USE WITH BATTERY

Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. A) CAUTION

• Always switch off the appliance before installing or removing of the battery cartridge.
• Hold the battery holder and the battery cartridge firmly when installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to hold the battery holder and the battery cartridge firmly may cause them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the appliance and battery cartridge and a personal injury. To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the battery holder while sliding the button (Fig. A‑1) on the front of the cartridge. To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator (Fig. A‑2) on the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely. CAUTION
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red indicator (Fig. A‑2) cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the battery holder, causing injury to you or someone around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly. Battery protection system The appliance is equipped with a battery protection system. This system automatically cuts off power to the appliance to extend battery life. The appliance will automatically stop during operation if the appliance and/or battery are placed under one of the following conditions:
• Overheated: If the appliance does not start, the battery is overheated. In this situation, let the battery cool before pressing the power switch again.
• Low battery voltage: The remaining battery capacity is too low and the appliance will not operate. In this situation, remove and recharge the battery. NOTE
• The overheat protection works only with a battery cartridge with a star mark (Fig. B‑4). Connecting the battery holder (Fig. E) Plug the battery holder into the DC power socket on the appliance. NOTE
• Do not plug both the AC power cord and battery holder into the sockets on the appliance at the same time.

1. Open the water tank lid (Fig. C‑5) and pour 150 ml of

fresh cold water. Pour water until the “LIMIT” island (Fig. F‑17) just sinks. NOTE

• Do not pour in too much water, or water may run out of the overflow opening (Fig. F‑18). . Remove the filter holder (Fig. C‑8) with filter (Fig. C‑7) from the appliance, put 6.5 gram of ground coffee into the filter using the measure (Fig. C‑14), and then reinsert the filter holder in the appliance. NOTE
• Place the filter correctly in the filter holder (Fig. G‑8). Otherwise, the filter holder cannot be inserted correctly.
• Adjust the amount of ground coffee to your preference. . Place a cup on the cup rest (Fig. C‑9). . Press the power switch (Fig. C‑10). The power switch lights up and the brewing cycle begins. When the brewing cycle has ended, the appliance automatically turns off and the power switch light goes off. NOTE
• To stop brewing, press the power switch (Fig. C‑10). The appliance turns off and the power switch light goes off.
• With AC operation, a brewing cycle takes approx. 3 minutes, while with battery operation, it takes approx. 7 minutes (the cycle time varies depending on the amount of water, temperature, and other conditions). The longer the brewing cycle, the stronger the coffee.

CAUTION To reduce the risk of scalding, do not remove the filter holder (Fig. C‑8) during the brewing cycle. When the brewing section marked with (Fig. H) is steaming, do not touch it. Steam builds up under the filter holder (Fig. C‑8). Do not touch the bottom plate (Fig. C‑11) during the brewing cycle. After the brewing cycle completes, wait at least 5 minutes before removing the filter holder. If another brewing cycle is to be started, wait at least 5 minutes before pouring in cold water. Otherwise, steam and hot water could be released and scalding may result. CLEANING Proper maintenance will ensure years of service for your appliance. Clean the appliance after every use to maintain quality coffee flavor. WARNING
