Program the time by turning the BREW/control knob (k)to the right to increase, to the left to decrease. Confirm by pressing the CLOCK button (l) or the BREW/control knob (k). The time is displayed. Fig. 2 and 3.
   
2. You may also program or change the time at any other time. Press the CLOCK button (l) and turn the BREW/control knob (k). Set by pressing the CLOCK button (l) or the BREW/control knob (k). The time is displayed.

Note: Your clock is now programmed and will continue to display the time even when your appliance is on standby.

If the appliance is disconnected or there is a power failure, the clock will return to 1:00 PM. The steps above must be repeated to program the clock again.

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Remove stickers from your coffee maker.
• Before first use, run your coffee maker without coffee to flush the circuit. Fill the water tank up to the maximum level and begin a cycle by pressing the BREW/control knob (k).

Your appliance was designed to operate only with cold or room temperature water.

MAKING COFFEE

• Open the lid of the coffee maker (b). Fig. 4.
  
• Fill the carafe (g) with cold or room temperature water. Pour the water in the water tank (c) Fig. 5.
  
  The water level indicator displays the number of cups. Do not exceed 12 cups. Fig. 6.
  
• Place the carafe (g) with its lid on the warming plate (h) making sure that it is properly placed to trigger the mechanism that will allow the coffee to flow. Fig. 7.
  
• It is best to remove the filter holder with the filter before adding the ground coffee. If ground coffee has accidentally been poured into the water tank, please do not run the cycle; instead clean the water tank. The ground coffee could plug the water circuit.
• Add 1 KRUPS (v) spoonful of ground coffee per cup. Do not exceed 12 spoons (2 ounces). Fig. 10.
  
• Make sure the filter holder (i) is inserted. Fig. 8. Place the permanent filter (j) in the filter holder (i) Fig. 9a or a No. 4 paper filter Fig. 9b. If you use a paper filter, be sure it is fully open and properly positioned in the filter holder.
  
  
• Close the lid (b).
• Press the BREW/control knob (k). The control knob lights up to indicate that the coffee maker has begun the BREW cycle. It beeps once when it starts brewing. Fig. 12.
  
• When the cycle has ended, the 'keep warm' feature turns on automatically (the countdown showing the time during which it will remain warm is displayed on screen). The BREW/control knob (k) flashes slowly.
• After the default keep warm time of 2 hours your appliance beeps 3 times and the BREW/control knob (k) switches off.
• At any time during the brew cycle, you may turn off the coffee maker by pressing the BREW/control knob (k). The light on the BREW/control knob will also go out. It beeps 3 times prior to turning off.
  Even if the brew cycle has ended, there is still hot liquid in the filter. Wait a few minutes for the rest of the liquid to flow into the carafe before removing the filter.

Note:

• The amount of coffee in the carafe at the end of the cycle is less than the amount of water poured into thewater tank, since the ground coffee and the filter absorb about 10% of it.
• The water tank is equipped with an overflow outlet at the rear of the appliance. If you add too much water, it will come out of this opening.
• Clean the permanent filter in between each use, or use a paper filter.

• To avoid overflowing, the carafe should be properly placed on the warming plate of the coffeemaker, otherwise the hot water or hot coffee may overflow.
• The coffee maker becomes very hot during the brew cycle. Handle it carefully.

DESCALING

• Why descale
  Limestone forms naturally in your coffee maker. Descaling preserves the coffee maker and ensures it will lastlonger and provide quality coffee over time. Limestone can permanently affect the machine's performance. Malfunctions associated with scaling will not be covered by the warranty if the product is returned.
• When to descale
  • When descaling is necessary, your machine will tell you and the CLEAN icon will appear on screen.
  • However, the descaling frequency depends on the hardness of the water and the number of brew cycles. Itmay be necessary to descale your coffee machine if you notice the following signs, even if the CLEAN message does not appear on the screen: longer cycle time, excessive steaming, more noise at the end of the cycle, stopping mid-cycle; this means that your machine needs to be descaled.
  • Descaling should be done about once a month, depending on the hardness of the water.

How to descale your KRUPS coffee maker

• Remove the filter cartridge. Fig. 27.
  
• Use the KRUPS descaling solution® or 5 fl. oz of white vinegar diluted in 17 fl.oz of cold or water at room temperature or 1.5 oz of citric acid diluted in 17 fl. oz until the crystals have completely dissolved. Fig. 28.
  
• Pour the solution into the water tank (without coffee). Fig. 29.
  
• Press the CLEAN button (o) and then the BREW/control knob (k) to start the descaling cycle. Fig. 30.
  
• The cycle lasts for 30 min.
• Please wait until the end of the cycle.
• If the water tank is not empty, please launch another descaling cycle by pressing CLEAN button.
• To rinse the machine, run 2 full 12 cups cycles with water but without coffee. Fig. 31.
  
• Repeat the operation if needed.
• Replace the filter cartridge. Fig. 35 and 36.
  
• The warranty does not cover coffee makers that do not work, or do so poorly, due to lack of descaling.

DUO FILTER CARTRIDGE

• Your appliance allows you to filter with the DuoFilter filters: double action filter – reduces chlorine and scaling – based on active plant ingredients. This Duo Filter allows you to enjoy the most delicate aromas of your coffee and reduces the need to descale.
• In its upper part, the filter cartridge support is equipped with an indicator for replacement of the cartridge.
• Select the number of the month when you replaced the filter. It will display the month when you should change your filter according to water hardness. Fig. 34.
  
• To change the filter, remove the DuoFilter from the tank. Fig. 33.
  
• Open it by unlatching and opening the lower part and replacing it. Fig. 35.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
The coffee does not brew or the appliance does not turn on.	Make sure the appliance is plugged into a working outlet and the screen flashes. The water tank is empty. There is a power outage. Unplug the machine, then plug it back in. The clock should be reprogrammed after a power outage. The automatic stop feature has turned off the appliance. Turn off the appliance and then turn it back on to make more coffee. For more information, please consult the "Making Coffee" section.
The appliance seems to leak.	Make sure the water tank has not been filled beyond the maximum limit.
Brewing takes a long time.	It may be time to descale the appliance. Several minerals can accumulate in the coffee maker's circuitry. Regular descaling of the machine is recommended. This may need to be done more often depending on the hardness of your water. For more information, please consult the "Descaling" section. do not take the appliance apart.
The filter basket overflows or the coffee flows too slowly.	The coffee maker needs cleaning. There is too much coffee. We recommend using one measuring spoon or one soup spoon of ground coffee per cup. The ground coffee is too fine (Please note that: ground coffee for espresso won't work in a drip coffee maker). There is ground coffee lodged between the paper filter and the filter holder. The paper filter is not opened properly or is not well placed. Rinse the filter holder before inserting the paper filter so it will adhere to the damp walls of the filter basket. Be sure you have not inserted a paper filter at the same time as the permanent filter. There is more than one paper filter in the filter holder. Make sure the filter basket is pushed down all the way.
The coffee tastes bad.	Clean the coffee maker. The ground coffee is not right for your coffee maker. The proportion of coffee and water is not sufficient. Adjust to suit your taste. The quality and freshness of the coffee is not the best. The water is of poor quality.
The coffee does not flow.	See if there is water in the water tank. The coffee flow system may be obstructed. You may clean it simply by rinsing with water.
The time is not correct (there is a time difference).	The timer is synchronized and depends on your electrical network. If there is a time difference, we recommend that you program the time once a week to be sure it is correct.

If your appliance does not always work properly, call customer service in your country.
