SEVERIN KA 4037 - Manual (Page 8)

do not put your hand into it. Always
close the jug with its screw cap. The
coffee can be poured out easily by half a
turn of the cap, without removing the
cap. Do not leave the vacuum jug
unattended near where children may
reach it.
To prevent damage to the glass flask:
- Avoid shocks and great differences in
temperature.
- Do not stir in the jug, for example with a
metal spoon.
- Do not use hard brushes or abrasive
cleaning agents.
- Do not wipe the inside with a cloth. Dust
particles may cut the glass (similar to a
glass-cutter).
- Do not wash in a dishwasher.
- Do not use in a microwave oven.
Descaling
● To keep the coffee maker in excellent
working order, we recommend that you
descale the appliance at regular intervals.
● Descaling is required when the filtering
process takes longer than normal, or if
the appliance becomes noisy during
operation.
● To avoid damage caused by the build-up
of deposits, descale the appliance after
thirty to forty operations. We
recommend using vinegar for descaling.
- Add two to three tablespoons of vinegar
essence to the maximum amount of cold
water.
- Pour this mixture into the water
reservoir. Place a paper filter into the
filter holder (without ground coffee) and
operate the appliance as described in
section To prepare filter coffee. Repeat
the descaling process if necessary.
Ventilate the room during the descaling
process and do not breathe in the vinegar
vapours.
- To cleanse the appliance after descaling,
operate it a further three times with cold
fresh water only (without using ground
coffee).
- Do not pour descalers into enamelled
sinks.
Cleaning and care
● Remove the plug from the wall socket
and allow the appliance to cool before
cleaning.
● To avoid the risk of electric shock, never
immerse the coffee maker in water. Wipe
the coffee maker with a clean damp cloth
and dry afterwards.
● Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners.
- Remove the paper filter with the used
grounds and clean the filter holder in
warm soapy water.
Coffee maker with glass jug:
- Clean the glass jug in warm soapy water
and dry afterwards.
- Glass jug and jug lid are dishwasher safe.
● Every time the coffee maker is used,
ensure that the handle of the glass carafe
is properly and securely fitted. If
necessary, the metal ring may be
tightened by means of the screw in the
handle.
Coffee maker with vacuum jug:
- Do not dismantle the jug, do not wash in
a dishwasher and do not immerse it in
water.
- Rinse the inside of the jug with water and
wipe the outside with a clean damp cloth
after use.
- - To remove coffee deposits from the
inside of the vacuum jug, fill the jug with
hot water and add a tablespoon of
dishwasher detergent. Close the screw
cap and leave the jug for some hours.
Rinse out thoroughly with water
afterwards.
- To clean the drip-through lid, place it on
the jug and allow the water or cleaning
solution (after it has cleaned out the jug
itself) to pass out through the lid.
