Dear Customer,
Please read these Operating Instructions through carefully before connecting your device to the mains, in order to
avoid damage due to incorrect use. Please pay particular attention to the safety information. If you pass the
device on to a third party, these Operating Instructions must also be handed over.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Incorrect operation and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury to the user.
The appliance may be used only for it’s intended purpose. No responsibility can be taken for any possible
damage caused through incorrect use or improper handling.
Before plugging in the appliance, check that the current and power match those given on the rating plate.
Do not put the appliance or the plug in water or any other liquid. This could cause a fatal electric shock. If the
appliance or plug should accidentally become wet, unplug the appliance immediately and have it checked by an
electrician before using it again. Never attempt to open the appliance yourself.
Do not place any kind of object into the inside of the housing.
Do not use the appliance with wet hands, on a damp floor or when the appliance itself is wet.
Do not touch the plug with wet or damp hands.
Check the cable and the plug regularly for any possible damage. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Do not use the appliance if it is dropped or otherwise damaged or if the cable or plug are damaged. In the case
of damage, take the appliance to an electrical repair shop for examination and repair if necessary.
Never attempt to repair the appliance yourself. This could cause an electric shock.
Do not allow the cable to hang over sharp edges and keep it well away from hot objects and naked flames.
Remove the plug from the socket only by holding the plug.
For extra protection it is possible to fit the electric household installation with a fault current breaker with a rated
breaking current of not more than 30mA. Ask your electrician for advice.
Make sure that there is no danger that the cable or extension cable may inadvertently be pulled or cause
anyone to trip when in use.
If an extension cord is used it must be suited to the power consumption of the appliance, otherwise overheating
of the extension cord and/or plug may occur.
Stand the appliance on a firm, level and heatproof surface away from naked flame (eg. a gas oven) and out of
reach of children.
This appliance is not suitable for commercial use nor for use in the open air.
Never leave the appliance unattended while it is in use.
Children cannot recognise the dangers involved in the incorrect use of electrical appliances. Therefore never
allow children to use household appliances without supervision.
Always remove the plug from the socket when the appliance is not in use and each time before it is cleaned.
Danger! Nominal voltage is still present in the appliance as long as the appliance is connected to the mains
socket.
Switch the appliance off before disconnecting from the mains.
Never use the cable to carry the appliance.
SPECIAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Use only cold water – and no other liquid – to fill the water container.
If you use the machine to make several cups of coffee one after the other, switch it off for about 5 minutes in
between each individual use.
Do not fill below the minimum or above the maximum water level indicators on the inside of the water container.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove all packaging materials.
Before using the coffee machine for the first time, carefully wash all the removable parts and the glass jug in
warm water.
Plug the fan into a suitable mains socket.
Fill the water container up to the maximum mark (“12”) with cold water and operate the appliance twice but
without using any coffee.
OPERATION
Fill the glass jug with cold water.
Remove the lid of the water container and pour in the required amount of water (1 to 12 cups).
Pull out the permanent filter and - if required - place an ordinary filter bag in the filter compartment.
Using the measuring spoon supplied, put sufficient ground coffee (approximately 1 heaped measuring spoon
per cup) in the filter bag resp. in the permanent filter and level off.
Slide the swivel filter back into the coffee machine until it locks in position and place the glass jug below the
filter and on the hotplate.
Tilt the on/off switch to position I. The red operating light on the on/off switch will light up and the brewing
process will begin.
When the brewing process is complete, the coffee will be kept hot on the hotplate as long as the machine is
switched on. In order to enjoy the flavour of your coffee at its best, it is recommended that you should not keep
it warm for longer than one hour.
Please note: This coffee machine is fitted with a drop stop device. This will enable you to remove the glass jug
briefly to pour yourself a cup of coffee while the brewing process is continuing. Replace the glass jug below the
filter immediately to prevent the filter overflowing.
To turn the appliance off, tilt the on/off switch to position 0. The red operating light on the on/off switch will go
out.
CLEANING AND CARE
It is essential to note the safety instructions.
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
The glass jug and the permanent filter can be washed in warm water with a little mild detergent or in the
dishwasher.
Clean the outer surfaces using a soft, damp cloth and a gentle cleaner.
Never use abrasive cleaners or sharp objects (eg. steel wool).
Dry the appliance and all the removable parts before plugging in again or before reassembling the coffee
machine.
The coffee machine should be regularly descaled. How often you need to do this will depend on the hardness
of the water and how often the machine is used. With water of average hardness, it is recommended to descale
the machine every 3 to 4 months.
Use a normal descaler and follow the manufacturer’s instructions
After using the descaler, boil up twice using fresh water and rinse all removable parts to get rid of any residue.
