tIpS For MAKInG tHe BeSt CoFFee
• A clean coffee maker is essential for making delicious coffee. Clean the appliance regularly as described
under ‘CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE’.
• Always use fresh, cold water in the coffee maker.
• Store unused coffee beans or filter coffee in a cool, dry place. Close their packaging well after opening
and store them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
• For an optimal coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and grind them only just before making the coffee.
• Do not reuse coffee, as this will greatly reduce the taste of the coffee.
• It is not recommended to heat coffee, because coffee has its optimal taste immediately after cooking.
• Clean the device if excessive oil formation occurs. Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed black
coffee are due to the extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oil formation can occur more frequently if
heavily roasted coffee is used.

1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove the plug from the wall socket, and if necessary allow the appliance to cool.

clean under running water. If used, dispose of the paper coffee filter. When reinserting, pay attention to
the drip stop: it must pass through the recess in the filter housing.
4. Clean the coffee grinder with a brush.
5. Clean the glass pot in hot washing-up water, or put it in a dishwasher.
6. Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth. Make sure no moisture gets
into the appliance.
• Never immerse the appliance, plug or power cord in water. Never put the appliance in a dishwasher.
Only the loose parts may be immersed in water.
• Never use corrosive or scouring cleaning agents or sharp objects (such as knives or hard brushes)
to clean the appliance.
CleAnInG And MAIntenAnCe - descaling
Limescale can reduce the efficiency of your coffee maker. Limescale is common in areas with hard water.
We advise the use of a suitable descaling agent to remove any scale. Always follow the instructions for the
descaling agent. The amount of scale will be reduced when you use a water softener.
