∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – these are
a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fitted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull
the power cord, it must no longer be
used: even invisible damage may have
adverse effects on the operational safety
of the appliance.
∙ During operation, the coffee maker must
be placed on a level, non-slip surface,
impervious to splashes and stains.
∙ Do not allow the appliance or its power
cord to touch hot surfaces or to come
into contact with any heat sources.
∙ To prevent the danger of hot water or
steam being emitted, always switch off
the coffee maker and allow sufficient
time for the appliance to cool down
before it is opened or any accessories or
attachments are removed.
∙ Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
∙ Always close the carafe with its drip-
through lid. Do not leave the heat-
retaining carafe unattended near where
children may reach it.
∙ Remove the plug from the wall socket
- in case of any malfunction,
- during cleaning,
- after each cycle of use.
∙ When removing the plug from the wall
socket, never pull on the power cord;
always grip the plug itself.
∙ Do not touch the plug with wet hands.
∙ Do not allow the power cord to hang
free; the cord must be kept well away
from hot parts of the appliance.
∙ No responsibility will be accepted if
damage results from improper use, or if
these instructions are not complied with.
Automatic switch-off
To save energy, the appliance will switch
itself off automatically after the brewing
cycle is complete.
Before using for the first time
Before making coffee for the first time,
let the appliance go through two or
three filtration cycles using the indicated
maximum amount of cold water, but without
using ground coffee. This should also be
done if the appliance has not been used
for an extended period of time, and after
descaling.
General information
∙ Depending on the appliance model,
the water container shows one or two
measuring scales to facilitate filling the
container with the correct amount of
clean water. The left scale is used for
regular-sized cups of approx.125 ml,
while the right scale is used for smaller
cups. Make sure that the indicated
maximum amount of water is not
exceeded.
