- Close supervision is necessary whenever the appliance is used near children.
- Unplug the appliance from the electrical socket when it is not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting on or removing parts and before cleaning.
- Do not operate the appliance if the cord or plug is damaged or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any way.

- Ensure the appliance is off before connecting or disconnecting the plug from the electrical socket.
- Only use the appliance for its intended purpose.
- WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, do not remove the bottom cover of the appliance. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repairs should be done by authorised professionals only.
- Use cold-filtered or bottled water for the best results. Warm water or other liquids may damage the appliance.
- Scalding may occur if the water reservoir cover is lifted or removed during the brewing cycle.
- lf the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a similarly qualified person to prevent risk to the person and property.
- The glass carafe is designed for use with this appliance only. It must never be used in any other drip-type coffee maker, on a range top or in a microwave.
- Never clean the inside of the carafe with a hard implement, scouring pad or abrasive cleaning products. Scratches on the glass can eventually cause the glass to break.
- Never stir the liquid inside the carafe with a spoon or other utensil.
- Do not use a cracked glass carafe or a carafe with a loose or weakened handle.

COFFEE-MAKING
HINTS AND TIPS
- Always use fresh, cold water to fill the water chamber.
- The quantity of ground coffee used can be adapted to taste. Use more or less coffee for a stronger or weaker flavour.
- If using regular ground coffee, more grounds are needed per cup to achieve the same strength of flavour as finer ground coffee.
- After using packaged ground coffee, tightly reseal and store it in a cool, dry place.
- To achieve the best-tasting coffee, use whole coffee beans and finely grind them in a coffee grinder.
- Do not reuse ground beans as this will greatly reduce the flavour of the coffee.
- Reheating the resulting coffee is not recommended as this interferes with the taste.

DECALCIFYING YOUR COFFEE
MAKER (CLEAN function) or mineral deposits ou via know when your unit needs
decalcifying when you notice an obvious slowing of the brewing cycle. We
recommend decalcitying your unit with a solution of white vinegar and cold
water. A solution of two tablespoons of white vinegar to one carafe of cold
water works best. Pour this solution into the water chamber and follow normal
operating instructions without a filter in the filter holder. Press the CLEAN
button. When the brewing cycle is finished, empty the carafe and rinse with
water. Refill the water chamber with cold water and repeat the brewing cycle
twice more with water only. This will remove any remaining vinegar solution.
We recommend you do this four times annually.
