The function can also be used for full pots but will cause more of the bitter flavors to be
extracted in that case. Krups recommends only using Aroma Control for small batches
less than 6 cups.

WATER FILTRATION

• DuoFilter Water Filtration: active vegetable based double acting anti-chlorine and
anti-scale filter. The anti-chlorine action of the filter brings out the most delicate
flavors of the coffee. The anti-scale action allows for longer periods between
descaling.
Note: there is a rotary indicator on the top of the water filter holder. This indicates
when the DuoFilter should be changed. Place the index mark next to the month the
filter should be changed, referring to the chart below.
Water type
Soft water
Hard water
Example: if you replace the DuoFilter in January (1) you should set the indicator to
March (3) or May (5), depending on the hardness of your local water supply: position
the number 3 or 5 opposite the index mark.
Important:
• The DuoFilter must only be used with water.
• The coffee machine still functions if the water filter is not in place.
• If the coffee machine has not been used for more than one month, rinse the
DuoFilter under running water.
• It is recommended not to leave the DuoFilter in place for more than 5 months.
• Your appliance is designed for use with the carafe type (glass or thermal) it was
purchased with. Do not use thermal carafes on coffeemakers purchased with a
glass carafe and vice versa.

CLEANING

Turn off the coffee machine and remove the plug from the outlet. Do not clean the
coffee machine when it is hot. Never immerse the coffee machine in water or put it
under running water.
• Clean the body of the coffee machine with a damp cloth or sponge.
• Open the top lid (a), remove the paper or permanent filter. The filter holder (f) can
be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack
of a dishwasher.
• We recommend washing carafes by hand with a mild detergent.
• Do not use scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffee machine.
