PREPARINGCOFFEE
Beforemakingyourfirstpot
of delicious coffee, we
recommend rinsingthe cof-
fee maker once or twice
with water only,without
ground coffee inthe filter
basket Thiswillremove any
possible dust which may
have settled duringship-
ping.
Be sure that the water
chamber is empty. Remove
any literature,etc. iffound
inthe water chamber.
. Thelid ofthe glass
carafemust be properly
positioned during the
brewingprocess.The
front hooks have to be
inside the carafe and
the rectangular part of
the lid has to be pushed
down so that itengages
with the handle of the
glass carafe.
. Toreleasethe lidpush
the rectangularpartof
the lid upwards.
. Makesurethat the swi-
vel filter is closed pro-
perly
during the brewing
process. When closing
the swivel filter you will
feel a noticeable resist-
ance when the handle
of the swivel filter is
approximately 112inch
away from the non-
removable side piece.
Push in firmly until the
handle touches the side
of the coffee maker.
. Caution: If the swivel fil-
ter is not pushed in pro-
perly the "Stop'N Serve"
trigger can not function.
This may cause hot
water or hot coffee to
overflow.
. The "Stop'N Serve"
mechanism is opened
as long as the glass
carafe is inserted into
the machine and sits
properly on the warming
plate and the swivel filter
is closed properly. When
brewing
coffee make
sure the glass carafe is
in place (see Stop'N
Serve section).
Putting in The Ground
Coffee
1. Swing out the spivel fil-
ter (C) (see figure 1) and
insert a paper filter. We
recomme~d using
KRUPS size 4. When
inserting a paper filter
make sure the seam is
pointing towards the
base of the filter holder
(see figure 2).
. Use your hands to con-
form the filter to the
contours of the filter
holder. This will enable
you to achieve better
results.
. If you prefer a more per-
manent filter, the
KRUPS "Gold Tone" fil-
ter # 053 is available as
an accessory. This can
be purchased from your
local retailer or call the
KRUPS Consumer Ser-
vice department.
2. Put ground coffee into
the filter holder (see
figure 3). We suggest
using
one level KRUPS
measuring spoon of
ground coffee for each
cup of robust brewed
coffee. After using your
KRUPS coffee maker
several times, you can
adjust the quantity to
suit your own taste.
. We do not recommend
using coffee that is
ground to a powder-like
consistency, as this will
prevent water from pas.
sing through the coffee.
3. Close the swivel filter
and make sure that it is
completely closed (see
figure4).
ATTENTION
. Make sure that the filter
paper does not fold over
when closing the swivel
filter, otherwise the
water might run be-
tween the filter paper
and the filter holder pro-
ducing a very weak cup
of coffee.
Filling
The Water Chamber
1. Open the hinged water
chamber lid (see figure
5). Pour in the desired
quantity of water (see
figure 6).
