0 Only clean the appliance using a damp

cloth; never immerse it in water. Only

the coffee jug and jug lid are dish-

washer safe.

Coffee grinder

From time to time (at the latest when a

blockage occurs), it is necessary to

clean the grinder channel to free it

from oily coffee residues.

To do this, proceed as follows:

0 Remove the plug from the mains.

0 Using a pointed object (e.g. a ball pen)

unlock the cover of the grinding chan-

nel (Figure 1/G and Figure

) and pull

the cover towards the front.

0 Swing out the water supply (Figure

1/D) using the swivel lever (Figure 1/H)

until it engages (Figure 9).

0 Insert a paper filter in the swivel filter.

0 Brush the coffee residue (including

that from the rear of the channel) into

the paper filter using a suitable item

(e.g., paintbrush) (Figure 15). The cof-

fee residue can also be removed using

a vacuum cleaner.

0 Then wipe the grinding channel with a

dry cloth.

0 Empty the paper filter.

0 Press the release lever (Figure 1/C) to

return the water supply to the brewing

position (Figure 10).

0 Push the cover of the grinding channel

(Figure 1/G and Figure 14) back on

until it engages. When doing so, press

the catch down with your finger. Check

that the cover is correctly positioned.

Your coffee machine is now fully ready

for use again.

If dark, oily coffee beans are used, the

grinding channel needs to be cleaned

more often than for light beans.

To avoid blockages in the grinding

channel:

• Do not use frozen coffee beans, as

water condenses on them on defrost-

ing and can lead to blockages.

• Position the appliance sufficiently far

away from the cooker or a deep fat

fryer as fat can cause a blockage.

• Always keep the container for the cof-

fee beans closed.

0 Every now and again clean the coffee

grinder (Figure 1/E) of oily residues

from the coffee beans using a dry

cloth.

Descaling - to prolong the life of

your coffee machine

As a precaution we recommend descal-

ing every three months. If you are

using a gold filter, remove it from the

filter insert before descaling. Use only

an environmentally friendly descaling

agent and always follow the manufac-

turer’s instructions. Do not use any

descaler based on formic acid. Nor

should you use a powder descaling

agent.

First fill the fresh water container with

water and then add the descaling

agent. Never vice versa.

0 Place the coffee jug with lid on the

warming plate.

0 Allow the descaling solution to work

for approximately 15 minutes, then

switch on the appliance.

0 Once the descaling solution has perco-

lated through, switch the appliance

off.

If necessary, repeat the descaling pro-

cedure.

0 Then repeat the procedure at least

twice using clear water.

0 Rinse the coffee jug, jug lid and filter

insert thoroughly under running water.

Activate the anti-drip valve several

times as it is rinsed.

Important

• If the water supply has been inadvert-

ently swung out, use the release lever

(Figure 1/C), to swing it back in posi-

tion (Figure 10).
