Before Using For The First Time; Making Coffee - Brandt CAF-1408 A Manual De Instrucciones

• If the cable for this appliance is
damaged, contact an authorised
Technical Assistance Service for it to be
replaced.
• Do not leave the appliance exposed to
the elements (rain, sun, ice, etc.).
• Do not use or let any part of the
appliance come into contact or near hot
surfaces (kitchen gas or electric hobs or
ovens).
• Do not use detergents or abrasive
sponges to clean the appliance.
• Do not touch the hot surfaces. Use the
handles.
• Do not let the cable come into contact
with the hot parts of the appliance.
• Do not allow all the liquid to evaporate.
Do not heat the jug when empty.
• Do not use a jug which is broken or has
a loose or weakened handle. Replace
it at any sign of damage. A crack or
a chip in the glass may cause the jug
to break or to contaminate the liquid it
contains with glass particles.
• Do not clean the jug with any kind of
abrasive scourer or cleaners which may
scratch and weaken the glass.
• The jug is designed for use with this
appliance only. Do not place the jug on
or near to a hot surface (heater, stove,
cooking surface, hot oven, microwave
oven, etc.)
• Avoid handling it carelessly and
knocking it.

4. BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

• Before using your coffee maker for the
first time, familiarise yourself with all the
parts. Read all the instructions carefully.
• Lift open the filter holder lid (4), take
out the filter holder (5) and clean them
together with the jug (8) and the jug lid
(7) in warm, soapy water. Rinse well, dry
them and reassemble.
• To clean the inside, operate the coffee
maker twice running without coffee. To
do this, follow the instructions in the
next section.

5. MAKING COFFEE

• Place the coffee maker onto a flat,
stable surface.
• Open the reservoir lid (1) and fill the
reservoir (2) with fresh, cold water (see
Fig. B) up to the level corresponding to
the desired number of cups of coffee.
Do not exceed the maximum level of the
reservoir.
• Open the filter holder lid (4) and place
the paper filter into the filter holder as
shown in figure C.
• Fill the paper filter with the required
amount of ground coffee and close
the filter holder lid (4). We suggest one
level tablespoonful of coffee per cup of
coffee. Once you have used the coffee
maker several times, you will be able to
adjust the amount of coffee according to
your taste.
• Place the jug (8) with its lid (7) duly in
place, onto the hot plate (6). The jug will
open the anti-drip valve when placed
correctly onto the plate; otherwise the
filtered coffee will not pass into the jug
and the filter may overflow.
• Plug the appliance in and turn the coffee
maker on by pressing the on/off switch
(3). The indicator light will come on.
The water will begin to filter through the
coffee maker, pouring the coffee into the
jug.
• Once the coffee is ready, the hot plate
(6) will keep the coffee hot by means of
the hot plate.
• Turn the coffee maker off by pressing
the on/off switch (3) and unplug the
coffee maker.
N.B.: The coffee maker is fitted with an
anti-drip system; this prevents the coffee
from dripping onto the plate (6) when the
jug is not properly in place or when it has
been removed from the appliance.
