care and maintenance
1 Unplug the coffee maker and let it cool down before cleaning or storing away.
2 Tip the contents of the filter into the bin – don’t flush coffee grounds down the sink. They’ll
build up and cause a blockage.
3 You may clean the removable parts (including the carafe) in warm soapy water, then rinse
thoroughly.
4 Alternatively, you may wash them in the top tray of a dishwasher (but only in the top tray).
5 Clean the surfaces of the coffee maker with a damp cloth.
6 Don’t put the coffee maker in water or any other liquid.
7 Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
descaling
8 Scale build-up will cause the element to overheat, reducing its working life. It will also
lengthen the brewing time.
9 Descale regularly. If you notice the brewing time getting longer, shorten the time between
descalings. In areas of very hard water it may be necessary to descale as often as once a
month, or to use filtered water instead of ordinary tap water.
10 Use a proprietary brand of descaler suitable for use in plastic-bodied products. Follow the
instructions on the package of descaler. When descaling has finished, empty the carafe and
operate the coffee maker twice more with fresh water, but without coffee. Discard the water
to ensure that no chemical residues are left in the coffee maker.
, Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
