BEFORE USE
Check whether the mains voltage in your home corresponds to that of the appliance. Use only an
earthed socket for this appliance.
The coffee machine has a stainless steel pot and can be used to make up to 6 cups of coffee. It has
a handy swivel filter with drip shield and an on-off switch with a pilot lamp.
Place the PRINCESS CLASSIC COFFEEMAKER on a stable, firm table or worktop so that the
appliance cannot be easily knocked over.
USING THE COFFEE MACHINE
Before using for the first time, fill the PRINCESS CLASSIC COFFEEMAKER with water and no
coffee and switch on to clean the inside of the appliance. Rinse the can and the filter holder.
Fill the reservoir with cold water, rotate the filter outwards (grip the right underside and pull it
towards you) and place a filter bag (size 101) with ground coffee in the filter holder. Place the can
on the hotplate and switch on the coffee machine. Use 2 to 3 full measures of coffee for a full can
of water. This will make the coffee average strength.
ATTENTION: After making coffee, allow the machine to cool down for at least five minutes before
making a new pot.
KEEPING THE COFFEE HOT
As long as the PRINCESS CLASSIC COFFEEMAKER is switched on, the coffee will be kept hot.
The stainless steel can does not have an insulating function but is kept at the right temperature by
the hotplate. This means that the outside of the can will get hot, so it should not be touched when
the coffee machine is switched on.
CLEANING
FIRST UNPLUG THE APPLIANCE
Rinse the coffee can and the filter holder. These parts are not dishwasher-safe. The outside can be
wiped with a damp cloth.
DESCALING
The coffee machine will have a longer life if it is regularly descaled. This should be done once a
month, or even twice a month in regions with very hard water. Hard water is considered to be water
with a hardness of more than 20º DH, which is a measuring scale for water hardness. Your water
company will be able to tell you how hard your water is. The appliance should also be descaled
immediately if:
• It makes bubbling noises;
• Making coffee takes longer than normal;
• Water remains in the reservoir after making coffee.
Almost all available descaling agents can be used to descale the machine. The
applications for which an agent is intended are stated on the packaging. Exceptions
are sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid, which should never be used for descaling
purposes.
