Frequently Asked Questions - PurEase KF 3120 BRAUN

How to install the water filter cartridge?

Remove the space compensator from the water tank, insert the water filter cartridge into the designated slot. Replace the compensator if you remove the cartridge. The cartridge should be replaced every two months.

How much ground coffee should I use?

We recommend 1 tablespoon or 1 scoop per cup, but you can adjust to taste. Do not exceed 10 scoops in total.

What if the coffee takes too long to brew?

This likely indicates scale buildup. Descale the coffee maker with a product compatible with aluminum or the Braun solution. Refer to the descaling section in the manual.

The anti-drip system is not working properly, what to do?

Make sure the carafe is properly centered under the basket and the lid is in place. If the carafe is removed for more than 20 seconds, the basket may overflow.

How to clean the coffee maker?

Turn off and unplug the appliance. The filter basket, carafe, and lid are dishwasher safe. Clean the base with a damp cloth, never immerse it.

The coffee maker does not turn on, what to check?

Check that the appliance is plugged in, the power button is pressed, and there is no power outage.

Can I use very fine ground coffee?

No, only use ground coffee for filter coffee machines. Too fine a grind can clog the filter and cause overflow.

How does the automatic shut-off work?

The appliance turns off automatically 40 minutes after the brewing cycle ends for safety and energy saving.

Why is there coffee grounds in my cup?

This can happen if the paper filter is incorrectly inserted or folded. Ensure the filter is properly opened and centered in the basket.

Can I use the carafe in the microwave?

No, never put the carafe in the microwave or on another heat source (stove, hot plate).

Vor dem Gebrauch

●Children shall not play with the appliance.

●Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children unless they are older than 8 years and supervised.

Children younger than 8 years shall be kept away from the appliance and its mains cord.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Never immerse the unit in water or other liquids.

This appliance is designed for household use only and for processing normal household quantities.

Before plugging into a socket, check whether your voltage corresponds with the voltage printed on the bottom of the appliance and that you are using an earthed socket.

Avoid touching hot surfaces, especially the keep warm plate. Never let the cord come in contact with the keep warm plate.

The keep warm plate is subject to residual heat after the appliance is switched off.

- Only use the appliance with water and for preparing coffee to avoid any damage to the appliance.

Do not put the glass carafe on other heated surfaces (such as stove plates, hot trays, etc.).

Do not use the glass carafe in the microwave.

Description

2 Keep warm plate
3 Cord/Cord storage
4 Water reservoir incl. water level indicator
5 Water reservoir cover
6 Space compensator
7 Water filter cartridge (included for certain models only)
8 Filter basket with antidrip system
9 Flip lid
10 Glass carafe

Maximum capacity: 10 cups = approx. 125 ml coffee per cup

(A) Installing the water filter cartridge

(if applicable; may be purchased separately)

• Unpack the water filter cartridge (7).
• Remove the space compensator (6) from the water reservoir.
• Insert the water filter cartridge. Be certain to keep the space compensator as it must be installed in the water reservoir whenever the water filter cartridge is removed.
• The water filter cartridge should be exchanged every two months.

(B) Making Coffee

Before using the coffee maker for the first time or after a long period of not using it, run the coffee maker through a complete brew cycle without ground coffee. Use a full carafe (10 cups) of fresh cold water.

• Open the water reservoir cover (5).
• When filling the water reservoir with fresh cold water, refer to the carafe height markings or the water level indicator and fill to the desired number of cups.
• Insert a paper filter (cone type # 4) in the filter basket (8).
• Add the desired amount of ground coffee, corresponding to the number of cups being brewed. We recommend using 1 tablespoon or 1 coffee scoop of ground coffee per cup, but use more or less to suit your taste.
• Close the water reservoir and place the carafe (10) including lid in its position on the keep warm plate (2).
• Plug the cord into an electrical outlet and press the On/Off button (1).
• Brewing time per cup: approximately 1 minute.

Auto Off Function

For your convenience and also additional safety, the appliance will switch off automatically 40 minutes after the brewing cycle is complete.

Antidrip system

The antidrip system halts the flow of coffee from the filter basket when the carafe is removed, so a cup can be poured before brewing is finished.

The carafe should be returned to the keep warm plate (maximum 20 seconds) to prevent the filter basket from overflowing.

For Best Results

• When using paper filters, be sure that it is completely open and fully inserted in the basket. It may help to fold and flatten the seams of the paper filter beforehand.
• Store ground coffee in a cool, dry and dark place in an airtight container.
• For the best performance from your Braun coffee maker, descale the unit regularly.

Note: The maximum amount of ground coffee the coffee maker can take is 10 coffee scoops or tablespoons.

Descaling

Frequency will depend upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the coffee maker. Descaling is indicated when the brewing time is much longer than 1 minute per cup.

You can use a commercially available decalcifying agent not affecting aluminum.

We recommend using the Braun Descaling Solution (may be purchased separately).

Note: Replace the water filter cartridge (7) with the space compensator (6) during any decalcification procedure.

• Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the decalcifying agent.
• Repeat the procedure as many times as necessary in order to reduce the brewing time per cup to a normal level.
• Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run through at least twice to clean the coffee maker.

(C) Cleaning and Maintenance

• Always turn coffee maker off and remove the plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Let the appliance cool down.
• The filter basket, carafe and lid are dishwasher safe.
• Do not use any scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffee maker.
• To clean the base never immerse the unit in water or other liquids but simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing.
