Why doesn't the coffee rise?

How to clean the coffee maker?

Let it cool, remove the coffee maker from the base. Clean the inside of the tube with soapy water or under the tap. For the stainless steel exterior, use a soft cloth and avoid abrasive products. Never immerse the base or the socket.

How to descale the coffee maker?

Fill the tank with 300 ml of water and add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the filter. Assemble the coffee maker and run it. Once done, empty and rinse with fresh water before making coffee again.

Can I use the coffee maker without water?

No, the tank must always contain water. Using it empty could damage the appliance and void the warranty.

How much ground coffee to use?

Fill the filter with ground coffee to your taste. The intensity depends on the quantity and tamping. For 3 cups, use the small filter (L) and less coffee.

Can I make something other than coffee?

No, this coffee maker is designed exclusively for coffee. Do not use cocoa powder, chamomile or other infusions, as this could clog the filter.

How to replace the gasket or filter?

Unscrew the coffee maker, remove the old gasket and filter. Insert original FAGOR spare parts. Make sure they are properly in place before reassembling.

Why doesn't the switch light up?

Check that the coffee maker is correctly placed on the base and the cord is plugged in. Make sure the lid is properly closed. If the problem persists, contact an authorized technical service.

What to do if the coffee maker leaks?

• The electrical safety of the appliance is guaranteed only if it is connected to an efficient earth.
• Once you have removed the packaging, check that the appliance is in perfect condition. If in any doubt, contact your nearest Technical Service.
• This appliance must be used only for household use. Do not use it in the open air.
• In the event of a breakdown and/or the appliance fails to work properly, switch it off and do not try to fix it. Contact only a Technical Service authorised by the manufacturer.

• The user must not replace the cord. In the event that the cord is damaged or must be replaced, contact only a Technical Service authorised by the manufacturer.

• Do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or feet. Do not immerse the appliance in water.

• Never use the cord to pull the plug from a socket
• Keep the appliance out of children's reach.
• Do not let the cord touch the hot parts of the appliance.
• Unplug the appliance when not in use and before any cleaning or maintenance operations.
• Try not to get too close to the coffee machine when it is in operation.
• Note that the steam is not always visible and may scald.
• Make sure that the coffee machine lid is down and the filter intact when tilting the coffee machine so as to avoid coffee spilling through the opening in the lid.
• Do not operate the coffee machine on a sloped surface nor move the appliance while it is switched on.
• Do not fill the coffee machine while it is on the connection base. If the connection base gets wet, disconnect the appliance from the current, remove it and dry it thoroughly. Once it is completely dry you may use it again.
• Do not use or place this appliance on or near hot surfaces (gas or electric hotplates, ovens, etc.).
• Never try to make coffee by placing the appliance on the heat as this appliance only works electrically.
• Keep all connections clean and dry.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use as it could be a source of danger.
• Remove the appliance from the base or disconnect it when not in use or before cleaning.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaning agent to clean the stainless steel exterior of the appliance as this could scratch the surface.

• This coffee machine is to be used only to make coffee. Do not use other extracts such as cocoa, chamomile or other infusions as they could block the filter holes.

• Do not use unauthorised connections. This will invalidate the warranty and could cause fire, electric shock or injury.

• Should you decide not to use your appliance again, cut the power cord after unplugging it.

4. OPERATION

BEFORE FIRST USE

Clean and rinse the inside of the coffee machine before using it for the first time and clean the outside with a slightly damp cloth.

Operate the coffee machine a couple of times to get rid of any possible residue. Do not drink this coffee.

USE OF THE APPLIANCE

To make coffee, proceed as follows:

• Check that the coffee machine is cool and then unscrew the top container, holding the bottom container with one hand and turning anticlockwise.
  Warning: Ensure that the gasket (F) and the top filter (E) are clean, that they are not damaged and that they are correctly placed, as shown in Figure 2.
• Fill the bottom container (I) with enough water for the amount of coffee you wish to make. The coffee machine has a mark to indicate how full it should be (Fig. 3) depending on whether you want 3 or 6 cups of coffee.
  Warning: The coffee maker has a safety valve (H) to prevent excess pressure (Fig. 4). Do not fill the coffee machine beyond the height of the valve because boiling water could come out of the coffee maker.
• When full, place the coffee filter onto the bottom container. If you are going to prepare 3 cups, also use the 3 cup filter accessory (L). (Fig. 5)
  IMPORTANT: Do not use the coffee machine without water in the container.
• Fill the filter with ground coffee. Bear in mind that the amount of coffee and how much you press it down will directly

affect the strength of the coffee (Fig. 6).

• Put the top part of the coffee machine in place by turning it clockwise. (Fig. 7)
• Once assembled, place the coffee machine on the base (K) (Fig. 8).
• To switch the coffee machine on, close the lid and press the 'on' button (J). This button will light up while the coffee machine is in operation (Fig. 9).
  Warning: The lid must be closed while the coffee machine is in operation.
• The coffee will start to rise in a couple of minutes.

USE OF THE 3 OR 6 CUP FILTERS

Depending on how many cups of coffee you wish to make, you must proceed differently.

The coffee machine has a mark to indicate how far you should fill the container, depending on how many cups of coffee you wish to make. (Fig. 3)

To prepare a full pot (6 cups) of coffee, remove the 3 cup filter from the appliance (L) and fill the container with water up to the 6 cup level. If you wish to make 3 cups, fill the pot only up to the 3 cup level. If you wish to make 3 cups, you should assemble the 3 cup accessory as well as the normal filter (Fig. 5).

5. CLEANING

• Before cleaning the appliance, wait until it has cooled down.
• Remove the appliance from its connection base.
• Clean the inside of the tube periodically with soapy water or rinse it under the tap.
• Check the funnel and gasket regularly. In the event of wear or deterioration, replace them with original spare parts.
• Check from time to time that the filter holes are not obstructed. If necessary, clean them with a pin.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, degreasers, alcohol, etc. to clean any part of the coffee machine. Simply wipe it with a sponge, without wetting any electrical components.

- Do not wash the coffee machine in the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT: Do not rinse the coffee machine's connection base under the tap or immerse it in water or any other liquid.

DECALCIFICATION

To get rid of calcium residues which form on the internal metal parts, use 2 soup spoonfuls of lemon in the coffee filter and fill the coffee machine with 300 ml of water. Assemble all parts of the coffee machine and ensure that it is properly closed. Connect the coffee machine to its base and switch it on. Once the process has finished, remove the scale and the water solution. Repeat if necessary.

Once this process is complete, operate the coffee machine filled with pure cold water before making coffee again.

6. INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES

At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this

service. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.

To remind you that you must collaborate with a selective collection scheme, the symbol shown appears on the product warning you not to dispose of it in traditional refuse containers.

For further information, contact your local authority or the shop where you bought the product.
