Information about the thermos pot
The pot is designed as a serving pot which keeps the contents hot and it works
best when filled to the limit. The heat retention action is greatly reduced when
small amounts are left in the pot or when the pot is only partly filled. It works
best if the pot is rinsed out with hot water before use.
The lid is not fully sealed due to the brew-through design so that it can also be
opened easily when the coffee has cooled down. Do not apply too much force
when screwing on the lid. Keep the pot upright whenever in use.
Turn the lid anticlockwise to open until the arrow on the lid is lined up over the
spout.
The double-thickness stainless steel container is unbreakable. Nevertheless, it
should be treated with care.
Rinse the pot out regularly. Iron particles from the water may cause localised
corrosion on the stainless steel surface. Remove these deposits immediately with
a cleaning agent for stainless steel.
Start-up
Prior to first use and after the unit has not been used for longer periods, perform
a boiling process with fresh water without coffee grounds. Fill the tank only to
the mark for 9 cups, as the pitcher may otherwise overflow.
Automatic switch-off
The machine has an automatic switch-off function to ensure that it does not
overheat when switched on. The machine only switches off when all the water
has run out.
The machine can be switched off before by pressing the ON/OFF switch. This
might be necessary if you have accidentally switched the machine on without
adding any water. Do not pour water into the machine while it is still hot. Allow
the machine to cool down for a few minutes before adding water.
Brewing coffee
Open the cover on the appliance and pour cold water into the reservoir. The
water level indicator on the reservoir shows the quantity of fresh water required
to brew the desired number of cups of fresh coffee.
Note: If you have accidently filled in too much water, you can pour it out
through the rear overflow outlet. Do not tilt the appliance forward to empty the
reservoir.
To fill in coffee powder open the swing-out filter by pressing the OPEN button.
Fold a paper filter size 1 x 4 along the fold lines and place it into the filter. The
paper filter is not allowed to stick out beyond the rim of the filter and must
therefore be pressed slightly into place by hand.
Fill in the required quantity of coffee powder. Depending on your personal taste,
use approximately 5 to 7 grams of medium ground coffee per cup. If the coffee
powder is ground too finely, the filter may overflow.
Push the thermos pot under the filter with its brew-through lid closed. Connect
the power plug to a shockproof socket and press the ON/OFF button.
The indicator light indicates the starting oft he brewing process. After comple-
tion of the brewing process that appliance switches off automatically and the
indicator light goes out. Wait for a few minutes until all the coffee has run into
