that of the device (see type label).
Connect the device only in case of compliance! Take note of the security advice!
The device must only be connected to a properly installed single socket with
protective contact.
Never remove the power cable by pulling the cable itself; always grab the plug
housing.
•The electrical circuit of the socket must be secured to at least 16A. Only connect
the device to a wall outlet; do not use any extension cords or power strips.
•Place the device so that the plug is easily accessible so as to quickly disconnect the
device if the need arises.
5.3 Operation
Preparing the device
•Remove the cover and then remove the filter basket together with the riser pipe
from the water container.
•Before the first use clean the filter basket, cover and water container interior with
warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove
remnants of detergent.
ATTENTION!
Do not immerse the bottom of the device in water!
•Clean the riser pipe with warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
•To assemble the device, insert the riser pipe in the filter basket opening, and then
both parts insert together into the container. Please remember that the riser pipe
should be inserted into the heating hole in the bottom of the container in the center.

- 29 -
Brewing coffee
•Fill the water container with cold water (the necessary amount of water can be read
from the filling indicator level).
•Observe the minimum amount of coffee for brewing. It is:
for device A190145 → 20 cups → about 3.0 liters
for device A190165 → 30 cups → about 4.5 liters
for device A190195 → 30 cups → about 4.5 liters
ATTENTION!
Do not fill the coffee maker with water above the highest marks!
Never use warm water to brew coffee!
•Place the filer basket assembly into the coffee maker so that the riser pipe is inserted
into the heating hole in the bottom of the container in the center. Do not force the
riser pipe into position.
•Insert a round paper filter into the filter basket.
NOTE!
Only round paper filters should be used with the coffee maker with round filter
We recommend using BARTSCHER round paper filters numbers A190190 or
A190009250 for models Bartscher PRO Plus 40T (A190145) + Bartscher PRO Plus 60T
(A190165) and round paper filters numbers A190011 or A190011250 for models
Bartscher PRO Plus 100T (A190195).
•Pour ground coffee (about 6 grams per cup) into the filter basket.
NOTE!
The recommended amount of coffee may be increased or decreased according to
one's preferences.
•Close to coffee maker cover. When closing follow the instructions given on the cover.
WARNING!
During operation, never open the cover. There is a danger of burns!

- 30 -
•Start the coffee maker by switching the ON/OFF switch to position „I“. During the
boiling process the red operation control light in the switch will come on.
•The green heat retention light will come on when the boiling process has completed.
As soon as the brewing process is finished, the temperature is reduced automatically
and the coffee is kept at temperature proper for serving until the power plug is
disconnected from power supply or the ON/OFF switch is set to „O“.
NOTE!
To heat the coffee, remove the riser pipe and filter basket. Turn on the device.
The container must contain the amount of coffee for at least 12 cups.
•Unplug the cord when no liquid flows from the faucet of the standing device.
•The device is equipped with a heat/boil-dry protection. If the device is accidentally
turned on with little or no liquid, the protection device trips and the device switches
off automatically.
ATTENTION!
In the event that the overheating protection turns on,
disconnect the device from the power source (pull the
plug!) and leave to cool.
Remove the base and press the RESET button on the
bottom of the device quickly several times.
The coffee maker is now ready for use.
Serving coffee
•Place the cup or glass under the drain valve, press the valve slightly down and hold
until the cup is filled with required amount of coffee.
•Release the drain valve which is closed automatically.
•In order to obtain full flow press the valve lever fully down.
NOTE!
The drain valve is located a little higher, therefore the dregs remain on the water
tank bottom and do not enter the served coffee.
•When the device is placed in normal position and the coffee does not flow, remove
the plug and fill the device with fresh water after cooling down, when required.

- 31 -
Instructions and advices
NOTE!
The best results can be achieved when coffee is prepared for at
least 20 or 30 cups at once.
Remove the filter basket and coffee grounds immediately after the
brewing process. Thanks to this the coffee's flavor is maintained.
WARNING! Danger of burns!
Elements of the filter basket and grounds are very hot.
During removal, use appropriate protective equipment!
•Before starting the next batch of coffee, you should thoroughly rinse the coffee
brewer with cold water.
•Any drops arising from removing the filter basket and the wet coffee grounds should
be wiped clean.
•In order to re-heat cold coffee you should remove the filter basket and riser pipe
before connecting the device to the power.
•The coffee machine can also be used to heat water. Fill the cleaned water container
with cold water; insert the riser pipe and cleaned filter basket. Turn on the device, as
in brewing coffee.
•Turn off the device when the heating process is complete.
•Pull the power plug as soon as less than four cups of water are left in the water tank.
NOTE!
If the device will not be used, remove the riser pipe, otherwise it might get stuck
in the heating hole.
6. Cleaning and maintenance
6.1 Safety advice

oTo clean the faucet after use, fill the coffee maker with warm water and drain it
through the faucet.
Weekly cleaning
oIn the case of everyday use, the entire faucet mechanism must be thoroughly
cleaned every week. With less frequent use, it can be done less frequently.
oTo clean the faucet the upper part of the holder should be unscrewed. Clean the
faucet and also the connector between the faucet and the device with the small
brush. Rinse the upper part of the holder and screw it in again.
oThe inside of the fill level indicator can be cleaned with the attached brush.

firmly at the bottom and sliding it up (see the marked
position in the figure on the right), and then remove it.
By loosening the top screw the glass tube can be
removed by pulling it forward. Then remove the
mounting strip from the glass tube.
Insert the attached brush into the top of the
glass tube for cleaning.
After cleaning reassemble the glass tube and
mounting strip.

- 33 -

Descaling
ATTENTION!
In order to extend the use of the device and to ensure good quality coffee, the
coffee maker should be descaled regularly!
Claims will not be accepted if the coffee maker will not be descaled regularly,
as described in the instruction manual.
Such claims are not covered under the warranty!
oThe device is equipped with red descaling indicator. Depending on the hardness of
used water the indicator may be activated after some brewing cycles, which indicates
that the device must be descaled. At the same time the overheating protection is
activated and the device is turned off.
oAfter descaling the coffee maker must be turned on only after pressing the RESET
button in the base. When the device is turned on after descaling, the indicator is not
activated.
oFor descaling the device we recommend „Rapid descaler for coffee makers“
that we have tested.
Code-No.: 190065; packing unit: (30 bags 15 g each).

container. Make sure that the riser pipe has been carefully inserted in the heating hole.
oPour the descaling mixture into the water container of the coffee maker. Place the
cover on the water container and turn on the device.
oStart the brewing process and leave the coffee maker on for about 15 minutes.
oTurn off the device and drain the descaling mixture from the water container through
the faucet.
oAfter descaling, perform the brewing process at least three times to remove all
remnants of the descaling mixture.
oRinse thoroughly with warm water the water container, riser pipe, filter basket and
drain this water through the faucet.
