5c. The Stainless Steel Carafe
Before brewing, always make sure the
carafe is empty. For best results rinse
the carafe with hot water.
Please note: Always remove the
carafe slowly from the machine. This
makes sure that the drip stop can
close, preventing coffee from dripping
down the coffee maker.
The carafe has three small rubber feet
to prevent slipping. Lift the carafe to
avoid the rubber feet from marking
surfaces.
Important:
• Do not place the carafe on any hot
surfaces. This will damage the
vacuum seal inside the carafe. In
this case the carafe will not keep
the coffee warm.
• If you drop the carafe the vacuum
seal can get damaged resulting in
heat loss.
• Do not place carafe in dishwasher
and do not immerse in any liquid.
• Do not turn carafe upside down
with hot liquid inside (Fig. 14).
For cleaning see chapter 8.
5d. Pouring Coffee While Brewing
You can slowly pull the carafe out
during brewing and pour a cup of
coffee. The machine turns off (On/Off
button is no longer illuminated).
Replace the carafe, push the On/Off
button again and brewing will resume.
5e. Extra Brewing Cycle for 4 to 6
Cups.
We recommend not brewing less than
4 cups of coffee. The ST600 has a
slower brewing cycle for small batches.
This will help to increase the tempera-
ture for small amounts of coffee. Use
this feature when brewing 4 to 6 cups
of coffee. With the carafe inserted into
the machine, push and hold the
On/Off button until the “cup” symbol
appears in the display (Fig.3). The
On/Off switch is now illuminated and
br
ewing will start. The next time you
make coffee the machine will automat-
ically return to the regular brewing cycle.
6. Brewing at a Pre-Programmed
Time
1. Set the Auto-on time as described
in chapter 2d. Make sure the Auto-
on time is correct (AM or PM).
Hint: If you want your coffee ready
by 7:15 AM, set the Auto-on time
to 7:03. At 7:15 AM your coffee is
in the carafe. Remove carafe slowly
from the machine and pour your first
cup. Then close the lid to keep the
rest hot. This way you get the
hottest coffee possible.
Please note: Avoid any air condi-
tioner blowing cold air against the
thermal carafe. This will cool down
the carafe overnight and reduce
the temperature in the carafe.
2. Prepare the machine as described
in chapter 4, steps 1 through 10.
3. Push the Auto-on button (Fig.2,M).
It will illuminate green. At the Auto-
on time, the On/Off button will
illuminate red and the green Auto
light will go off indicating that
brewing has started.
Please note:
• If you pushed the Auto-on button
by mistake, just push it again and
the green illumination will turn off.
• Small batch brewing in the Auto-
On position: With the Auto-on light
illuminated in green, push and hold
the On/Off button until the cup
symbol in the display appears.
• Power Interruption:
If you experience a temporary
power failure, the coffee maker will
shut down. The machine will not
brew at the pre-programmed time.
Once power is restored, push the
On/Off button and coffee will be
ready in a few minutes. Later reset
the clock and the Auto-on time
(chapter 2c and 2d).
