en
the coffee can be optimised by pressing the aroma button
(Q). This function enables a process of percolation which
releases the water in the filter more slowly. filtering a little
at a time improves the flavour and aroma of the coffee. To
enable the function, press the aroma button (the light on
the button comes on). To disable the function, press the
button again. You are recommended to use the aroma
button when you do not want to make a full jug of coffee.
•
In models with glass jug:
if you leave the button
pressed after percolation has finished, the plate will keep
the coffee at the ideal temperature. The appliance goes off
automatically 40 minutes after coffee delivery ends.
•
Models with thermal jug
: to pour the coffee, turn the lid
to the position shown in fig. 10. To remove the lid comple-
tely, turn the lid to the position shown in fig. 11. after per-
colation has ended, the appliance goes off automatically.
Please note:
removing the jug before all the coffee re-
quested has been delivered does not interrupt coffee making,
but merely blocks flow into the jug. if you want to pour out a
little coffee immediately, you should do so as rapidly as possible
in order to avoid the coffee overflowing.

Descaling
if the water in your area is hard, limescale builds up over time.
These deposits may affect correct operation of the appliance.

flashes on the aroma button (Q), (about every 60 cycles) you
have to descale the appliance. To reset the descaling alarm press
