OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER
- Place your coffee maker on a flat, level
surface, such as a countertop. Plug the unit
into an outlet.
- Open the water container lid. Pour in the
desired amount of water, i.e. by removing
the water container and hold this under the
tap. Please observe that there can be more
water in the coffee maker than in the jug.
The water level is indicated on the water
container.
NOTE: Make sure that water is NOT
exceeding the MAX indication on the
water level indicator on the side of the
water container, as this may result in
coffee running over the jug.
- Put the water container back in place,
making sure it is properly fixed, and close
the water container lid.
- Press the release knob. Insert a 1x4 cone
shaped paper filter into the filter basket.
Place the desired amount of ground coffee
into the paper filter.
- Push the filter basket back in place.
- Place the jug under the drip-stop.
- Press the brewing button so that the red
indicator lights. This indicates that the
coffee maker has started brewing.
- If you wish to brew more coffee immediately
after the first brewing has stopped, then let
the appliance cool off for 3-4 minutes and
follow the above points.
- When you have finished brewing coffee,
remove the plug from the mains outlet.
USING THE JUG
There is a direction on the lid.
The lid must be turned firmly on the jug when
you are brewing coffee, in this way the jug is
better to retain the warmth. When the lid is firmly
screwed on the indicator is angled backwards
towards the handle. To pour from the jug turn the
lid right until the indicator is turning towards the
spout. To remove the lid, turn the lid further to
the right.
DRIP STOP
- Your coffee maker has been designed with
an drip stop feature. If you wish at any time
during the brewing cycle, you might
temporarily remove the jug from the unit
and pour a hot cup of coffee. The brewing
cycle will be interrupted and no coffee will
drip from the filter basket. Simply by
replacing the jug on the plate you will restart
the brewing process.
- Do not remove the jug for longer than 30
seconds.
CLEANING
- Make sure the coffee maker is switched off
and cooled before each cleaning.
- The jug and basket may be washed in hot
soapy water.
- Wipe the coffee maker base with a soft,
slightly damp cloth and dry. Never use
abrasive scouring pads or cleaners as they
will scratch and/or discolour the finish.
DECALCIFYING
- Mineral deposits can clog your coffee
maker. To keep your coffee maker operating
efficiently, you must regularly clean out
mineral deposits left by the water; they can
build up and clog your coffee maker. At
least once a month, use the household
cleaning solution described below, to
prevent this clogging.
- You should clean your coffee maker every 2
weeks if the water in your area is especially
hard. Frequent cleaning may improve coffee
flavour brewing time.
Household cleaning solution.

Add cold water to the vinegar until it almos
reaches the top. Pour water and vinegar
into the water tank.
- Place jug on the plate. Switch the coffee
maker on.
