4. Setting the hotplate
Keeping coffee warm on the hotplate affects the taste
of your coffee. To avoid this you should enjoy your
coffee fresh by drinking it as soon after brewing as
possible. Unnecessary warming also uses valuable
energy. The factory settings for the appliance are for
40 minutes of warming. After this the hotplate turns
off automatically. This time can be changed as needed:
• Press the START button longer than two seconds.
• In the factory settings the START button flashes
briefly twice with the following pause (......).

followed by a pause (......, ......, ......).
• The settings and display are shown in table 2.
• Once you have set the desired warming time,
confirm your settings by pressing the START button
for longer than two seconds. Your settings are
now saved
• The last setting chosen remains even after removing
the power cable.
