• Before brewing coffee for the first time, run one cycle with 10 cups (full carafe) of cold water with no
coffee filter, no coffee and without the “Duo Filter” in place.
• With the water tank full and the filter holder (B) locked in place press the On/Off button.
• When the brew cycle is complete dispose of the water.
THE WATER
The water is a critical factor in the taste of your brewed coffee. Filtered water is normally the best choice.
Never use hot water. Never pour milk, prepared coffee, tea, etc... into the water tank.
Your coffee maker can be fitted with a “Duo Filter”:
• The “Duo Filter” is an anti-chlorine and anti-scale filter.
The filter’s anti-chlorine action brings out the most delicate aromas of the coffee. Tap water often
has a level of chlorine which prevents the full aromas of the coffee from developing.
The anti-scale action of the filter helps prevent minerals in the water from collecting on the heating
element and in the hot water tubes. Scale eventually will slow the performance of the machine if not
kept in check. Change your “Duo Filter” after 70 cycles and when the machine begins to brew too
slowly.
The components of the “Duo Filter” (non-polluting activated carbon of plant origin and anti-scale
resin) meet all currently applicable food-related legislation. It contains silver salts that act as a
bacteriostat, which protects the consumer. This filter has been successfully tested by approved
laboratories.
Installing the “Duo Filter”:
• Take the “Duo Filter” (figure 1/J) out of its plastic bag. Rinse it under the tap for 1 minute.
• Fit the filter into place.
