is intended for household use only.

• Place the appliance on a dry, flat and fixed surface

and keep it out of reach of children.

• Never use warm water, sparkling water or milk to

fill the water container.

• Never open the brew mechanism during brewing.

In “Auto Mode”, always wait for the indicator light

to move from AUTO to MANUAL before opening the

brew mechanism. In “Manual Mode”, take your

finger off the start/stop button and wait until

the machine has stopped before opening the

brew mechanism.

• For some drinks, the brew cycle includes a 10

second pause after the initial influx of water. This

pause is normal and allows the water to fully

saturate the product before brewing continues.

• If during brewing you can hear the machine running

but no drink is produced, stop the cycle by pressing

and releasing the start/stop button. Open the

brew mechanism carefully and slowly, and discard

the T-DISC. Try again with a fresh T-DISC.

• After 10 minutes of non-use, the STANDBY light

will illuminate. If you are not going to use your

machine for an extended period, turn it off using

the on/off switch.

• Braun electric appliances meet applicable safety

standards. Repairs on electric appliances (including

cord replacement) must only be carried out by

authorised Braun service centres. Faulty, unqualified

repair work may cause accidents or injury to the user.

• This machine is not suitable for use at altitudes

above 2000 metres.

Rinse the water container, fill it to “max” with fresh

cold water and place it on the machine. Check that the

water container is inserted in the slot of the back of the

machine. Connect the machine to the electrical supply

and press the on/off switch located on the back of the

machine. All the indicator lights will flash. Place a large

cup (at least 200ml) on the adjustable cup stand.

Open the brew mechanism, position the cleaning

disc on the T-DISC holder, bar code facing down.

Firmly close the brew mechanism by pressing the

clamp down until it shuts.

Wait five seconds then press and release the start/

stop button to start the machine. You will hear the

machine run for a short period to fill the internal water

heater. When the machine stops running, the STANDBY

light will illuminate.

Open the brew mechanism and close it again leaving

the cleaning disc in place. The orange HEATING light

will begin to flash. Wait about a minute until the green

AUTO light illuminates then press and release the

start/stop button. The machine will fill the cup with

water. When the machine stops running, empty the cup

and place it back on the adjustable cup stand. Repeat

this step in its entirety.

Open the brew mechanism and remove the cleaning

disc. The HEATING light will illuminate. Do not discard the

cleaning disc after use – you will need it for flushing and

descaling the appliance. Your machine is now ready to use.

IMPORTANT

Before using your Tassimo machine for the first time, you must
prepare it by following the procedure below.

Your Tassimo machine comes
