3. Pour the desired quantity of water into the glass
pot 3 . NEVER fill it with more water than to the
MAX marking, and never with less than to the
MIN marking.
Important!:
To avoid scalds/burns and electric shocks, ensure
that water does not overflow from the glass pot
3
.
4. Take hold of the brew system and pull the water
riser pipe w with the sieve e upwards.
5. Place the necessary amount of tea or number of
teabags in the brew chamber q .
Important:
Ensure that no labels or teabag strings remain in the
appliance.
6. Replace the brew system in the glass pot 3 .
Ensure that the water riser pipe w sits firmly in
the recess on the bottom of the glass pot
3
. The
brew chamber
q
must be positioned with the
flattened side towards the handle
2
.
7. Close the appliance lid
1
.
8. Replace the glass pot
3
back on to the
base 5 .
9. Insert the plug into a wall power socket and place
the On/Off switch 8 at the position “I”. The
control lamp 4 and the On/Off switch 8 light
up.
The water is now boiled and forced upwards
through the water riser pipe
w to flow through the
brew chamber q and then back into the glass pot 3 .
After the water has boiled, the appliance automati-
cally switches itself into the keep-warm function. The
control lamp
4
goes out, only the On/Off switch
8
continues to glow. As soon as the water cools, the
Tea Automat warms the water back up. The control
lamp
4
lights up again during this rewarming pro-
cess.
Important:
As the water is fed back through the brewing system
during the rewarming, after the first brewing process
you should remove the brew system from the glass
pot
3
.
Risk of personal injury!
The brew system is very hot! There is a risk of being
burnt! Use oven gloves when you take hold of the
brew system.
Note:
The longer the brew is kept warm, the greater is
the amount of fluid evaporated, and thus the brew
becomes stronger.
We therefore recommend that the tea be drunk as
soon as possible after brewing.
You can interrupt the brew process at any time:
For this, place the On/Off switch
8
back into the
position “0”. The brew process is finished.
If you remove the glass pot
3
from the base
5
,
the brew process is interrupted.
Important!:
Always first let the glass pot
3
cool down before
you pour in fresh cold water for another brewing
process! Otherwise, tension may be created in the
glass pot
3 and it could shatter.
Overheating protection
In the event of overheating, thermal protection switches
the heating element off inside the appliance. The
On/Off switch
8 remains lit, the appliance however
does not continue to heat up.
The thermal protection is activated if no or not enough
water is in the glass pot
3
and the appliance is
switched on anyway.
