4. Insert the filter basket into the appliance. The insert guide nipple
at the upper brim of the filter basket must point to the back side of
the coffeemaker. Gently press the filter basket down until it snaps
into place.
5. Fold the seamed edges of a suitable coffee filter bag (size: 1
x 4), and carefully lay out the interior of the filter basket with the
filter bag.
note: Ensure not to damage the filter bag. Always use one single suitable filter bag that
will not protrude from the filter basket, but fill out the filter basket completely. Ensure that
the filter bag doesn’t bend or fold. Use a fresh filter and fresh coffee powder for each
brewing cycle.
CauTion: Do not overfill the filter bag to avoid that the coffee will overflow to the brim
of the filter basket. Do not use more than 12 level measuring scoops of coffee.
6. Fill in the desired amount of coffee powder in the filter bag. In most cases, a level measu-
ring scoop of coffee powder pro cup of coffee is suitable.
7. Close the cover of the coffeemaker.
warning: Ensure the glass carafe is correctly placed on the warming plate. The
cover of the coffeemaker and the lid of the glass carafe must be closed
during operation. Otherwise, hot water and steam could spill out, and the Pause &
Serve mechanism will not open. The cover of the coffeemaker may not protrude from the
upper edge of the coffeemaker. If the Pause & Serve mechanism is still closed the coffee will
overflow over the brim of the filter basket and drip onto the base of the appliance.
The coffeemaker and the glass carafe get very hot during the brewing cycle. Please handle
with care. Do noT lift the cover of the appliance during or immediately after the brewing
cycle. Even if no water is draining from the filter basket, extremely hot water/coffee can
spill out from the filter basket and cause scalding. Do not move the coffeemaker during or
immediately after operation.
8. Press the ON/OFF button to switch on the coffeemaker and start the brewing cycle.
Additionally the heating element of the warming plate is activated. The indicator lights of
the ON/OFF button (red) and the WARMER button (orange) illuminate.
9. Ensure that water/coffee is dripping from the filter basket several seconds after switching
ON the coffeemaker. If not, check whether the glass carafe is correctly in place on the war-
ming plate. If the problem still persists, IMMEDIATELY unplug the unit and wait 10 minutes
before opening and checking the filter basket. (See: ›Solving Problems‹)
The brewing time depends on the amount of water in the water reservoir. Expect a brewing
time of about 15 to 20 minutes for 12 cups of coffee. The warming plate will keep your
coffee warm for up to 2 hours. Thereafter, the appliance switches OFF automatically.
Tip: When the brewing cycle needs noticeably too much time but at least after 3 months,
you should decalcify your coffeemaker. Doing so, you will save energy and avoid that the
taste of your coffee will be affected by lime deposits. (See: ›Decalcifying Your Coffeemaker‹)
Connected to the power supply, the appliance uses a little amount of electricity, even when
switched OFF. Do not leave the appliance connected to the power supply needlessly.
