an easy-clean, permanent filter it cuts down on waste as there’s no need for paper filters
and is perfect where space or kitchen facilities are limited.
Here at Lakeland, our award-winning family-owned business still offers the same excellent
quality, value for money and exceptional customer service as when we founded the
company back in the 1960s.
Our products are hand-picked and thoroughly tested so you can be sure that everything

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The coffee machine must be filled with coffee and water and your mug must be
in place before you plug in and switch on the machine.
1. Fill the travel mug or your own mug with cold tap water.
2. Lift the lid using the lip at the front of the lid and fill the water tank with the water
from your mug. You may need to hold the lid open.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of burning or scalding from hot coffee or steam do not fill
beyond the 14 oz level inside the tank. Always use a minimum of 260ml of water.
tab
8oz = 260ml
10oz = 300ml
14oz = 430ml
3. Place the empty travel mug or your own mug onto
the tray. If using the travel mug, take off the lid
first. If you are using a shorter mug, take care as
hot coffee can splash out of the mug when brewing
through the appliance.
4. Put the filter basket into the brewer with the tab on
the right. It will sit neatly inside.
5. Take the filter, add 15g of ground coffee. You can
add more or less according to your taste, but always
use a minimum of 6g and a maximum of 20g per
mug. Gently shake the filter to distribute the coffee
evenly.
6. Put the filter into the filter basket with the tab on
the right. It will sit flat neatly inside.
7. Close the lid.
8. Plug in and switch on at the socket. When first
turned on the LCD will illuminate blue and 12:00 will
flash on the screen.
9. Switch on the brewing cycle by pressing the
ON/OFF button. The red ‘ON’ light will illuminate and
flash to indicate the brewing cycle has started. The

WARNING: If no water or coffee is coming out of the filter basket, unplug the
appliance IMMEDIATELY and wait for 10 minutes before opening and checking the
filter.
10. When the brewing process ends and the water tank is empty, there will still be hot
liquid in the filter. Wait for a few minutes for the rest of the liquid to drop through
into the travel mug or mug.
11. When the brewing cycle is complete the red light will go out and the screen will just
show a flashing 12:00.
12. Add the lid to the travel mug to keep your coffee warm.
13. To brew another travel mug or mug of coffee, repeat the process after allowing the
coffee machine to completely cool, approximately 5 minutes.
14. As coffee grounds absorb water during the brewing cycle, the amount of brewed
coffee is slightly less than the amount of water added to the water tank.
When the coffee grounds have cooled, open the lid and carefully remove the filter
by holding the tab, lifting it out of the filter basket. Discard the used coffee grounds,
these are compostable, and rinse the filter.
15. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the Digital To Go Coffee Machine off.
16. Switch off and unplug at the socket when not in use for a long period of time.
NOTE: The thermostat inside the appliance will need to cool completely before
you can press the ‘ON/OFF’ button again to make another mug. This will take
around 5 minutes.
When the ‘ON/OFF’ button is on and illuminated, the appliance must run a full
brewing cycle until the light switches off. If you switch off the coffee machine
before the brewing cycle has finished, when the appliance is switched back on
it will continue the cycle until it has finished. This will not be a full cycle.

PROGRAMMING YOUR DIGITAL TO GO COFFEE
MACHINE
SETTING THE CLOCK
• You can set the clock on your coffee machine at anytime whilst the appliance is
switched on.
• Press the HOUR button, which is a 24 hour clock (0Hrs – 23Hrs) and then the MIN
button to set the correct time.
• Press and hold the buttons to scroll through the numbers quickly. When the number
displayed is getting close, release and press the appropriate button to increase one digit
at a time.
SETTING A PRE-SET AUTO MODE
• Remember to put in your coffee and water in advance.
• To confirm the automatic time to start brewing, simply press the PRO button and the
time you have set will appear on the control panel.
• Your coffee machine will automatically begin brewing at the set time. When the
brewing cycle begins the red light will illuminate and flash, to highlight that the coffee
machine is in operation.
• To cancel the Pre-set Mode, press the PRO button for about 3 seconds to cancel and the
word AUTO will disappear from the control panel.
• When the brewing cycle has finished the control panel goes off and just the time is left
on.
• To reset for the next time i.e. the next morning, press the PRO button and AUTO will
appear on the control panel.
WARNING: If after 10 minutes the coffee marker has not cooled down completely, the
water tank may have overheated. Open the lid with care as steam will escape and could
causes scalds of burns.
PLEASE NOTE: If you try to restart the coffee machine before it has completely cooled, it
may result in an incomplete cycle. The appliance has a thermal reset switch to prevent it
from overheating and may shut down.
• To set an automatic time for a brewing, first press the PRO
button. PROGRAM will appear in the top left of the control
panel. Next set the time you want your coffee to start brewing
by using the HOUR and MIN buttons, following the steps above
of ‘Setting The Clock’.
• Once time has been set AUTO will appear at the top of
the control panel to show it is set to Auto mode and the
left LED will be green.

HINTS AND TIPS
• Use the travel mug or a large mug. If you use a smaller mug the coffee may splash out
of the mug.
• Ground coffee does not stay fresh for as long as coffee beans. If you are using ground
coffee, watch expiry dates and buy in small amounts.
• If you are grinding coffee beans, set your grinder to a fine/medium grind, and try to use
the ground coffee within a week of grinding. Very finely ground coffee may cause the
filter basket to overflow.
• Store unused coffee grounds in a cool, dry place. If you open a packet of coffee tightly
reseal it and store in the fridge to maintain freshness.
• To avoid the coffee machine overflowing, use less ground coffee when brewing decaf or
flavoured coffee.
• For hotter coffee when using a mug, rinse your mug with warm water before brewing.
USING COFFEE BAGS OR TEA BAGS
Place the coffee bag or tea bag into the filter and follow the ‘Instructions For Use’.
Use 1 bag per mug.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Question: Why does the coffee taste too weak?
Answer: There is not enough ground coffee being used. Add more coffee to the
filter. You must always use a minimum of 6g of coffee per mug.
Question: Why is coffee overflowing from the filter basket?
Answer: There is too much water in the water tank. Use the travel mug to measure
the amount of water you are putting into the water tank.
Do not fill beyond the ‘14 oz’ mark inside the tank.
Question: Why is the filter basket overflowing or the coffee brewing too slowly?
Answer: There is too much coffee in the filter. The maximum amount of coffee per
mug is 20g. The coffee may be ground too finely. The filter may not be in
the correct position.
Question: Why is the coffee not brewing or the coffee machine not turning on?
Answer: The water tank maybe empty or the coffee machine is not plugged in.
Check the water tank is filled and the coffee machine is plugged in.
Question: Why is the coffee machine taking a long time to brew?
Answer: The coffee machine may need cleaning. See ‘Care and Cleaning’,
the coffee machine may need descaling.
Question: Why won’t the red ‘ON’ LED illuminate to switch on when pressed?
Answer: The thermostat inside the appliance will need to cool completely before
you can press the ‘ON/OFF’ button again to make another mug.
This will take around 5 minutes.
Question: When I switch on the coffee machine the red ‘ON’ LED is already
illuminated?
Answer: The appliance has been switched off before it has run a full brewing cycle.
If you switch off the appliance before the brewing cycle has finished,
when switched back on it will continue the cycle. This will not be a full
cycle.
Question: There seems to be a small amount of oil on the top of my brewed coffee?
Answer: This is due to the release of oil from roasted coffee beans. Stronger
roasted coffee beans release more oil. If you perform a regular cleaning
program it will prevent an oily build up.
