lf you prefer milder coffee, turn the AromaSelect dial

in the direction of the symbol (b). Should you

prefer a stronger taste, turn the AromaSelect dial

towards the symbol. Regardless of the position

you select, the coffee will always have the same full

coffee flavour only with a milder or stronger after

taste.

With the cover of the water container 6 closed,

the selected setting can always be seen (c).

Making coffee

Place the prewarmed thermal carafe with the closed

lid (g) onto the stand of the coffeemaker 9. After

having filled coffee into the filter, snap the filter holder

in place and switch on the coffeemaker. Brewing

time is approx. 50 seconds per cup (including

dripping). A «drip stop» prevents dripping when

removing the carafe before brewing is finished.

Switch of

f the coffeemaker after the brewing is

finished.

Remove the filter holder 8 to empty grounds (d) (see

section «Cleaning»).

When filled compietely, the thermal carafe keeps

coffee hot for several hours. lf partly filled, the

warmkeeping time is reduced depending on the filling

level. Therefore, and in particular for small quantities

remaining in the carafe, it is absolutely necessary to

prewarm the flask before brewing coffee. In order to

obtain very hot coffee even when preparing small

quantities (up to 4 cups) we recommend to fill

approx. 1 more cup of water in the water container.

By switching on the appliance, allow this additional

quantity of water to run through the empty filter into

the thermal carafe, then switch off the appliance.

Wait for a moment before emptying the carafe. Then

you can fill coffee grounds in the filter and start the

real brewing cycle as described above.

Space compensator

The space compensator 4 in the water container 3

takes up the space which is intended for the water

filter cartridge D. Unless the water filter cartridge is

installed in the water container, the space compen-

sator must always be inside the water container

when filling with water and brewing to avoid overfil-

ling. Keep the space compensator

as it has to

be installed in the water container if you have to

decalcify your coffeemaker.

Water filter cartridge

The water filter cartridge D is suitabie for drinking-

water only. It gives you purer tasting coffee by

removing chlorine, bad tastes and odors as weil as

scale. Provided the cartridge is regularly replaced, it

provides not only better tasting coffee, but also can

increase the life of your coffeemaker by preventing

calcification.

Installing the water filter car

tridge

Unpack the water filter cartridge D.

Remove the space compensator 4 from the water

container and replace it by the water filter cartridge

D. Make sur

e to keep the space compensator as it

could be needed if you do not use the water filter any

longer at a future point in time or for decalcification.

After having installed a new water filter cartridge,

allow the maximum amount of fresh, cold water to

run through the coffeemaker.

In order to ensure the proper functioning of the filter

cartridge, exchange it after 2 months of regularly

using the coffeemaker. In order to remind you to

replace the filter in time, you may set the dial d

incorporated in the cover of the water container to

the month when the cartridge has to be exchanged.

Dial for water filter exchan

After having installed a new filter cartridge, set the

dial d 2 months further by turning it from the reverse

side of the water container cover.

Cleaning

Always pull the plug out of the socket before

cleaning. The appliance should never be cleaned

under running water nor immersed in water. Swing

out the filter holder and lift it off (d). To replace it, set

the curved protruding rim of the filter holder onto the

support bracket 7. Be sure that the rib under the rim

of the filter holder fits snugly into the groove of the

support bracket so that the filter holder closes easily

(d).

The filter support bracket can be taken off for clean-

ing. Swing it out, push it up and pull it diagonally

downwards (e). To replace, insert the top first.

Never submerge the thermal carafe in water nor put

it in the dishwasher. After using the carafe rinse it

with warm, clear water. The glass flask has to be

handled carefully. Do not use hard objects or scour-

ing powder to clean it. Never reach with your hand

into the flask.

Coffee stains which may form on the glass after

the carafe has been used for some time can be

removed easily by means of kitchen salt. Fill a

handful of kitchen salt into the thermal carafe and

add some cold water. Then swirl the mixture gently

until the salt crystals have eliminated the brown

stains in the glass flask. Alternatively a denture

cleaner tablet can be used: Fill the flask with warm
