• Operate the coffee machine for the first time with 1 litre of water, without any
grounds.
The quality of the water that you use determines the taste of your coffee. You must
ensure that the water is freshly drawn from the tap (so that it has not had the time to
stagnate in the air), that it does not smell of chlorine and that it is at a fairly cold
temperature.
We recommend that you filter your water using a Krups Duo Filter cartridge,
reference XS 1000 (sold separately).
• Follow the illustrations from 23 to 29.
• Use only cold water and a N° 4 filter paper or a permanent filter.
• The coffee maker is fitted with a drip-stop device, allowing you to serve coffee before
the water has finished running through. Replace the jug quickly to avoid overflow.
• Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the water tank as shown by the water level
indicator (e).
• Wait for a few minutes before making coffee a second time.
• The coffee caraffe (g) and its lid (f) may be used for warming up coffee in the
microwave. Never put the empty jug in the microwave.
• To dispose of the used grounds, lift the filter holder out of the coffee maker (30).
