*1 level measuring spoon = a tablespoon
(0.17 oz. /5 gr.).
The quantities given in the tables are indicative
only and must be adjusted according to personal
taste and the quality of the coffee. To avoid coffee
overflow, never exceed the maximum quantity of
15 measuring spoons.
The quality of coffee you use can affect the taste of
your coffee. We suggest trying different brands of
coffee to find the one most suitable to your taste.
• Models with glass carafe: close the frontal
door and place the closed glass carafe on the
non stick warming plate (fig. 6).
Models with thermal carafe: Before placing
the carafe on the plate, make sure the lid is clo-
sed (fig. 7).
• Models with electronic control panel: you can
enhance the flavor of your coffee by pressing
the AROMA button. This feature activates a
unique brewing process, slowly releasing
water into the filter basket; saturating coffee
grounds a little at a time extracting the best fla-
vor and aroma from your coffee. To activate,
press the AROMA button; the light above the
button will illuminate. Press the button again to
turn the selection off. It is recommended to use
the aroma button if not brewing a whole cara-
fe of coffee.
Press the ON/AUTO/OFF button (fig. 8). The
red light indicates that the coffee maker is in
operation and the display shows “BREW”.
• Models with single switch: Press the
"ON/OFF” switch (fig. 9). The indicator light
on the switch indicates that the coffee maker is
in operation.
• The coffee will begin to emerge after a few
seconds. It is completely normal for the
appliance to release a little steam while the
coffee is brewing.
• In models with glass carafe, if you leave the
appliance switched on after brewing is fini-
shed, the non-stick warming plate will keep the
coffee at the ideal temperature. The unit auto-
matically shuts off after two hours.
• Models with thermal carafe: To pour the cof-
fee, turn the lid to the position shown in (fig.
10). To completely remove the lid from the cara-
fe, turn it to the position shown in (fig. 11).
The appliance switches automatically off after
brewing cycle.
Important: Removing the carafe before the machi-
ne has finished producing the coffee does not
interrupt the brewing process, but simply stops the
flow of coffee into the carafe. If you want to pour
out a little coffee before brewing is completed, do
so as quickly as possible to avoid coffee overflow.
PROGRAMMING THE AUTOMATIC START
(models with electronic control panel only)
Make sure that the time is set correctly.
To program the time to start coffee preparation:
•Press the SET TIMER button and keep it depres-
sed until you reach the desired switch-on time.
• Then release the SET TIMER button. The time
will flash for a few seconds until set: then the
display will show the current hour.
ACTIVATING THE TIMER
After you have:
- set the time for switch-on as described in the
previous section;
-prepare the machine for making coffee. Press
the ON/AUTO/OFF button quickly twice (fig.
12). The ON/AUTO indicator light changes to
green indicating the coffee maker is in opera-
tion: the display shows AUTO.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any cleaning operations, swit-
ch the appliance off, unplug it from the power
outlet, and let it cool down.
1. Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean
the appliance. A soft damp cloth is sufficient.
