part. Push in firmly until the
handle touches the side of the
coffee maker.
.
Caution: If the swivel filter is
not pushed in properly the
"Stop'n Serve" trigger can
not function properly. This
may cause hot water or hot
coffee to overflow.
.
The "Stop'n Serve"
mechanism is opened as
long as the glass carafe is
inserted into the machine
and sits properly on the
warming plate and the swivel
filter is closed properly. When
brewing coffee make sure
that the glass carafe is in
place (see Stop'n Serve
Section).
.
PUTTING IN THE GROUND
COFFEE
Swing the swivel filter to your left
(see figure 0). Insert a paper
filter (we recommend KRUPS
size 4) with the seam pointing
towards the handle of the filter
holder (see figure 0). Instead of
filter paper you can also use the
,tRUPS gold filter (model 'iF017).
(When ordering filter paper or the
gold filterfrom
KRUPS be sure
to indicate that they are for
model 'iF 136 & 'iF 137).
Put ground coffee into the paper
filter (see figure 0). We suggest
using one level KRUPS
measuring spoon of ground
coffee for each cup of robust
brewed coffee. After using your
KRUPS coffee maker several
times you can adjust the
measure to suit your own taste.
(Close the swivel filter and make
sure that it is completely closed
[see figure 0]).
Attention: Make sure that the
filterpaper
does
nottip over
when closing the swivel filter.
Otherwise the water might run
between the filter paper and the
filter holder producing a very
weak cup of coffee.
FILLING
THE WATER
CHAMBER
Open the hinged lid (see figure
0). Pour in the desired quantity
of water (see figure 0). The
water level indicator shows you
how much water you are filling
into the container.
The amount of freshly brewed
coffee delivered after the
brewing process will always be
slightly less than the amount put
into the water container. This is
due to the minimal absorption
of
the water by the ground coffee.
Therefore, put in a little more
water to begin with so that you
will have the number of cups that
you desire.
Replace the glass carafe on the
warming plate with the glass
carafe lid in position. Switch the
ON/OFF membrane to "ON".
The indicator light will go on
indicating that the brewing
process has begun (see figure
0).
SELECTING
THE FULLEST
FLAVOR
The KRUPS "Coffee Time Plus"
models have a full flavor selector.
If you want to make 1 - ~ cups of
coffee, press the full flavor
membrane switch (see figure
~). A GREEN UGHTWILL
APPEAR INDICATING THE 1 - 3
CUP SELECTON.
This will extend the brewing
cycles so that the water will seep
into the ground coffee slowly
enough to yield brewed coffee
that is rich, aromatic, and truly
delicious.
In order to have truly aromatic
coffee, the hot water must be
allowed to
seep
through the
ground coffee for a certain
minimum time.
For making 4 - 12 cups, select
regular brewing. (The green light
is not illuminated).
AUTO SHUT-OFF AND WARM
KEEPING
The KRUPS "Coffee Time Plus"
is equipped with an automatic
shut-off feature, that will turn-off
the machine 2 hours after the
brewing process has begun.
(The red indicator light will turn
off).
Benefits:
.
This will prevent coffee from
losing its flavor

hot longer, push the ON/OFF
membrane again.
