Frequently Asked Questions - KA4041/KA4042/KA4049 SEVERIN

How to use the coffee maker for the first time?

Before first use, run 2 to 3 brewing cycles with cold water only (no ground coffee). This cleans the appliance. Then follow the coffee preparation steps described in the manual.

How much ground coffee to use per cup?

For a standard cup (125 ml), use about 6 g of ground coffee, which is about 1 to 2 level teaspoons. Adjust to taste.

How to descale the coffee maker?

Mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of white vinegar with the maximum amount of water. Pour into the tank, insert an empty paper filter, and run a cycle. Repeat if necessary. Then run 2 to 3 cycles with fresh water to rinse.

Can the carafe go in the dishwasher?

Yes, the carafe and its lid are dishwasher safe. However, the appliance body and other parts must be hand washed with a damp cloth.

What to do if the coffee maker doesn't work?

First check the power outlet and switch. If the appliance does not heat, descaling may be needed. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center. Never attempt repairs yourself.

Can I use ground coffee other than filter grind?

It is recommended to use a medium filter grind. Too fine a grind could clog the filter and slow the flow. Use size 4 paper filters.

How to clean the appliance after use?

Always unplug the appliance and let it cool. Clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth and mild detergent. Never immerse the appliance in water. The carafe and lid are dishwasher safe.

Why isn't the coffee flowing properly?

This may be due to limescale buildup in the appliance. Descale it. Also check that the paper filter is not clogged and that the carafe is properly positioned to open the anti-drip system.

Is the warranty valid internationally?

The 2-year warranty is valid in the country of purchase and in countries where SEVERIN has an authorized service center. Keep the proof of purchase (receipt or invoice) for any claims.

Where can I find spare parts?

Spare parts (carafe, lid, etc.) are available from authorized SEVERIN service centers. See the list in the manual's appendix or the manufacturer's website.

Important safety instructions

• Before the appliance is used, the main body as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, it must not be used any longer: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.
• Before use, make sure that the handle of the glass carafe is properly and securely fitted. If necessary, the metal ring may be tightened by means of the screw in the handle.
• 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.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended while in use.

• The hot-plate becomes very hot during operation.

• 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.

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.
• This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• This appliance is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial applications.
• No responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with.
• In order to comply with safety regulations and to avoid hazards, repairs of electrical appliances must be carried out by qualified personnel, including the replacement of the power cord. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments. The addresses can be found in the appendix to this manual.

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 and on the glass carafe 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.125ml, while the right scale is used for smaller cups. Make sure that the indicated maximum amount of water is not exceeded.
• 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.

Making coffee

- Filling with water

Open the water container lid, fill the container with the desired quantity of water and replace the lid.

- Inserting the paper filter:

Open the swing-out filter and insert a size-4 paper filter, first folding down the perforated sides of the filter.

- Filling with ground coffee:

For each regular-sized cup (125ml), a measure of about 6g (= 1^1 / 2 - 2 teaspoons) of medium or finely ground coffee will be required. Close the swing-out filter afterwards.

- Preparing the glass carafe:

Fit the aroma protection lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance.

If correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the filter holder during the brewing cycle.

- Starting the brewing cycle:

Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off switch to switch the coffee maker on. The filtration cycle starts and the water passes through the filter.

- Removing the glass carafe:

Wait until all the water has passed through the filter before the carafe is removed from the appliance.

- Switching off the coffee maker:

The coffee may be kept warm inside the carafe by leaving it standing on the hot-plate. The plate is kept warm until the appliance is switched off. Always switch off the appliance after use and remove the plug from the wall socket.

Dscaling

• Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits) on a regular basis to warrant proper functioning.
  A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing indicate that descending of the coffee maker has become necessary.
• An excessive build-up of lime deposits is very difficult to remove, even when strong descending agents are used. It may also cause the brewing system to leak. We therefore strongly recommend descending the appliance after each thirty to forty brewing cycles. For descending, a vinegar solution may be used as follows:
• Mix 2-3 tablespoons of vinegar with the indicated maximum amount of cold water.
• Pour the descending solution into the water container, insert a paper filter into the filter holder without adding any ground coffee as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliance run through

one filtration cycle. Repeat the procedure if necessary. During descaling, ensure sufficient ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar vapours.

• To clean the appliance after descaling, let it run through 2-3 filtration cycles using clean water only.
• Do not pour descalers down enamel sinks.

Cleaning and care

• Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock do not immerse the coffee maker in water. The appliance may be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth, using a mild detergent. Wipe dry afterwards.
• Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions.
• To remove the used ground coffee, open the swing-out filter and take out the filter. Dispose of the ground coffee (as a natural substance, it may be composted). Rinse out the swing-out filter before it is replaced. Close the swing-out filter.
• The glass carafe may be cleaned with warm water after use. Wipe dry afterwards
• Both glass carafe and lid are dish-washer safe.

Disposal

Do not dispose of old or defective appliances in domestic garbage, but only through public collection points.
