OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Unpack the coffee maker from the box, and remove all packaging. Wash the unit
before using for the first time.
Place the unit on a firm and stable surface. Ensure the on/off switch is in the “O” off
position. Place the plug in a wall socket and switch the wall socket on.
Lift the lid and pour water into the water tank. Ensure that the water level is always
below the “Max” mark. The numbers on the water level indicator correspond with the
number of cups of coffee or tea being made.
Lift the water pipe that runs from the water tank to the filter. Place coffee or tea in the
filter, to correspond with the amount of water in the water tank.
Lower the water pipe, and close the lid. The coffee maker is now ready for use.
Switch on the coffee maker using the power switch. The power switch will light up to
indicate that the unit is on, and the unit will start filtering hot water through the coffee
or tea.
The heating plate will automatically switch on when the coffee maker is switched on.
This will assist in keeping the coffee or tea warm. Please note: The heating plate will
become hot. Do not touch the heating plate if the coffee maker is on.
Once all the water from the water tank has filtered through into the carafe, switch the
coffee maker off using the power switch. Do not allow the unit to remain on if there is
no water in the water tank.
To heat the carafe briefly, switch the unit on with no water in the water tank, but for
short periods of time only.
Do not lift the lid of the coffee maker while it is in use, or for at least 10 minutes after
the coffee maker has finished brewing. This may cause burning due to steam
escaping.
NOTE: Paper filters can be used in this unit, but must be used once only and discarded.
