Safety
General Precautions (continued)
CAUTIoN
• To prevent jamming of the grinding mechanism, use only the types of coffee
beans specified in this manual.
• Remove the drip tray before closing the front panel door. Closing the front
panel door without the drip tray removed could damage parts of the coffee
maker.
• To prevent clogging of the internal parts, use only filtered water as specified
below. Do not used distilled water.
• Do not put any part of your coffee maker in a dishwasher. Many of the parts
are not dishwasher safe.
• Keep the coffee maker keys in a safe place. Replacement keys are not
covered by the warranty.
• Clean the coffee maker regularly according to the chart below. See the
Care and Cleaning section for complete instructions.
Before operating your coffee maker for the first time...
1) Make sure you are using the right type of water.
• Call your local water company. Ask them for the water hardness level of the water
supplied to the building where your coffee maker will be installed.
• If the water hardness level is above four grains per gallon (4 gpg):
»
For model E24CM76GSS, contact a water treatment specialist and have a water
treatment system installed to reduce the water hardness level to 4 gpg or less
according the installation instructions.
»
For model E24CM75GSS, pour only filtered water with a hardness level of 4 gpg or
less into the water tank. Do not use distilled water.
2) Flush the system to remove bacteria that may have accumulated during storage and
shipping (See page 39).
IMPORTANT: For model E24CM76GSS, regardless of the water hardness
measured, Electrolux highly recommends installation of the Electrolux filter kit. The
coffee maker requires periodic decalcification. Decalcification will be much simpler
with the filter kit installed according to the installation instructions.
