- Flush the coffee machine with fresh water
before you use it for the first time (see
chapter ‘First use’). This causes the system to
fill with water, which is essential for the
machine to work properly.
- Never interrupt the descaling process.
- Never use a descaling agent based on
mineral acids such as sulphuric acid,
hydrochloric acid, sulphamic acid and acetic
acid (e.g. vinegar). These descaling agents
may damage the machine.
- The machine is intended for normal
household use only. It is not intended for use
in environments such as staff kitchens of
shops, offices, farms or other work
environments. Nor is it intended to be used
by clients in hotels, motels, bed and
breakfast and other residential environments.
- Do not disassemble the insulated jug.
- Never immerse the insulated jug in water or
any other liquid, as this could cause water to
enter between the walls of the jug.
- The insulated jug is not dishwasher-proof.
- When the jug is filled with coffee, keep it in
upright position to prevent leakage.
- During brewing and until the light stops
blinking, the filter holder is filled with hot
coffee.

First use
The machine starts an automatic flushing cycle when you switch it on for
the first time, no matter which button you press.
1
Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.
2 Remove the water reservoir from the machine and remove the lid from
the water reservoir (Fig. 2).
3 Clean the water reservoir thoroughly in hot water, if necessary with some
washing-up liquid.
4 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication
(Fig. 3).
5 Put the lid back onto the water reservoir and put the water reservoir back
onto the machine (Fig. 4).
6 Place the 1-cup pod holder in the coffee machine. Close the lid and
make sure it is properly locked (Fig. 5).
7 Remove the drip tray from the platform and put a bowl (with a capacity
of at least 1 liter) or the jug under the coffee outflow (Fig. 6).
8 Press one of the buttons on the control panel. All three lights start
flashing (Fig. 7).
9 The flushing cycle starts. During the flushing cycle the system fills itself
with water from the water reservoir. The machine produces more noise
than during a regular brewing cycle.
10 The machine switches off when the water tank is empty (Fig. 8).
11 After the first flushing cycle, clean the collector ring and the pod holder
with hot water and some washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher. Rinse
the insulated jug under the tap.
Brewing a jug of drip-filter coffee
1
Open the lid of the machine (Fig. 9).
2 Remove the pod holder, if present (Fig. 10).
3 Remove the drip tray, if present.
4 Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the level required for
the number of cups of coffee you wish to brew and put the water
reservoir back onto the machine (Fig. 11).
5 Rinse the insulated jug with hot tap water to preheat it .
Tip: To obtain the tastiest and hottest coffee, brew at least half a jug of
coffee.
6 Place the filter holder on top of the insulated jug (Fig. 12).
7 Open the lid of the filter holder.
8 Put a paper filter size 102 in the filter holder. Make sure that you fold the
sealed edges to ensure that the paper filter stays upright during brewing
(Fig. 13).
9 Use the measuring spoon to put the required amount of pre-ground
coffee in the filter (Fig. 14).
Tip: Use one measuring spoon of pre-ground coffee for each cup. Use a
heaped measuring spoon for strong coffee and a level measuring spoon
for mild coffee.
10 Close the lid of the filter holder.
11 Slide the insulated jug on the platform of the machine (Fig. 15).
12 Press the jug button to start the brewing process (Fig. 16).
-
The light in the jug button starts flashing and the brewing process
starts. (Fig. 17)
-
When all the water from the water reservoir has passed through the
filter, the light in the jug button goes out and the machine switches
off automatically.
13 You can now remove the insulated jug from the machine (Fig. 18).
14 Remove the filter holder from the insulated jug (Fig. 19).
Tip: You can place the filter holder on the drip tray to prevent coffee
from leaking onto your worktop while you pour out coffee from the jug
(Fig. 20).
15 Place the jug lid on the insulated jug and turn it to the keep-warm
position (closed lock symbol) (Fig. 21).
16 Push the lever of the jug lid to pour coffee into one or more cups, (Fig.
22)
Brewing pod coffee
Brewing one cup of pod coffee
1
Fill the water reservoir with clean cold water up to the MAX indication
and put it back onto the machine (Fig. 3).
Note: The MIN indication on the water reservoir indicates the minimum
amount of water required for brewing pod coffee. Always fill the water
reservoir beyond the MIN level.
2 Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.
3 Open the lid of the machine by moving the lever upwards (Fig. 9).
4 Place the drip tray on the platform of the machine (Fig. 23).
5 Place one pod in the 1-cup pod holder with the convex side pointing
downwards (Fig. 24).
Note: Make sure that the pod holder is clean and the sieve in the center
is not clogged, e.g. with loose coffee grounds.
Note: Make sure that the coffee in the pod is distributed evenly and
press the pod lightly into the pod holder.
6 Place the 1-cup pod holder in the machine and close the lid (Fig. 5).
7 Place a cup on the drip tray (Fig. 25).
8 Press the 1-cup button to brew coffee. (Fig. 26)
-
The button starts flashing and the machine starts heating up (Fig. 27).
-
When the heating-up process is finished, the machine starts brewing
coffee (Fig. 28). After brewing, the machine switches off
automatically.
9 Remove the coffee pod after use by lifting the pod holder out of the
machine and emptying it (Fig. 10).
Caution: Be careful when you do this, for there may still be some hot
water/coffee on the coffee pod(s).
Caution: Never put normal ground coffee or use torn pods in the machine,
as this causes it to become blocked.
Brewing two cups of pod coffee
1
To brew two cups of pod coffee,place the deeper 2-cup pod holder in
the machine. Place two pods in the 2-cup pod holder (Fig. 29).
2 Press the 2-cup button to brew coffee (Fig. 30).
-
The button starts flashing and the machine starts heating up (Fig. 31).
-
When the heating-up process is finished, the machine starts brewing
coffee (Fig. 32). After brewing, the machine switches off
automatically.
3 Remove the coffee pods after use by lifting the pod holder out of the
machine and emptying it (Fig. 33).
Note: Instead of two pods, you can also place a cappuccino pod, a hot
chocolate pod or a special pod for a mug of strong coffee in the 2-cup pod
holder and place a mug under the coffee spout. In this case, press the 1-cup
button instead of the 2-cup button to brew your beverage.
