2. MAKING COFFEE

2.1 Filling the Water Container

• Open the water container lid and

remove the water container (fig.1; C).

• Fill the water container to the

required marking with fresh, cold
water (see fig. 10). 

Caution:

Never

fill water container above the “Max
Line”—this is the line between the
number “10” and the letters MAX. If
you fill more water into the water
container the stainless steel carafe
could overflow with hot coffee

which can cause severe injuries

.

• Replace the water tank and close

the water tank lid. When filling the
water tank to brew coffee you will
automatically have water left over for
frothing milk (see section 5). 

ATTENTION:

Make sure the tank is

completely inserted so that the two
valves connect with the machine. 

2.2 Filling with Ground Coffee

a. Push the button to open the swing-

out filter (see fig. 4). On the inside
you will find a removable GoldTone
filter and a removable filter holder.

Caution:

The handle of the filter

holder has to sit over the raised
plastic part of the filter (see fig. 5). If
the filter holder is not inserted prop-
erly, it is not possible to close the
swing-out filter back into machine.

b. Fill the GoldTone filter with ground

coffee. If you would rather use a
paper filter, use size 4. Please follow
the instructions on the filter paper
box for proper use of filter paper.

c.

Important: Coffee Amounts

Never use more than the amounts
indicated in the following chart.
Using more coffee than indicated
could result in an overflow of ground
coffee running into the carafe and
blocking the drip stop function.

d. Close the swing-out filter until it

firmly clicks in place (see fig. 1; J).

2.3 Placing the Stainless Steel Carafe

• Place the carafe lid on the carafe

with the large dot facing the pouring
spout (see fig. 6). 

• Turn clockwise approx. 1

turns to

firmly close lid. Although the lid is
closed, the coffee can flow into the
carafe through a one-way opening
device on the lid.

Attention:

Please note that the lid

must be on the carafe during brew-
ing to activate the drip stop. 

If you

lose the lid, you can not brew cof-
fee.

Please call 1-800-767-3554 to

order a new lid.

• Place the carafe on the platform.

Make sure the swing-out filter is
closed with the filter holder in place.

2.4 Turning the Coffee Maker On

Push the on/off button (see fig. 2; P)
and the red on light (see fig. 2; M) will
illuminate, indicating that the brewing
process is starting.

Caution:

Never open the swing-out

filter while brewing coffee. Wait until
the brewing process is completed.
Remove the carafe first, and then
open the swing-out filter. This pre-
vents spilling.
