USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Note: Do not operate the percolator without
adding the minimum amount (500 ml) of water
rst.
1. Remove the cover, basket, lid and pump
tube with spring. Using the measurement
markings (located inside the body) ll the
percolator with the desired amount of
water.
2. For best results be sure to use cold water
when lling the percolator.
3. To help keep small coee grinds from
sifting through the holes in the basket, run
cold water over the coee basket.
4. Place the basket on top of the pump tube.
5. Add the desired amount of coee
according to the level markings on the
basket. Be certain to use a grind designed
for percolator coee, or use a coarse
grind. Finer grinds may sift through the
holes in the basket.
6. Place the basket and pump tube
assembly into the percolator, ensuring the
bottom of the tube ts into the well.
7. Place the basket cover on top of the
basket and push the cover onto the top of
the percolator.
8. CAUTION: When placing the lid onto the
percolator, ensure the steam outlets are
facing away from the handle to avoid
scalding.
9. Place the percolator onto the power base
and plug the base into a mains socket.
The light indicator will turn red.
10. Brewing begins within seconds and
continues at a rate of approximately one
cup per minute.
11. Once the brewing cycle is complete, the
indicator light will turn green to signal that
your coee is ready.
12. Warning: Ensure the percolating process
has stopped completely before removing
the cover.
WARNING! DO NOT touch the stainless steel
parts of the percolator as they will be hot.

CLEANING AND CARE
• Before attempting to clean the appliance,
empty it, remove it from the power base,
then remove the plug from the wall socket
and switch it o. Make sure the unit is
sitting evenly on a at surface before
commencing cleaning.
• Grasp the cover by the percolator handle
and gently pull it straight up.
Note: The appliance should be stored with the
cover o whenever possible.
• Gently pull the basket, basket cover
and the pump tube straight up out of
the body. Take the lid o the basket and
discard used coee grinds. The percolator
cover, basket, lid and pump tube (with
spring) can all be placed into the upper
rack of a dishwasher or washed in warm
soapy water and rinsed thoroughly.
Never immerse the percolator body or
power base in water or wash them in a
dishwasher.
• To clean the percolator body and base
simply wipe them with a clean, damp
cloth and dry them before storing.
• Do not use scouring agents or harsh
cleaners on any part of the percolator.
Note: The washer at the bottom of the
pump tube must move freely. Should
coee grounds become trapped near the
washer, loosen them with a tooth pick,
then run the tube under tap water to
clean it.
De-scaling
• Important: Failure to de-scale your
percolator may invalidate your guarantee.
To minimise scale build-up:
• Empty the percolator of water after each
use.
• Do not allow water to stand in the
percolator overnight.
• Using ltered water instead of tap water
will help to reduce limescale build up.
How to de-scale:
• Any regular de-scaling agent may be
used, provided the relevant instructions
are observed.
• Do not ll the percolator to the upper
mark to avoid spillage if the de-scaling
agent causes the water to foam.
• To clean the percolator thoroughly of any
de-calcication residues let it go through
several boiling cycles using clean water.
WARNING:
DO NOT IMMERSE ANY ELECTRICAL PART
OF THE APPLIANCE IN WATER SUCH AS
MOTOR UNITS OR PLUGS.
