Before using for the first time
• Place your coffee maker on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface away from water splashes and any
sources of heat.
• Run the coffee maker for the first time without coffee, rinsing the circuit with 0.5 litres or 1 litre of
water (depending on model).
Making coffee
(Follow illustrations 1 to 8)
• Plug the coffee maker into a mains socket with the same voltage as that indicated on the rating
plate of the appliance.
• Remove the water tank, fill it with cold water from the tap, put it back in place at the rear of the
coffee maker.
• The marks on the tank show the volume of water required for the number of cups desired.
• Fit a coffee filter (filter paper n°4 or permanent filter) into the filter holder. Add one tablespoonful
of ground coffee for each cup. If you prefer your coffee slightly stronger or weaker, adjust the
quantity of coffee to suit your taste.
• Fit the filter holder onto its support and close the lid.
• Place the jug onto the hot plate.
• Switch on. The "ON" indicator light shows that the machine is operating.
• If you want to serve a cup of coffee before the end of the cycle, simply remove the jug from the
hot plate. The coffee will stop flowing automatically. Return the jug to the plate quickly so that the
coffee may continue flowing.
• At the end of a cycle, wait for around one minute until the water in the filter stops flowing into the
jug. We recommend leaving the lid on the jug so that it is easier to use and so that the coffee stays
at the right temperature for longer.
• To keep the coffee hot, place the jug on the hot plate after serving the coffee. The hot plate
automatically stays at the ideal temperature as long as the coffee machine is switched on.
• Switch off when the jug is empty or when the appliance is not in use.
• If you want to prepare another coffee cycle, switch off the appliance and wait for 10 minutes so
that the heating elements can cool down.
Important : if you do not let the appliance cool down before preparing another coffee cycle, the
water in the tank may become too hot and a jet of steam may come out, causing burns.
Cleaning
• To dispose of the used coffee grounds, remove the filter holder (e) from the coffee maker.
• Unplug the appliance.
