Our products are engineered to meet the highest stand-
ards of quality, functionality and design. We hope you
thoroughly enjoy your new Braun appliance.
Caution
Please read the use instructions carefully and
completely before using the appliance.
• This appliance must be kept out of reach of children.
• Before plugging into a socket, check that your voltage
corresponds with the voltage printed on the bottom of
the appliance.
• Avoid touching hot surfaces, especially the hotplate.
Never let the cord come in contact with the hotplate.
• Do not put the glass carafe on other heated surfaces
(such as stove plates, hot trays, etc.).
• Do not microwave glass carafe.
• Before you start preparing a new pot of coffee,
always allow the coffeemaker to cool down for ap-
prox. 5 minutes (switch off the appliance), otherwise
steam can develop when filling the water tank with
cold water.
• Braun electric appliances meet applicable safety
standards. Repairs on electric appliances (including
cord replacement) must only be carried out by author-
ized service centres. Faulty, unqualified repair work
may cause accidents or injury to the user.
• This appliance was constructed to process normal
household quantities.
• Always use cold water to make coffee.

Installing the water filter cartridge
1. Unpack the water filter cartridge % .
2. Remove the space compensator
‚ from the water
tank.
3. Insert the water filter cartridge. (Be certain to keep
the space compensator as it must be installed in the
water tank whenever the water filter cartridge is
removed.)
4. The water filter should be exchanged every two
months. To remind you, set the dial
& to the month
that the water filter should be replaced.
N.B.
Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, after a
long period of not using it, or after installing a new water
filter cartridge, run the coffeemaker through one brewing
cycle using the maximum amount of cold, fresh water
without any ground coffee.
II Making coffee
Fill tank with cold, fresh water, press filter push button Á
to open filter basket, insert a No. 4 paper filter, put in
ground coffee, place the carafe on the hotplate and
switch on the coffeemaker. For more convenience when
filling with or disposing of ground coffee, the filter basket
can be easily taken off its hinge. A drip-stop prevents
dripping when the carafe is removed to pour a cup before
brewing is finished. Carafe should be immediately
returned to hotplate to prevent the filter basket from
overflowing.
Brewing time per cup: approx. 1 minute. Amount of
brewed coffee in the carafe will be below initial filling level
as water is retained by ground coffee.
Model KF 550 is equipped with an automatic shut-off
feature (auto-off). After two hours of operation the
coffeemaker will automatically switch off.
III Water filter
The water filter improves coffee flavor by removing
chlorine, bad tastes and odors as well as scale. If the
cartridge is replaced regularly (every two months), it
provides not only better tasting coffee, but also can
extend the life of your coffeemaker by preventing
calcification. Braun water filters are available at your
retailer or Braun service centre.
IV Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. Never
clean the appliance under running water, nor immerse it
in water; only clean it with a damp cloth. All removable
parts are dishwasher-safe.
V Decalcifying
(without illustrations)
If you have hard water and you use your coffeemaker
without a water filter, it has to be decalcified regularly.
When using the water filter cartridge and exchanging it
regularly, you normally will not need to decalcify. How-
ever, if your coffeemaker takes much longer than usual to
brew, it should be decalcified.
Important: Replace water filter with the space compen-
sator during any decalcification procedure.
• You can use a commercially available decalcifying
agent, which does not affect aluminum.
• Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the
decalcifying agent.
• Repeat the procedure as many times as necessary in
order to reduce the brewing time per cup to a normal
level.
• Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run
through at least twice to clean the coffeemaker.
