Do not fill the water tank beyond the MAX indication.

holder. (Fig. 3)
Some types come with a permanent filter (Fig. 4).
,
Never use a permanent filter and a paper filter at the
same time.
Note:You can also order the permanent filter separately (see
chapter 'Ordering accessories').
4 Put ground coffee (filter-fine grind) in the
filter (Fig. 5).
- If you grind the coffee beans yourself, do not grind
them too finely.
- Take approx. two level measuring spoons of ground
coffee for each cup when you use large cups (for
instance the cups that come with the appliance).

socket. When you reinsert the plug into the wall socket, the

Note:The appliance does not keep the coffee hot.
- The after-brew drip stop prevents coffee from
dripping onto the drip tray after brewing.
This drip stop may cause some water to remain
behind in the filter holder. This does not mean that
the filter is clogged.
8 If you have used a paper filter, throw it away (Fig. 8).
9 If you have used the permanent filter, empty and
rinse it (Fig. 9).
Let the appliance cool down for at least 4 minutes before
you start to brew coffee again.

2 Clean the appliance with a moist cloth.
3 Clean the separate parts (drip tray, filter holder and
permanent filter, if any) in warm water with some
washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher.
Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance
and guarantees optimal brewing results for a long time.
In case of normal use, descale the appliance:
- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to
18dH);
- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over
18dH).
Contact your local water board for information about the
water hardness in your area.

acid). Do not put a filter or ground coffee in the
