been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull
the power cord, it must no longer be
used: even invisible damage may have
adverse effects on the operational safety
of the appliance.
∙ During operation, the coffee maker must
be placed on a level, non-slip surface,
impervious to splashes and stains.
∙ Do not allow the appliance or its power
cord to touch hot surfaces or to come
into contact with any heat sources.
∙ To prevent the danger of hot water or
steam being emitted, always switch off
the coffee maker and allow sufficient
time for the appliance to cool down
before it is opened or any accessories or
attachments are removed.
∙ Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall
socket
- in case of any malfunction,
- after use, and also
- before cleaning the appliance.
∙ When removing the plug from the wall
socket, never pull on the power cord;
always grip the plug itself.
∙ Do not allow the power cord to hang
free; the cord must be kept well away
from hot parts of the appliance.

Before using for the first time
Before making coffee for the first time,
let the appliance go through two or
three filtration cycles using the indicated
maximum amount of cold water, but without
using ground coffee. This should also be
done if the appliance has not been used
for an extended period of time, and after
descaling.
General information
∙ A measuring scale on the water
container facilitates filling the container
with the correct amount of clean water.
With a dual-scale, the left scale is used
for regular-sized cups of approx.125 ml,
while the right scale is used for smaller
cups. Make sure that the indicated
maximum amount of water is not
exceeded.
∙ Caution: Do not attempt to open
the swing-out filter while brewing is
in progress: there is a danger of
scalding.
∙ 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.
