Setting up and connecting to the power supply

⚠️ Risk of electric shock!

Under no circumstances should the appliance be located close to water, in particular, close to filled sinks and other waterfilled vessels. Use the coffee machine only on a thoroughly dry surface. The proximity of water presents a risk, even when the appliance is switched off. Accordingly, always remove the plug from the mains power socket after use.

⚠ Warning in regard to property damage!

Never locate the coffee machine close to sources of heat. The appliance could be damaged.

⚠ Attention!

To avoid damage to the appliance and the location area, use the coffee machine only on a flat and heat-resistant surface.

• Remove all packaging materials from the appliance.
• Place the appliance on a dry, flat and heat-resistant surface.
• Place the thermos can ⑧ on the stand plate ⑩ in the appliance.
• Then insert the plug into a mains power socket.

Before the first use

Attention!

- NEVER fill the water tank ② with a total volume of more than 10 cups of water. NEVER fill the water tank ② with less than 2 cups of water. Otherwise, the coffee machine could be damaged. Use the scale on the water tank ②.

- Unplug the coffee machine immediately after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power ONLY when it is unplugged.

- Fill the water tank ② only with freshly drawn mains water. Using anything else could damage the appliance.

1. Using the handle integrated into the water tank lid ①, take the water tank ② out of the coffee machine and clean the water tank ② with water and some detergent. Afterwards, rinse it out with lots of clean water, such that all detergent residues are removed.

2. Clean the thermos can 8 with water and a little detergent. Afterwards, rinse it out with lots of clean water, such that all detergent residues are removed.

3. Pour water into the water tank ② up to the 8-cup mark and then place it in the coffee machine so that it is firmly seated. If you fill it with more than 8 cups water and brew it without coffee powder, the thermos can ⑧ will overflow.

4. Place the empty thermos can ⑧ on the stand plate ⑩ so that the coffee exit ⑥ is located centrally above the thermos can lid ⑦.

5. Press the On/Off switch ⑨. The integrated control lamp ⑨ glows. The brewing process starts. Wait until the brewing process is complete and the control lamp goes out.

6. Empty the thermos can ⑧.

7. Wait until the appliance has cooled down.

Subsequently, you can use the coffee machine for the brewing of ground coffee.

Filling with ground coffee

1. Open the filter holder lid with the grip ③. The filter element must be inserted.
2. Place a filter bag (size 1 x 4) with folded over sides in the filter holder.
3. Fill it with the required amount of coffee powder using the measuring spoon.

Note:

Fill it with about one levelled coffee spoon of ground coffee per cup of filter coffee. If the filter coffee should be less strong, you can reduce the amount of ground coffee per cup.

1. Close the filter holder lid.

Filling with water

Note

Use only freshly drawn mains water for preparing the coffee!

1. Take the water tank ② from the coffee machine and fill it with water as per the desired quantity of filter coffee. Orient yourself with the scale on water tank ②.

Attention!

- NEVER fill the water tank ② with a total volume of more than 10 cups of water. NEVER fill the water tank ② with less than 2 cups of water. Otherwise, the coffee machine could be damaged. Use the scale on the water tank ②.

1. Place the water tank ② on the coffee machine so that it is firmly seated.
2. Close the water tank lid ①.

Modifying the aroma

- Select the desired coffee strength on the aroma selector switch ⑤. The setting 🚙 is for strong coffee, the setting 🚙 is for medium coffee and the setting 🚙 is for mild coffee.

Switching On and Off

(i) Note:

Rinse the thermos can ⑧ with hot water from before you start the brewing process. This will help the coffee to stay hot for longer!

• Before you switch the coffee machine on, ensure that the thermos can 8 is correctly located on the stand plate 10.
• To switch the coffee machine on, press the On/Off switch ⑨. The integrated control lamp ⑨ glows.
• If you want to cancel a brewing process, press the On/Off switch ⑨. The integrated control lamp ⑨ extinguishes.
• The coffee machine switches itself off automatically upon completion of the brewing process. The control lamp ⑨ integrated in the On/Off switch ⑨ extinguishes.
• Remove the plug from the mains power socket if the coffee machine is no longer to be in use.

Note

You can briefly take the thermos can ⑧ out of the machine (for max. 30 seconds), for example, if you want to pour a coffee. Thereby, no coffee will drip from the machine.

Place the thermos can back on the stand plate 10 within 30 seconds.

Otherwise, the filter will overflow and coffee/water will drain from the filter holder 4.

Pouring coffee

To pour coffee from the thermos can ⑧ it is not necessary to completely unscrew the thermos can lid ⑦:

1. Unscrew the thermos can lid ⑦ so far that the arrow points to the symbol 🎨. With this, coffee may be poured from the can without the thermos lid ⑦ falling off.

2. After pouring, close the thermos can lid ⑦ immediately. If you do not, the coffee will cool more quickly.

Note

Should you wish to keep the coffee warm in the thermos can ⑧ for an extended period, remove the thermos can ⑧ from the coffee maker when the brewing process is finished. When the thermos can ⑧ is standing in the coffee maker the thermos can lid ⑦, due to the brewing mechanism, is pressed down. As soon as the brewing process is complete, hot air escapes through the thermos can lid ⑦. The coffee cools faster. When the thermos can ⑧ is removed from the coffee maker, the thermos can lid ⑦ closes itself automatically. The coffee stays hot for longer.

Note

Wait at least 3 minutes before you start another brewing process.

Cleaning

To obtain an optimal taste result after every brewing process you should clean the coffee machine after every use.

- Unplug the power cable from the mains power socket.

⚠️ Risk of electric shock!

Before you clean the coffee maker you MUST remove the plug from the mains power socket. Under no circumstances may the appliance be immersed in water or held under running water during cleaning.

Risk of burns!

Always wait until the coffee maker has cooled down before cleaning it. This avoids the potential risk of being burnt.

Attention!

Do not use household detergents or sharp/pointed objects to remove soiling. . These could damage the appliance.

• Wipe the housing of the coffee machine and the thermos can ⑧ with a soft cloth lightly moistened with a soapy solution. At the same time remove any deposits that may have settled in the thermos can ⑧.
• After every brewing process remove the filter bag from the filter holder 4.
• Rinse both of them under running water.
• Clean the measuring spoon in mild soapy water and rinse it with clean water.

Scale removal

The mineral content (hardness) in the water causes, over a period of time, a calcification of the coffee machine. This calcification impairs the appliance in its function and diminishes the quality of the brewed filter coffee.

(i) Note:

Enquire at your local waterworks about the hardness level of your mains water. The need for decalcification comes early in hard water areas, somewhat later in soft water areas. Use a decalcifier designed for household appliances and pay heed to the usage instructions.

1. Switch the coffee machine off and allow it to cool down completely.
2. Place the scale removal product in the water tank ②.
3. Fill it with the maximum permitted amount of water for descaling (see the descaler instructions). However, do not pour in more water than to the 8-cup marking in the water tank ②.
4. Place the thermos can ⑧ on the stand plate ⑩.
5. Press the On/Off switch ⑨.
6. Wait until the brewing process is complete and the control lamp goes out.
7. Unplug the power cable from the mains power socket.
8. Carefully rinse the thermos can ⑧ with mains water.
9. Take the water tank ② off and rinse it out with clean water.
10. To finish, complete two brewing processes using only mains water, as described in the section "Before the first usage".

When completed, you can continue to use the coffee machine.
