7. Operation

DANGER! Risk of injury
through scalding!
It is always necessary to close the lid 1
when brewing coffee, as boiling water
may otherwise spray out!
During the brewing process, hot steam
escapes upwards through the lid 1. The
lid becomes hot. Do not touch it or put
your hands or other body parts in the
steam under any circumstances.
Do not open the lid 1 during the brewing
process.
Fill the coffee machine 6 only to the
maximum filling level (10), as hot water
may otherwise spray out.
Do not bend over the coffee machine 6
when you open the lid 1 and the con-
tents are still hot. There is a danger of
being scalded by escaping steam.
WARNING! Risk of material dam-
age!
Fill in water at least up to the 2 marking
on the water level indicator 5. Other-
wise the device may overheat.
Do not fill in water above the 10 mark-
ing on the water level indicator 5. If too
much water is put into the water tank 4,
it will run out again through the over-
flow 3 and under the base of the coffee
machine.
Never put fluids other than fresh drink-
ing water into the coffee machine 6.

7.1 Drip Stop

The filter holder 11 has an anti-drip
valve 10. This ensures that no coffee drips
out of the filter, when you remove the ther-
mal jug 8.
• In order to ensure that the valve opens
during the brewing process, it is impor-
tant that the filter holder 11 is inserted
correctly and the thermal jug 8 with
lid 9 is positioned completely in the cof-
fee machine. The lid 9 on the ther-
mal jug 8 opens the anti-drip
valve 10. Otherwise the filter
can overflow.
7.2 Opening and closing the
lid
In order that the appliance can work correct-
ly, it is important for the thermal jug 8 to be
placed in the coffee machine 6 and that the
lid 9 is closed.
• Figure B:
can be poured out.
• Figure C: lid 9 closed, the thermal
jug 8 can be placed in the coffee ma-
chine 6 or coffee is kept hot.

7.3 Brewing coffee

1. Lift up the lid 1 of the coffee machine 6.
2. Only fill fresh, cold tap water into the

ing with water (for not more than 10

3. Hold the filter holder 11 by its han-
dle 12 and lower it into the holder of
