Frequently Asked Questions - 2324056 RUSSELL HOBBS

How to set the clock on the Russell Hobbs 2324056 coffee machine?

Plug in the machine, then use the h (hours) and min (minutes) buttons to set the time in 24-hour format. The clock retains its settings as long as the appliance remains plugged in.

How to program the timer so that the coffee is ready at a specific time?

Make sure the clock is set to the correct time. Press the ⏻ (timer) button, set the desired time with h and min, then press ⏻ to confirm. The timer icon will appear. Add water and coffee, then the machine will automatically start at the programmed time.

What does the 1-4 function mean and how to use it?

The 1-4 function allows for a stronger coffee, especially for small quantities (1 to 4 cups). Press the 1-4 button before starting brewing; the indicator lights up. The machine slows the flow to extract more flavor.

How to descale the machine when the screen shows CL?

After 60 cycles, the screen flashes CL. For descaling, use a descaling solution suitable for plastics. Fill the tank with the descaling solution according to instructions, then run a cycle without coffee. Rinse with fresh water by running 2-3 cycles. To remove the constant CL, press and hold 1-4 and ⏻ simultaneously for 3 seconds.

Can you use the machine without setting the clock?

Yes, the clock is not mandatory for basic use. You can brew coffee immediately by pressing the start button. The clock is only necessary for the timer function.

What type of filter to use?

Use paper filters size #4 (not included). Place the filter in the filter holder before adding ground coffee.

Why should the carafe not remain empty on the hot plate?

The hot plate keeps the coffee warm, but if the carafe is empty, residual heat can damage the glass or the plate. Always remove the empty carafe after use.

How to stop the machine during brewing?

Press the (stop) button. The cycle is interrupted. To restart, press the start button again. Note that the coffee already in the carafe stays warm thanks to the hot plate.

What to do if coffee does not flow or flows slowly?

Check that the filter holder is properly locked in (audible click) and that the filter is not overfilled. Make sure the tank has enough water. Descaling may be necessary if limescale is blocking the system.

Are the machine parts dishwasher safe?

Yes, the carafe and filter holder can be washed on the top rack of the dishwasher. For other surfaces, clean with a damp cloth.

3. The clock will retain its settings until the coffee maker is unplugged.

COFFEE STRENGTH

Pressing the 1-4 button will make the brewed coffee slightly stronger. You can also use it if you are only brewing a partial carafe of coffee (i.e. not completely filling the reservoir). Your coffee maker will then alter the brewing process so your coffee will have about the same strength as it would if you had made a full carafe.

1. Press the 🎨 button – the 🔺 icon will appear on the display. The 🎨 button will light up.
