SGETTING STARTED
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat resistant surface away from water
splashes and any sources of heat.
1 – Put the appliance into the mains.
2 After having removed the lid B, remove and fill the tank A with cold water
(fig. 1a and b).
3 Put the tank back in place by pressing firmly and reposition the lid B(fig. 2).
4 Place the desired container under the nozzle E (fig. 8).
5 Press “continuous water supply” button H and you will instantly obtain hot
water (fig. 3).
Keep it held down until you get the amount of hot water you want. Hot
water will stop running as soon as you release the button.
6 You can also use the automatic setting button with a pre-set quantity for
mugs. In this case, briefly press button G. The appliance will instantly
provide the quantity needed to fill a mug and stop automatically. If you
wish, stop the water before the end of the cycle, then again press the same
automatic button G (fig. 8).
7 Models equipped with a quantity selector offer an additional function: you
can adjust the amount of water automatically delivered to your container.
To do this, select the chosen amount on the selector I, then press the auto-
matic mug button G; the water flow will stop automatically (fig. 9).
8 If you use small cups, we advise you to bring the cup in close to tap E to
avoid splashing.
DESCALING your appliance
In order to optimise the lifetime of your appliance, we recommend that you descale it at least every 2 months.
Descaling should be carried out more frequently if you live in a very hard water area.
To de-scale:
1 Remove the Claris filter cartridge (fig. 6).
2 Place a container with at least 1.5 litre under the spout.
3 Empty the tank A if it is is still full of water, then reposition it on its base (fig. 2).
4 Pour 1 litre of commercially available white vinegar at 8° into the tank.
5 Press the continuous water supply button H and the mug pre-select button G simultaneously for at least
10 seconds (fig. 7).
6 The descaling cycle thus run automatically for approximately 10 minutes
7 When the cycle has come to an end, empty the container and refill the water tank to a maximum. Press the
“continuous water supply” button H to relaunch a new operation for rinsing the appliance (fig. 3).
8 Once the last cycle has finished, reposition the Claris cartridge and your appliance will again be ready
(fig. 6).
Never use any other de-scaling method than that recommended.
