lf you prefer milder coffee, turn the AromaSelect dial
in the direction of the symbol (b). Should you
prefer a stronger taste, turn the AromaSelect dial
towards the symbol. Regardless of the position
you select, the coffee will always have the same full
coffee flavour only with a milder or stronger after
taste.
With the cover of the water container 6 closed,
the selected setting can always be seen (c).

Making coffee
Place the prewarmed thermal carafe with the closed
lid (g) onto the stand of the coffeemaker 9. After
having filled coffee into the filter, snap the filter holder
in place and switch on the coffeemaker. Brewing
time is approx. 50 seconds per cup (including
dripping). A «drip stop» prevents dripping when
removing the carafe before brewing is finished.
Switch of
f the coffeemaker after the brewing is
finished.
Remove the filter holder 8 to empty grounds (d) (see
section «Cleaning»).
When filled compietely, the thermal carafe keeps
coffee hot for several hours. lf partly filled, the
warmkeeping time is reduced depending on the filling
level. Therefore, and in particular for small quantities
remaining in the carafe, it is absolutely necessary to
prewarm the flask before brewing coffee. In order to
obtain very hot coffee even when preparing small
quantities (up to 4 cups) we recommend to fill
approx. 1 more cup of water in the water container.
By switching on the appliance, allow this additional
quantity of water to run through the empty filter into
the thermal carafe, then switch off the appliance.
Wait for a moment before emptying the carafe. Then
you can fill coffee grounds in the filter and start the
real brewing cycle as described above.
Space compensator
The space compensator 4 in the water container 3
takes up the space which is intended for the water
filter cartridge D. Unless the water filter cartridge is
installed in the water container, the space compen-
sator must always be inside the water container
when filling with water and brewing to avoid overfil-
ling. Keep the space compensator
as it has to
be installed in the water container if you have to
decalcify your coffeemaker.
Water filter cartridge
The water filter cartridge D is suitabie for drinking-
water only. It gives you purer tasting coffee by
removing chlorine, bad tastes and odors as weil as
scale. Provided the cartridge is regularly replaced, it
provides not only better tasting coffee, but also can
increase the life of your coffeemaker by preventing
calcification.
Installing the water filter car
tridge
Unpack the water filter cartridge D.
Remove the space compensator 4 from the water
container and replace it by the water filter cartridge
D. Make sur
e to keep the space compensator as it
could be needed if you do not use the water filter any
longer at a future point in time or for decalcification.
After having installed a new water filter cartridge,
allow the maximum amount of fresh, cold water to
run through the coffeemaker.
In order to ensure the proper functioning of the filter
cartridge, exchange it after 2 months of regularly
using the coffeemaker. In order to remind you to
replace the filter in time, you may set the dial d
incorporated in the cover of the water container to
the month when the cartridge has to be exchanged.
Dial for water filter exchan
ge
After having installed a new filter cartridge, set the
dial d 2 months further by turning it from the reverse
side of the water container cover.
Cleaning
Always pull the plug out of the socket before
cleaning. The appliance should never be cleaned
under running water nor immersed in water. Swing
out the filter holder and lift it off (d). To replace it, set
the curved protruding rim of the filter holder onto the
support bracket 7. Be sure that the rib under the rim
of the filter holder fits snugly into the groove of the
support bracket so that the filter holder closes easily
(d).
The filter support bracket can be taken off for clean-
ing. Swing it out, push it up and pull it diagonally
downwards (e). To replace, insert the top first.
Never submerge the thermal carafe in water nor put
it in the dishwasher. After using the carafe rinse it
with warm, clear water. The glass flask has to be
handled carefully. Do not use hard objects or scour-
ing powder to clean it. Never reach with your hand
into the flask.
Coffee stains which may form on the glass after
the carafe has been used for some time can be
removed easily by means of kitchen salt. Fill a
handful of kitchen salt into the thermal carafe and
add some cold water. Then swirl the mixture gently
until the salt crystals have eliminated the brown
stains in the glass flask. Alternatively a denture
cleaner tablet can be used: Fill the flask with warm
