Krups 453 Coffeemaker User Manual


 
It will also depend upon how often you
use your coffee maker.
An automatic
sensor
has been built
into your
ProAroma
12 Time which will
indicate when your coffee maker needs
decalcifying by displaying the message
“CALC”. This sensor is extremely
sensitive and the “CALC” message may
appear briefly in the display under
certain circumstances. This is of no
importance, however, and should be
ignored. Decalcification is necessary
only when “CALC” appears repeatedly
or permanently in the display.The
“CALC” display will remain visible until
the “on/off” key is pressed. You should
now decalcify the coffeemaker. We
recommend using KRUPS original
decalcifying agent for cleaning your
KRUPS coffeemaker. When used in
accordance with the following instruc-
tions, it will prolong the life of your
coffeemaker.
How to decalcify
Dissolve contents of decalcifier in two
cups of cold tap water. Pour solution
into the water tank, then place the
empty carafe and filterbasket in place.
Press the “aroma” button. Now select
the “l-3” cup setting. Press the
“on/off” key. Allow the decalcifying
solution to completely run through one
cycle. Repeat this two or three times
with cold liquid.
Rinse by cycling clean water through
twice, pausing and turning the
coffeemaker “off” for a few minutes in
between each rinse session.

A
Caution
KRUPS decalcifying agent is a citric
acid which is harmless. However, we
recommend keeping it out of the reach
of children.
Do not take internally. If swallowed
accidently, drink several glasses of
water or milk and consult your doctor.
For
best
results . . .
. . .
always use fresh, cold water (warm
water might be stale and have mineral
deposits which would Impair the flavor
of the coffee).
. . .
we recommend that you grind your
own beans. Freshly ground beans
deliver more aroma and flavor. Use one
KRUPS measuring spoon of beans per
cup.
. . .
serve coffee immediately after
brewing.
. . .
never reheat coffee.

The power cord can be tailored to
the length required by utilising the
hidden cord storage located
underneath the coffee maker
(see figure
