Filter coffee maker with heat-retaining carafe

Dear Customer,

Before using the appliance, read the following instructions carefully and keep this manual for future reference. The appliance must only be used by those familiar with the instructions below.

Important safety instructions

Intended use

• The appliance must only be used for making coffee from roasted and ground coffee beans.
• Any use other than that described in these instructions (misuse) must be considered improper and may lead to personal injury or material damage.

• This appliance is intended for domestic or similar applications, such as

• in staff kitchens in shops, offices and other similar working environments,

• in agricultural working environments,
• by customers in hotels, motels etc. and similar accommodation,
• in bed-and breakfast type environments.

- Do not leave the appliance unattended while connected.

Danger to certain categories of persons

There is an increased risk of injury for children and for people with reduced capabilities:

• This appliance may be used by children (at least 8 years of age) and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, provided they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance and fully understand all dangers and safety precautions involved.
  • Children must not be permitted to carry out any cleaning or maintenance work on the appliance unless they are supervised and at least 8 years of age.
• The appliance and its power cord must be kept well away from children under 8 at all times.
  • Children must not be permitted to play with the appliance.
• Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from children – these materials are a potential source of danger, e.g. of suffocation.

Risk of electric shock

The device is powered by electricity, and so there is always a risk of electric shock. The following precautions are therefore to be taken:

- Every time the appliance is used, the main body including the power cord as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, or if excessive force has been used to pull the power cord, it must no longer be used: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance.

- The appliance should only be connected to a socket installed in accordance with the regulations. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating label.

• Always remove the plug from the wall socket

- after use,

- in case of any malfunction,

- before cleaning the appliance.

- When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull on the power cord; always grip the plug itself.

- Do not touch the plug with wet hands.

- Do not clean the appliance with liquids or immerse it; do not clean under running tap water.

Danger of burns and scalding

The appliance heats up water and keeps it hot. The exterior surfaces, the bottom of the carafe and the base become hot during use, and will retain some heat even afterwards. There is thus a danger of burns or scalding.

• Do not touch those components during use: after use, allow them to cool down first.
• Do not open the swing-out filter during use.
  • Always allow the appliance to cool down for about 5 minutes after use and before opening the swing-out filter or filling with fresh water.

Lack of hygiene

Lack of hygiene may result in germs forming inside the appliance:

• Clean the appliance thoroughly before using it for the first time.
• Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely.
• The filter insert and carafe should be cleaned on a daily basis.
• Do not leave any residual water in the container.
• The appliance must be descaled at regular intervals.
  • Detailed information on cleaning the appliance can be found in the section Cleaning and care.

Danger of damage to the unit

Incorrect handling of the appliance can cause damage:

• Always place the unit on a dry, level surface that is water- and heat-resistant, and unaffected by contact with the rubber feet.
• Do not operate the appliance below a hanging cupboard or similar object; there is a risk that escaping steam may be trapped underneath.
• Do not let the power cord hang free.
• Do not kink or pinch the power cord. Keep both the cord and the appliance itself well away from heat sources (eg hot-plates, gas flames).
• Use only cold tap water to fill the container.

In case of a defective appliance

A defective appliance can cause material damage and injury:

• Check the appliance for damage before every use. Do not operate if the appliance shows any sign of damage.
• In the event that you detect damage, please contact our customer service department by phone or email (see appendix).
• Repairs to this appliance or its power cord must only be carried out by our customer service.

Before using for the first time

• Unpack the appliance completely and remove all packaging materials and stickers.
• Clean the carafe and filter insert as described in the section Cleaning and care.
• Before making coffee for the first time, let the appliance go through two or three filtration cycles using the indicated maximum amount of cold water, but without using ground coffee.
• This should also be done if the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, and after descaling.

Automatic switch-off

To save energy, the appliance will switch off automatically 5 minutes after the brewing cycle is complete.

Power-cord storage compartment

The integrated power-cord storage compartment at the rear is used for storing the power cord.

The recess at the bottom facilitates limiting the length of the power cord.

Making coffee - general information

• The measuring scales on the water container help measuring the correct amount of clean water. The left scales are used for standard-sized cups of approx. 125 ml, the right scales for smaller cups.
• Make sure that the indicated maximum amount of water or number of cups is not exceeded.
• If several consecutive brewing cycles are required, switch off the coffee maker after each cycle and let the appliance cool down for approx. 5 minutes.
• Caution: When filling the appliance with fresh water shortly after a brewing cycle is completed, there is a danger of scalding from hot water or steam escaping through the water outlet.

