Krups XP160050 User Manual

11
The “Pause and Serve” feature can function as long as the glass carafe is inserted into the
machine and sits properly on the warming plate and the swivel lter is closed properly.
When brewing coffee make sure the glass carafe is in place (see “Pause and Serve” section).
Place your appliance near an electrical outlet and release enough cord so that you can plug
in the machine (1).
Cleaning the coffeemaker
Always unplug this appliance before cleaning. Clean the lter basket, carafe, and lid in a
solution of warm water and mild liquid soap. These parts can also be placed in the upper
level of your dishwasher away from the heating and drying element for safe effective
cleaning.
Never use scouring agents.
Never immerse the appliance itself in water. To clean, simply wipe off with a soft, damp
cloth.
Never use a cloth to clean inside of the water chamber, as this might leave residual deposits
in the chamber. Just rinse with cold water periodically.
Decalcifying the coffeemaker
The warranty does not cover faulty or broken machines that are not properly descaled.
The coffeemaker must be decalcied regularly. The frequency depends on the hardness of
your water and how often you use the coffeemaker.
Recognizable indications that descaling is necessary are :
- increased noise during boiling,
- longer preparation time.
If usage is frequent, descaling should be carried out as follows :
- once a year for soft water,
- every 4 months for medium to hard water,
- once a month for hard water.
If you are unsure of the water hardness in your area, you may call your local water department.
Dissolve a packet of descaling solution in 1/2 quart water and pour into the water tank. If you
do not have a descaling solution, you can use a mixture of water and white vinegar: pour ½
quart white vinegar in ½ quart water. Run this through 2 or 3 times as if making coffee, but
using no ground coffee. The hot descaling solution must be allowed to cool down before
being poured into the water tank. Finally do the same 2 more times using plain water.

7. ESPRESSO
Making espresso
1. Place your appliance near an electrical outlet and release enough cord so that you can
plug in the machine (1).
2. Place the lter (L1) into the portalter (L2) and rotate lter inside portalter to secure it (14).
3. Fill with ground coffee. Tamp the coffee lightly and clear any excess grounds from the rim
of the lter holder. This will assure proper t to the brewing head (15).
!
ATTENTION !
Do not tamp coffee too tightly.
