BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Fill the reservoir to the max mark, and run the appliance without coffee.

FILLING

1. Remove the carafe from the hotplate.
2. Open the lid.
3. Fill the reservoir with the exact amount of water required. Note that the brewing process will use all of the water that you put in the reservoir.
4. Make sure that the filter holder is pressed down all the way into position. It will click when correctly installed.
5. Put a #4 paper filter into the filter holder.
6. The reservoir is calibrated to give 12 large cups (at 125 ml per cup) and 18 small cups (at 83 ml per cup). For each large cup, add 6 g of ground filter coffee, and for each small cup, add 4 g.
7. Close the lid.
8. Replace the carafe on the hotplate.

SET THE CLOCK

It isn’t necessary to set the clock to use your coffee maker, but you will need to set it if you want to use the timer functions.

1. Put the plug into the power socket.
2. Use the hr and min buttons to set the correct time in 24-hour format.
3. The clock will retain its settings until the coffee maker is unplugged.

COFFEE STRENGTH

Pressing the button will make the brewed coffee slightly stronger. You can also use it if you are only brewing a partial carafe of coffee (i.e., not completely filling the reservoir). Your coffee maker will then alter the brewing process so your coffee will have about the same strength as it would if you had made a full carafe.

MAKING COFFEE

Note: If you want to use the coffee strength feature, press the button before pressing the button. The button will light up.

1. Press the button – the icon will appear on the display. The button will light up.
2. Shortly afterwards, coffee will start to drip into the carafe.
3. If you want to stop the coffee maker while it’s brewing, press the button.
4. Once brewed, the hotplate will keep the carafe warm for up to 40 minutes.

STATUS LIGHT

The status light will operate as follows:

USING THE TIMER

Note: Make sure the clock is set to the correct time. Use the hr and min buttons.

• Set the timer to the time you want to start brewing.
• Press the button.
• Use the hr and min buttons to set the time you want brewing to start.
• If you don’t press either the hr or min buttons within 5 seconds, the coffee maker will revert to “normal”, and the current time will show. Press the button to start again.
• When the time is programmed, press the W button. The button will light up, and the icon will appear on the display. Your coffee maker is now set to make coffee at the selected time.
• If you want to use the coffee strength feature when using the timer, press the f button now. The button will light up.
• If you want to cancel the timer before brewing has started, press the button.
• If you want to stop the coffee maker while it’s brewing, press the button.

KEEP WARM/AUTO SHUT-OFF

1. Your coffee maker will keep the coffee warm for about 40 minutes.
2. 40 minutes after brewing, your coffee maker will shut down, and the time of day will be displayed.
3. To wake the appliance, press the min button.

A QUICK CUP

If you want a quick cup of coffee before the brewing cycle has finished:

1. You can remove the carafe at any time. The non-drip valve will prevent coffee from dripping onto the hotplate.
2. To prevent the filter holder from overflowing, replace the carafe on the hotplate within about 20 seconds.
3. When you replace the carafe on the hotplate, the non-drip valve opens to let any remaining coffee through.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Unplug the appliance and let it cool.
2. Tip the contents of the filter holder into the bin.
3. Wipe all surfaces with a clean, damp cloth.
4. Press the lever at the rear of the carafe lid, above the handle, to open the carafe lid.
5. Hand-wash the carafe and filter holder.
6. Replace the filter holder. Make sure that the filter holder is pressed down all the way into position. It will click when correctly installed.
7. Close the lid, and press down to lock it.
8.  You may wash these parts in the top rack of a dishwasher.
