Making Coffee Immediately (Cont.) 

7. Do not open the tank cover when the coffee maker is operating. This will 

result in hot splashes of water.

8. You can remove the jug to serve when brewing is finished (about one 

minute after the coffee stops dripping into the jug.)

Note

: The amount of coffee you get will be less than the water you have 

put in the tank, as some water is absorbed by the ground coffee. 

9. Always turn the coffee maker off and unplug the mains cable from the 

mains socket when the coffee maker is not in use. 

The brewed coffe in the jug and the grounds in the filter are very hot. 

Handle them with care to avoiding scalding.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Be sure to unplug this appliance before cleaning. To protect against 
electrical shock, do not immerse the mains cable, mains plug or the 
appliance in water or liquids. After each use, always make sure the 
mains plug is first removed from mains socket.

1. Clean the filter, jug and jug lid after each use in hot, soapy water.

2. Wipe the appliance’s exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove 

stains. Do not use strong detergent or aggressive cleaners.

3. Water droplets may build up in the area above the filter and drip onto the 

product base during brewing. To control the dripping, wipe off the area with 
a clean, dry cloth after use.

4. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the warming plate. Never use abrasive 

cleaner to clean it.

Cleaning Mineral Deposits 

To keep your coffee maker operating efficiently, you should clean away the 
mineral deposits left by the water regularly depending on the water quality in 
your area and the frequency of use.
Fill the jug with one part of white vinegar and three parts of cold water. Then 
pour the water and vinegar mixture into the tank (do not place any coffee 
ground in the appliance), heat the water-vinegar solution as per Instruction 
Manual, repeat it until no yellow liquid comes out, then pour out the mixture, 
rinsing with tap water until no vinegar odor is left.
