before making coffee for the first time
1 Make sure the selector knob is in the off position ( ) and that the steam/hot
water knob is closed by turning clockwise (don’t overtighten).
2 Lift out the tank, remove the lid and fill with cold water. Never fill above the MAX
level marked. Alternatively remove the lid and fill the tank whilst in position on
the coffee maker.
● We recommend using filtered water from a Kenwood water filter as it produces
better coffee and reduces limescale. Never use fizzy water.
● Re fit the tank. Make sure that it is correctly located and apply light pressure if
necessary to ensure the valve at the bottom of the tank connects with the
bottom of the machine.
Note it is normal for water to remain in the compartment under the tank. This
can be dried using a sponge.
Important
Never operate the machine without water in the tank. Top up as
soon as the level gets low.

wait until the OK light glows.

cups of water runs into the bowl.

run into the jug.

right
ᕡ. Ensure it is firmly located.
4 Position a cup under the filter holder. If you use the same cup that the coffee
will be served in it will be preheated. Alternatively the cups can be pre heated
on the cup warming tray.
5 When the OK light glows, turn the selector knob to the coffee position ( ).
6 Allow water to flow out until the OK light goes out, then turn the selector knob
