ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (UK ONLY)

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorpo – rate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a shock hazard. W ith alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the cir – cuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse. If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the instructions provided below:

How to make drip coffee

** Please note:** the first time the appliance is used, all ac-cessories and the internal circuits must be washed through by making at least two jugs of coffee without using pre-ground coffee. Open the lid (B) (fig. 1) and use the jug (A) to pour clean cold water into the water tank compartment (E) up to the level indicated for the number of cups of coffee you want to make (fig. 2). Check the level of water in the tank through the level window (F) (fig. 3). You are recommended to use the jug provided as a measure as the maximum capacity of the jug and the tank are the same.

  • Position the permanent nylon filter (I) within the filter holder (C) (fig. 4).
  • Place the pre-ground coffee in the filter using the measure (G) provided and level evenly (fig. 5).
    Use good quality, medium pre-ground coffee for drip coffee makers. The type of blend has a considerable influence on the coffee you make.
    You should therefore try various types of coffee to find the one best suited to your taste.

The quantities given in the table are indicative and should be adapted to your personal taste and the type of coffee. Never exceed the maximum quantity of 5 measures. The type of blend has a c onsiderable in fluenceon the coffee you make.You should there fore try various types of coffee to find the one best suited to your taste.

  • Closethelid(B)andplacetheclosedjugontheplate(fig. 7).
  • Press the    button (L) (fig . 8).Thelightontheswitchin- dicates that the coffee maker is operating. Coffee delivery will start after a few seconds. It is completely normal for the appliance to give off steam while the coffee is percolating. The coffee maker emits a beep when delivery begins,  then three beeps when it ends. The taste of the coffee can  be optimised by pressingthe utton(N).Thisfunc- tionenables a process of percolation which releases the water in the filter more slowly. Filtering a little at a time improves the flavour and aroma of the coffee. To enable the func tion, ess pr thearoma button(theligh tonthe but- ton comes on). To disable the function, press the button again. You ear recommended to use the    button when you do not want to make a full jug of coffee.
  • If you leave the  button (L) pr essed after percolation has finished, the plate will keep the coffee at the ideal temperature. The appliance goes off automatically 40 minutes after coffee delivery ends. To turn the warming plate  (M) off pr ess the   button(L)again.Foranewbrewing cycle switch off the appliance pressing    button(L)and restart.

Please note: removing the jug before all the coffee requested has been delivered does not interrupt coffee making, but merely blocks flow into the jug. If you want to pour out a little coffee immediately, you should do so as rapidly as possible in order to avoid  the coffee overflowing.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before maintenance or cleaning of the appliance, turn off, unplug from the mains socket and allow to cool.

  • Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee maker. Just wipe with a soft damp cloth.
  • Neverimmersethecoffeemakerinwater.Itisanelectrical appliance.
  • The w ater tankfilter(H)canbereachedthroughthelid(B) (fig. 6). Clean when necessary.

Descaling

If the water in your area is hard, limescale builds up over time. These deposits may affect correct operation of the appliance. You are recommended to descale the coffee maker every 60 cof-fee making cycles. To descale, always use special commercially available descaling products for drip coffee makers.

  1. Dilute the product in the jug, following the instructions on the descaler pack.
  2. Pour the solution into the water fill compartment.
  3. Place the jug on the warming plate (M).
  4. Press the ( ) button (L), percolate the equivalent of one cup then turn the appliance off.
  5. Leave the solution to work for 15 minutes, then repeat op-erations 4 and 5.
  6. Turn the appliance on and deliver the water until the tank is completely empty.
  7. Rinse by operating the appliance with water only at least 3 times (3 complete tanks of water). Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.
