Dear Customer,
All electrical and mechanical equipment needs to be cared for appropriately. It’s important to note
that using or storing the appliance in certain conditions may adversely affect its lifespan and
functionality. Always protect the appliance from the conditions listed below.
Using or storing the appliance in a wet, humid or damp environment can cause:
- deterioration and premature aging of the cover and electric insulation of the appliance,
- premature wearing and aging of the plastic and rubber components,
- rust and corrosion affecting electrical components and metal parts.
Using the appliance in a dusty environment or in the kitchen (where the air may be contaminated
with vapours from cooking oil or grease) can cause:
- greasy dust coatings on the mechanical and electrical elements and the casing of the appliance,
which could result in electrical contact failure or even complete breakdown, and could also
damage the plastic and rubber elements.
The effects of direct sunlight on the appliance can include:
- accelerated deterioration of the appliance casing and its plastic and rubber components,
damage to strength and other structural features. The appliance's surface may become porous
and fragile, which may result in a safety risk.
Continuous heavy duty use may cause:
- premature wear and tear,
- clogging of the water disperser due to the material deposited in the course of corrosion and
scaling, especially if regular descaling is not carried out,
- material fatigue due to multiple heating up cycles, and the overheating of the electric elements.
Storing the appliance in cold or frosty environment may cause:
- damage to the plastic and rubber components; if they become fragile,
this may result in a safety risk.
- oxidation resulting from condensation, and corrosion of the metal components.
Direct and indirect heat (e.g. being too close to an oven or a heating appliance) can cause:
- damage, deformation, softening or melting of plastic or rubber parts and casing elements, or
deterioration of electrical insulation.
Following the operating instructions and avoiding any of the conditions listed above will help you
increase the lifespan of the appliance. The manufacturer is not responsible if the appliance is stored
inappropriately or contrary to these instructions. You are recommended to have the appliance
serviced regularly by an authorised engineer to keep it working for as long as possible.

• Take care when using the glass coffee pot, particularly when filling or cleaning it. Do not put a pot filled with
hot coffee on a wet or cold surface. Do not use the pot if it is cracked, broken or the handle is loose. A
damaged pot should always be replaced; a pot with a loose handle may be repaired by a specialist engineer.
• Never wind the mains cable around the appliance, especially when it is still hot, because the cable could
break or the insulation might be damaged.
• Never lead the power cables around sharp corners or along or above hot surfaces. Never wind the power cable
around the casing of the appliance, and do not drag or lift the appliance by the power cable because it might
tear away or the insulation might become damaged. Use the cable cleat (holder) to store the excess cable
section. If the power cable of the appliance has become damaged, have it replaced at an authorised service
engineer. Do not connect the appliance to the mains if the power cable is damaged.
• Don't use the appliance in the presence of explosive or inflammable gases, vapours or liquids.
• In order to avoid overloading the mains power supply of your home, do not use another appliance which
consumes a large amount of power on the same circuit or mains socket or extension cord at the same time as
the coffee maker.
• Modifying or adding an extra length to the power cable of the appliance is forbidden!
• Should the cable of the appliance turn out to be too short, it may be extended only by using a commercially
available standard extension cable equipped with protective earth contact, and the extension cable must
have an electrical rating of at least 16 A (cables with lower electrical rating could heat up during use). If other
electric appliances have to be operated simultaneously with the same extension cable, their current
consumptions must be added up to determine the electrical rating requirement of the extension cable. If an
extension cable is used, both the mains socket and the extension cable must have protective earth. When an
extension cable is used, special care must be taken to avoid tripping over it.
• The coffee maker must only be used with the accessories supplied in the box. You must not use any additional
parts that are not recommended by the manufacturer; doing this may cause an accident or other problems
with the appliance. The manufacturer is not responsible if the appliance becomes damaged or defective as a
result of using inappropriate accessories.
• You must not disassemble the appliance, remove its cover or to try to repair it. Ignoring this advice could
cause a serious accident. There are no parts in the appliance that can be repaired at home or used for any
other purpose. Never operate the appliance with a damaged mains cable or connector. Do not use the
appliance if it fails to work normally or if it has been dropped or damaged. If the appliance becomes faulty for
any reason or if any moisture is allowed inside, take it to an authorised service engineer for checking and
repair. Only service engineers who have been trained and approved should repair the appliance. The
manufacturer cannot take any responsibility for unauthorised repairs or for any circumstances resulting from
not following the instructions.
