Check that all accessories are complete and the unit is not damaged. Add clean water up to maximum level to brew several times without coffee powder according to the steps below, and then discard the water. Wash the detachable parts thoroughly with warm water.

coffee needs a level spoon of coffee powder, but you may adjust according to personal taste. Close the funnel holder, a click sound will be heard when the funnel holder is closed completely. Insert the carafe on warming plate horizontally. Plug the power cord into the outlet. Pressing the switch down, the indicator will be illuminated. The appliance will begin working. Note: during brewing process you may remove the carafe to serve for duration of not exceeding 30 seconds, and the coffee maker can stop dripping automatically. If the serve time exceeds 30 seconds the coffee will overflow the funnel.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

USING YOUR COFFEE MAKER

CAUTION: Always unplug the product from electrical outlet and allow the warming plate to cool completely before cleaning it. Never immerse the unit or power cord into water or any other liquid for cleaning

Open the top lid and fill the water tank with cold drinking water. The water level should not exceed MAX level as indicated on water gauge. Put the funnel into funnel holder, then place the filter in the funnel, and make sure it is assembled correctly. Add coffee powder into filter. Usually a cup of

Clean all detachable parts after each use in hot, sudsy water. Wipe the product’s exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove stains. Water droplets may buildup in the area above the funnel and drip onto the product base during brewing. To control the dripping, wipe off the

area with a clean, dry cloth after each use of the product. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the warming plate. Never use abrasive cleaner to clean it. Replace all parts and keep for next use. REMOVING MINERAL DEPOSITS To keep your coffee maker operating efficiently, periodically you should clean away the mineral deposits left by the water according to the water quality in your area and the use frequency. We recommend decalcifying your coffee maker as follows, using a solution of white vinegar and cold water. A solution of two tablespoons (30ml) white vinegar in one carafe of cold water works best.

Fill the tank with the vinegar solution to the maximum level as indicated on water gauge. Insert glass carafe onto the warming plate. Make ensure filter (without coffee powder) and funnel are assembled in place. Switch on the appliance and allow it to “brew” de-scaling solution. After “brew” one-cup solution, switch off the appliance. Leave the solution stay for 15 minutes and repeat step 3-5. Switch on the appliance and run off the solution until the water tank is completely empty. Rinse by operating the appliance with water at least 3 times. Note: do not reuse coffee powder since this will greatly reduce the coffee’ flavor. Reheating coffee is not recommended as coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing. Note: clean the coffee maker when over-extraction causes oiliness. Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee are due to the extraction of oil from the coffee powder. Note: oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used.

DISPOSAL OF OLD ELECTRICAL

APPLIANCES The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

HINTS FOR GREAT-TASTING

COFFEE Note: a clean coffee maker is essential for making great-tasting coffee. Regularly clean the coffee maker as specified in the “CARE AND CLEANING” section. Always use fresh, cold water in the coffee maker. Note: store unused coffee powder in a cool, dry place. After opening a package of coffee powder, reseal it tightly and store it in a refrigerator to maintain its freshness. Note: for an optimum coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and finely grind them just before brewing.
