steam escaping through the water outlet.
Making coffee
✦
Filling with water:
Open the water container lid, fi ll the container with the desired quantity of
water and replace the lid.
✦
Inserting the paper fi lter:
Open the swing-out fi lter sideways and insert a size-4 paper fi lter into the
fi lter insert, fi rst folding down the perforated sides of the fi lter.
✦
Filling with ground coff ee:
For each regular-sized cup (125ml), a measure of about 6 g (= 1½ - 2 teaspoons)
of medium or fi nely ground coff ee will be required. Close the swing-out fi lter
afterwards.
✦
Preparing the glass carafe:
Fit the lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance. If
correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the fi lter
holder during the brewing cycle.
✦
Starting the brewing cycle:
Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off switch to switch
the coff ee maker on. The fi ltration cycle starts and the water passes through
the fi lter.
✦
Removing the glass carafe:
Wait until all the water has passed through the fi lter before the carafe is
removed from the appliance.
✦
Switching off the coff ee maker:
The coff ee may be kept warm inside the carafe by leaving it standing on the
hot-plate. The plate is kept warm until the appliance is switched off . Always
switch off the appliance after use and remove the plug from the wall socket.
Descaling
✦
Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the
frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need
descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits) on a regular basis to warrant proper
functioning.
✦
A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing
indicate that descaling of the coff ee maker has become necessary.
✦
An excessive build-up of lime deposits is very diffi cult to remove, even when
strong descaling agents are used. It may also cause the brewing system to
leak. We therefore strongly recommend descaling the appliance after each
thirty to forty brewing cycles. For descaling, a vinegar solution may be used
as follows:
