5. Then switch on the appliance by pressing the on/off button. The indicator led lights up. The hot plate under the glass jug is
now switched on automatically.
6. Once the filter process has been completed, remove the glass jug from the hot plate and pour out the coffee.
7. Coffee tastes best immediately after it has been made, so do not wait too long before serving. The glass jug can immediately
be placed back on the hot plate or you can pour the coffee into a thermos jug.
Attention: This coffee machine comes with a drip stop. This means that the flow of coffee is stopped immediately when the
glass jug is removed. The filter holder is closed off, as a result of which the flow of coffee is stopped. Be sure to place back the
glass jug as quickly as possible to prevent the filter from overflowing. If you want to interrupt the coffee making process for
a longer period of time, press the on/off button to switch off the coffee machine. When making coffee, do not touch the cover
to prevent burns due to hot steam.
After use, always switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button. The indicator led switches off.
The coffee machine keeps the coffee warm for 40 minutes. After these 40 minutes the coffee machine switches off automatically.
Do not forget to remove the paper filter bag and throw it away or to remove the permanent filter and rinse it clean. Raise the
cover of the filter holder and remove the filter. Throw away the filter bag. When using the permanent filter, empty it, clean it
and use it again.
Regularly clean the coffee machine. This is not only beneficial for the life span of the appliance, it also ensures optimum use of
the appliance and, of course, good tasting coffee.
Cleaning should involve the following:
• Prior to cleaning, always check that the coffee machine is switched off and that the plug has been removed from the socket.
• Regularly clean the outside of the appliance with a slightly damp cloth and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth. Never use
abrasives. Never rinse the appliance under the tap or submerge it in water.
• Clean the glass jug with cover and the filter holder with hot water and a mild washing-up liquid. Thoroughly rinse the glass
jug with hot water. Thoroughly dry the glass jug before placing it back on the hot plate. The glass jug and filter holder may
not be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Regularly de-scale your coffee machine. The de-scaling intervals depend on the hardness of the mains water and the frequency
at which the coffee machine is being used. We recommend de-scaling the coffee machine after using one box of coffee filters
(making coffee approximately 40x). Due to scaling, the heating element can become obstructed. This causes overheating,
as a result of which the coffee machine is switched off automatically as a safety precaution and will no longer function.
The coffee machine will have to be repaired. You can de-scale the coffee machine with a special de-scaling agent for coffee
machines or with kitchen grade vinegar. If you use a special de-scaling agent for coffee machines, you must observe the
instructions on the packaging of this agent.
When using kitchen grade vinegar, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the appliance by pressing the on/off button. Remove the plug from the socket and remove all separate
components (glass jug and filter holder).
2. To remove any remaining water, hold the appliance upside down above the sink.
3. Fill half the water reservoir with cold kitchen grade vinegar and fill up with clean, cold water. Place the glass jug on the hot
plate and place the filter holder back on the appliance with an empty filter bag.
4. Switch on the appliance.
5. Allow approximately half of the vinegar/water mixture to flow through and switch off the appliance. Wait approximately
15 minutes and then switch the appliance back on. As a result the scale will be softened and removed.
