Power Failure Back-Up - Krups COFFEE TIME PLUS Instruction Book

.,.
In case you wish to change the
"Wake-Up" time, press the
program membrane, and
proceed as described above.
PREPARING "WAKE-UP"
COFFEE
To enjoy delicious "Wake-Up"
coffee that is freshly brewed and
hot, set the "Wake-up" time you
desire. (See setting "Wake-up"
time.)
. Put in the ground
coffee.
. Fill the water chamber with
the desired number of cups.
. Place carafe back on
warming platform.
. Press the "Auto" membrane
and the red light will
illuminate (see figure ~).
. At the pre-programmed
time,
the auto light will go "OFF",
and the light above the ONI
OFF membrane will go on
automatically indicating that
the brewing process
has
begun.
In this position coffee will be kept
warm for two hours. After that
time, the heating mechanism
will
shut-off automatically~(See
Under "AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
AND WARM KEEPING").
"STOP'N SERVE" FEATURE
The "Stop'n Serve" feature is
KRUPS' answer to the impatient
coffee drinker's clamor for "a
quick cup of coffee!" This device
automatically stops the flow of
brewed coffee through the filter
cone if the glass carafe is
removed from the warming plate
during the brewing cycle. You
have about 20 seconds between
the removal of the carafe and its
being reinserted
to allow the
serving of one or two cups of
coffee.
The "Stop'n
Serve" device
closes off the filter cone so
effectively that there is virtually
no coffee-drip onto the warming
plate (one
drop, at most!) Once
the carafe is replaced, the
brewing cycle and the flow of the
coffee into the carafe are
resumed.
CAUTION
If the coffee does drip onto the
warming plate after removal of
the carafe, it is usually an
indication that the small black
seal in the filter holder is missing
or defective. (In this case you
can call our Customer
Service
Department at 1-800-526-5377
or in New Jersey call [201] 767-
5600). It is also possible that too
much ground coffee has been
placed into the paper filter. This
causes the water that jets into
the filter cone
to over flow
between the paper filter and the
sides of the filter cone.
This over flow
carries coffee
grounds
with it that interfere with
the snap-shot action of the filter
holder, thus allowing brewed
coffee to continue to drip
through. .
If this blockage and
I
subsequent dripping do occur,
replace the glass carafe
immediately and allow the.full
brewing cycle to run its
course. Do not swing out the
swivel filter until the brewing
cycle is completed.
POWER FAILURE BACK-UP
In case of a power surge andlor
failure, an electronic device will
keep all functions stored for 15
minutes.
For Example:
If there is a power surge andlor
failure lasting for longer than 15
minutes, and the "Auto" light is
"ON", then your wake-up coffee
will be cancelled out.
If your coffemaker is "ON" and
there is a power failure it will
temporarily suspend the coffee
making process, but will
continue if the power is restored
within 15 minutes. (If the power
failure is longer than 15 minutes
you will have to press the "ONI
OFF" membrane again to
resume coffee making).
If the power failure lasts longer
than 15 minutes, all functions
including time and pre-
programmed time have to be
reentered again. This will be
indicated by a blinking LED
display.
CLEANING
. Always unplug this appliance
before cleaning. Clean the
filter holder, the carafe and
carafe lid in a solution of hot
water and mild liquid soap.
These parts can also be
placed in the upper level of
your dishwasher for safe
effective cleaning.
.
Never use scouring agents.
. Never immerse the appliance
itself in the water or any other
liquid. To clean, simply wipe
off with a soft, damp cloth.
. Never use a cloth to clean the
inside of the water chamber,
as this might leave fuzzy
deposits in the chamber. Just.
rinse with cold water,
periodically.
DECALCIFYING
Although your KRUPS coffee
maker has the most advanced
water heating and pumping
system, it will periodically need
cleaning with a decalcifying
agent.
. This is due to the calcium
(limestone) found in drinking
water.
. In some areas where the
water is hard,
you
will need
to decalcify more frequently
than in areas with soft water.
. It will also depend upon how
often you use your coffee
maker.
