Putting into operation
 Remove all packaging material from the appliance and put it on a heat and water resistant, stable and
flat surface.
 Before first use and after the appliance has not been used for a longer time, operate the appliance two
or three times with maximum water content and without coffee powder. Then rinse the filter and the jug
with hot water.
 Do not leave the switched on or still hot appliance unattended.
Brewing Coffee
 Open the lid at the water tank upwards and fill it with cold water. The water level indicator shows the
number of brewed cups with 125 ml of coffee each.
 The water container is removable for easy filling under the tab.
 Swivel the filter to the left side. Insert into the filterholder a paper filter of type 1x2 and fold the sealed
edges. The paper filter should not stand over the rim of filterholder. Therefore the paper filter can be
slightly pressed down by hand.
 Put desired amount of pre-ground coffee in the paper filter. Per cup approx. 5 - 7 grams filter-fine grind-
ed coffee.
 Swivel the filter back into the appliance until it is klicked hearable at the water tank. Keep the filter
closed throughout the coffee preparation process.
 Put the glass jug with closed lid in the appliance. Put the plug in an earthed wall socket and press the
ON / OFF push button. The pilot light indicates the start of the brewing cycle.
 Let the appliance cool down for some minutes before you start brewing coffee again. Fill the glass jug
only in cold condition.
 The brewed coffee can be kept warm in the glass jug on the warming plate at serving temperature. The
appliance switches off automatically after approx. 40 minutes, the pilot light goes off.
Attention: Do not leave the empty glass jug in the switched on appliance. The glass jug may get very
hot and can break.
 Switch the appliance off after use and pull the plug.
Cleaning and maintenance
 Pull the plug and wait until appliance is cooled down.
 Never immerse the appliance in water. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth only. Clean the filter
insert and glass jug in hot water with some washing-up liquid.
Attention: Let the glass jug cool down before cleaning.
 Do not use caustic or scouring cleaning agents.
Descaling
 The appliance needs to be descaled periodically to guarantee optimal brewing results for a long time.
Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the frequency of use, descaling
needs to be done on a regular basis to guarantee optimal brewing results. Signs of scale are lengthen-
1
ing of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing.
The appliance should be descaled after each thirty to fourty brewing cycles.
2
 For descaling a white vinegar solution may be used containing vinegar and water in a mixing proportion
of 1 to 3.
3
 Fill the water tank up to the maximum amount with the vinegar solution and switch the appliance on.
 Let the appliance run until the amount of one cup has been brewed and switch the appliance of.
4
 Wait for up to 30 minutes for the vinegar solution to descale the appliance.
 Switch the appliance on and let the appliance complete the brewing cycle.

 Let the appliance complete two to three more brewing cycles with fresh, cold water (without coffee
powder) to remove all vinegar residues.
