∙ To keep remaining coffee hot, replace the
glass jug (9) back onto the hotplate (10).
∙ The plate is kept hot for around 35
minutes after brewing is complete.
However, it may be turned off by pressing
the on-off button again to switch the
appliance off.
∙ If the hot-plate is switched on only after
the water is heated, it will automatically
switch off after around 40 minutes.
∙ The plastic fi lter can be removed for
cleaning (illustration V).
∙ Should you wish to start several brewing
cycles one after the other, allow the
machine to cool down for at least 5
minutes with the reservoir lid open before
re-using it. Use cold water only to re fi ll
the water reservoir.
Warning! Remember that the water
reservoir and the reservoir lid are still hot
after the brewing cycle has been completed
and hot steam may escape from the
reservoir when opening the lid (danger of
scalding)!
Cable storage
The cable storage space serves for storing
the cable and for the limitation of its length
(illustration VI).
Cleaning and care
∙ Before cleaning your coffee maker,
always make sure that the plug has been
removed from the mains supply socket.
∙ For safety reasons the coffee maker
should not be treated with water or liquids
and should never be immersed.
∙ Wipe the body of the machine with a
clean damp cloth and dry afterwards. To
prevent the valve of the water reservoir
from getting clogged, use a non- fl uffy
cloth to clean the water reservoir and the
glass jug.
∙ Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners.
∙ The glass jug (9), its lid (8), the fi lter lid (5)
and the plastic fi lter (6) may be cleaned in
hot soapy water or in the dishwasher.
Descaling
∙ In order to maintain the excellent quality
of your coffee maker, we recommend
you to descale the machine at regular
intervals.
∙ Any warranty claim will be null and
void if the appliance malfunctions
because of insuf fi cient descaling.
∙ Descaling is needed when
∙ the brewing cycle takes longer than
normal,
∙ there is build-up of deposits inside the
water reservoir or on the valve unity,
∙ the valve of the water reservoir has
become leaky.
For descaling we recommend using a
mixture of min. 0.25 litre of water and 2
tablespoonful of vinegar.
∙ Place a paper fi lter into the plastic fi lter
(without using ground coffee).
∙ Fill the cold descaling mixture into the
water reservoir (4).
∙ Switch on the machine and allow it to
complete the brewing cycle.
∙ To clean the machine after descaling
operate it twice or three times with fresh
cold water only (without using ground
coffee). Never pour the descaler into an
enamelled sink and do not use it a second
time.
