replacement of the power cord. If
repairs are needed, please send the
appliance to one of our customer service
departments. The address can be found
in the appendix to this manual.
Before using the appliance for the first time
Before initial use, the appliance should be
thoroughly cleaned as described in the
section General care and cleaning. In
addition, let the appliance run through two
brewing cycles without a pad inserted.
Water container
Fill the water container as follows:
- Grip the recess on the water container
with your thumb on the container lid,
and lift the container out of the
appliance.
- Remove the lid.
- Fill to the maximum-level mark
(approx. 750ml) with clean, cold water
(use fresh water each day).
- Replace the lid.
- Replace the container in the appliance
and push it down to open the valve in
the bottom of the container.
Deposits of dirt and lime may cause the
seals in the outlet at the bottom of the
water container and the seals around the
valves to leak. Check the seals carefully
each time the water container is inserted
and, if necessary, carefully remove any
deposits.
After extended periods of non-use, we
recommend that you let the appliance run
through at least two brewing cycles without
a coffee pad inserted; this will help to flush
and clean out the system.
