Coffee preparation

For the best tasting coffee

Use Melitta® coffee filters I x4®. Fold the coffee filter before use ⑦, so that it sits perfectly in the filter
If you are using whole beans, grind them fresh as needed.
If you use ground coffee: Keep the pack tightly closed and store it in the fridge.

3.1 Using the appliance

Remove the lid from the water tank. Fill the tank with cold, clean water. Choose the correct amount of water using the cup or liter level indicators on the tank ②. As soon as water is poured into the tank, it is illuminated making it easier to see the level indicator marks.
Remove the filter from the holder using the lever in the filter handle ⑧. Remove the lid from the filter.
Put a coffee filter into the filter. Add enough ground coffee for the desired number of cups ⑧.
Replace the filter lid. Push the filter back into the holder until you hear it click into place ⑨.
Start brewing by pressing the Start & Stop button ④. The LED illuminates and brewing begins.
AromaSignature® Therm DeLuxe: For the best aroma when making less than 6 cups, start the appliance in ‘2-5 cup’ mode ⑥. First press the 2-5 cups button ⑥ and then the Start & Stop button ④. This extends the brewing time giving you the best aromatic coffee result even with small amounts of coffee.
At the end of the brewing the tank illumination turns itself off.
AromaSignature® Therm DeLuxe: The end of brewing is indicated by a sound signal.
After brewing you can remove the pot from the appliance. The drip stop ③ prevents dripping onto the hotplate.

3.2 Using the insulated jug

The brewed coffee flows through the central opening in the lid directly into the jug.
To pour the coffee press down on the closing lever ⑧.
To remove the lid, hold the side locks down and simply lift up the lid. Hold the side locks down when you replace the lid ⑨.

Descaling Programme

Depending on the regional water hardness the device can become calcified over time. This leads to an increased energy consumption caused by limescale in the heating element which prevent the optimal energy transfer to the water. Excessive calcification can lead to damage and affect the proper functioning of the appliance. The red LED “DECALC” (5) lights up while preparing coffee if there is too much limescale on the heating element and indicates that the appliance should be descaled as soon as possible. We recommend the use of Melitta® „AntiCalc Liquid for Filter Coffee & Aqua Machines”.

To prepare the descaling process fill the water tank with descale according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Press the DECALC button ⑤. The automatic descaling program starts, this is shown by the flashing red LED.
Attention: To ensure that the descaling agent has enough time to take effect, the water will only start flowing into the pot after several minutes.
When the descaling process is complete the red and green LEDs turn off.
AromaSignature® Therm DeLuxe: In addition, a sound signal notifies you when the descaling programme is finished.
The appliance turns off automatically.
After the descaling process the appliance must be rinsed through twice with clean water and without coffee to remove residual lime scale and descale.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning turn the appliance off and remove the power cable from the socket.
Never immerse the appliance or the power cable in water
Clean the fixed housing parts with a soft damp cloth.
Clean the parts, which come into contact with coffee (therm jug, filter) after each use.
Filter, filter lid, therm jug and water tank lid can be cleaned in the dishwasher
The water overflow is removable and can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
