If several consecutive brewing cycles are required, switch off the coffee maker after each cycle and let the appliance cool down for approx. Important note: When filling the appliance with fresh water shortly after a brewing cycle is completed, there is a danger of scalding from hot water or steam escaping through the water outlet. Making coffee Filling with water: Open the water container lid and fill the container with the desired quantity of water. Inserting the paper filter: Open the swing-out filter sideways and insert a size-2 paper filter into the filter holder, first folding down the perforated sides of the filter. Filling with ground coffee: For each regular-sized cup (125 ml), a measure of about 6 g (= 1½ - 2 teaspoons) of medium ground coffee will be required. Preparing the glass carafe: Fit the lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance. If correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the filter holder during the brewing cycle. Starting the brewing cycle: Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off switch to turn the coffee maker on. Removing the glass carafe: Wait until all the water has passed through the filter before the carafe is removed from the appliance. Keeping the coffee warm: The coffee may be kept warm inside the carafe by leaving it standing on the hotplate. The plate is kept hot for around 35 minutes after brewing is complete. To interrupt the brewing cycle, or if the keeping-warm function is not needed, use the On/Off switch to turn the appliance off. Switching off the coffee maker: Once brewing/keeping-warm is complete, remove the plug from the wall socket. descaling Depending on the water quality (lime Content) in your area as well as the frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need descaling (i. Any warranty claim will be null and void if the appliance malfunctions because of insufficient descaling. A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing indicate that descaling of the coffee maker has become necessary. An excessive build-up of lime deposits is very difficult to remove, even when strong descaling agents are used. We therefore strongly recommend descaling the appliance after each thirty to forty brewing cycles.
