NOTE: Make sure that the on/off switch can be moved without any problem and
that the lid (6) is closed properly. Otherwise the appliance will not switch off
automatically when the water boils.
Before you switch on the kettle (11) again, let it cool down for 15 to 20 seconds. To start
the boiling process again, push the on/off switch (8) back down again.

Coffee maker
Hints and tips:
To check the desired water quantity find the cup markings on the water tank (15) and
on the glass pot (18). The markings correspond with the fresh water quantity. The
amount of coffee produced later will be a little less because the coffee powder absorbs
water and water evaporates.
Always use non-fizzy, fresh, cold mineral or tap water. Never fill the water tank (15)
with milk, ready coffee, tea, sugar etc.
Never use hot water.
Thanks to the practical permanent filter (20) you do not need to use paper filters with
this appliance.
You will achieve the best tasting coffee with a clean coffee maker. Clean it regularly as
described in chapter 7.
Store unused coffee powder in a cool, dry place to preserve the flavour. Seal up an open
packet of coffee properly and put it in the refrigerator. This will keep the coffee fresh.
Do not reuse already used coffee powder a second time as this will give the coffee
greatly reduced flavour.
It is not recommended to reheat cold coffee because its taste can not be compared with
freshly made coffee.
Clean the coffee maker when you can see oil residue on the surfaces. This comes from
the coffee powder. The more the coffee has been roasted, the more oil it contains.
1. Lift up the lid (16) of the water tank (15).
2. Use the glass pot (18) to pour the desired amount of clear, cold tap water in the water
tank (15) (do not fill above the MAX fill level).
3. Pull out the removable filter holder (22) and put coffee powder in the permanent filter
(20) – generally one tea spoon per cup.
4. Put the filter holder back in again fully.
5. Put the glass pot (18) with the lid (19) on the hot plate (17).
6. Start the brewing process with the on/off switch (24). The red signal lamp in the switch
lights up and the brewing process begins.
7. Around one minute after the end of the brewing process you can remove the glass
pot (18) and pour the coffee.
NOTE: You can stop the brewing process at any time by pressing the on/off
switch (24).
NOTE: You can remove the glass pot (18) at any time and pour coffee, the drip
stop (21) prevents dripping. A period of 30 seconds must not be exceeded,
however, as otherwise the filter holder may overflow.
After the brewing process the hot plate (17) keeps the coffee hot in the glass pot (18)
until you move the on/off switch (24) to off. Your coffee will taste best when it is freshly
brewed, however.
Switch off the coffee maker when you no longer need it.
