Before preparing the first cup of coffee

Connect appliance to socket. Cord can be lengh tend or shortened by using the cable storage (1)
The display (LCD) is illuminated and flashes.
Set the time by using the buttons „H“ and „MIN“ (2). A quick run is possible by pressing the buttons constantly.
To save energy, the LCD-light switches off 2 seconds after last use of one of the buttons. If you want to have a constant lighting of the display press the buttons “H” and “MIN” together for longer than 1 second. Switching off the light can be done the same way.
For cleaning the appliance before first use, fill the watertank with clear, cold water. Press button “ON/OFF” (3) to start the cleaning process.
Switch off the appliance with “ON/OFF” button after the end of the brewing process. Repeat this once.

Adjusting the water hardness

To maintain value and function of the appliance it has an integrated descaling program.
The appliance can be programmed with 4 degrees of water hardness. It is set to high water hardness in the factory.
We recommend an individual adjustment based on your local degree of hardness. You can ask your local water supplier or use a special control strip for determining.
To adjust degree of hardness press button „CALC“ (4) and keep it pressed. The display shows the factory-provided presetting. For adjustment press button „MIN“ as long as the display shows your desired degree of hardness. 2 seconds after releasing the “CALC” button, the display shows the time again.
Your chosen water hardness is programmed. The last adjustment maintains even when the appliance will be disconnected from the socket.

Coffee preparation

To maintain the best aroma of your coffee keep the coffee packaging always closed and store it in a refridgerator.
We recommend to use 6g ground coffee per cup for best taste. To secure an optimal brewing result fold the filterbag 102® as described on the packaging.
Fill the removable water tank (6) with fresh, cold water. The needed amount of water based on cups to prepare can be read off the cup scale on the water tank.
Insert the water tank again.
Swivel out the filter (7). Place a filterbag into the filtercone and fill in your desired quantity of ground coffee into the filterbag. Swivel filter back until it snaps in.
Press „ON/OFF“ button (3). The green LED is illuminated and the brewing process starts.
After end of brewing you can remove the jug from the appliance. The drip stop avoids dripping.
Let the appliance cool down for 5 minutes between 2 brewing cycles.

Timer function

The appliance is equipped with a timer function. With this function, the brewing process can be started automatically at a pre-programmed time.
Set the desired starting time by using the buttons „H“ and „MIN“ (2). A quick run is possible by pressing the buttons constantly.
After releasing the button,,TIMER”, the current or when the appliance disconnected from socket.
By pressing the “TIMER” button again shortly, the function is activated for the next brewing cycle. Blue
LED light shows activation and the programmed starting time is visible in the display for a few seconds.
The timer-function can be de-activated by a further press on the “TIMER” button. The blue LED light expires.
The brewing process can be started independently from the timer-function by pressing the “ON/OFF” button.

Adjustable warm-keeping time

Long-term warm-keeping of the coffee on the warming plate leads to loss of taste.
Therefore we recommend a warm-keeping time of not longer than 30 minutes.
This time is presented for securing optimal coffee quality and also to avoid unneeded energy consumption.
If you want to keep your coffee warm for a longer time, you can set the time in 4 steps until the appliance switches off automatically.
For setting the warm-keeping time keep the “ON/OFF” button pressed. 0:30 appears in the display.
Set the needed warm-keeping time by pressing the “MIN” button in 30-minute steps (up to 2 hours max.)
After releasing the “ON/OFF” button, the current time appears again after 2 seconds.
The last setting maintains even when the appliance will be disconnected from a socket.

Descaling program

To secure a proper function of the appliance, it has to be descaled regularly. We recommend using Swirl
Oxy-Power or Swirl Citrus-Clean. To simplify this necessary process, the appliance is equipped with a descaling program.
Once the number of brewing cycles, based on the individual adjustment of water hardness, is reached, the red LED (O) lights up permanently.
This shows that descaling should be done short term.
To start descaling, fill the water tank with a descaling agent according to the information on its packaging
Press the “CALC” button (@). The red LED flashes.
The descaling process takes 25 minutes. The remaining time is shown in the display.
The red LED expires after the descaling process has finished. The appliance switches off automatically and the display shows the current time again.
Clean the appliance after descaling by 2 brewing cycles with clear water without coffee to remove sealer residues.

Cleaning and maintenance

Remove the cord from the socket before you clean the appliance.
Never immerse the appliance or cord in water.
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth.
Clean the parts which are in contact with coffee after each use. Filter cone and glass jug are dishwasher safe.
The water tank can be cleaned under running water
Do not use harsh and abrasive brushes.
