Care And Maintenance - Russell Hobbs Attentiv Manual

ANTI DRIP
The anti drip lever closes a valve to prevent any drips splashing onto the warming plate when you remove the carafe.
• Moving the lever to the left will close the valve and the anti drip icon J will be displayed.
• Moving the lever to the right will open the valve and the icon will go out.
• If you attempt to brew coffee when the lever is in the closed position, your coffee maker will sound an alert tone and the
icon will flash until you open the valve.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning
1. Unplug the appliance and let it completely cool down.
2. Clean the exterior surfaces with a slightly damp cloth and then dry them thoroughly.
3. Remove the filter and filter holder and empty out the coffee grounds. Wash under running water and dry thoroughly.
4. Wipe the filter holder compartment with kitchen paper.
5. The bottom cap of the cold brew filter can be removed to assist in cleaning. Twist it clockwise to unlock and remove.
Twist it counterclockwise to lock.
Descaling
After approximately 60 cycles, the cleaning c icon will pulse on and off indicating that the unit should be cleaned/descaled.
This is a warning and will not affect coffee making. You can temporarily cancel the warning by tapping the cancel Bicon, but
to reset the cycle count, you need to run the cleaning function. We recommend descaling your coffee maker regularly to
maintain performance.
Never use a descaling product based on mineral acids such as sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sulphamic acid and acetic
acid (e.g. vinegar). These descalers may damage the machine. Use a descaling product recommended for appliances with
plastic parts.
Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
• Descale your product regularly depending on your water's lime content and frequency of use.
• Use a proprietary descaling product and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
1. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and prepare the descaling solution. Add it to the water tank (not exceeding the
10-15 markings), and place the carafe onto the warming plate.
2. Tap the settings icon.
Tap the cleaning c icon. The icon will light up.
3.
4. Press the select/confirm knob G to start the cleaning cycle.
5. Your coffee maker will stop and start during the cleaning process. This is normal. When the water tank is empty, the cycle
will stop.
6. Discard the water in the carafe.
7. After descaling, rinse your coffee maker several times by brewing water with no coffee. This will remove any descaler
residue.
• To cancel the cleaning cycle before it has ended normally, touch and hold the cancel Bicon for 1 second.
