3/ USING YOUR MACHINE
a) Using the Machine
• Open the tank lid and fill the tank with cool or cold water up to the
level corresponding to the number of cups of coffee desired. Do not
exceed the maximum level of the tank.
• Open the filter holder cover and place a paper filter in the basket.
• Put ground coffee into the paper filter using the measure supplied
or a spoon.
• We suggest using a level tablespoon of ground coffee for each
cup of coffee. After using the coffee maker several times, you can
adjust the quantity of coffee to your taste.
• Close the lid of the tank.
• Place the coffee pot with its lid in place on the warming plate. The
coffee pot will open the anti-drip valve when it is correctly placed
on the plate. Otherwise the filter coffee will not pass into the coffee
pot and could overflow from the filter.
• Plug the machine into the mains and turn on the coffee maker by
pressing the On/Off switch.
• The water will start being filtered through the coffee maker, pouring
coffee into the pot. When the coffee is ready the warming plate will
keep the coffee hot for approximately 40 minutes. Turn off the
coffee maker by pressing the switch if you do not want to keep the
coffee hot.
• After 40 minutes, the coffee maker will turn off automatically to
save energy.
• Unplug the coffee maker.
The coffee maker is fitted with an anti-drip system. This prevents the
coffee from dripping onto the plate when the pot is not correctly in
place or when it is removed from the machine.
b) Recommendations for Good Coffee
To give the coffee a better flavour and aroma we recommend using
freshly ground coffee. The coffee should be medium ground, not too
fine.
Keep the coffee in a dry place. Once the packet of coffee is open you
can keep it in the refrigerator so it retains its aroma.
This coffee maker will keep the coffee hot with the warming plate, but
the best coffee is coffee that is drunk immediately after being prepared.
