shown on the identification plate.
• To eliminate any risk of injury and accidents or damage to
the appliance, if the mains lead is damaged, it should only be
replaced by a professional repair workshop recommended by
the manufacturer.
• Ensure that the electrical socket is located near the appliance
and easily accessible, so that the appliance can be quickly
disconnected from the mains in the event of an operating
problem.
• Repairs must only be carried out by approved specialist
workshops. Appliances that have been repaired incorrectly
represent a danger to the user.
• To avoid accidents, do not leave the appliance unsupervised
while it is in operation.
Safety
12

• To avoid accidents, multiple household appliances should
never be connected to the same electrical socket at the same
time, e.g. a three-way socket extension lead.
• Never immerse the appliance in water and do not use it out-
doors, as it should not be exposed to rain or any other kind
of moisture. – Danger of electric shock
• Should the appliance fall into water, remove the mains plug
from the socket before lifting the appliance out of the water.
Do not turn the appliance on again, but have it checked first
at an approved service point. The same applies if the mains
lead or appliance are damaged in any way, or if the appliance
falls on the floor. Danger of electric shock
• Always unplug the appliance from the mains when not in use,
before cleaning or in the event of operating problems. Never
pull on the mains lead. Danger of electric shock
• Do not place the mains lead or the appliance on hot surfaces
or near heat sources. Place the mains lead where it cannot
come into contact with hot or sharp-edged objects. Danger
of electric shock
• Never fold the mains lead or wind it around the appliance, as
this could lead to cable breaks. Danger of electric shock
• Do not use the appliance if you are standing on a damp sur-
face or if your hands or the appliance are wet. Danger of
electric shock
• Never open the appliance and do not attempt to insert metal
objects into the appliance interior. Danger of electric shock
Risks arising from the operation of the Coffee Maker
• When in operating mode, mains-powered heating applianc-
es reach high temperatures, which could cause injuries, e.g.
hotplate, boiling water and hot steam. Inform other users of
the dangers.
• To prevent overheating, never place the appliance directly
against a wall or under a wall-mounted cupboard. Do not
cover the appliance while it is in operation. Ensure that there
is always a clear and safe distance from any items that could
easily melt or burn.
Safety
13

• Never open the lid during the brewing process – Risk of
scalding
• Only open the lid when the brewing process is complete and
the appliance has cooled down fully.
• Only ever place and operate the Coffee Maker on a level,
heat-resistant surface, such as a kitchen worktop. Do not
place the appliance on other electrical appliances.
• Do not use the Coffee Maker for any other purpose than for
brewing coffee. Only fill the appliance with cold water. Never
use warm or hot water. Do not pour other liquids, e.g. milk or
ready-made beverages, such as tea or coffee, into the water
tank (possible taints in subsequent brews).
• Only ever use the supplied glass coffee jug. The lid must be
in place during preparation, as this de-activates the anti-
drip function. If you use a different coffee jug, the non-drip
function will not be de-activated, i.e. the coffee will not drip
through into the coffee jug, but will spill over the edge of the
filter.
• Only use OEM accessories. Use of non-original accessories
may lead to an increased risk of danger. We accept no liability
in the event of accidents or damage resulting from the use
of non-original accessories. Use of non-original accessories
resulting in damage to the appliance will invalidate any war-
ranty claims.
• Descale the Coffee Maker at regular intervals. If the cycle time
becomes longer or the Coffee Maker’s noise level changes or
increases, this is usually a sure sign that the appliance needs
descaling. Please follow the instructions in the chapter en-
titled Maintenance, Cleaning and Care chapter. If the appli-
ance is badly scaled, any warranty claims will be invalid.
• Never add water to the water tank before the appliance is
switched off and has cooled to room temperature.
• Do not remove the glass coffee jug until the filter is complete-
ly empty.
• The appliance is not suitable for use with an external time
switch or a separate remote control system.
• The container is designed for use with this appliance. It must
never be used on a range top.
Safety
14

• Do not set a hot container on a wet or cold surface.
• Do not use a cracked container or a container having a loose
or weakened handle.
• Do not clean container with cleansers, steel wool pads, or oth-
er abrasive material.
• Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing
cycles.
• A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance,
- If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord
should be a grounding 3-wire cord; and
- The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over,
snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by chil-
dren).
WARNING - Risk of Fire or Electric Shock. Do not
remove the bottom cover. No user serviceable parts
inside. Repair should be done by authorized service
personnel only.”

