Water filter benefits and installation

 

The water filter improves coffee flavor by significantly 
reducing chlorine and calcification (lime scale) buildup. 
Provided that the cartridge is replaced regularly (every 
two months), the water filter provides better tasting 
coffee and extends the life of your coffeemaker. Braun 
water filter cartridges are available at your local retailer or 
Braun service centers.  

 

Installing the water filter cartridge 

 

1. Unpack the water filter cartridge 

.

2. Remove the space compensator 

 from the water 

tank.

3. Insert the water filter cartridge. (Be certain to keep the 

space compensator as it must be installed in the 
water tank whenever the water filter cartridge is 
removed.)

4. The water filter should be exchanged every two 

months. To remind you, set the dial 

 to the month 

that the water filter should be replaced. 

Note: Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, after 
a long period of not using it, or after installing a new water 
filter cartridge, run the coffeemaker through one brewing 
cycle using the maximum amount of cold, fresh water 
without any ground coffee in the filter basket.

 

Setting the clock

 

After plugging in the coffeemaker, the time «00:00» will 
flash on the display  

. To set the clock, press either the 

«h» or the «min» button 

/

 for at least two seconds. 

Then hold the button or press repeatedly until you reach 
the desired time.

Press the «h» button 

 to program the hours. Press the 

«min» button 

 to program the minutes. 

Recommendation: Just before reaching the correct time, 
repeatedly press the «h» or «min» button briefly to avoid 
going past the desired time. The colon between the hours 
and minutes will flash for five seconds indicating that the 
clock has been successfully been programmed.

Note: If the power supply to the coffeemaker is 
interrupted (e.g., power failure, cord is unplugged), clock 
and programmed time are stored for 10 minutes.

 

Manual operation

 

To switch on, press the «on/off» button 

. The red pilot 

light 

 will light up indicating that the coffeemaker is 

switched on and brewing is in process. To switch off the 
coffeemaker, press the «on/off» button. The red pilot light 
will go off to indicate that the coffeemaker has been 
switched off.

 

Automatic operation

 

To program the automatic operation, press the «auto» 
button 

 until the green pilot light 

 begins to flash. 

The time «12:00» or the previously programmed time 
appears on the display.

Then program the time for automatic operation by 
pressing the «h» and «min» buttons 

/

 as described 

under «Setting the clock». After programming is 
completed, the green pilot light 

 will go off after five 

seconds.
To activate the automatic operation, briefly press the 
«auto» button 

. The green pilot light 

 lights up and 

the preset brewing time is quickly shown on the display

brewing process begins, the green pilot light 

 goes off 

and the red pilot light 

 lights up to indicate that the 

coffeemaker is in operation.
