[. . . ] Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. As the ground coffee absorbs water, the amount of coffee produced will be less. Nor should you fill the fresh water container with milk, prepared coffee, tea etc. If the mains lead is too long, you can push cable that is not needed into the compartment on the rear of the appliance. Place the coffee jug with lid on the warming plate (Figure 5) The coffee grinder has a bean container (Figure 1/E), which keeps the beans constantly aroma fresh. Prior to using for the first time Prior to preparing coffee for the first time, you should perform one or two brews with water only. Marking with cold water, and with the appliance switched on, allow the water to flow through into the coffee jug without using ground coffee or filter paper. Then swich the appliance on using the On/Off-switch (Figure 1/K) and press the start button (Figure 1/L). You can change the size of coffee ground to suit the strength of roast.

Press the release lever (Figure 1/C) to return the water supply to the brewing position (Figure 10). Push the cover of the grinding channel (Figure 1/G and Figure 14) back on until it engages. Descaling - to prolong the life of your coffee machine as a precaution we recommend descaling every three months. If you are using a gold filter, remove it from the filter insert before descaling. Use only an environmentally friendly descaling agent and always follow the manufacturer's instructions. First fill the fresh water container with water and then add the descaling agent. 0 Allow the descaling solution to work for approximately 15 minutes, then switch on the appliance. 0 Once the descaling solution has percolated through , switch the appliance off. 0 Rinse the coffee jug, jug lid and filter insert thoroughly under running water. If dark, oily coffee beans are used, the grinding channel needs to be cleaned more often than for light beans. [. . . ] to avoid blockages in the grinding channel: · Do not use frozen coffee beans, as water condenses on them on defrosting and can lead to blockages. If the water supply has been inadvertently swung out, use the release lever (Figure 1/C), to swing it back in position (Figure 10).