Aroma selection switch

This appliance features a special aroma function, allowing the user to choose coffee with a normal strong flavour, or alternatively a very mild coffee.

Turn the aroma selection switch to the desired setting before the brewing cycle is started:

• • • for mild coffee
or
●●● for normal coffee

Making coffee

1. Filling with water:

Open the water container and fill it with the desired quantity of water, then close the lid.

2. Preparing the carafe:

Fit the drip-through lid so that the two triangular markings ▼ and ▲ are facing each other.

Lock the lid by turning towards the 🔒 mark. Place the carafe into the appliance.

If correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the filter holder during the brewing cycle.

3. Inserting the paper filter:

Open the swing-out filter and insert a size-4 paper filter into the filter holder, first folding down the perforated sides of the filter.

4. Filling with ground coffee:

For each regular-sized cup (125 ml), a measure of about 6 g (= 1½ - 2 teaspoons) of medium or finely ground coffee will be required. Close the swing-out filter afterwards.

5. Connecting the appliance:

Insert the power plug.

6. Selecting the coffee strength:

Turn the aroma selection switch to the desired setting.

7. Starting the brewing cycle:

Use the ⏻ button to switch the coffee maker on. The filtration cycle starts and the water passes through the filter.

8. Removing the carafe:

Wait until all the water has passed through; the carafe can now be removed. To pour coffee, simply push down the lid-opening tab on the drip-through lid.

9. Interrupting the brewing cycle:

To interrupt the brewing cycle, use the ⏻ button to turn the appliance off.

10. Switching off the coffee maker:

Remove the plug from the wall socket once brewing is complete.

Heat-retaining carafe

- For technical reasons the lid does not close hermetically. Therefore always hold the carafe in an upright position when filled with coffee.

- Keeping the coffee hot: A heat-retaining carafe accumulates heat energy. Therefore the carafe should preferably be filled to its maximum capacity. If it is only partly filled, the temperature will not be held as efficiently. If you rinse out the carafe with hot water before use, the coffee will be kept warm for a longer time.

- To prevent the risk of scalding, do not leave the heat-retaining carafe unattended near where children may reach it.

- Therefore, do not drink out of the carafe and do not put your hand into it.

- Always close the carafe with its lid. The coffee can be poured out easily by pressing the lid-opening tab.

- Do not wash the carafe in a dishwasher and do not put it in a microwave oven.

- Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits) on a regular basis to warrant proper functioning.

- Any warranty claim will be null and void if the appliance malfunctions because of insufficient descaling.

- A lengthening of the brewing time, increased noise during brewing or residual water remaining in the container indicate that descaling has become necessary.

- An excessive build-up of lime deposits is very difficult to remove, even when strong descaling agents are used. It may also cause the brewing system to leak. We therefore strongly recommend descaling the appliance after each thirty to forty brewing cycles.

- For descaling, a vinegar solution may be used as follows:

- Mix 80 ml of vinegar essence with the indicated maximum amount of cold water.

- Pour the descaling solution into the water container, insert a paper filter without adding any ground coffee, as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliance run through one filtration cycle.

Models with aroma selection switch: Turn the switch to the position ● ● ● for normal coffee.

- Repeat the procedure if necessary.

- During descaling, ensure sufficient ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar vapours.

- To clean the appliance after descaling, let it run through 2-3 filtration cycles using clean water only.

- Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely.

- To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with liquids or immerse it; do not clean under running tap water. The appliance may be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth, using a mild detergent. Wipe dry afterwards.

- Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions.

- To remove the used coffee grounds, open the swing-out filter, lift out the paper filter and dispose of the grounds (as a natural substance they may be composted). Wipe the inside of the swing-out filter with a damp cloth, dry it and close it again.

- The filter insert may be cleaned with warm water or in a dishwasher after use.

- The drip-through lid may be cleaned with warm dish water.

- Do not dismantle the carafe, do not wash in a dishwasher and do not immerse it in water.

- Rinse the inside of the heat-retaining carafe with water and wipe the outside with a clean damp cloth after use.

- To remove any coffee deposits from the inside of the heat-retaining carafe, fill it with hot water and add a tablespoon of dishwasher detergent. Close with the lid and leave it standing for some hours. Rinse out thoroughly with water afterwards.
