not put your hand in it.
∙ Always close the jug with its screw cap.
∙ The coffee can be poured out easily with
half a turn of the cap, without removing it.
∙ Do not leave the jug unattended near
where children may reach it.
Descaling
∙ To keep the coffee maker in excellent
working order, we recommend that you
descale it at regular intervals.
∙ Descaling is required when the fi ltering
process takes longer than normal, or
if the appliance becomes noisy during
operation.
∙ An excessive build-up of lime deposits is
very diffi cult to remove, even when strong
descaling agents are used. It may also
cause the brewing system to leak. To
avoid damage caused by the build-up of
deposits, descale the appliance after thirty
to forty brewing cycles.
∙ Any warranty claim will be null and
void if the appliance malfunctions
because of insuffi cient descaling.
∙ We recommend using vinegar for
descaling.
∙ Mix 80 ml of vinegar essence with the
indicated maximum amount of cold water.
∙ Pour this mixture into the water reservoir.
Place a paper fi lter into the fi lter holder
(without ground coffee) and operate the
appliance as described in section To
prepare fi lter coffee. Repeat the descaling
process if necessary. Ventilate the room
during the descaling process and do not
breathe in the vinegar vapours.
∙ To clean the appliance after descaling,
operate it a further three times with cold
fresh water only (without using ground
coffee).
∙ Do not pour descaling agents into
enamelled sinks.
Cleaning and care
∙ Remove the plug from the wall socket
and allow the appliance to cool before
cleaning.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, never
immerse the coffee maker in water. It
may be cleaned with a slightly damp
cloth, using a mild detergent. Wipe dry
afterwards.
∙ Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners.
∙ Dispose of the coffee grounds and rinse
the fi lter. As a natural substance, the
coffee grounds may be composted.
Thermo jug:
∙ Do not dismantle the thermo jug, do not
wash in a dishwasher and do not immerse
it in water.
∙ Rinse the inside with water and wipe the
outside with a clean damp cloth after use.
∙ To remove coffee deposits from the inside
of the thermo jug, fi ll it with hot water
and add a tablespoon of dishwasher
detergent. Close the screw cap and
leave the jug for some hours. Rinse out
thoroughly with water afterwards.
