3/ USING YOUR APPLIANCE

A. Making coffee
• Open the reservoir lid and fill the reservoir with fresh, cold water up to the level corresponding to
the desired number of cups of coffee.
Do not exceed the maximum level of the reservoir.
• Open the filter holder lid and place the paper filter into the filter holder.
• Fill the paper filter with the required amount of ground coffee and close the filter holder lid. We
suggest one level tablespoonful of coffee per cup of coffee. Once you have used the coffee maker
several times, you will be able to adjust the amount of coffee according to your taste.
• Place the jug with its lid duly in place, onto the hot plate. The jug will open the anti-drip valve when
placed correctly onto the plate; otherwise the filtered coffee will not pass into the jug and the filter
may overflow.
• Plug the appliance in and turn the coffee maker on by pressing the on/off switch. The indicator light
will come on. The water will begin to filter through the coffee maker, pouring the coffee into the jug.
• Once the coffee is ready, the hot plate will keep the coffee hot by means of the hot plate.
• Turn the coffee maker off by pressing the on/off switch and unplug the coffee maker.
The coffee maker is fitted with an anti-drip system; this prevents the coffee from dripping
onto the plate when the jug is not properly in place or when
B. Tips for good coffee
To give the coffee a better flavour and aroma, we advise you to use freshly ground coffee.
Medium-ground coffee should be used; it should not be too finely ground. Store the coffee in
a dry place. Once the packet of coffee has been opened, it can be kept well-sealed in the
refrigerator in order to maintain its aroma. This coffee maker will keep the coffee hot by means of the
hot plate, but for best results, drink the coffee as soon as it has been made.
