Turning the timer function on/off
Press button prog. If the little clock lights up,
the timer function is on. If the little clock turns

with ON/OFF switch O or the power supply
is interrupted (plug not plugged in, power
failure), the clock and timer settings will be
stored for approximately four days. If the
power interruption lasts longer, you must
reset the clock.

longer period of time, turn it off with ON/OFF

Low water indicator K
This coffee machine senses if the water
volume in the water tank is low (less than
approx. 4 cups). If the water level is low,
K lights up and the machine automatically
increases the brewing time. This ensures
that the coffee retains its ideal flavour.
Thermos carafe
TKA8A68. only
Important: Never use the carafe for keeping
dairy products or baby food warm, because
bacteria may form. Do not heat the carafe
in the microwave or in a regular oven.
Never use the carafe to store or transport
carbonated beverages. Carefully rinse the
carafe after each use.
To keep the lid from permanently vacu­
um­sealing itself shut, it was designed to
not close hermetically. Since the thermos
carafe may leak, you should always store
and transport it in an upright position. The
thermos carafe holds approximately 8 cups.
The lid of the thermos carafe can be opened
with the release switch.
■ Open lid (Fig. d)
■ Close lid (Fig. e)
■ Remove lid (Fig. f)
Coffee-making tips
Store ground coffee in a cool place; you can
also freeze it. Once a package of coffee has
been opened, close it tightly to maintain its

How the coffee beans are roasted affects
their taste and aroma.
Darker roast = more flavour
Lighter roast = more acidity
