USING THE APPLIANCE

Warning!

Always fill the coffee maker with water before turning it on. We recommend using softened or filtered water to avoid any build-up of scale.
Never fill higher than the maximum level line 10 to ensure that hot water does not spill during use. Risk of burns!
Avoid brewing coffee when the water level is below the minimum level line 4.

Open the water reservoir cover (9).
Open the cover with the spray nozzle (8).
Pour a suitable amount of water into the water reservoir (6), depending on the number of cups of coffee to be made. The number of cups is shown on the water level gauge (6). Never fill higher than the maximum level line 10 on the graduated reservoir (6).
Place a filter in the filter holder (2).
Place the desired amount of ground coffee in the filter.
Open the cover with the spray nozzle (8).
Close the water reservoir cover (9).
Place the glass jug (3) on the hot plate (4).
N.B. : the coffee maker has an anti-drip system. This stops coffee from dripping from the filter holder (2) if the glass jug (3) is removed briefly while percolation is in progress. Put the jug back in place within 30 seconds, otherwise the coffee may overflow.
Connect the power plug (7) to a compatible power socket.
Switching on the appliance: Press the On/Off button (5) once. The indicator light turns red. The percolation process starts.
Let the appliance operate until the water reservoir (6) is empty.
Once the coffee has been prepared, if you do not want to serve it immediately, keep the switch in the “On” position. The coffee will be kept hot on the hot plate. The appliance will automatically turn off 40 minutes after it was turned on. For the best possible taste, serve coffee immediately after it has been prepared.
Alternatively you can turn off the appliance immediately by pressing the On/Off (5) switch.
The indicator light turns off.
Warning! When the glass jug (3) is empty, press the On/Off switch (5) to turn off the appliance manually. Never leave an empty jug on the hot plate (4) while the keep hot function is active.
Remove the glass jug (3) from the hot plate (4) to serve the coffee. Pour carefully to avoid spilling hot coffee.
Warning! When using the glass jug, hold it by the handle only. Risk of burns!
Leave the coffee maker to cool for at least five minutes between two percolation cycles.
When not in use, turn off the coffee maker and remove the plug (7) from the power socket.

Warning!
Before cleaning the appliance, ensure that it has been unplugged from the power socket, then leave it to cool fully.
Warning!
The jug is designed to be used with this appliance only; it must not be used with a high-range appliance. When the jug is full of hot coffee, do not put it down on a damp or cold surface.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Wash the filter holder and the filter in warm water. Leave them to dry fully.
Wash the jug in warm water and mild detergent.
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Leave them to dry fully.
N.B. : the glass jug may be washed in a dishwasher.
Clean using a soft, damp cloth to remove any stains. Leave them to dry fully.

Never use strong cleaning products or abrasive products.
Keep the appliance in a dry place, protected from humidity and direct sunlight, and out of the reach of children.

Descaling

N.B. : The coffee maker must be descaled regularly. The descaling intervals depend mainly on the hardness of the water and the frequency of use. Use only commercially available descalers and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Fill the water reservoir (6) to the maximum level line 10 with water and an appropriate amount of descaler.
Start the percolation process ( 5. USING THE APPLIANCE).
Ensure that the filter (1) (with no ground coffee) and filter holder (2) are correctly in place.
Turn on the appliance and leave the descaling solution to percolate.
Turn off the appliance once one cup of descaling solution has percolated.
Let the solution stand for 15 minutes and then repeat steps 3 and 5.
Turn on the appliance and let it continue its cycle until the solution has fully percolated.
Once the percolation process has finished, remove the full glass jug (3). Hold the glass jug only by the handle. Risk of burns!
Descaling residue may affect the taste of coffee. Let the coffee maker perform two or three percolation cycles with fresh water to eliminate all residue.
Clean the appliance.
