Cleaning the filter Basket
warning:
Do not lift the cover of the coffeemaker during or immediately
after the brewing cycle. Even if the water reservoir seems to be empty, hot water and
steam could spit out of the holes in the middle of the cover and cause scalding. After brew-
ing is completed, there can still be some HOT liquid in the filter basket.
Always switch off the appliance (on/off button), before opening the cover of the
appliance. Allow to drain completely, and to cool down for at least 10 minutes. Remove
the filter basket carefully.
1. Switch off the appliance (on/off button), and allow to cool down for at least 10
minutes. Ensure that the cover of the coffeemaker has cooled.
note: When lifting up the cover of the coffeemaker, condensation can drip down the back
and onto your counter. This does not mean that the appliance is leaking. immediately
wipe off the condensate using a clean dry cloth.
2. Open the cover of the coffeemaker and carefully remove the filter basket. For this, grasp
the tabs on each side of the filter basket, and lift the filter basket straight up from the cof-
feemaker.
3. Discard the used filter bag and grounds in the dustbin for domestic refuse. However, the
grounds (without filter bag!) can be composted.
note: Do not wash away the coffee grounds in the sink.
CauTion: Always handle the filter basket with care to avoid damage to the Pause &
Serve mechanism.
4. Rinse the filter basket after each brewing cycle with tap water. On occasion, carefully
clean the filter basket with warm dishwater using a soft nylon brush.
