Start-up

Prior to the first use and after the device has not been operated for an extended period of time, carry out a boiling process with fresh water without coffee grounds. To do so, fill the tank (4) to the 8-cup mark, as otherwise the jug (7) can overflow.

Setting the current time

After connecting the mains plug to a socket, Set and 12:00 appear in the display (6). Set the current time by pressing the buttons h and min. Confirm the time by pressing the button ⏻. The Set in the display (6) will blink until the time is confirmed.

Note: The time must be reset after a power failure or after the mains plug has been unplugged.

You can also reset the time by pressing the h and min buttons at the same time, the Set blinks in the display (6) and you can set the time by pressing the h and min buttons. Confirm the time by pressing the Ⓤ button.

Programming the switch-on time

The device's automatic switch-on starts the brewing process automatically at the desired time. The switch-on time can be programmed up to 24 hours in advance. It is displayed when you press the ⏻ button for about 3 seconds, the ⏻ appears in the display (6) and flashes Set . Set the time you want it to switch on by pressing the buttons h and min. Confirm the time by pressing the ⏻ button.

This activates the automatic switch-on time.

Note: Confirm the switch-on time within 5 seconds, or otherwise the settings will not be saved.

Note: The switch-on time must be reset after a power failure or after the mains plug has been unplugged.

Coffee preparation

Open the water tank (4). To do so, swing open the lid (3) upward. Only pour cold water into the tank (4). The water level indicator (5) is for the amount of fresh water that is needed to brew the desired number of cups per 125 ml of coffee.

Open the filter (2) by swinging open the filter lid (1) upward. Place the paper filter of the 1 x 4 size into the filter (2), but fold the stamped edge before doing so. The paper filter should not protrude over the edge of the filter, therefore you must push it down slightly with your hand.

Fill with the required amount of ground coffee. Depending on your personal taste, use approx. 5–7 g of medium-fine ground coffee per cup. If it is ground too finely, the filter (2) may overflow.

Then close the filter lid (1). It will audibly click into place.

Automatic switch-on

If the preparation should start automatically at the programmed switch-on time, press down on the Ⓤ button for about 3 seconds, ⏱ appears in the display (6) and flashes Set. You can check the programmed switch-on time and change it by pressing the h and min buttons. Confirm the time by pressing the ⏱ button.

You can deactivate the automatic switch-on at any time by pressing the ⏻ button.

Immediate start

Press the ⏻ button if you want your coffee to be prepared immediately. You can switch it off at any time by pressing the ⏻ button.

When the brewing cycle has finished the glass jug (7) may be removed. A drip-stop valve prevents coffee from dripping onto the warming plate.

Keep-warm function

In order to keep the finished brewed coffee at a serving temperature, your device is equipped with a keep-warm function. After the preparation is complete, the keep-warm function activates automatically and the symbol appears in the display. The keep-warm time is 40 minutes, and then the device switches itself off.

You can deactivate the keep-warm function at any time by pressing the ⏻ button.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning

Unplug the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down.

Do not immerse the appliance in water, but instead just use a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid to clean its exterior.

Do not use harsh and abrasive cleaning agents.

The filter (2) and glass jug (7) are cleaned under running water.

Calcification

Scale deposits result in an extended brewing time and lower quality coffee. Limescale deposits also lead to energy losses and impair the service life of the appliance.

The appliance switches off prematurely if the layer of limescale is too thick. The limescale is then very difficult to remove. You should therefore descale regularly, at the latest however in the event of significantly longer brewing times or increased noise.

The following data are guide values that refer to a daily use in the household.

Hardness range Hardness Descaling intervals
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 Monthly

1° dH corresponds to about 0.18 mmol/l Ca and Mg ions

You can inquire at your local water company or government to find out the hardness range in your neighbourhood.

Descaling agent

We recommend using Cromargol®. This product is highly effective, food safe and is neutral in taste and smell. Thanks to its special care formula with six high-quality and protective additives, Cromargol® is also very gentle on materials.

You can usually purchase Cromargol® from the store where you purchased your appliance or from your chosen dealer.

You can also use a commercially available descaling agent that is suitable for filter coffee machines.

Do not use vinegar or vinegar concentrate, as this can damage materials in the appliance.
When using descalers based on citric acids, precipitates could form during descaling that seal the limescale layer or clog the lines in the appliance. Descaling with citric acids also takes too long, and therefore complete descaling cannot be guaranteed.
⚠ Damage caused by the use of an unsuitable descaling agent or through non-compliance with the descaling instructions is not covered by our warranty claim.
⚠️ Handle the descaling agent carefully to ensure that no furniture or clothing is damaged.

Descaling

• Insert the paper filter and place the jug (7) in the machine. Any more substantial amounts of limescale residue collect on the filter paper and thus prevent the outlet valve from clogging.
• Fill the water tank (4) with one portion (100 ml) of Cromargol®, fill with tap water up to the 8 Cups marker and switch the device on.
• Measure out and use other descaling agents according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  ■ After the descaling solution has passed through, empty the jug (7), switch off the device and allow to cool for 5 minutes.

Important: Then to rinse, fill the tank (4) to the 8-cup mark with fresh tap water and allow this to run through the machine. Then rinse the filter (2) and jug (7) under running water.

Note: In the event of heavy calcification, repeat the descaling process.
