As long as the green Charcoal Filter
Light is on, the machine monitors
time and the number of brewings.
The green charcoal filter light will
start blinking either after 6 weeks or
after the Coffee Brewing Button has
been turned on 60 times (Fig. 2, N)
whichever comes first, reminding you
to replace the cartridge:
If you make coffee once a day, the
filter light will start flashing after 6
weeks. If you make coffee twice a
day, the light will flash after 30 days.
This will help you to plan the right
amount of cartridges.
Attention:
When you unplug the
machine for more than 10 seconds or
if you have a power failure, the
electronic indicator loses its memory.
Then it is best to replace the filter 6
weeks after first use.
Caution:
Once the cartridge is activated
you should never use it for longer
than six weeks. Harmful bacteria
build-up may occur. Unused
cartridges can be stored indefinitely.
Replacement cartridges
are available
through your local Capresso dealer or
our website: www.capresso.com.
3b. Replacing the Cartridge /
Resetting the Filter Indicator
Remove the cartridge from the water
container (Fig. 3), twist and open the
holder and discard the old cartridge.
Replace with new cartridge (Fig. 4)
and close the filter holder securely.
Insert the assembly back into the
water tank (Fig. 3) and make sure it is
inserted properly otherwise the water
container lid will not close completely.
Activate the charcoal filter (chapter 3a).
While the green light is still blinking,
push and hold the Charcoal Filter
Button for a few seconds until the
light stops blinking and is illuminated
again. Now the indicator starts counting
again.
4. The Proper Sequence for Making
Coffee
Coffee makers produce very hot water.
If you follow the sequence as described
below you will avoid possible accidents
which might cause severe injuries and
burns.
1. Remove carafe from machine.
2. Open water container lid (Fig. 1, A)
and pour water into the water
container.
Caution
: Make sure
the water level does not exceed
the MAX setting (Fig. 6). If you fill
too much water into the tank the
carafe may overflow with hot coffee.
3. Make sure the filter holder (Fig. 1,C)
sits firmly in the Filter Holder
Housing (Fig. 1,F). Push the tab of
the filter holder down (Fig. 8) to
make sure the filter holder sits
firmly in the Filter Holder Housing.
If the filter holder is not snapped
into the housing, the drip stop
in the filter holder might not open
during brewing and hot water and
grinds could overflow and leak
from the machine.
4. Insert filter paper (chapter 5b)
or a GoldTone Filter (chapter 5a).
5. Add the correct amount of ground
coffee (chapter 5c).
6. Close the water container lid.
7. Make sure the thermal carafe is
empty and the lid of the thermal
carafe is completely closed (Fig. 11).
Insert the carafe into the machine.
8. Turn the machine on (Fig. 2, N).
9. Never open the water container lid
as long as coffee is brewing. Hot
water could spill out causing burns.
Wait until the brewing noise stops.
10. Immediately after brewing is finished
there could still be hot water in
the filter holder passing through
the ground coffee. This can take
1 to 3 minutes depending on how
much coffee you used and how
fine the coffee was ground.
