Brewing coffee

Remove the water tank with lid (C) from the appliance.
Open the water tank lid and fill the water tank (C) with cold drinking water. Fill water above the Min level and do
not exceed the Max level as indicated on the water level gauge (D) (Fig. 6).
Place the water tank with lid (C) back onto the appliance making sure it is fitted properly.
Open the lid (B) by lifting the release lever (A).
For ground coffee brewing: use the ground coffee holder (O), then fill it with ground coffee up to the MAX fill line and place it inside the insert holder (N).
For capsule coffee brewing: insert a suitable K-Cup capsule into the capsule holder (P), then place it inside the insert holder (N).
Close the lid (B) by pressing down the release lever (A) until it clicks.
Adjust the height of the cup holder (J) according to the size of your cup/mug. Small cup/mugs should use the upper drip tray mounting slots (I), and larger cups/mugs use the lower position (Fig. 7).
Place a cup/mug in the center of the cup holder (J).
Connect the plug (L) to a suitable socket outlet. All indicator lights flash 3 times, then switch off. The appliance is now in standby mode (Fig. 8).
Adjust the strength of the brew by pressing the cup SIZE button (F) and toggling between 6 – 14 oz (Fig. 9).
Once the cup size has been selected, press either the CAPSULE button (G) or the GROUND button (H) to begin brewing (Fig. 9). The selected brewing option button stays lit.
Once brewing is complete, all indicator lights switch off. Disconnect the plug (L) from the socket outlet.
NOTICE
The brewing process can be stopped at any time by either pressing the CAPSULE button (G) or the GROUND button (H) according to the type of coffee being brewed.
Allow the appliance to cool down before removing the ground coffee holder (O)/capsule holder (P) from the insert holder (N). Remove with caution as recently used coffee grounds or capsules can be hot.

Brewing tips

NOTICE: A small proportion of water is absorbed by the dry coffee. The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the water that was added at the beginning.

Always use fresh cold drinking water when filling up the water tank (C).
Empty the drip tray (K) after each use to prevent it from overflowing (Fig. 10).
Do not reuse coffee grounds.
Store unused coffee grounds and capsules in a cool, dry place. After opening, reseal the coffee tightly to maintain freshness.
Clean all accessories after each use.
