- After 5 to 12 minutes, according to the
quantity of water, your infusion/brew will
have reached the correct temperature.
• Note: the brew can be stopped manually
to obtain a cooler and/or less strongly
brewed drink. To do so, press the “8”
button.
CLEANINg AND
MAINTENANCE
The combination of (limescale) scale and
tannin from tea (brown deposit) in your tea
-
pot can lead to impaired performance (tea
not so well brewed or not hot enough).
Furthermore, the taste of tea tends to impre
-
gnate the appliance and is likely to impair
the taste of the various varieties you may
brew later
To avoid this happening, the whole teapot
needs to be cleaned
after each use.
To clean your teapot:
- Disconnect it
- Let it cool down
- Rinse the inside of the glass pot with a
damp sponge and wipe the plastic parts
with a damp cloth.
- Put the brewing basket and lid under hot
water using your usual washing up liquid.
- Always check that the electrical connec -
tions remain dry.
• DO NOT USE scouring pads or any other
abrasive liquid, especially on the bottom
heating assembly, as this could damage
your teapot.
DESCALINg
Descale your teapot regularly, preferably
every 20 to 40 uses, and more often if your
water contains a lot of limestone.
To descale your teapot:
• Use commercially available 8° white vine
-
gar (available from hardware stores):
- Fill the teapot with 1/2 litre of vinegar,
- Let this stand for 1 hour cold
• Citric acid:
- Heat up 1/2 litre of water
- Add 25g of citric acid and allow to stand
for 15 min.
Empty your teapot and rinse it 5 or 6 times.
Repeat if necessary.
Never use another method for descaling
than that recommended.
IF A PROBLEM OCCURS
- If the teapot fails to work, make certain:
• that it has been correctly plugged in
• that it is not scaled up
• that the discs in the bottom of the
brewing basket’s rod are not blocked.
• that it was correctly filled with water; if
not, fill and then press button “7” again.

PREVENTINg
DOMESTIC ACCIDENTS
For children, even minor burning or scalding
can sometimes be serious.
As they grow, teach your children to be extre
-
mely careful where there are hot liquids to
be found in the kitchen. Place the teapot and
its power cord well to the back of the work
area, out of reach of children.
In the event of an accident,
cool the burn or
scald under cold running water immediately
and call a doctor if necessary.
• To avoid accidents, do not carry your child
or baby when you are drinking or carrying
a hot drink.
