General information
∙ A measuring scale on the water
container and on the glass carafe
facilitates filling the container with the
correct amount of clean water. The
scale refers to regular-sized cups of
approx.125 ml.
∙ Do not exceed the indicated max.
number of cups.
∙ If several consecutive brewing cycles
are required, switch off the coffee maker
after each cycle and let the appliance
cool down for approx. 5 minutes.
∙ Important note: When filling the
appliance with fresh water shortly after
a brewing cycle is completed, there is
a danger of scalding from hot water
or steam escaping through the water
outlet.
Making coffee
∙ Filling with water:
Open the lid and pour in the desired
amount of cold water.
∙ Fitting the filter insert:
Fit the filter insert into the filter holder so
that the grip tab on the filter insert engages
in the recess on the water container.
∙ I nserting the paper filter:
Insert a 1x4-sized paper filter into the filter
insert. First, fold down the perforated sides
of the filter.
∙ F illing with ground coffee:
For each regular-sized cup (125 ml), a
measure of about 6 g (= 1½ - 2 teaspoons)
of medium ground coffee will be required.
Close the lid.
∙ P reparing the glass carafe:
Close the jug lid and place the jug in
12
position in the appliance. During the
brewing process, the jug lid opens the drip
stop in the swing-out filter.
∙ S tarting the brewing cycle:
Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet
and use the On/Off switch to turn the coffee
maker on. The filtration cycle starts and
the water passes through the filter.
∙ R emoving the glass carafe:
Wait until all the water has passed through
the filter before the carafe is removed from
the appliance.
∙ K eeping the coffee warm:
The coffee may be kept warm inside the
carafe by leaving it standing on the hot-
plate. The plate is kept hot for around 35
minutes after brewing is complete.
∙ I nterrupting the brewing/keeping-
warm cycle:
To interrupt the brewing cycle, or if the
keeping-warm function is not needed, use
the On/Off switch to turn the appliance off.
∙ S witching off the coffee maker:
Once brewing/keeping-warm is complete,
remove the plug from the wall socket.
Descaling
∙ Depending on the water quality (lime
content) in your area as well as the
frequency of use, all thermal household
appliances using hot water need
descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits)
on a regular basis to warrant proper
functioning.
∙ Any warranty claim will be null and
void if the appliance malfunctions
because of insufficient descaling.
∙ A lengthening of the brewing time and
increased noise during brewing indicate
