Do not fill water into the coffee maker • while the appliance is switched on or still hot. Switch off the coffee maker first and let it cool down for five minutes.

Caution• . The appliance becomes very hot. Risk of scalding through escaping steam. Never open the cover while the appliance is running.

This appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with limited physical, sensory or intellectual faculties or who lack experience and/or knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or have received instructions on how to use the appliance.

Please make sure that children do not have an opportunity to play with the appliance.

- the appliance or power cable is damaged - a defect is suspected after a fall or similar occurrence

In these cases, have the appliance repaired.

- The appliance must be decalcified regularly.

- The glass pot is not suitable for use in microwave ovens.

- Pull out the power plug:

- if faults arise during operation - each time before cleaning and servicing - after use.

- Never immerse the appliance in water.

We will not accept any liability for damages resulting from misuse, non-compliance with the decalcification instructions, or unqualified repairs. Guarantee services are also excluded in such cases.

The appliance is not intended for commercial use.

If the cable of the appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer's authorised service agent or a qualified technician. Incorrect repairs may result in considerable hazards for the user.

Start-up

Prior to initial use or when the coffee maker has not been operated over a long period, fill the appliance with the maximum amount of water but without coffee powder, let the water boil and finally rinse the filter insert and pot with hot water.

When inserting the filter insert make sure the recess faces towards the water tank. Press the filter insert slightly downwards and swivel the handle towards the front to lock the filter into place.

Brewing coffee

Fill cold water into the water tank. The water level indicator shows the quantity of fresh water required to brew the desired number of cups à 125 ml coffee. The scale on the glass coffee pot also indicates the quantity of fresh water and does not apply to the quantity of brewed coffee.

Before adding the coffee powder, make sure that the filter insert is correctly fitted and that the handle is locked.

⚠️ If the filter insert is not locked, coffee may overflow!

Fold a paper filter size 4 (1 x 4) along the fold lines and insert it into the filter insert. The paper filter is not allowed to stick out beyond the rim of the filter insert and must therefore be pressed slightly into place by hand.

Fill in the required quantity of coffee powder. Depending on your personal taste, use approximately 5 to 7 grams of medium ground coffee per cup. If the coffee powder is ground too finely, the filter may overflow.

Close and press down the cover until it locks into place.

Then connect the power plug to a shock-

proof socket and activate the switch. The indicator light will come on when the brewing process starts.

After the brewing process is completed, the glass pot can be removed. The drip-stop prevents coffee residues from dripping from the filter.

The hot plate automatically keeps the brewed coffee at serving temperature until the coffee maker is switched off.

Keep in mind that the coffee will lose its aroma if it is kept warm too long.

Used paper filters with their coffee powder contents are bio-degradable. To remove, open the cover, hold the filter insert by the handle and pull up and out.

Cleaning

Disconnect the appliance from the mains and allow it to cool down.

Never immerse the appliance in water; simply wipe it over using a damp cloth with a drop of washing-up liquid and then rub dry.

Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.

Clean the filter insert and glass pot under running water or in the dishwasher.

Decalcifying

Calcium deposits result in energy losses and impair the service life of the appliance. The appliance will switch off prematurely if the calcium deposits are too severe. It is then very difficult to remove the deposits. We therefore recommend you to decalcify the appliance regularly, but at the latest when the brewing time increases significantly or there is more noise during the brewing process.

The following values are offered for guidance and are based on daily use in a household.

Hardness range	Hardness	Decalcification
1 soft 0-7° dH	every 6 months
2 medium >7	14° dH every	3 months
3 hard >14-21°	dH every 6 weeks
4 very hard >21°	dH every	4 weeks

1^ dH corresponds to approximately 0.18 mmol/l Ca and Mg ions

You can obtain details of the water hardness range in your residential area from your water works or community offices.

We recommend using durgol® express. This decalcifier is highly effective, protects the material and does not require any additional exposure time.

You can obtain this decalcifier where you bought the appliance or directly from select dealers. Alternatively you can order it directly from petra-electric.

Insert the paper filter and place the pot into the coffee maker. Fill 1-2 cups of durgol® express into the water tank, fill up the tank with tap water to the max. mark and switch on the appliance. Then let a tank full of tap water run through to rinse the appliance.

Never use vinegar or vinegar essence, as the materials in the appliance could be damaged.

When using decalcifiers based on citric acid precipitates may form during decalcification and seal the calcium deposits or block the pipelines in the appliance. Furthermore, decalcification with citric acid is too slow and therefore complete decalcification cannot be guaranteed.

Important. Damage which results from non-compliance with the decalcification instructions is not covered by the guarantee.
