flask is extremely sensitive, it may
not be damaged.
Putting into operation
Before first use or when the appli-
ance has not worked for some time,
make 2 operations without coffee
powder and with max. water filling,
then rinse filter and jug with hot water.
Preparing coffee
Pour cold water into the water con-
tainer. The number of cups which
are to brew can be seen on the water
level indicator. The water level indi-
cation shows the number of brewed
cups with 125 ml of coffee each.
Swivel the filter holder to the front
and insert the paper filter 1 x 4 fol-
ded along the embossed line. Make
sure that the filter is within the filter
holder by exerting light pressure.
Fill in the necessary quantity of coffee.
Use approximately 5 - 7 grams of
medium fine ground coffee per cup
and according to personal prefe-
rence. Put the thermal jug with the
closed brewing lid under the filter.
Connect plug with a safety socket
and switch on.
The operation lamp shows the start
of the brewing process.
After completing the process, switch
off the appliance and remove the
carafe. The Drip stop prevents that
the coffee continues to drip.
Before making new coffee, the appli-
ance has to cool down for some
minutes.
Soluble coffee can be used in the
filter without paper.
Prepare tea by hanging the tea bags
into jug. The jug must be used with
the empty filter.
Cleaning and
maintenance
Disconnect the appliance from the
socket and let the coffee maker cool
down. Never immerse the appliance
in water. Use a damp cloth with wa-
shing-up liquid and rub dry after-
wards.
Filter can be cleaned under running
water or in a dish washer.
The jug is to be cleared only with
warm water in the inside after each
use. Never put it in a dish washer.
In case after some time there should
be a film inside the thermal jug you
can use a pill suitable for cleaning
dentures to get it off.Fill in water plus
the pill, and leave it some hours.
Then rinse it several times.
Do not use abrasive or scouring
agents.
Descaling
Like other hot water appliances the
coffee maker has to be descaled
periodically. A considerable longer
brewing time and a higher noise
level are an indication that the appli-
ance needs to be descaled.
The following indications are guide-
lines which refer to a daily use in the
household.

Ca and MG Ions
You can ask for the degree of hard-
ness in your residential area at the
responsible waterworks or the local
administration.
Use a standard descaling agent
according to the application instruc-
tions.
Use a paper filter and put the jug in
the coffee maker. Pour some desca-
ling agent, diluted according to the
application instructions up to the
maximum number of cups. If during
the brewing process the appliance is
switched off several times for some
minutes, the descaling agent can
work best.
Repeat this process with a new
descaling agent each until the dis-
turbing noise is removed.
Never pour hot descaling solution
into the water container.
Attention: After descaling it is neces-
sary to operate the appliance 2-3
times with a full container of water as
done before the first use.
Damages caused by the non-obser-
vance of these instructions are not
covered by the guarantee.
