This document describes a coffee maker, providing instructions for its use, maintenance, and troubleshooting. The device is designed for domestic use, specifically for brewing filter coffee.
Function Description
The coffee maker features a digital display that shows the current time and allows for programming various functions. Key functions include:
- Coffee Preparation: The primary function is to brew filter coffee. Users can select the number of cups (10-15 cups maximum) and initiate the brewing cycle.
- Delayed Start (PROG): This feature allows users to set a specific time for the coffee maker to automatically start brewing. The "PROG" icon appears on the display when this function is active.
- Pre-Infusion Mode (AROMA): This function enhances the coffee's aroma by incorporating a pre-infusion phase for the ground coffee before the main brewing cycle. The "AROMA" indicator light illuminates when this mode is active.
- Keep Warm Function: After the brewing cycle is complete, the coffee maker automatically activates a keep-warm function for 30 minutes, indicated by a carafe symbol on the display.
- Clock Display: The device includes a clock that displays the current time, even in standby mode. The clock can be set and reset as needed.
Important Technical Specifications
- Power Supply: The coffee maker operates on a 220V-240V electrical supply. It must be connected to an earthed wall outlet.
- Capacity: The water reservoir and carafe are designed for 10-15 cups of coffee. The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 10 spoonfuls (70g).
- Altitude Limit: The appliance is designed for indoor domestic use at altitudes below 2000m.
- Water Temperature: The device is designed to operate only with cold or warm water; hot water should not be used in the reservoirs.
- Materials: The coffee maker includes stainless steel parts, which require specific cleaning instructions. The carafe is made of glass.
Usage Features
The coffee maker is designed for straightforward operation:
- Initial Setup: Before first use, remove all stickers and run a cycle with water only (no coffee) to rinse the circuit. Fill the water reservoir to the maximum level and start a cycle by pressing the ON/OFF button.
- Setting the Clock: Upon first plugging in, "12:00 AM" will appear and blink. Use the HR (L) and MIN (M) buttons to set the time. The time is confirmed automatically after 5 seconds or by pressing the CLOCK (O) button.
- Brewing Coffee:
- Lift the lid (B) and fill the carafe (G) with cold or warm water. Pour the water into the water tank (C).
- Place a paper filter into the filter holder (I), ensuring it is properly open and seated.
- Add 1 spoonful of ground coffee (P) per cup, not exceeding 10 spoonfuls (70g).
- Close the lid (B) and ensure the carafe (G) with its lid (E) is correctly placed on the heating plate (H) to activate the coffee flow mechanism.
- To activate the pre-infusion mode, press the AROMA (N) button before starting the cycle.
- Press the ON/OFF (J) button to start brewing. The device will beep, and a carafe symbol will appear on the display.
- To stop brewing mid-cycle, press the ON/OFF (J) button again.
- Delayed Start Programming:
- Ensure the clock is set correctly.
- Press the PROG (K) button to set the automatic start time. The "PROG" icon will appear.
- Use the HR (L) and MIN (M) buttons to set the desired start time. Confirmation occurs automatically after 5 seconds or by pressing PROG (K).
- To cancel a delayed start, hold down the PROG (K) button for 5 seconds.
Maintenance Features
Regular cleaning and descaling are crucial for maintaining the coffee maker's performance and longevity:
- General Cleaning:
- Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
- Do not clean the appliance while it is hot.
- Clean the coffee maker with a damp, soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive or strong cleaning products.
- For stainless steel parts, use a soft cloth or sponge moistened with hot water, then wipe dry.
- For stubborn stains, use a cloth dampened with white vinegar.
- Never immerse the appliance, power cord, or plug in water or any other liquid, and do not place it under running water.
- The removable filter holder should be washed with hot soapy water. Do not put any parts of the coffee maker in the dishwasher.
- Discard used coffee grounds and paper filters after each use.
- Descaling:
- Descaling is necessary when brewing cycles lengthen, excessive steam is produced, loud noises occur at the end of a cycle, or the cycle stops prematurely.
- The frequency of descaling depends on water hardness and usage, typically once a month.
- To descale, use a descaling solution or a mixture of 0.5L white vinegar diluted in 0.5L cold or warm water.
- Pour the solution into the water tank (C). Do not add coffee to the filter.
- Start the descaling cycle by pressing the ON/OFF (J) button.
- Wait for the cycle to complete.
- Rinse the machine by running two full 10-cup cycles with water only (no coffee). Repeat if necessary.
- The warranty does not cover malfunctions caused by a lack of descaling.
