Preparation

Unpacking

Remove all components of the appliance and the operating manual from the carton.
Remove all packing material.

Disposal of the packaging

The packaging protects the appliance against transport damage. The packaging materials are selected from the point of view of their environmental friendliness and disposal technology and are therefore recyclable.

The recirculation of packaging into the material circuit saves on raw material and reduces the amount of waste generated. Dispose of packaging material that is no longer needed as per the regionally established regulations.

NOTICE

If possible, preserve the appliance's original packaging during the warranty period so that, in the event of a warranty claim, you can pack the appliance ideally for its return.

Setting up and connecting to the power supply

Under no circumstances should the appliance be located close to water, especially to filled sinks and other waterfilled vessels. Use the coffee machine only on a thoroughly dry surface. The proximity of water presents a danger, even when the appliance is switched off. After use, always disconnect the plug from the mains power socket.

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Never locate the coffee machine close to sources of heat.
  To avoid damage to the appliance and the location area, use the coffee machine only on a flat and heat-resistant surface.

1) Place the appliance on a dry and heat-resistant surface.
2) Place the glass jug ⑦ on the keep-warm plate ④ in the appliance.
3) Finally, insert the plug into the power socket.

Operation

Before the first usage

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Never fill the water tank ② with a total volume of more than 10 cups of water. Never pour less than 2 cups of water in the water tank ②. Doing so may damage the coffee maker. Use the water level indicator on the water tank ②.
• Disconnect the coffee machine immediately after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power ONLY when it is unplugged.
• Fill the water tank ② with water only. Otherwise, the coffee maker may be damaged.

1) Carefully rinse the glass jug with mains water.
2) Remove the filter holder 8.
3) Pour water into the water tank. Empty the water tank, in that you carefully tip the appliance over a sink and pour the water out. Then carefully dry the appliance.
4) Rinse the filter holder 8 with clean water and place it back into the appliance.
5) Fill the glass jug with 10 cups of water.
6) Completely fill the water tank 2 with the water.
7) Close the lid 1, ensuring that it engages.
8) Place the emptied glass jug ⑦ onto the keep-warm plate ④.
9) Insert the plug into a mains power socket.
10) Switch the coffee machine on with the On/Off switch ⑤. The integrated control lamp glows. Wait until the brewing process is complete.
11) Switch the coffee machine off with the On/Off switch ⑤. The integrated control lamp goes out.
12) Empty the glass jug ⑦ and clean it as described in the section "Cleaning and Care".
13) Wait until the appliance has cooled down.

Filling with ground coffee

1) Open the lid ①.
2) Place a paper filter bag (size 1 × 4 ) with folded over sides into the filter holder.
3) Fill it with the required amount of coffee powder using the measuring spoon ⑥.

NOTICE

• Fill it with approx one levelled measuring spoon of ground coffee for each cup of filter coffee. Should you prefer a weaker coffee, reduce the amount of ground coffee being used.

Filling with water

WARNING - HEALTH RISK!

Use only drinking water for preparing the coffee!

NOTICE

When brewing coffee some water is lost: a part of the water evaporates as steam and some water always remains in the coffee powder. For this reason, the level indicators on the water tank 2 and on the glass jug 7 are slightly different. The amount of water in the water tank 2 is, in respect of the markings, always somewhat more than the same marking on the glass jug 7.

The lid 1 is still open after filling it with coffee powder.

1) Fill the glass jug 7 with water.

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Never fill the water tank ② with a total volume of more than 10 cups of water. Never pour less than 2 cups of water into the water tank ②. Use the water level indicator on the water tank ②.

2) Pour the amount of water into the water tank ② appropriate to the desired amount of brewed coffee. For this, use the water level indicator on the water tank ②.
3) Close the lid 1, ensuring that it engages.

Switching On and Off

1) When you are ready to switch the coffee machine on, press the On/Off switch ⑤. The integrated control lamp glows. The brewing process begins.
2) When you are ready to switch the coffee machine off, press the On/Off switch 5 once again. The integrated control lamp extinguishes.
3) Disconnect the plug from the mains power socket if you are intending to discontinue using the coffee machine.

NOTICE

If you do not switch the coffee machine off after the brewing process is complete, the coffee will be kept warm on the keep-warm plate 4.

NOTICE

• Wait for at least 10 minutes, after you have switched the coffee machine off, before you start a new brew.

Cleaning and Care

Cleaning the appliance

In order to obtain an optimal taste result from every brewing process you should clean the coffee machine after every use.

Before cleaning, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket! There is the risk of receiving an electric shock!
- Do not open any part of the housing. There are no user-serviceable elements inside. An open housing will create the risk of a potentially fatal electrical shock.

NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids! This would incur the risk of a potentially fatal electrical shock should liquids come into contact with powered components.

WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!

Let the appliance cool sufficiently before cleaning it. Risk of Burns!

WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning materials. These could attack the upper surfaces and irreparably damage the appliance.
  Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove soiling. These could damage the appliance.

• Disconnect the plug from the mains power socket.
  Wipe the housing of the coffee machine with a damp cloth. For stubborn soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth.
  Clean the glass jug 7, the filter holder 8 and the measuring spoon 6 with warm water. If need be, use also a mild detergent. Afterwards, rinse all parts with clean water to ensure that all detergent residues are washed away.
  Dry the appliance and all parts well before re-use.

Scale removal

The mineral content (hardness) in the water causes, over a period of time, a calcification of the coffee machine. This calcification impairs the appliance in its function and diminishes the quality of the brewed filter coffee.

NOTICE

Enquire at your local waterworks about the hardness level of your mains water. The need for decalcification comes early in hard water areas, somewhat later in soft water areas. Use a decalcifier designed for household appliances and pay heed to the usage instructions.

1) Switch the coffee machine off and allow it to cool down completely.
2) Use a commercial descaling product for coffee machines: Mix the descaling agent with water. Thereby, pay heed to the usage instructions supplied with the descaling product.
3) Fill the water tank ② to the 8-cup marking with the descaler and water mixture.
4) Place the glass jug 7 on the keep-warm plate 4.
5) Switch the coffee machine on with the On/Off switch ⑤.
6) Wait until the brewing process is complete. Switch the coffee machine off and disconnect the plug from the mains power socket.
7) Carefully rinse the glass jug with water.
8) Fill the water tank 2 with drinking water.
9) Empty the water tank 2 again, in that you gently tip the appliance over the sink. Thereby ensure that the filter holder 3 does not fall out.
10) To finish, carry out two brewing processes with just drinking water, as described in the section "Before the first usage".

When completed, you can continue to use the coffee machine.

Storage

Clean the appliance thoroughly before putting it into storage.
If you do not intend to use the appliance for an extended period, slide the power cable into the cable storage compartment 3 at the rear of the coffee machine. Secure the plug in the holes above the cable storage compartment 4.
Store the appliance at a clean and dry location.
