Preparation 1. Only pour cold water into the water tank (3). Depending on the fill level in the water tank (3), the corresponding start buttons (6–9) light up. You can remove this in order to easily fill the water tank (3). Note: The WMF COUP AromaOne filter coffee machine has an intelligent water capacity display. Depending on the fill level in the water tank (3), the relevant start buttons (6–9) light up white. If the relevant start button (6–9) does not light up white, there is too little water in the water tank (3) and you cannot start the desired brewing process. Fill the water tank (3) up to the MAX marker. 2. Open the filter lid by pressing the opening button (1). Fold the stamped edge on a size 2 paper filter and then insert it into the filter insert (5). The paper filter should not protrude over the edge of the filter, therefore you must push it down slightly with your hand. Note: Instead of using a paper filter (size 2) you can use the permanent filter that is available as an accessory. 3. Fill with the required amount of ground coffee. Depending on your personal taste, use approx. 5–7 g of medium-fine ground coffee per cup. If it is ground too finely, the filter can overflow. 4. Close the filter lid. It will audibly click into place. Note: When preparing coffee directly into a cup, we recommend that you warm the cup first. Briefly rinse the cup in hot water before starting the brewing process. This keeps the brewed coffee hot for longer.

With the WMF AromaOne filter coffee machine you can brew coffee directly into your cup or in the Aroma glass jug (4). ▪▪ Prepare the coffee machine as described above and place a cup or the Aroma glass jug (4) in the appliance. ▪▪ Insert the mains plug into the socket and press the On/Off button (5). ▪▪ Once the start buttons (6–9) light up you can begin the brewing process. 19

▪▪ Press the appropriate start button (6–9) depending on the desired coffee quantity; the preparation process begins:

1 cup of coffee (6) 2 cups of coffee (7) 3 cups of coffee (8) 4 cups of coffee (9) ▪▪ After the brewing cycle, the start button goes out, the appliance switches off automatically and you can remove the cup or the Aroma glass jug (4). A dripstop valve effectively prevents coffee from dripping. Note: You can cancel the brewing cycle at any time by pressing the On/Off (5) button. In this case, leave the cup or the Aroma glass jug (4) in the appliance until the remaining coffee in the filter has flowed through.

WMF Aroma Perfection

If you would like to prepare a stronger aromatic coffee, you can activate the aroma function WMF Aroma Perfection for the respective brewing cycle. To activate the function, press the appropriate start button for the brewing cycle (6–9) a second time. The start button (6–9) flashes briefly three times to confirm your selection and the preparation begins. Note: If you wait longer than approximately 2 seconds before pressing the start button for a second time, a normal brewing cycle starts.

Cleaning Unplug the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down. Do not immerse the appliance in water, but instead just use a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid to clean its exterior. Do not use any sharp and abrasive cleaning agents. Clean the filter insert (5), Aroma glass jug (4) and water tank (3) under running water.

Perform a rinse cycle to clean the appliance if the anti-limescale programme has been out of operation or not been used for a long period of time. Also perform a rinse cycle if you notice that the cup fill quantities vary a lot. ▪▪ Connect the mains plug to an earthed wall socket and press the On/Off button (5) to switch the appliance on. ▪▪ Fill the water tank (3) up to the MAX marker. Note: The rinse cycle can only be started if there is enough water in the water tank (3) for 4 cups; the start buttons (6–9) must light up. ▪▪ Make sure that no filter paper is inserted and that there is no coffee powder in the filter. ▪▪ Insert the Aroma glass jug (4) inside the appliance. ▪▪ To start the rinse cycle, press buttons (6) and (7) at the same time; the On/Off button (5) lights up white. ▪▪ Once the rinse cycle is complete, the appliance turns itself off automatically. ▪▪ Empty the Aroma glass jug (4) and water tank (3) and rinse them and the filter insert (5) thoroughly. 20

Scaling indicator Scale deposits result in an extended brewing time and lower quality coffee. Limescale deposits also lead to energy losses and impair the service life of the appliance. The automatic scaling indicator determines the time for the next descaling cycle. Depending on the coffee consumption, the On/Off button (5) will flash blue/ white to prompt you to descale the appliance after 4 to 6 weeks.

Descaling - Anti-limescale program

Descaling agent We recommend using Cromargol®. This product is highly effective, food safe and is neutral in taste and smell. Thanks to its special care formula with six highquality and protective additives, Cromargol® is also very gentle on materials. You can usually purchase Cromargol® from the store where you purchased your appliance or from your chosen dealer. You can also use a commercially available descaling agent that is suitable for filter coffee machines. Do not use vinegar or vinegar concentrate, as this can damage materials in the appliance. When using descalers based on citric acids, precipitates could form during descaling that seal the limescale layer or clog the lines in the appliance. Descaling with citric acids also takes too long, and therefore complete descaling cannot be guaranteed. Damage caused by the use of an unsuitable descaling agent or through noncompliance with the descaling instructions is not covered by our warranty claim. Handle the descaling agent carefully to ensure that no furniture or clothing is damaged.

Your coffee machine has an automatic descaling programme. Note: Once the descaling programme has started you must not interrupt it. This is for the safety of all users. It prevents coffee from being brewed accidentally while the descaling solution has not yet been fully rinsed away. In case of emergency, you can interrupt the descaling programme by pressing the On/Off button (5). In this case you should rinse out the water tank (3) and then perform a rinse cycle (see “Rinse cycle” section). ▪▪ Connect the mains plug to an earthed wall socket and press the On/Off button (5) to switch the appliance on. ▪▪ Insert the paper filter and place the Aroma glass jug (4) in the machine. Any more substantial amounts of limescale residue collect on the filter paper and thus prevent the outlet valve from clogging. ▪▪ Fill the water tank (3) with one portion (100 ml) of Cromargol® and fill with tap water up to the MAX marker. Note: The descaling programme can only be started if there is enough water in the water tank (3) for 4 cups; the start buttons (6–9) must light up. ▪▪ Dose other descaling agents according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

▪▪ To start the descaling programme, press buttons

(8) and (9) at the same time; the On/Off button (5) lights up blue during the descaling programme. ▪▪ The descaling programme stops automatically after approx. 35 minutes and the appliance switches off automatically. Note: The appliance will switch on and off several times during the descaling process. ▪▪ Empty the water tank (3) and the Aroma glass jug (4). Rinse the filter insert (2), water tank (3) and Aroma glass jug (4) thoroughly with fresh tap water. ▪▪ Important: Now perform another rinse cycle (see the “Rinse cycle” section) with fresh tap water.

▪▪ This product is supplied with a 13 A plug conforming to BS 1363 fitted to the mains lead. If the plug is unsuitable for your socket outlets or needs to be replaced, please note the following. If the plug is a non-rewireable one, cut it from the mains lead and immediately dispose of it. Never insert it into a socket outlet as there is a very great risk of an electric shock. ▪▪ The replacement of the plug at the mains lead has to be done according to the following instructions: Warning - This appliance must be earthed Important: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: green/yellow Earth blue Neutral Live brown As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: ⋅⋅ the wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol , or coloured green or green and yellow, ⋅⋅ the wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked the letter N or coloured black, ⋅⋅ the wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. ▪▪ If a 13 A (BS 1363) plug is used it must be fitted with a 13 A fuse conforming to BS 1362 and be ASTA approved. If any other type of plug is used, the appliance must be protected by a 10 A fuse either in the plug or adapter or at the distribution board. If in doubt - consult a qualified electrician. ▪▪ Never use the plug without closing the fuse cover.
