HOW TO MAKE DRIP COFFEE

Please note: the first time the appliance is used, all accessories and the internal circuits must be washed through by making at least two jugs of coffee without using pre-ground
coffee.

• Open the lid (E) at the top and use the jug to pour clean cold water into the water fill compartment (F) (fig. 2) up to the level indicated for the number of cups of coffee you want to make. Check the level of water in the tank through the level window (D) (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 filter (H) (if present) in the filter holder (G) (fig. 4). In versions without permanent filter, use the paper filter (size 1×4).
• Place the pre-ground coffee in the filter using the measure (C) provided and level evenly (fig. 5). See the table for recommended quantities. Use good quality, medium preground coffee for drip coffee makers.

Recommended quantities:

(*) 1 level measure = 1 tablespoon (5 g)

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 10 measures.
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.

• Models with glass jug (A): close the lid (E) at the top of the appliance and place the closed jug on the plate (fig. 6).
• Models with a thermal jug (B): before placing the jug on the plate, make sure the lid is closed (fig. 7).
• Models with electronic controls: The taste of the coffee can be optimized by pressing the My aroma button (Q). This function enables a process of percolation that releases the water in the filter more slowly or quickly. Filtering a little at a time improves the flavor and aroma of the coffee. To select a different taste, press My aroma button (Q) and you can loop between three different options.

To start the BREW press the /AUTO button (O) (fig. 8). The white light indicates that the coffee maker is operating and “BREW” appears on the display. The appliance emits a beep when delivery begins, then three beeps when it ends.

| Light
| Medium
| Strong

AUTO mode: From the active mode the user can activate the AUTO mode with a long pressure, more than 2 seconds, of the /AUTO button (O) (fig. 8). The clock icon will turn on. The BREW will start at the preset timer.

• Models with switch: Press the On/stand by button (M) (fig. 9). The light on the switch indicates that the coffee maker is operating. Coffee delivery will start after a few seconds. The coffee maker emits a beep when delivery begins, then three beeps when it ends. The taste of the coffee can be optimized by pressing the AROMA button (L). This function enables a process of percolation that releases the water in the filter more slowly. Filtering a little at a time improves the flavor and aroma of the coffee.
  To enable the function, press the aroma button (the light on the button comes on). To disable the function, press the button again. You are recommended to use the AROMA button when you do not want to make a full jug of coffee.

• In models with glass jugs: if you leave the On/stand by button (M) pressed after percolation has finished, the plate will keep the coffee at the ideal temperature. The appliance goes off automatically 40 minutes after the coffee delivery ends. To turn the plate off press the On/stand by button (M) button again.

• It is completely normal for the appliance to give off steam while the coffee is percolating.

• For a new brewing cycle switch off the appliance by pressing on/off button and restarting.

• Models with thermal jug: to pour the coffee, press the button as shown in fig. 10. To remove the lid completely, turn the lid as shown in fig. 7. After percolation has ended, the appliance goes off automatically.

•  For a new brewing cycle switch off the appliance by pressing On/stand by button (M) button and restarting.
  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
• Never immerse the coffee maker in water. It is an electrical appliance.
• The water tank filter (S) can be reached through the lid (E). Clean when necessary.

DESCALING

If the water in your area is hard, limescale builds up over time. These deposits may affect the correct operation of the appliance. You are recommended to descale the coffee maker every 40 coffee-making cycles.
Models with electronic controls only: When Descale button (R) flashes (fig. 11), (about every 40 cycles) you have to descale the appliance.
Models with switch : When the AROMA button (L) and On/stand by button (M) flash simultaneously (fig. 12), (about every 40 cycles) you have to descale the appliance.

• The appliance resets automatically after descaling.
• To descale, always use special commercially available descaling products for drip coffee makers.
• Dilute the product in the jug, following the instructions on the descaler pack;
• Pour the solution into the water-fill compartment;
• Place the jug on the warming plate;
• Press the Descale button (R) and then press /AUTO button (O) (in models with electronic controls) or press simultaneously the On/stand by button (M) and AROMA button (L) for more than 1,5s (in models with switch), percolate the equivalent of one cup then turn the appliance off;
• Rinse by operating the appliance with water only at least 2 times (2 complete tanks of water).
• Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.

FAULT CONDITIONS

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (UK ONLY)
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate 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 it in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse. If the plug is a molded-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 color of the correct replacement fuse cover is marked on the base of the plug. B)
If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the instructions provided below:
