on the percolator during use.
Warming

• If the percolator pot is used for reheating cold coffee, the tube and coffee basket
must be removed first. Never reheat or keep warm less than 4 cups of coffee.
• Always unplug the mains lead after use.
Care and maintenance
• Clean the appliance carefully and regularly. A dirty appliance could pose a health
hazard. Unplug the mains lead from the wall socket and let the appliance cool off
before cleaning it.
• The appliance should be descaled regularly. Failure to do so could cause
the appliance to malfunction and be hazardous.
• Do not expose the heating element, plug or mains lead to water.
• Never immerse the percolator in water or other liquid and protect it from drips
and splashes.
• Always pull the plug out of the wall socket when the appliance is not in use.
Note: Limescale deposits can affect the performance of the appliance and even
damage it. It is therefore important that it is descaled regularly.
Descaling
1. Fill the percolator with 4½ cups of water. Insert the tube and coffee basket.
2. Let the water boil for 5 minutes to make it really hot.
3. Pull out the plug from the wall socket.
4. Add a descaling agent and leave it to work for 6 hours. Follow the instructions on
the packet of the descaling agent for the correct dosage.
5. Empty the percolator and rinse it thoroughly.
6. Boil some water in the percolator with the tube and coffee basket in place until
the indicator light comes on.
7. Switch the percolator off and unplug it from the wall socket. Empty the water out.
8. Wipe the outside of the percolator with a damp cloth to remove any splashes
which could spoil the finish.
9. The percolator is now ready to use.
Note: Use only food-grade descaling agents inside the percolator. Never boil the water
with the descaling agent mixed in.
