INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• Lift up the lid (1) and pour water into the water tank (2) according to the number of cups you want to make.
• Place the filter holder (3) in the coffee maker, checking that it fits correctly with the tab on the right (fig.1), then place the permanent filter (4) or a paper filter and add ground coffee to the filter (4). Recommended dose: 1 coffee scoop per cup.
• Close the lid again.
• NOTE: You should preheat the thermos jug before starting to make coffee. To do so, wash the inside with hot water. This will keep the coffee hot for longer. In order for the coffee to stay hot for longer, we recommend making at least half a jug of coffee each time.
• To remove the lid from the jug, turn it to the right until the arrow on the jug matches the OPEN marking (fig.2). Then pull upwards.
• To place the lid on the jug, align the arrow on the lid with the OPEN marking and turn it to the right until it matches the CLOSE marking (fig.3).
• Make sure the lid of the jug is correctly in place and place the jug (6) on the hotplate (8) as shown in figure 4.
• Plug the coffee maker into the mains.
• Turn the switch (7) to the on position (I). The pilot light will come on.
• You can remove the jug during the coffee-dripping process, since the automatic antidrip system will prevent it from dripping. Be careful if you remove the jug for too long, since the water in the filter holder can overflow.
• If you find that the coffee overflowed from the coffee holder at the end of the process, use a smaller amount of coffee the next time.
• You do not need to remove the thermos jug lid to serve the coffee, simply press down on the tab on the lid (fig.5). After serving the coffee, release the tab so that the coffee is kept hot inside the thermos jug (6).
• If you did not drink all the coffee, you can leave the jug on the hotplate (8) with the coffee maker switched on or off, since the thermos jug will keep the coffee hot.

• To clean the body of the coffee maker and the hotplate, simply use a sponge or a damp cloth.
• You can wash the filter holder with hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher.
• Wash the thermos jug and its lid with soapy water and rinse with plenty of water. Never wash them in the dishwasher.
• Descale the coffee maker approximately once every 6 months, depending on how often you use it and the hardness of the water. To remove incrusted scale, we recommend cleaning out all the pipes that carry water. To do so, add equal amounts of water and vinegar. Switch the coffee maker on and let all the liquid come out. Then, let the coffee maker work twice with nothing but water, to clean it out completely.
