Always grind your coffee immedia-
tely before brewing to retain the
full aroma.
➔
Tap the machine gently a cou-
ple of times before removing the
full ground coffee container – this
ensures that any ground coffee
left in the grinding mechanism
falls down into the container befo-
re it is removed.
➔
Never
fill the ground coffee
container over the “max.” mark.
Excess ground coffee can be
sucked back up into the grinding
mechanism, cause overheating
and damage the machine!
➔
Do not grind for longer than
3 minutes without a break, as this
causes the machine parts to heat
up and some of the coffee aroma
will be lost.
➔
If you find the coffee produced
by your coffee machine too thin,
or that it runs through too quickly,
select a finer grinder setting. If
the brewing process is too slow,
select a coarser setting.
➔
Dark, oily beans require a grinder
setting 1 or 2 levels coarser.
If you clean your machine regularly,
it will last a long time. Please note
that you should clean your machine
more regularly if you use dark, oily
coffee beans than if you use light,
drier coffee beans.
➔
Always unplug the machine be-
fore cleaning.
➔
Never put water or other liquids
in the machine!
➔
Remove the bean container and
clean the grinding chamber below
as often as possible with a paint-
brush or similar tool to prevent oily
coffee residues from building up
(to do this, please remove the upper
part of the grinding mechanism,
holding it by the rubber seal).
➔
Please clean the seal between
the bean container and grinding
mechanism using a paintbrush or
similar tool.
➔
Clean the outside of the machi-
ne with a damp cloth – please
ensure that all machine parts are
clean and dry before the next use.
