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. GB13 142 x 208 mm 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 tted 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 rst. ∙ Do not open the swing-out lter during use. ∙ Always allow the appliance to cool down for about 5 minutes after use and before opening the swing-out lter or lling with fresh water.

Before using for the rst time ∙ Unpack the appliance completely and remove all packaging materials and stickers. ∙ Clean the carafe and lter insert as described in the section Cleaning and care. ∙ Before making coffee for the rst time, let the appliance go through two or three ltration 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 lling 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 avour, or alternatively a very mild coffee.

10. Switchingoffthecoffeemaker:

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 lled with coffee. ∙ Keeping the coffee hot: A heat- retaining carafe accumulates heat energy. Therefore the carafe should preferably be lled to its maximum capacity. If it is only partly lled, the temperature will not be held as efciently. 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. Recipes Are you in the mood for some delicious coffee specialities? or under www.severin.de/Service/Rezepte17 142 x 208 mm Cleaning and care Descaling ∙ 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 insufcient 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 difcult 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 lter without adding any ground coffee, as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliance run through one ltration cycle. Models with aroma selection switch: Turn the switch to the position for normal coffee. ∙ Repeat the procedure if necessary. ∙ During descaling, ensure sufcient ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar vapours. ∙ To clean the appliance after descaling, let it run through 2-3 ltration cycles using clean water only. ∙ Do not pour descalers down enamel sinks. Daily cleaning ∙ 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 lter, lift out the paper lter and dispose of the grounds (as a natural substance they may be composted). Wipe the inside of the swing-out lter with a damp cloth, dry it and close it again. ∙ The lter 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, ll 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.18 142 x 208 mm Disposal Devices marked with this symbol must be disposed of separately from your household waste, as they contain valuable materials which can be recycled.
