STARTING UP

Choose a suitable place to set up your coffee maker; it should be heat resistant, flat and not slippery and in the immediate vicinity of a contact protected socket.

Before using for the first time

To remove any impurities or manufacturing residues, let fresh water run through the coffee maker several times until the water collected in the jug is clear and clean. Proceed as follows:

• Raise the water tank lid (1)
• Fill the water tank (2) with cold fresh tap water up to gauge 12 (Max.) on the water level indicator (3).
• Close the water tank lid (1), place the glass jug (9) with lid in place, on the keep warm plate (5) and close the filter unit (7) (without using a filter paper).
• IMPORTANT: When making coffee the glass jug must never be put under the filter unit without its lid as otherwise the non-drip valve on the filter unit will remain closed and the filter would run over.
• Connect the coffee maker and switch on.
  Empty the glass jug.
• Wait about 5 minutes before refilling with fresh water so the appliance can cool down

Cleaning the parts of your coffee maker

Later, when you have rinsed the appliance through thoroughly, clean the individual pieces

• Disconnect the mains plug (8)
  Wait till the appliance has cooled completely
• Remove the glass jug
• Raise the filter unit lid, lift the filter unit a little, tilt slightly to the side and remove.
• Wash the filter unit and glass jug in warm soapy water. These parts are dishwasher proof and can also be cleaned in the dish washer
  Dry the parts well and reassemble.

When the filter coffee maker has not been used for sometime clean it in the same way.

Making coffee

• Fill the water tank with sufficient fresh cold water for the number of cups wanted (at least 2 maximum 12 cups).
• Raise the filter unit lid and insert a standard coffee filter, size 1x4
  Put about 6 grams finely ground coffee per cup in the filter
• Close the filter unit lid.
  The glass jug must be in place on the keep-warm plate.
  Plug in to the mains.
• Then switch on the coffee maker with the On/OFF switch (4).
  IMPORTANT: Never take the filter unit or the glass jug away while the water is running!
• When the coffee has finished running through the glass jug may be removed. The filter has a non drip valve to prevent coffee dribbling out when the jug is not in place.
• As long as the coffee maker is switched on, the glass jug with the remaining coffee can be kept warm on the keep-warm plate
• Switch the coffee maker off when the keep-warm function is no longer needed.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Don't forget to always disconnect the plug and allow the appliance to cool before cleaning or maintenance!

Cleaning

• Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaners!
• Never immerse the appliance in water!
• Wipe the outer surfaces with a damp cloth.
• Raise the filter unit lid, lift a little, tilt to the side and remove.
• Clean the filter unit as well as the glass jug with lid thoroughly in warm soapy water. Dry well and replace. These parts and the water tank lid are dishwasher proof and may be cleaned in the dishwasher

Descalng

Furring deposits that would impair the functioning of the appliance may form in time. Descale the coffee maker regularly to remove these using a proprietary descending agent for coffee machines and following the maker's instructions.

Take care that none of the descending agent comes into contact with the keepwarm plate..
- Fill the water with fresh cold water up to the 12 marking (Max.) together with the recommended amount of descending agent.
- Place a paper filter in the filter unit to catch any particles that are flushed out. Close the filter unit and place the glass jug on the keep-warm plate.
- Do not switch on. Leave the appliance to stand for at least 30 minutes but no longer than an hour to allow the descending agent to work.
- Start the coffee making cycle.
- As soon as the cycle is finished, remove the glass jug and discard the solvent. Do not pour the discarded solution into an enameled sink. Do not use the same solution a second time.
Repeat the process if necessary.
- Traces of the descending agent can spoil the taste of the coffee. Consequently the coffee maker must be rinsed thoroughly by letting fresh water run through several times until every trace of the descending agent has been eliminated.
To finish, thoroughly clean the glass jug and filter unit

Subject to change without prior notice.
