Frequently Asked Questions - KA 9236 SEVERIN

How to prepare coffee with the Severin KA 9236?

Fill the water tank with cold water, insert a size 4 paper filter into the swivel filter holder, add about 6 g of ground coffee per cup (125 ml), close the lid, place the thermal carafe with its lid on, plug in and press the on/off switch. The appliance automatically shuts off at the end of the cycle.

How to clean the Severin KA 9236 coffee maker?

Unplug and let cool. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Never immerse the appliance in water. Rinse the thermal carafe with clean water, do not put it in the dishwasher. Clean the permeable lid with warm soapy water.

How to descale the Severin KA 9236?

Mix 80 ml of vinegar essence with the maximum amount of cold water. Pour into the tank, insert a paper filter (without coffee), run a brewing cycle. Repeat if necessary, then run 2-3 cycles with clean water to rinse. Do not pour the descaling solution into an enamel sink.

What to do if the coffee maker does not turn on?

Check that the plug is properly inserted and that the wall outlet works. If the problem persists, contact an authorized after-sales service. Do not attempt to repair it yourself.

How to use the thermal carafe?

Place the aroma-preserving or permeable lid on the carafe before brewing. After the cycle, you can close with the screw-on lid to keep warm. To pour without removing the stopper, turn it half a turn to the left. Never drink directly from the carafe.

How to interrupt the brewing cycle?

You can interrupt the cycle by pressing the on/off switch again. Caution: do not open the tank lid during operation to avoid burns.

What to do if the coffee maker leaks?

Check that the paper filter is properly inserted and that the tank lid is closed securely. If leaks persist, it may indicate a need for descaling (limescale deposits) or a mechanical issue. Contact after-sales service.

Where to find spare parts for the Severin KA 9236?

Spare parts such as carafes, filters and lids are available from Severin after-sales service. Consult the list of service centers in the manual or contact the point of purchase.

Automatic switch-off

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

Before using for the first time

Before making coffee for the first time,

let the appliance go through two or three fi 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.

General information

- A measuring scale on the water container facilitates filling the container with the correct amount of clean water. With a dual-scale, the left scale is used for regular-sized cups of approx. 125ml, while the right scale is used for smaller cups. Make sure that the indicated maximum amount of water is not exceeded.

- Caution: the hot water outlet is integrated in the water container lid. Do not attempt to open the lid while brewing is in progress: there is a danger of scalding.

- If several consecutive brewing cycles are required, allow the appliance to cool down for 5 minutes or so after each cycle.

- Important note: 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.

Making coffee

- Filling with water:

Open the water container lid and fill the container with the required quantity of water.

- Inserting the paper filter:

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

• Filling with ground coffee:

For each regular-sized cup (125ml), a measure of about 6 g (= 1½ - 2 teaspoons) of medium or finely ground coffee will be

required. Close the water container lid afterwards.

• Preparing the glass carafe:

Fit the aroma protection lid or the drip-through lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance. If correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the swing-out filter during the brewing cycle.

• Starting the brewing cycle:

Put the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off button to turn the coffee maker on. The fi ltration cycle starts and the water passes through the fi Iter.

- Removing the glass carafe:

Wait until all the water has passed through the fi Iter before the carafe is removed from the appliance. To keep the coffee hot for as long as possible, remove the aroma protection lid and use the screw-in lid to close the carafe. However, this is not necessary if your coffee maker has a drip-through lid, which can remain on the carafe. Once the brewing cycle is complete, the appliance switches off automatically.

- Switching off the coffee maker:

Always remove the plug from the wall outlet once brewing is complete.

- Interrupting the brewing cycle:

The brewing cycle can be interrupted by pressing the On/Off button again.

Coffee maker with drip-through lid

During the fi Itering process and while pouring the coffee out, the drip-through lid does not need to be removed and should remain on the jug. To pour the coffee, turn the lid counter-clockwise about half a turn so that the arrow on the lid is aligned with the pouring spout.

Heat-retaining carafe

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

- Keeping the coffee hot: A heat-conserving 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.

The interior of the heat-retaining carafe insert consists of high quality double-walled glass with a vacuum in-between for better insulation. Any streaks or bubble marks inside the carafe looking like bubbles or scratches do not affect its functional use nor its heat-retaining ability.

In case the glass is damaged for one or the other reason as mentioned below, there is a risk that the glass carafe implodes. This might happen quite some time after the glass carafe has actually been damaged.

- Therefore do not drink out of the carafe and do not put your hand into it. Always close the carafe with its screw cap. The coffee can be poured out easily by half a turn of the cap, without removing the cap. Do not leave the vacuum carafe unattended near where children may reach it.

To prevent damage to the glass carafe:

- Avoid shocks and great differences in temperature.

- Do not stir in the carafe, for example with

a metal spoon.

- Do not use hard brushes or abrasive cleaning agents.

- Do not wipe the inside with a cloth. Dust particles may cut the glass (similar to a glass-cutter).

- Do not wash in a dishwasher.

- Do not use in a microwave oven.

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 insufficient descaling.

- A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing indicate that descaling of the coffee maker 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 fi lter into the fi lter holder without adding any ground coffee as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliance run through one fi ltration cycle. Repeat the procedure if necessary. During descaling, ensure

suffi cient ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar vapours.

- To clean the appliance after descaling, let it run through 2-3 fi ltration 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. 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 coffee grounds, open the swing-out fi liter and remove it. Dispose of the ground coffee (as a natural substance, it may be compo-sted). Rinse out the swing-out fi liter, replace and close it.
• Do not dismantle the carafe, do not wash in a dishwasher and do not immerse it in water.
• Rinse the inside of the carafe with water and wipe the outside with a clean damp cloth after use.
• To remove coffee deposits from the inside of the carafe, fi ll it with hot water and add a teaspoon of dishwasher detergent. Close the screw-in lid and leave the carafe for some hours. Rinse out thoroughly with water afterwards.
• The drip-through lid may be cleaned with hot soapy water; rinse thoroughly with fresh water afterwards.
