SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A. We do not recommend using an extension cord with this device. B. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,

1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord

should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the machine,

2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not

drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. C. This machine has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug.

BREWING COFFEE Brewing delicious coffee is an art and a science. Your machine is designed to deliver the ultimate result in the cup, with that result being highly dependent on 4 basic factors :

Read more about these important factors on the following pages.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Remove all packaging. Follow the steps below to run a first brew cycle to rinse the system. Use a full tank of water and do not use coffee or coffee filter. MAKING COFFEE ■ Fill the water tank with cold water. The water level window on the side of the Coffee ma- chine shows the amount of water in the ma- chine. Use filtered water if possible. ■ Cups are measured as 5 oz. each. The carafe is marked with cup measurements and the water tank has dual water windows with gra- duated markings on each side of the machine. IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:13 Page7English

■ Add a paper coffee filter or permanent filter to the brew basket. Krups accessories: #4 paper filters 100-pack. Item # 983 # 4 size gold tone filter. Item # 049 ■ Add ground coffee to the basket. Measure one rounded coffee scoop per 5 oz. cup of water. This simple step is critical to the taste of your brewed coffee. See your brewing guide on page 11 for more detail. ■ Close the lid and insert the carafe into the machine. Be sure the carafe sits straight and level on the heating plate before starting the brew cycle. *NOTE : If you use the carafe to fill the tank with cold water rinse the carafe with hot water before starting the brew cycle. This will help raise the temperature of the coffee in the carafe. ■ Press the On/Off button and the brew cycle will begin. IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:14 Page8English

The On/Off button will glow green while the machine is brewing and stay lighted for 2 hours while the coffee is kept warm on the heating plate. ■ You can turn the machine off at any time by pressing the On/Off button again. ■ This coffee machine is equiped with an anti-drip, pause and serve system which enables you to serve the coffee before it has completely finished a brew cycle. If you serve yourself a coffee while the cycle is still running place the carafe back in position quickly to prevent any spillage. Auto-Off Function : ■ The heating plate will maintain the temperature in the carafe for up to 2 hours. After 2 hours the machine shuts off automatically. This is for safety and convenience. This setting is not adjustable. Pause and Serve Feature : ■ You can remove the carafe during the brew cycles to pour an early cup. Keep in mind that this will change the taste you would normally get from a full pot in a complete cycle. Be sure to replace the carafe quickly to avoid overflow during the brew cycle. DURING THE BREW CYCLE STEAM RISES FROM THE TOP OF THE MACHINE. BE CAREFUL TO KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THIS AREA UNTIL AFTER THE BREW CYCLE IS COMPLETED. IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:14 Page9English CLEANING Used ground coffee and the paper filter can be disposed in the trash or compost. Do this soon after brewing. If possible do not leave wet coffee sitting in the machine overnight.

■ The filter basket holder has a handle to allow easy disposal of the grounds. ■ The filter basket holder should be cleaned regularly with soap and water. ■ The glass carafe should be rinsed after every cycle and regularly washed with soap and water. ■ The filter basket holder and the glass carafe are top shelf dishwasher safe. DESCALING Your coffee machine should be descaled periodically or whenever the brew cycle has slowed noticeably. Normally it should not take more than 10 minutes to brew a full pot. It is recommended to descale at least every 3 months using a des- caling solution designed for use in coffee machines. Visit Krups website www.Krupsonlinestore.com for approved des- caling products. IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:14 Page10English

Before descaling remove the permanent filter (if applicable) from the brew basket. Do not put ground coffee in the filter basket. ■ Fill the water tank, add the descaling powder to the water and stir it to dissolve the powder. ■ Press ON and let 1/2 the water run through and into the carafe, then turn the machine off. ■ Let the solution sit in the machine for 20-30 minutes. ■ Turn the machine ON again and let the rest of the water run through. ■ Discard the water and run another cycle with clean water to rinse the system. The warranty excludes coffee machines which have stopped working or do not work properly due to lack of descaling. ACCESSORIES ■ Paper filters : item 983 ■ Gold Tone Filter : item 049 ■ Descaling kit : item 42821 (3 per box) ■ Replacement glass carafe: part XB100B50 These items are available at your local Krups retailer or can be ordered on the website : www.Krupsonlinestore.com

COFFEE BREWING GUIDE

THE COFFEE Choose your beans wisely. It is best to use premium whole beans from a trusted brand or roaster. Arabica beans provide the best flavors and have less caffeine and while Robusta beans are easier to grow and less expensive, they have less flavor and higher caffeine content. Robusta beans are IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:14 Page11English sometimes used in blends to add a particular bitterness to the brew. Beans can be roasted very lightly to provide a smooth aromatic taste or roasted dark to provide stronger flavors, and anywhere in bet- ween. A good roaster will be able to describe the flavors that the beans will impart to your brewed coffee. Note: Experiment with different beans and different roasts to iden- tify one or several that suit your tastes. THE RATIO The amount of ground coffee must be carefully measured against the volume of water for each brew cycle. It is important to use enough cof- fee to avoid over extraction. A small amount of coffee would be overw- helmed by a large volume of hot water. 1cup = 5 oz. Maximum capacity = 10 cups = 50 oz. The volume of brewed coffee will be slightly less because the ground coffee will absorb a certain amount. Krups recommends using 7 grams of ground coffee per 5 oz cup of water. 7 grams can be measured in one rounded tablespoon. If the re- sulting brew seems too strong you can adjust by using slightly less ground coffee. If you prefer a much lighter taste it is best to brew at the recommanded ratio and dilute the resulting brew with a measure of hot water. This allows the best flavor to be extracted from the beans while avoiding over extraction of too small an amount of ground coffee. THE WATER The water is a critical factor in the taste of your brewed coffee. Fil- tered water is normally the best choice to help avoid the minerals and chlorine that can be found in municipal water systems. However if your water tastes good then it should be good for your coffee. Never pour milk, prepared coffee, tea, etc. into water tank.

THE GRIND The method of grinding and the level of fineness of the grind have a si- gnificant impact on the resulting taste of the brewed coffee. Ideally you should grind fresh roasted whole beans just before brewing. Be aware that this machine is set to brew the most common grinds found on store shelves. Typically preground coffees are of a similar size, medium-co- arse. A very fine grind will produce much stronger flavors but risks be- coming extracted during the brew cycle producing a more bitter taste. You can learn more about coffee grinding and about Krups range of grinders at our website www.krupsusa.com TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

Coffee brews too slowly. - Descale the machine (see “Descaling” page 10) - Clean the brew basket and drip stop valve of coffee residue. Also clean the permanent filter if applicable. - Check that there are no issues with the power supply. - Use a different quality coffee paper. - Check that any coffee bean is not clogging the tank bottom. The lid does not close properly - The filter holder must be seated & locked into the basket. - Use the handle to seat the filter holder, and then turn the handle to the locked position. The stop-drip does not work - Clean the valve under running water, manually activating the stop-drip. IFU_KR_PRELUDE_KM1010_NC00020247-01_Mise en page 1 18/10/10 10:14 Page13English
