OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•
Unpack the coffee maker from the box, and remove all packaging. Wash the unit
before using for the first time.
•
Place the unit on a firm and stable surface. Ensure that the on/off switch is in the
“O” off position. Plug in the appliance in a wall socket.
•
Lift the lid and pour water into the water tank. Ensure that the water level is always
below the “12” mark, which is the maximum amount of water allowed. The
numbers on the water level indicator correspond with the number of cups of coffee
or tea being made.
•
Gently pull the lip on the filter to swing the filter out from underneath the lid. Place
coffee or tea in the filter that corresponds with the amount of water in the water
tank.
•
Swing the filter and filter holder back underneath the lid, and push the filter lip
gently backwards until the filter clips into place. The coffee maker is now ready for
use.
•
Switch on the coffee maker using the power switch. The power switch will light up
to indicate that the unit is turned on, and the unit will start filtering hot water
through the coffee or tea.
•
The heating plate will automatically switch on when the coffee maker is switched
on. This will assist in keeping the coffee or tea warm.
Please note
: The heating plate will become hot. Do not touch the heating plate if
the coffee maker is on.
•
Once all the water from the water tank has filtered through into the carafe switch
the coffee maker off using the power switch. Do not allow the unit to remain on if
there is no water in the water tank.
•
To heat the carafe briefly, switch the unit on with no water in the water tank, but for
short periods of time only.
•
Do not swing the filter out of place while the unit is in use. This may cause burning
due to escaping steam and hot water. It is advisable to wait for a while for the unit
to cool before removing the used ground coffee.
NOTE
: Paper filters can be used in this unit, but must be used once only and
discarded.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE
: To extend the life of your coffee maker, decalcify the unit once every two
months. You will know the unit needs to be decalcified when it takes more time to
brew coffee, or it makes a lot of noise while in use.
•
This appliance is for household use only and is not user-serviceable.
