Warnings for the Use of the Appliance

WARNING:

• Even after use, the water tank lid, the storage surface for the jug and the base of the jug still have residual heat.
  • Only touch the jug by the handle.
  • Never open the water tank lid during cooking.
• If you want to make several pots of coffee in succession, let the appliance cool down first with the water tank open so that no hot water splashes when refilling the water.

- Only operate the appliance when the water tank is filled with water.

Notes for Use

Location

- Place the coffee maker on a stable and level surface. Place the appliance in such way that it cannot tip over.

- Do not place the appliance in close proximity to a gas or electric stove or any other heat source.

Note on the Brewing Process

Depending on the grind and quantity, the coffee powder absorbs water during the brewing process. The amount of finished coffee therefore differs from the amount of water added.

Electrical Connection

1. Ensure that your mains power corresponds with the specifications of the appliance. The specifications are printed on the type label.
2. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed earthed socket. The appliance is in standby mode. Readiness for operation is displayed by the time on the display.

European Regulations on Energy Saving

The European Directive 2009 / 125 / EC (Ecodesign Directive) incorporates measurements for energy saving.

For Coffee Machines where the coffee is stored in an insulated container, a maximum waiting time of 5 minutes after the last brewing process has been completed applies. The appliance then switches off automatically.

You benefit from better safety and lower energy consumption.

Initial Operation

Before brewing coffee for the first time, start the appliance twice with clean water only, without paper filter and without coffee powder. This will remove any dust that may have accumulated in the appliance during transport. Proceed as described under "Switching on the Coffee Machine Directly".

10. Place the jug on the storage surface.

CAUTION: Anti-drip protection

Your appliance is equipped with anti-drip protection. It closes when the jug is removed. This prevents coffee from dripping onto the shelf when there is still water in the filter.

• Make sure that the lid is on the jug. It opens the anti-drip protection.
- If there is still water in the water tank, put the jug back on the storage surface in good time. The filter could otherwise overflow.

Selection of Aroma Strength

Filter coffee develops more aroma if it swells before brewing. The longer the swelling time, the stronger the aroma.

The appliance offers a choice of three different aroma strengths: mild, medium and strong. Swelling time is increased or decreased in accordance with the brewing procedure.

• Press the Strength button once. "∅" appears below the time on the display.
• Increase aroma strength by pressing the Strength button several times.
