maker will stop dripping automatically. If the serve time exceeds 30
seconds, the coffee will overflow the funnel.
7. Upon completion of the brewing coffee, that is, one minute later
after the coffee stops dripping out, you can remove the carafe,
pour and serve.
Note: The brewed coffee you get will be slightly less than the water
you have added as some water is absorbed by coffee powder. DO
NOT touch the cover, warming plate and so on when operating as
they are very hot.
8. When the process is finished, if you do not want to serve
immediately, keep the switch on; the coffee can be kept warm in
the warming plate for 40 minutes and the coffee maker will be cut
off automatically after 40 minutes. For an optimum coffee taste,
serve it just after brewing.
9. Always turn the coffee maker off and disconnect the power supply
after use.
Note: Be careful when pouring the coffee. coffee will be very hot
after brewing and you might get burnt.
Hints for great-tasting coffee
A clean coffee maker is essential for making great-tasting coffee.
Regularly clean the coffee maker as specified in the "Maintenance"
section. Always use fresh, cold water in the coffee maker.
Store unused coffee powder in a cool, dry place. After opening a
package of coffee powder, reseal it tightly and store it in a refrigerator
to maintain its freshness.
For an optimum coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and finely grind
them just before brewing.
Do not reuse coffee powder since this will greatly reduce the coffee'
flavour. Reheating coffee is not recommended as coffee is at its peak
flavour immediately after brewing.
Clean the coffee maker when over-extraction causes oiliness. Small
oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee are due to the
extraction of oil from the coffee powder. Oiliness may occur more
frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used.

2.3. Maintenance

CAUTION: Always unplug the coffee maker from the electrical outlet
and allow the warming plate to cool completely before cleaning it.
Never immerse the unit or power cord into water or any other liquid
for cleaning.
1. Clean all detachable parts after each use in hot, sudsy water.
2. Wipe the product's exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to
remove stains.

3. Water droplets may build up in the area above the funnel and
drip onto the coffee maker's base during brewing. To control the
dripping, wipe off the area with a clean, dry cloth after each use of
the coffee maker.
4. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the warming plate. Never use
abrasive cleaner to clean it.
5. Replace all parts and keep for next use.
Removing mineral deposits
To keep your coffee maker operating efficiently, you should periodically
clean away the mineral deposits left by the water according to the
water quality in your area and the frequency of use. We recommend
descaling your coffee maker as follows, using a solution of white
vinegar and cold water. A solution of two tablespoons (30 mL) of
white vinegar in one carafe of cold water works best.
1. Fill the tank with the vinegar solution to the maximum level as
indicated on water gauge.
2. Insert the glass carafe onto the warming plate.
3. Make sure the paper filter (without coffee powder) and funnel are
assembled in place.
4. Switch on the coffee maker and allow it to "brew" descaling
solution.
5. After "brew" one-cup solution, switch off the coffee maker.
6. Leave the solution for 15 minutes and repeat steps 3-5.
7. Switch on the coffee maker and run off the solution until the water
tank is completely empty.
8. Rinse by operating the coffee maker with water at least 3 times.
