Advice
o
For best results, prepare 15 to 35 cups of coffee at one time.
o
Remove filter basket and coffee ground immediately after brewing process has ended. This also
contributes to the preservation of the coffee flavour.
o
Before brewing another load of coffee, wash out the coffee maker with cold water in order to cool
it off.
o
Drops coming from the removal of the filter basket or the coffee ground may be caught with the lid
of the device.
o
When reheating coffee, remove the standpipe and filter basket before activating
the device.
6. Cleaning and maintenance
6.1 Safety advice
o
Before beginning with repair or cleaning works make sure the device has been disconnected
from power socket (pull the power plug!!!) and has cooled down.
o
Do not use any acid agents and make sure no water ingresses the device.
o
To protect yourself from electric shock, never immerse the device, its cables and the plug in
water or other liquids.
CAUTION!
The device is not suited for direct washing via water jets. Therefore, you must not use any
kind of pressure water jet for cleaning the device!
6.2 Cleaning and descaling
Daily cleaning
o
Clean the device after every use.
o
Clean the filter basket, submersion tube and lid with warm water and a mild cleaning agent
especially for coffee makers. Dry the elements with a soft cloth.
o
Clean the water reservoir of sediment and leftover coffee. A mild scouring agent and sponge for
pots may be used.
o
Wipe the outside of the coffee maker with a moist cloth, then dry.
o
To clean the spout, fill the coffee maker with warm water and open the spout to rinse it.
o
If the device is used for heating or boiling water take special care to clean thoroughly after each
use.
Weekly cleaning
o
If the device is used daily, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the spout mechanism once weekly.
If the device is used less often it does not need to be cleaned so often.
o
Unscrew the tap lid for cleaning, detach the silicone-cone and wash the parts with warm soap
water. Use a small bottlebrush in order to clean the inside of the tap and the connection pieces to
the coffee maker.
CAUTION!
You must not insert the brush into the assembled tap, as this would prick the silicone-cone.