USER INSTRUCTIONS
PRIOR TO FIRST USE
After unpacking, check the device and ensure that all parts
are complete and for any potential transport damage – to
avoid any hazards. In case of any doubt, do not use the de-
vice and contact our customer service. The service address-
es are listed in our warranty terms and on the warranty card.
Your device has been packaged to protect it from any potential transport
damage.
• Carefully remove the device from its original packaging.
• Remove all packaging.
• Clean the device and all accessories and remove all remaining dust from
the packaging as described in Chapter “MAINTENANCE, CLEANING, AND
CARE”.
• Place the Coffee Maker near an electrical socket. Ensure there is unim-
peded access to the socket.
Ensure that the appliance stands on a level, dry, non-slip and heat-resistant
surface.
NOTE: To prevent a situation where the tank is overfilled and then the glass
coffee jug overflows, for safety reasons, we fitted an overflow opening for
the water tank on the rear side of the appliance. If you accidentally pour
too much water into the water tank, this will flow out of the opening, thus
preventing the glass coffee jug from overflowing and stopping spilt coffee
from causing damage.
• Connect the appliance to the electrical socket.
• Before the Coffee Maker is used for the first time, 2 pour a glass coffee
jug full of cold water (fill to 12 cup mark max.) into the water tank 6.
• Turn on the appliance, let the water run through and then pour it away to
remove any packaging dust residues.
• Do this 2-3 times.
WARNING

If your appliance does not function please
consult the chapter entitled PROBLEMS AND
SOLUTIONS.
• After every cycle, disconnect the Coffee Maker from the mains and allow
it to cool fully to room temperature.
• Clean the Coffee Maker as described in the section entitled Maintenance,
Cleaning and Care.

PRODUCT USE
Use of the Coffee Maker
When making coffee, never fill with water above the 12 cup
marker on the water tank. Otherwise the glass coffee jug will
overflow as there is insufficient capacity.
Descale the Coffee Maker at regular intervals. If the cycle time
becomes longer or the Coffee Maker’s noise level changes or
increases, this is usually a sure sign that the appliance needs
descaling. Please follow the instructions in the chapter en-
titled Maintenance, Cleaning and Care chapter. If the appli-
ance is badly scaled, any warranty claims will be invalid.
To avoid unnecessary energy consumption caused by unin-
tended use of the warming function, the coffee machine is fit-
ted with an integrated electronic cut-off, which automatically
switches the appliance and/or the heating function off approx.
2 hours after the brewing process starts. You can, of course,
switch off the appliance at any time using the appliance’s ON/
OFF button. Please follow the instructions in this operating
manual.
Preparation:
• Lift up the lid 5 and fill the water tank 6 with the desired quantity of
cold water. You can see markers for the number of cups on the external
water level indicator 7 . Always fill the tank to at least the lowest marker.
• Place the filter 17 in the filter holder 4. Make sure that the filter holder
4 and the filters 17 are inserted correctly, otherwise the lid 5 will not
close properly later.
• Now fill with ground coffee. We recommend per cup a heaped teaspoon
(approx. 6g) of medium or finely ground coffee.

The filter holder is fitted with a non-drip device (valve), which
prevents dripping once the glass coffee jug has been re-
moved. When you place the glass coffee jug on the hotplate,
the filter valve is pushed upwards. The filter outlet opens and
the fresh coffee runs through the opening in the lid into the
glass coffee jug. This ensures that the coffee can brew when
the lid is closed.
Only use the appliance with the glass coffee jug supplied
and with the lid on. If you use a coffee jug with a different
lid, the filter outlet will not open and the coffee will spill
out.
Once the coffee is made and you would like to keep the jug
warm, leave the glass jug on the hotplate. The coffee will
now stay warm. When the appliance switches itself off 2
hours after the start of the brewing process or you switch it
off manually, the hotplate will no longer stay warm.
Your Coffee Maker has a timer function, which allows you to
set when you want the appliance to automatically start the
brewing process. But you can still use the device without
setting the clock or timer function beforehand, i.e. make cof-
fee in the same way as other conventional appliances.
