Safety information
DANGER! – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
► Ensure that the base containing the electrical connections
never comes into contact with water! Allow the base to dry
completely if it accidentally becomes wet.
► Use the appliance only with the supplied base.
► Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet or damp
when the appliance is in use. Route the cable so that it
cannot be trapped or damaged in any way.
► Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables to be
replaced as soon as possible by a qualified technician or by
our Customer Service Department to avoid the risk of injury.
► Always remove the plug from the mains power socket after
use. Switching the appliance off is not sufficient; it will
remain live for as long as the plug is connected to the
power socket.
► Do not allow any liquid to run over the appliance’s plug
connections.

DANGER! – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
There is a risk of electric shock!
WARNING! – RISK OF INJURY!
► Do not operate the appliance with the lid open, otherwise
the automatic switch-off cannot work. Boiling water could
then spray out over the rim.
► Bursts of hot steam may be released. The jug also becomes
extremely hot during use. It is therefore always best to wear
oven mitts when handling the jug.
► Ensure that the appliance is stable and vertical before
switching it on. Boiling water can cause the appliance to
fall over if it is not set up stably.
► Treat the jug with great care. Broken glass can cause cuts.
► Never fill it with more water than up to the MAX marking.
Otherwise, boiling water may splash out and cause scalds.
► Do not open the lid while the water is boiling.
► Appliances may be used by persons with reduced physi-
cal, sensory or mental capabilities, or a lack of experience
and/or knowledge only if they are supervised or have been
instructed how to use the appliance safely and have under-
stood the potential risks.
► This appliance may be used by children aged 8years or
over, if they are supervised or have been told how to use
the appliance safely and are aware of the potential risks.
► Cleaning and user maintenance tasks must not be carried
out by children unless they are aged 8 years or over and are
supervised.

Before first use
■ Remove all packaging materials from the appliance.
■ Rinse out all parts of the brewing system (brewing chamber 0, riser pipe
q, sieve w) and the jug 3carefully (see section "Cleaning and care").
Before first use, proceed as follows:
1) Remove the jug 3from the base 5.
2) Fill the jug 3up to the MAX mark and add a teaspoon of lemon juice (or
lemon juice concentrate). If you have no lemon, you can add a teabag (or
a teaspoon of loose leaf tea) directly to the water.
3) Insert the brewing system into the jug 3.
4) Close the lid 1and place the jug 3on the base 5.
5) Switch the appliance on with the On/Off switch 8. The control lamp 4
and the On/Off switch 8light up. Wait until the control lamp 4goes off.
6) Switch off the appliance using the On/Off switch 8and clean the appli-
ance as described in "Cleaning and care".
The tea maker is now ready for use.
Operation
CAUTION! PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Do not add any sugar to the tea maker. Do not heat any milk or alcohol in
the tea maker. This will irreparably damage the appliance.
NOTE
► Green tea is not suitable for brewing in the tea maker. The ideal brewing
temperature for green tea is around 70°C. At higher brewing temperatures,
such as those used by the tea maker, tannins are released. This makes the
tea taste bitter.
1) Remove the jug 3from the base 5.
2) Open the lid 1and remove the brewing system. Place the brewing system
on a level system.
3) Add the required amount of water to the jug 3. Never fill water to more
than the MAX marking or less than the MIN marking.
DANGER! ELECTRIC SHOCK!
► To prevent scalds and electric shocks, ensure that the water in the jug 3
never overflows.

4) Remove the brewing system and pull the riser pipe qwith the sieve w
upwards.
5) Add the desired quantity of tea or teabags to the brewing chamber 0.
NOTE
► Ensure that no tags or bag threads remain in the device.
6) Replace the brewing system in the jug 3. Ensure that the riser pipe qfits
into the recess on the floor of the jug 3. The brewing chamber 0must be
inserted with the flattened side towards the handle 2.
7) Close the lid 1.
8) Replace the jug 3on the base 5.
9) Insert the mains plug into a mains power socket and set the On/Off switch 8
to the position "I". The control lamp 4and the On/Off switch 8light up.
The water is now boiled, pressed upwards through the riser pipe qand flows
through the brewing chamber 0back into the jug 3.
After the water is boiled, the appliance switches to the keep-warm function. The
control lamp 4goes out. Only the On/Off switch 8remains lit up. As soon as
the water cools down, the tea maker boils it again. The control lamp 4lights up
again during the boiling process.
NOTE
► As the water is fed back through the brewing system when it is re-boiled,
remove the brewing system from the jug 3after the first brew.
WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!
► The brewing system is very hot! There is a risk of burns! Use oven gloves
when you touch the brewing system.
NOTE
► The longer you keep the drink warm and the more liquid evaporates, the
stronger the drink will become. We therefore recommend drinking the tea
as quickly as possible after it is initially brewed.
■ You can interrupt the boiling process at any time. To do this, set the On/Off
switch 8to the "0" position. The boiling process stops.
■ Once you remove the jug 3from the base 5the boiling process stops.
CAUTION! PROPERTY DAMAGE!
► Always allow the jug 3to cool down before refilling it with cold water
for another brewing cycle. Otherwise, excessive tension in the glass could
cause the jug 3to break.
