COFFEE MAKER FUNCTION
CAUTION: ALWAYS REMOVE THE CARAFE (O) BEFORE OPENING OR CLOSING THE FILTER HOLDER
INITIAL OPERATION
For a perfect taste, carry out 2 or 3 boil processes with fresh water (without coffee). Once all
the water has passed through, switch off the appliance and let it cool down during 5 minutes.
Then repeat the process with fresh water.
PREPARATION OF COFFEE
Open the swing filter holder (n) (Fig. I)
Insert a filter in the filter holder (Fig. II) and fill it with the desired amount of coffee (Fig. III).
Close the swing filter holder making sure it is closed tight. (Fig. IV)
Open the lid of the water tank (l) and pour the desired amount of water (Fig. V)
Do not forget to close the lid of the water tank (l) before switching on the appliance
Put the switch (m) of the coffee maker in ON position (fig VI). The pilot light (q) will come
on.
When you remove the carafe (o) from the appliance, an anti-drip valve will automatically
operate to stop any drops of coffee from dripping onto the hotplate (p). Putting back the
carafe automatically opens the anti-drip valve and allows remaining coffee to flow trough
into the carafe.
Wait until the brewing process is finished and the filter has run empty.
CLEANING
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it. Clean the swing filter, the carafe and its
lid in hot soapy water. Do not put those parts in the dishwasher.
Never use abrasive products.
Never immerse the appliance in water. To clean it only use a soft damp cloth.
Do not use cloth to wash the inside of the water tank, this could let threads or cloth rests in
it. Rinse it regularly with clear water.
