cool, dark place, but not in the refrigerator.

3. Do not store beans for long time in the appliance to preserve the aroma of

4. Use only fresh water.

5. Coffee tastes best when it‘s freshly brewed. If coffee is kept warm too long,

it can become bitter.

6. The lid can remain closed when pouring coffee from the pot.

Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de23 PRIOR TO PREPARING COFFEE FOR THE FIRST TIME

1. Remove all packaging materials and transport safeguards. Keep packaging

materials away from children– danger of suffocation!

2. Clean the glass coffee pot, the water tank and bean container, the filter, as

described in the chapter, “Cleaning and Care”.

3. Wipe off the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth.

4. Fill the water tank to the MAX marking with tap water. Ensure that there are

no beans in the bean container.

5. Close the lid of the glass coffee pot and place it on the warming plate.

6. Plug the mains plug of the appliance into an electrical outlet (220–240 V ~

7. Turn the control dial to “Coffee Powder”, press “EIN/AUS” and wait until

the procedure is ended.

8. Switch off the appliance by placing the control dial on “Stop”.

9. Pour this water out.

10. Clean the glass coffee pot.

Before brewing coffee for the first time, please run one or two brewing cycles without coffee powder, to remove any residues from the manufacturing process. We also recommend running one brewing cycle without coffee powder, if the appliance has not been in use for an extended period. BREWING COFFEE

1. Open the lid of the coffee maker.

2. Remove the water tank/bean container:

3. Check whether the filter is inserted in the bean container.

4. Fill the water tank with as much fresh, clean water required for the number

of cups of coffee you want to make. You can use the glass coffee pot for this; marks specifying the number of cups are also on the glass coffee pot. Water Important: Never make coffee if the cover of the chamber in the lid is not attached. Coffee residues flying about could get into the interior of the appliance and cause damage. Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de24 for at least 1 cup must be filled into the water tank, the maximum quantity is 4 cups (600 ml). Ensure that you do not overfill the water tank.

5. The quantity of water filled in is always slightly higher than the actual quan-

tity of coffee, because the coffee powder absorbs a little water.

6. Fill the coffee beans into the bean container (max. 35 g). Usually a cup or

two cups of coffee needs three spoons of coffee beans, three cups of coffee needs five spoons of coffee beans, and four cups of coffee needs six spoons of coffee beans.

7. Note that the appliance does not detect that there are no beans in the con-

8. Do not overfill the bean container, this can damage the grinder. Do not

exceed the black MAX marking at the inside of the filter.

9. Alternatively add the desired amount of coffee powder into the filter, to

taste, per cup, 5-7 g (approx. 1 measuring spoon, max. 35 g) coffee powder ground medium fine. Coffee that is ground too fine can clog the pores in the filter, which can cause the coffee maker to overflow.

10. Caution: Always put the coffee beans or the coffee powder into the filter first,

only fill with water after this has been done.

11. Carefully re-insert the water tank/bean container in the appliance.

12. Check whether coffee beans or coffee powder have gotten into the water

tank, if this is the case remove coffee beans or coffee powder to prevent clogging of the water tank.

13. Close the lid of the coffee maker.

NOTE: The appliance will not work unless the top lid is closed well in position.

14. Place the glass coffee pot with the lid closed on the warming plate.

15. Plug the mains plug of the appliance into an electrical outlet (220–240 V ~

16. Select the desired operating mode with the control dial:

Fine (Fein): If you prefer finely ground beans. The appliance grinds the beans and then brews the coffee. Coarse (Grob): If you prefer coarsely ground beans. The appliance grinds the beans and then brews the coffee. Coffee powder (Pulver): If you want to prepare coffee from coffee beans.

17. Start the grinding and brewing process by pressing the “EIN/AUS” button.

Press the “Stop” button to end the brewing process prematurely.

18. Note: The appliance is operated via a timer. If you open the lid before the

grinding and brewing process has finished, the process will be aborted and Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de25 cannot be continued. This means that you may have to replace the water and beans to obtain an optimal coffee result.

19. If you’d like to select another operating mode after pressing “EIN/AUS”,

open and close the lid of the device briefly.

20. You can remove the pot at any time during the brewing process. The drip

stop prevents residual coffee from dripping out of the filter. Put the pot back under the filter within 30 seconds, so that the filter does not overflow.

21. The warming plate remains switched on as long as the coffee maker is

switched on, in order to keep the coffee remaining in the coffee pot warm. After 40 minutes the appliance automatically switches off. If you do not want the warming function, turn the control dial to “Stop”.

22. After pouring out all of the coffee and emptying the pot completely, do not

place the empty coffee pot on the hot warming plate.

23. Remove the filter and dispose of the coffee grounds.

24. Then clean the appliance.

25. Note: If the appliance aborts the brewing process, the appliance must be

descaled. Additional instructions are provided in the section “Descaling”. The appliance is very hot during and after operation!

Before cleaning, always turn off the appliance and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning it. Clean the appliance after every brewing process, particularly if you have used coffee beans.

1. Do not immerse the appliance and power cord in water or other liquids or

wash them in the dishwasher.

2. Open the lid of the appliance and remove the filter. Dispose of the coffee

3. Condensation can collect above the filter. After brewing coffee, wipe off the

bottom of the lid with a dry cloth.

4. Remove the chamber on the lid and clean it under flowing water. Thoroughly

dry the chamber before re-inserting it. Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de26 DESCALING

1. Regular descaling allows the coffee maker to operate more efficiently, pro-

longs the service life and reduces energy consumption.

2. Use a commercially available descaling product, following the instructions

3. Fill the water tank to the MAX marking with the descaling solution.

4. Alternatively you can also use citric acid instead. Add 25 to 50 g of citric

acid to one litre of water.

5. Place the glass coffee pot on the warming plate.

6. Then turn the control dial to “Pulver”, press “EIN/AUS” and allow approx.

one-third of the water quantity to run through.

7. Switch off the appliance by turning the control dial to “Stop” and let the

descaling solution soak in work for 15 to 30 minutes. If there is heavy scal- ing, you can also leave the solution in the appliance overnight.

5. Wipe off the housing and the warming plate with a damp cloth and a little

dishwashing detergent. Do not use any abrasive scouring agents, steel wool, metallic objects, disinfectants or hot cleaning agents, since they can dam- age the appliance.

6. You can clean the glass coffee pot, its lid, the water tank/bean container,

and the filter in water with a little dishwashing detergent added.

7. The removable parts such as carafe, lid and filter can be cleaned in warm

soapy water or in the dishwasher (this may cause some discoloration, which will, however, not affect the performance of the coffee maker). We recommend cleaning by hand.

8. The appliance must be completely dry before you use it again.
