Operation

Before using your coffee machine for the first time:
Open the lid. Fill the tank with water up to the MAX (12 cup) level. Use the coffee
pot or a measuring jug to accurately pour in the water. Close the lid.
DO NOT OVERFILL.
Place the pot centrally on the hotplate. Ensure that the hole in the lid of the pot
engages with the spring valve in the machine to ensure an even flow of liquid.
Press the ON/AUTO/OFF button to start. The Indicator light glows red.
After all the water has run into the pot:
Press the ON/AUTO/OFF button twice. The Indicator flashes a steady Blue. This
indicates that the machine has been turned off. After a few seconds the Blue light
will extinguish.
Discard the contents of the pot. Allow 5 minutes for the unit to cool down. Carry
out two more full operating cycles using fresh cold water to thoroughly clean the
machine.
Points to remember:
Disposable filters if used should be specially made for coffee makers. Use size 4
(10-12 cups).
Make sure you use coffee specially ground for filter use.
NOTE: You do not need to set the time to brew coffee for instant use, but if
you do not set the time you will not be able to reliably use the Programmed
Auto Start feature

PREPARING COFFEE

of coffee grains into the filter - typically 6-7 g. per cup, or to taste. You may use a
disposable filter if you prefer.

maker will brew. Fill the water tank with fresh cold water to the level correspond-
ing to the number of cups required. Follow the markings on the side of the water
