process is completed, the heater plate will
keep the coffee warm.
• If you wish to pour a cup of coffee before
the filtering process has finished, remove
the jug from the heater plate, pour and
then replace immediately.
• When the jug is empty, turn the start/stop
switch off (the pilot light will go out), unplug
the appliance leave to cool for 10 minutes
before repeating the coffee-making
operation or cleaning.
Precautions to be taken while using the
appliance
• Do not use warm or hot water. Always use
cold water. Do not use any other liquid
except water.
• To prevent the water in the filter from
overflowing the jug lid should be correctly
fitted in order to ensure that the anti-drip
value is opened, enabling the water to
pass through to the jug.
• Leave the coffeemaker to cool before
refilling the deposit. If the deposit is filled
while hot, steam may be generated that
could cause burns.
• Keep the lid of the deposit closed so that
the water falls onto the coffee in the filter.
Do not open during the filtering process.
Do not move the coffeemaker while in use.
Anti-drip valve
The anti-drip value is activated when the jug is
removed from the heater plate. It enables the
jug to be removed to pour a cup of coffee
during the filtering process. Make sure that the
equivalent of at least two cups of coffee has
filtered into the jug before removing during the
filtering process.
Warning: replace the jug immediately after
pouring the cup of coffee to enable the
filtering process to continue. If the jug is not
returned immediately, the filter may overflow.
Filters
The coffeemaker is supplied with a permanent
filter. However, if you prefer disposable filters,
use cone filters 1x4.

6. HOW TO MAKE A PERFECT
CUP OF COFFEE
For an even more delicious taste and aroma,
use freshly ground coffee.
Use medium, not fine ground coffee.
Store coffee in a dry place. Once the packet
has been opened, close firmly and store in
the refrigerator in order to conserve its aroma.
The heater plate will keep the freshly made
coffee warm, but it tastes better if drunk
immediately after filtering.

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Always leave the appliance to cool before
cleaning and make sure that the start/stop
switch has been turned off and the
coffeemaker unplugged from the mains.
Clean the filter-holder, jug and jug lid in warm
soapy water. Rinse well and dry thoroughly
before replacing.
Clean the outside of the coffeemaker with a
damp cloth. Do not use detergent or abrasive
cleaning products.
Do not submerge the appliance in water or
place under an open tap.
8. DECALCIFICATION
• Depending on the hardness of the water
in your area and the frequency of use, the
appliance's tubes may become obstructed
by lime. You will know that this has
occurred when the filtering process starts
taking longer than normal. To prevent this,
you should decalcify your coffeemaker by
either using a commercial decalcifying
agent specially designed for coffeemakers,
or by following the instructions given
below:
- Fill the jug with a 1/4 vinegar 3/4 water
solution.
- Pour the solution into the deposit and
switch the coffeemaker on. Allow the
solution to drip down into the jug.
- Repeat this process 2 or 3 times,
