2. Preparing the Coffee Maker
2a. Before First Use
After unpacking your coffee maker
clean all the loose parts with warm
water and make yourself familiar with
the different functions. After reading
these instructions, let some water run
through the coffee maker to clean all
internal parts.
2b. The Display / Setting the Clock
and Timer
When you plug in the coffee maker
the display will illuminate for about 30
seconds and will flash “12:00”.
All indicator lights will be off.
2c. To Set the Current Time (Fig. 2)
Push and hold the hour button. The
hours will advance. The little dot on
the left upper side (indicating AM)
changes to a left lower dot (indicating
PM). When the correct hour shows up
release the button and push and hold
the minute button to set the minutes.
Attention: You must change the clock
when the time changes (Standard
Time, Daylight Savings Time).
2d. To Set an Auto-On Time:
If you want the coffee maker to start
brewing at a preset time automatically,
first push the program button ( ig. 2, P).
The display shows "12:00".
Immediately start pushing the hour
and minute buttons as described
above until the desired time shows
up. Within a few seconds the display
will revert to the actual time.
To check the programmed time just
push the program button. The display
shows the programmed time and will
switch back to the actual time.
To change the programmed time,
push the program button and repeat
as described above.
Attention: lashing Display!
If you unplug the coffee maker for
more than 10 seconds or if you have
a power failure, you will lose the
current time and program settings.
The flashing display indicates that you
must reset the current and programmed
time.
3. The Charcoal Filter Indicator
To start the electronic charcoal
indicator, push the blue filter button
( ig. 2, Q). The green indicator light
for the charcoal filter will turn on.
If you use spring water, bottled water
or distilled water and make coffee
right away, it is not necessary to use
the charcoal filter. Push the blue ilter
Button ( ig. 2, Q) and the green filter
indicator light will turn off.
Attention: Spring water and distilled
water might attract impurities when
sitting in the water container
overnight. The charcoal filter will
remove most of these impurities since
the water will be filtered just before
entering the heating element.
3a. Using the Charcoal Water Filter
Most tap water is treated with chlorine.
The charcoal filter removes up to 82%
of the chlorine and other impurities
found in tap water, improving the
taste of water substantially.
The charcoal cartridge sits in the
charcoal holder (see ig. 4). The
charcoal holder is already inserted
into the water container.
To activate the charcoal cartridge
pour four cups of water into the water
container and let it sit for approx. 3
minutes. Then turn the machine on
and let the water brew into the carafe
(see chapter 5e). Discard the water.
