Special Safety Instructions for this Device

• Place the coffee machine on a firm and flat surface. Position it so that it cannot tip over.
• Do not place the device directly next to a gas or electric cooker or any other source of heat.
• The water tank must only be filled with cold water!

WARNING:

• Never open the filter cover during the boiling process, as otherwise this may cause burns.
• The hot plate and the coffee pot become very hot. Danger of scalding!

Before Initial Use

• Remove all packaging and transportation safety devices from the device that may be present.
• Remove the pitcher.
• Open the water tank cover and pull out the filter holder at the bracket.
• Rub all of the parts with a damp cloth. This will remove any dust that may have accumulated during transport.

i NOTE:

Before making coffee for the first time, allow water to pass through the device two to three times in order to clean it.

Electrical Connection

i NOTE:

Please ensure that the device is switched off. The switch must be on „0“.

Insert the mains plug into a properly installed 230 V, 50 Hz socket with earthing contact. For information please see the type plate on the device.

Operation

• Fold open the water tank lid.
• Fill the rear water container with water. For the desired number of cups, see the water level indication at the device.

i NOTE: You can use the pot to fill the water tank.

CAUTION:

Do not overfill the tank! Do not fill it above the 12 mark.

• Observe correct fit of the filter holder when inserting it (see "Before Initial Use").
• Turn over the lower fold of the paper filter (size 1x4) and place it in the filter funnel. Then fill it with coffee powder.
• Close the lid of the water tank until it is heard to click into place.
• Place the pot on the trade.

CAUTION: ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM

Please ensure that the lid is on the pot. This activates the so-called anti-drip system.

- Your device has an anti-drip system. If the pot is removed before all of the water has passed through the filter, this prevents the coffee from dripping on to the base.

CAUTION: ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM

- If there is still water in the tank, place the pot underneath as soon as possible. Otherwise the filter might overflow.

- Turn the device on.

i NOTE:

• The control lamp in the switch lights up.
- When the tank is full, the brewing process will take approx. 10 minutes.

• When no more coffee is flowing through the filter you can remove the pot.
• Turn the device off. The control lamp goes out.
• If you would like to keep the rest of the coffee warm, the switch must remain in the „I“ position. The hotplate will keep the coffee warm until you move the switch to „0“.

i NOTE:

• The filter holder can be removed from the machine by its handle. This makes it easier to dispose of the old coffee filter, for example.
• Observe correct fit of the filter holder when inserting it (see "Before Initial Use").

WARNING:

If you would like to make another pot of coffee immediately, please turn the machine off. Allow it to cool down with the water tank open in order to prevent hot water splashing out when the machine is refilled.

Descaling

It is necessary to descale the coffee machine if the preparation time becomes considerably longer.

• Only a commercially available decalcifier on a citric acid base should be used for descaling.
• Please use the quantities stated on the pack or instruction leaflet.
  • After descaling, please boil fresh water without coffee in the machine several times (approx. 3-4 times).
• This will remove any residues from the descaling process.
