IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE
WARNING
– Immediately after brewing, the filter system, bottom of the brew-
ing head, and heating plate are hot. Avoid to touch hot parts. Wait until the appli-
ance cooled down (at least 15 minutes), before touching parts, that get hot during
operation. Please keep in mind, that the heating plate is heated via the keep warm
function even after the brewing cycle is complete.
IMPORTANT -
If you have used the re-usable filter, ensure to keep the filter, when
disposing of the coffee powder. Do not flush coffee powder into the sink. The out-
let pipe could get clogged!
Wet coffee powder may go mouldy, if left within the coffee machine. Thus, after
each usage, you should remove the filter and coffee powder, and rinse the filter
basket, splash shield, and re-usable filter (if used) with hot water. These steps can
be performed even while the keep warm function is running and the glass carafe is
still filled and placed on the heating plate.
CAUTION
– When all items on the operating panel are illuminated (e.g. while
the keep warm function is running), always ensure that the water tank is completely
empty, before pressing the opening button (“OPEN”) at the right side of the housing.
The re-usable filter is lined with a fine nylon mesh, that could be damaged by sharp-
edged objects and violence. For cleaning the re-usable filter, only use hot water and
a soft brush with rounded off edges (e.g. a clean tooth brush). If the nylon mesh is
damaged, the re-usable filter must be replaced.
NOTE
You may clean the empty re-usable filter, splash shield and filter basket in an auto-
matic dishwasher.
1. Wait at least 15 minutes after the brewing cycle is complete and the appropri-
ate acoustic signal has been given. Then press the opening button at the right
side of the housing and turn out the filter holder to the complete open position.
Via the handle of the filter basket pull the filter basket out of the filter holder.
Remove the splash shield from the filter basket.
2. If required, take the re-usable filter out via the handle. The handle will be folded
down at the rim of the e-usable filter. Discard the used coffee powder in dome-
stic waste. Filter bags can be taken out completely with their contents. Discard
filter bags and coffee powder in domestic waste.
3. For removing the coffee oils after each usage, clean the filter basket, splash
shield and, if required, the re-usable filter thoroughly with hot water and a soft
brush. Handle the re-usable filter with special care to avoid damage to the fine
nylon mesh. Thoroughly rinse all parts under running water. Then dry the parts
and leave them dry naturally for approx. 1/2 hour.
NOTE
It is good advice to place the filter basket, splash shield and re-usable filter (when
you plan to use it again) back into the filter holder and engage the filter holder
under the brewing head of the appliance. This is the best way for avoiding loss
and damage.
4. After shut-off (operating panel gets dark, only the on/off button is illuminated),
wait at least 15 minutes until the heating plate cooled down. Then wipe the
heating plate using a soft damp cloth to remove any stains of coffee and lime.
5. After emptying the glass carafe, rinse the glass carafe and carafe lid with clear
tap water.
6. Additionally you should perform a thorough cleaning procedure of the parts of
the coffee machine regularly (see: ‘Care and Cleaning’).
SOLVING PROBLEMS
If any problems occur during operation, you will find solutions in this section.
Problem
Possible Reason
The Solution
Emergency stop required?
Unplug the power plug from the power outlet.
When filling the water
tank, water runs out and/
or accumulates below the
appliance.
You attempted to overfill
the water tank.
Immediately unplug the appliance and wipe off spilled
water carefully. The capacity of the water tank is adapted
to the capacity of the glass carafe. Do not fill in more
than 12 cups (max. 1.5 litres). Surplus water runs out at
the overflow opening at the rear of the appliance.
You spilled some water
while filling the water
tank.
Avoid spilling water. Pour the water slowly into the water
tank. When the vessel used for filling is really full or
insufficient for this purpose, water could run down at the
exterior of the vessel.
The water tank is leaking. Immediately unplug the appliance. Contact your vendor
for examination and repair.
