SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
- A short power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord.
- Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use.
- If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, grounding type cord, the extension should be a GROUNDING
TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter-top or table top
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
- Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace
your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Read this instruction booklet carefully before installing
and using the appliance. This is the only way to ensure
the best results and maximum safety for the user.

bEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
1 Wash the parts: see ‘care and cleaning’.
2 Run two full tanks of water (without coffee) through
the coffee maker to clean it out. See ‘How to make drip
coffee”.
HOW TO MAKE DRIP COFFEE
1 Lift up the water tank lid.
2 Fill the tank with the desired amount of water. The water
level must be between the 2 and 10 cup marks. Do not fill
above the MAX level.
Use cold water. We recommend using filtered water as
it reduces limescale and prolongs the life of your coffee
maker. Never use warm or carbonated water.
3 Lift the filter holder lid using the handle at the front of
the coffee maker. Ensure the filter holder is positioned
correctly.
