STARTING THE BREWING CYCLE MANUALLY
WARNING
–
Before starting a brewing cycle, always ensure that the appli-
ance is prepared for operation completely and correctly
(see: ‘Preparing the Appli-
ance for Operation’). Otherwise hot water or coffee could run out causing hazards
due to hot liquids, electric shock, or shortcut. During operation the exterior of the steel
carafe will get hot. Only touch the steel carafe at the handles when it is hot to avoid
scalds. During operation, the base plate will be hot. Do not touch the base plate.
CAUTION
– Do not place the hot steel carafe on any heat-sensitive surfaces
to avoid damage. Do not place any heat-sensitive objects on the base plate duri-
ng operation or shortly thereafter.
IMPORTANT -
After activating the timer, the brewing cycle is going to be started
automatically at the programmed starting time. You do not have to do anything
else (see: ‘Using the Timer’). With the timer activated, nevertheless you can start
the brewing cycle at once or de-activate the timer (see: ‘De-Activating the Timer’
and ‘Starting the Brewing Cycle Immediately’).
NOTE
To pour a cup of coffee, you may take out the steel carafe for a short time even duri-
ng operation. The drip-stop valve closes the filter basket to avoid dripping of coffee,
while the steel carafe is not in place. At the maximum after 15 seconds place the
steel carafe back onto the base plate to avoid overflow of the filter basket.
CAUTION
– The drip stop valve could get blocked by coffee powder. Thus,
when taking out the steel carafe, while the brewing head is still dripping, ensure that
the drip stop valve closes the outlet of the filter basket completely. Place the steel cara-
fe back onto the base plate after max. 15 seconds. Otherwise, overflow could occur
and hot coffee could run onto the base plate and under the appliance.
1. Prepare the appliance for operation as described above: assemble the filter sys-
tem (filter holder, filter basket, filter, and splash shield), fill the bean hopper or
filter, push the filter holder under the brewing head, fill the water tank, place the
empty steel carafe onto the base plate, enter the desired settings (see: ‘Using
Whole Coffee Beans’ and ‘Preparing the Appliance for Operation’).
