How to make drip coffee
Please note: the first time the appliance is used, all ac-
cessories and the internal circuits must be washed through by
making at least two jugs of coffee without using pre-ground
coffee.
• Open the door at the front by pulling the handle (C) and
use the jug to pour clean cold water into the water tank (D)
(fig. 1) up to the level indicated for the number of cups of
coffee to be prepared. check the level of water in the tank
through the level window (H) (fig. 2). You are recommen-
ded to use the jug provided as a measure as the maximum
capacity of the jug and the tank are the same.
• Position the permanent filter (F) (if present) in the filter
holder (fig. 3). In versions without permanent filter, use
the paper filter (size 1x4).
• Place the pre-ground coffee in the filter using the measu-
re (B) provided and level evenly (fig. 4). See the table for
recommended quantities. Use good quality, medium pre-
ground coffee for drip coffee makers.
Recommended quantities:
no. small cups no. large cups

(*) 1 level measure = 1 tablespoon (5 g)
The quantities given in the table are indicative and should be
adapted to your personal taste and the type of coffee. never ex-
ceed the maximum quantity of 10 measures. The type of blend
has a considerable influence on the coffee you make. You should
therefore try various types of coffee to find the one best suited
to your taste.
• close the door at the front of the appliance and place the
closed jug on the plate (fig. 5).
• Press the ON/OFF button (E) (fig. 6). The light on the switch
indicates that the coffee maker is operating. coffee delive-
ry will start after a few seconds. it is completely normal for
the appliance to give off steam while the coffee is percola-
ting.
• if you leave the on/off button pressed after percolation
has finished, the plate (G) will keep the coffee at the ideal
temperature. To turn the plate off press the button again.

Please note: removing the jug before all the coffee re-
quested has been delivered does not interrupt coffee making,
but merely blocks flow into the jug. if you want to pour out a
little coffee immediately, you should do so as rapidly as possible
in order to avoid the coffee overflowing.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before maintenance or cleaning of the appliance, turn off, un-
plug from the mains socket and allow to cool.
• Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the cof-
fee maker. Just wipe with a soft damp cloth.
• Never immerse the coffee maker in water. It is an electrical
appliance.
Descaling
if the water in your area is hard, limescale builds up over time.
These deposits may affect correct operation of the appliance.
You are recommended to descale the coffee maker every 60 cof-
fee making cycles. To descale, always use special commercially
available descaling products for drip coffee makers.
1. dilute the product in the jug, following the instructions on
the descaler pack;
2. Pour the solution into the water tank;
3. Place the jug on the warming plate;
4. Press the on/off button, percolate the equivalent of one
cup then turn the appliance off;
5. Leave the solution to work for 15 minutes, then repeat
operations 4 and 5.
6. Turn the appliance on and deliver the water until the tank
is completely empty.
7. rinse by operating the appliance with water only at least 3
times (3 complete tanks of water).
failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.
