The new way of enjoying coffee
With the Senseo you can now enjoy a perfect cup of coffee - topped
with a rich layer of crema - whenever you feel like it. Each cup is freshly
brewed, so you're always sure of that pure, smooth taste.The unique
brewing system of the Senseo from Philips in combination with the
special coffee pads from Douwe Egberts make sure you get only the
very best in flavour and aroma from freshly roasted coffee.
The Douwe Egberts coffee in convenient coffee pads and Philips'
unique new brewing system are perfectly matched to ensure that the
best taste and aroma are extracted from the coffee.
To optimise the taste of the coffee, you should keep the following
aspects in mind:
Fresh water
Use fresh water every day. If you have not used the appliance for some
time, rinse the water reservoir, fill it with fresh water and flush the
appliance before you use it again (see 'Preparing the appliance for
use').
Fresh coffee pads
The Douwe Egberts Senseo coffee pads will stay fresh longer if you
close the package by means of the keep-fresh seal after use or if you
store them in a storage container.
A clean appliance
Clean and descale your Philips Senseo coffee maker regularly (see
'Cleaning' and 'Descaling').
Remove used coffee pads after brewing. If a used pad has been left in
the coffee maker and you have not used the appliance for some time,
flush the appliance before you use it again (see 'Preparing the appliance
for use').
Preparing the appliance for use
◗ Check whether the mains voltage indicated on the appliance
corresponds with the mains voltage in your home before you
connect the appliance.
◗ Do not use the appliance if the plug, the cord or the appliance
itself is damaged.
◗ Put the appliance in a frost-free place, on a flat, stable surface, out
of the reach of children.
◗ Do not use the appliance at altitudes higher than 1000 m above
sea level.
◗ The appliance does not work at temperatures below 10cC/42cF.

Solving problem s
If you have a problem, you may find the solution in the table below. If
the table does not provide the solution to your problem or if you have
a question, see the chapter 'Information & service'.
Solution
Problem
Make sure that:
The coffee is not strong enough.
- the coffee pad(s) has/have been placed level in the holder.When you are using
two coffee pads on top of each other, make sure that the convex sides of both
pads are pointing downwards and press the pads slightly down in the pad holder.
- you have used the correct number of pads and have pressed the right dosing
button. Use 1 pad in combination with the 1-cup pad holder and the ° button.
Use 2 pads in combination with the 2-cup pad holder and the °° button.
- a fresh pad has been used.
- the coffee is evenly distributed in the coffee pad.
If you prefer a more robust flavour, try the Dark Roast blend.
Check if you have used the right number of pads and if you have pressed the
right dosing button. Use 1 pad in combination with the ° button and 2 pads in
combination with the °° button.
The coffee is too strong.
If you prefer a milder flavour, try the Mild Roast blend.
Descale the appliance (see 'Descaling').
The machine pours less water into
the cup(s) than it used to.
Make sure that:
Water is leaking from the
appliance.
- the two levers are in their most outward position.
- the water reservoir has not been filled beyond the MAX indication.
- the pad holder is not blocked. Deblock the small opening in the middle of the
pad holder by rinsing it under the tap. If necessary, you can use a washing-up
brush or a pin to deblock the opening.
- the pad has been placed evenly in the pad holder.
The presence of some drops of water on the worktop is perfectly normal.This is
caused by the filling and placing of the water reservoir.
In all other cases: contact the Philips Customer Care Centre.
If the pilot light continues to blink slowly for more than 5 minutes, contact the
Philips Customer Care Centre.
The pilot light continues to blink
slowly.
Make sure that:
The pilot light continues to blink
rapidly.
