How to use the coffee maker:
Before first use
- Operate the coffee maker once without
filling the filter with ground coffee. (See section
"Making coffee".)
- Next, clean the removable parts as described in
section "Cleaning".
Cleaning the coffee jar and filter holder
• The removable items should be washed in hot
soapy water.
Rinse with clean hot water and dry. These
items can also be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Making coffee: please refer to the illustrations
(fig. 2 - 11)
- Use fresh cold water only (fig. 2).
Left hand side level indications: for large
cups (125 ml).
Right hand side level indications: for smaller
cups (80 ml) (fig. 5).
- Use filter paper type "1x2 " or "no. 2". Do not
forget to fold the rims (fig. 7, 8).
- For large cups: one full (heaped) measuring
spoonful of ground coffee ("fast filter" type) for
each cup.
For smaller cups: one level measuring spoonful
for each cup (fig. 9).
• The "drip-stop" (automatic stop-valve) ensures
that no coffee will drip on to the hotplate if the
jug is removed from the appliance for a moment
during the brewing process or if the jug is
removed after making coffee.
Note: the drip-stop will only allow coffee to
flow into the jug if the jug lid has been
placed.
Making more coffee
If you wish to make a second portion of coffee,
please switch the coffee maker off and allow
about three minutes for it to cool down.
Then you can refill the water tank.
Descaling the coffee maker
Descale your coffee maker regularly. With normal
use (two full jugs a day) the following rule applies:
hardness up to 18 °DH (22.5 °Clarke) -
2 or 3 times a year;
hardness over 18 °DH (22.5 °Clarke) -
4 or 5 times a year.
Your water supply company can inform you about
the hardness of your water.
- Operate the appliance twice. However, now use
ordinary vinegar to fill the water tank and do not
fill the filter with coffee.
- After descaling, let the appliance work twice
more with only water to rinse away the vinegar
and scale remainders.
- Wash the coffee jug, lid and filter holder.

How to use the water kettle:
Filling

appliance. Take the kettle from the appliance
(fig. 12).

- ... remove the lid (fig. 14) and fill through the lid
aperture (fig. 15).
Do not forget to replace the lid after filling
(fig. 16).
Do not fill the kettle with less than 0.4 Iitre (up
to "MIN" indication) to prevent the kettle from
running dry while operating.
Do not fill the kettle with more than 1.0 litre (up
to "MAX" indication) to prevent water being
ejected from the spout while boiling.
