(A) Installing the water filter
cartridge
(if applicable; may be purchased separately)
• Unpack the water filter cartridge (7).
• Remove the space compensator (6) from the
water reservoir.
• Insert the water filter cartridge. Be certain to
keep the space compensator as it must be
installed in the water reservoir whenever the
water filter cartridge is removed.
• The water filter cartridge should be exchanged
every two months.
(B) Making Coffee
Before using the coffee maker for the first time or
after a long period of not using it, run the coffee
maker through a complete brew cycle without
ground coffee. Use a full carafe (10 cups) of fresh
cold water.
• Open the water reservoir cover (5).
• When filling the water reservoir with fresh cold
water, refer to the carafe height markings or the
water level indicator and fill to the desired
number of cups.
• Insert a paper filter (cone type # 4) in the filter
basket (8).
• Add the desired amount of ground coffee,
corresponding to the number of cups being
brewed. We recommend using 1 tablespoon or 1
coffee scoop of ground coffee per cup, but use
more or less to suit your taste.
• Close the water reservoir and place the carafe
(10) including lid in its position on the keep warm
plate (2).
• Plug the cord into an electrical outlet and press
the On/Off button (1).
• Brewing time per cup: approximately 1 minute.
Auto Off Function
For your convenience and also additional safety, the
appliance will switch off automatically
40 minutes after the brewing cycle is complete.
Antidrip system
The antidrip system halts the flow of coffee from the
filter basket when the carafe is removed, so a cup
can be poured before brewing is finished.
The carafe should be returned to the keep warm
plate (maximum 20 seconds) to prevent the filter
basket from overflowing.
For Best Results
• When using paper filters, be sure that it is
completely open and fully inserted in the basket.
It may help to fold and flatten the seams of the
paper filter beforehand.
• Store ground coffee in a cool, dry and dark place
in an airtight container.
• For the best performance from your Braun coffee
maker, descale the unit regularly.
Note: The maximum amount of ground coffee the
coffee maker can take is 10 coffee scoops or
tablespoons.
Descaling
Frequency will depend upon the hardness of your
tap water and how often you use the coffee maker.
Descaling is indicated when the brewing time is
much longer than 1 minute per cup.
You can use a commercially available decalcifying
agent not affecting aluminum.
We recommend using the Braun Descaling Solution
(may be purchased separately).
Note: Replace the water filter cartridge (7) with the
space compensator (6) during any decalcification
procedure.
• Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the
decalcifying agent.
• Repeat the procedure as many times as
necessary in order to reduce the brewing time
per cup to a normal level.
• Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to
run through at least twice to clean the coffee
maker.
