6 Don’t remove the jug until brewing

has finished. The hotplate will keep
your coffee hot, but the sooner you
drink it, the better it will taste.

7 When the jug’s empty, switch off

by pressing the on/off switch. Let
the machine cool down before
cleaning.

If you haven’t used the machine for
a while, run one lot of water
through it (without coffee) to clean
it out. Fill the tank to the top cup
mark when you do this.

Never put the jug in the
microwave.

descaling

You’ll know when limescale has
built up because your coffee will
take longer to come through.
When this happens it’s time to
descale.

to descale

1 Buy a suitable descaler.
2 Descale the machine.

3 After descaling, run several lots of

water through the machine to
clean it out. Fill the tank to the top

to make coffee

1 Pour water into the tank. The

water must be between the top
and bottom cup marks. Then close
the lid.

Use 

cold

water. We recommend

using filtered water from a
Kenwood Water Filter as it reduces
limescale. Never use warm or fizzy
water.

If you use the jug to fill the tank,
look at the tank marks, not the jug
marks. They’re slightly different to
allow for the fact that some of the
water gets absorbed by the coffee.

2 Open the filter door.
3 Add either a permanent filter or a

paper filter. Add the coffee, use
the spoon provided (approximately
1 level spoon per large cup). Then
close the filter door.

4 Put the jug on the hotplate.
5 Plug in and switch on, the light will

glow.
