Miele FREESTANDING COFFEE MACHINE CM 5000 - Manual (Page 14)

The quality of the water used plays an
important part in the overall quality of
the coffee.
The water tank should be emptied
and filled with fresh, cold tap water.
Hot or warm water, or other liquids
could damage the coffee system.
Do not use mineral water. Mineral
water will cause lime scale deposits
to build up in the machine, possibly
damaging it.
^ Open the lid on the left hand side of
the coffee system a. Pull the water
tank up and out using the handle b.
^ Fill the water tank with fresh, cold tap
water to the "Max." mark.
Be sure the area under the water
tank is clean and free of
obstructions. If the water tank is not
seated correctly the drainage valve
will not be sealed. Clean if
necessary.
^ Replace the water tank. Make sure
the tank fits correctly onto the notch
at the top of the housing.
^ Close the lid.
