First steps
3 First steps
3.1 Unpacking the appliance
Remove the packaging material and the adhe-
sive strips from the appliance. Please keep the
original packaging.
The appliance has been tested in the factory
to ensure that it functions perfectly. Therefore,
the appliance may still contain traces of coffee
and water.
3.2 Setting up the appliance
Set up the appliance in a dry room.
Set up the appliance on a stable, flat and
dry surface. The surface may not be hot.
The appliance may not be placed in the
vicinity of sinks or the like.
Route the power cable so it does not lie
over edges or cannot be damaged by hot
surfaces or the hotplate.
3.3 Connecting the appliance
Only connect the appliance to an easily acces-
sible, properly installed earthed mains socket.
Full isolation from the mains is achieved by
disconnecting the mains plug.
3.4 Switching on the appli-
ance for the first time
When switching on for the first time, you
must rinse the appliance. Rinsing is done
without a filter and without coffee.
1. Connect the appliance to the mains supply.
2.
Set the Time and the Language
with the function buttons.
Confirm each selection with the "OK"
button.

4 Preparing to make
beverages
4.1 Filling with tap water
Fill the water tank only with fresh, cold tap
water. Close the filled water tank with the lid.
The markings on the water tank correspond
with the number of cups that you prepare
during a brewing process. The brewing pro-
cess will always use up all of the water in the
water tank. Therefore, fill only the quantity
of water that you require for the subsequent
brewing process.
The filled quantity of water may not exceed
the 10 cup marking as the jug will otherwise
overflow.
4.2 Using a filter
Use Melitta® filters in the size 1x4®. Fold
the filter along the stamped seam and fit the
filter in the filter insert. Push the filter down
carefully to achieve an ideal fit. The hinged
filter holder should click into place when you
close it.
After preparation, remove the filter insert
with the filter and dispose of the filter.
4.3 Filling with coffee beans
Roasted coffee beans lose their aroma after
a few days. Therefore, do not fill too many
coffee beans into the bean container. When
the bean container is full, you can prepare
coffee 2 or 3 times with the maximum water
quantity.
Attention! Extremely oily and caramel-
ised coffee beans can clog up the grinder.
Ground coffee can also damage the grinder.
