General information

• Fill water tank 1 with clean, cold water only. Never add milk or beverages such as tea or coffee since this will damage the appliance.
• Never exceed the „10 ☐“ marking when you fill the tank 1 with water.
• Use coffee with a medium grind (approx. 6 g per cup = level measuring spoon 13).
• Do not brew less than the minimum amount of three cups since the coffee will not have the desired strength and temperature (1 cup = approx. 125 ml).
• Never remove the glass carafe 6 while the machine is brewing coffee since this may cause the filter holder 4 to overflow.
• Make sure that glass carafe's lid is closed when you place the carafe 6 on the coffee machine.
• Do not use other carafes since the special drip protector will block the coffee from flowing into the receptacle.

- Some water accumulation on the filter holder 4 is normal; it does not indicate that the coffee machine is defective.

Before using for the first time

• Remove any stickers or film.
• Pull enough of the power cable out of the storage compartment 12 and plug in.
• To clean, fill water tank with 6 cups of water and replace it. Press the ON/OFF switch 7 ①; cleaning program starts.
• Repeat the cleaning process.

Note: You may notice a „new machine“ smell; this is normal. If this is the case, fill with a vinegar solution (1 cup of vinegar for 5 cups of water) and run the cleaning program. Next, rinse the machine twice with 6 cups of water.

- Clean the carafe thoroughly.

Brewing coffee

• Remove the water tank 1, fill it with water and replace it.
• Swivel out filter housing 3.
• Insert a 1x4 paper filter in the filter holder 4 and add the desired amount of coffee.
• Flip back the filter housing 3 until it engages.
• Place the glass carafe 6 with the lid closed under the filter housing 3.
• Press the ON/OFF switch 7 ① to start the brewing cycle. At the same time, the auto off function is activated; the display lights up.

Note: The machine has an auto off (power save) function, which switches it off after approximately two hours.

Important: When the brewing process is complete, wait a moment until all the coffee has run through the filter and into the carafe.

Let the machine cool down for five minutes before brewing a fresh pot.

Low water indicator

This coffee machine senses if the water volume in the water tank is low (less than approx. 4 cups).

If the water level is low, lights up and the machine automatically increases the brewing time. This ensures that the coffee retains its ideal flavour.

Coffee-making tips

Store ground coffee in a cool place; you can also freeze it.

Once a package of coffee has been opened, close it tightly to maintain its aroma.

How the coffee beans are roasted affects their taste and aroma.

Darker roast = more flavour

Lighter roast = more acidity

Cleaning

Never immerse the device in water or place it in the dishwasher!

Don't steam-clean the appliance.

Unplug the appliance before cleaning it.

– Clean all parts that came into contact with coffee after each use.
- Clean the coffee machine's exterior with a damp cloth; do not use strong or abrasive cleaning agents.
- Clean the water tank 1 under running water; don't use a firm brush.
- The glass carafe 6 and its lid are dishwasher-safe.

Descaling

This appliance is equipped with an automatic descaling indicator. If calc indicator lights up, the machine needs to be descaled.

Regular descaling

– makes your appliance last longer
- ensures proper function
– prevents excessive steam
– speeds up the brewing process
- saves energy

Descale the machine with a commercial descaling agent.

• Switch off the machine and allow it to cool.
• Place the glass carafe 6 with the lid closed on the coffee machine.
• Prepare the descaling solution according to the manufacturer's instructions and pour it into the water tank 1.

Warning: Do not fill with more than 6 cups.

• Switch the machine on using the ① ON/OFF button.
• Press and hold down the button descale 11 calc for at least 2 seconds. The descaling process starts.
• The program interrupts the process several times for a few minutes in order to let the descaling agent penetrate the deposits. The entire descaling process takes about 30 minutes.
• When the descaling process is complete, the display calc will no longer light up. Operate the machine twice using clean water, without coffee. Do not fill the tank with more than 6 cups of water.
• Thoroughly rinse all removable parts and the carafe.

Troubleshooting

The machine takes noticeably longer or switches itself off before the brewing process is complete.

→The machine needs descaling.

Tip: If your water is very hard, descale the coffee machine more frequently than requested by the calc indicator.
