BEFORE FIRST USE
When you use your appliance for the first time, pour fresh water
•
into the water tank (without coffee) and switch on the appliance.
Once all the water has passed through, switch off the appliance
•
and let it cool down. When it is cold enough repeat the process 3
times with fresh water.
PREPARATION OF COFFEE
Open the lid of the water tank and pour the desired volume of
•
water in it. The water level can be read off the water level
indicator. Never exceed the maximum level indicated.
Insert filter paper or permanent filter (depending on the model) in
•
the filter holder and add the desired quantity of ground coffee.
Never forget to close the water tank lid before switching on the
•
coffee maker.
Put the jug with closed lid on the hotplate.
•
Switch on the coffee maker. The pilot light will be illuminated,
•
indicating that your appliance is in use. Thanks to the keep warm
function, your coffee stays warm as long as the appliance is
switched on. Note that the appliance will be switched on as long
as you do not switch it off manually. We advise you not to let the
appliance switched on for more than 2 hours and make sure that
you never let an empty jug on the appliance.
When you remove the jug from the appliance, a non-drip valve
•
will automatically operate to stop any drops of coffee falling onto
the hotplate. When you put the jug back into place, the non-drip
valve opens automatically and allows remaining coffee to filter
through into the jug.
Wait until the brewing process is finished and the filter is empty
•
before removing the jug.
Practical hints: When the water tank is empty, wait a few more
•
minutes, as some water might still drip out of the filter before
removing the jug.
