5.2 Installation and connection

• Discard the complete packing material after unpacking the device.

• Place the device on top of an even and safe surface which supports the weight of

the device and is not heat sensitive.

• Not at any time should you place the device on an inflammable surface (such as:
table cloth, carpet, etc.).

• You must not position the device near open fireplaces, electric ovens/arc furnaces,
furnaces/electric heaters or other heat sources.

• The electrical circuit in the socket must be secured to at least 16A. Only connect the
device directly to the wall socket; do not use any extension cords or power strips.

• Place the device so that the plug is easily accessible and can be quickly removed
from its socket in case of necessity.

5.3 Operating

Prior to first use

• Prior to first use, run 2 to 3 portions of water without coffee through the coffee machine
in order to rinse the device (5.3 „Brewing coffee”, steps 1-8).

• After first use (depending on the construction of the system), a small amount of water
will always remain in the reservoir. Keep this in mind when pouring water again later.

• Always fill the water container with an
amount of water equal to the capacity
of the glass jug included with the
coffee machine. The amount of coffee
brewed will be the same as the
amount of water poured.

• If too much water is poured into the
water container, excess water will
drain out through the flow hose.

• Prior to use, rinse the glass jug and filter basket with warm water and a mild cleaning
agent, then rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.

Flow hose

CAUTION!

When cleaning, be aware of the
removable insert at the bottom of the
filter basket. After cleaning, replace the
insert in the filter basket so that it is
secured to the bottom of the filter and
will not be accidentally thrown out while
disposing of coffee grounds.

When brewing coffee without the insert,
the paper filter can block the filter basket’s
drip flow opening and hinder the flow of
coffee to the pot.

• Wipe the device’s exterior with a moist cloth, then dry with a soft cloth.

• Connect the device to an appropriate single outlet.

• The coffee machine is ready for use.

Brewing coffee

1. Remove the filter basket and place the appropriate Bartscher filter (article no. 190.013
or 190.002-250).

2. Pour the desired amount of coffee into the paper filter (approx. 6 g per cup).

3. Insert the filter basket into the guides and push until it locks into place.

4. Pour the appropriate amount of
cold fresh drinking water into the
water container, max. 1.8 litres.

The minimum amount necessary
is 0,5 litres.

CAUTION!

Fill the water container with only
fresh drinking water.

Never pour sugar, coffee, tea or milk
into the water container!

5. Place the glass jug on the lower heating plate so that its opening is located under the
opening in the filter basket.

6. Turn the coffee machine on using the power switch. The control light will come on.

6. Cleaning and maintenance

6.1 Safety advice

o

Before beginning with repair or cleaning works make sure the device has been
disconnected from power socket (pull the power plug!!!) and has cooled down.

o

Do not use any acid agents and make sure no water ingresses the device.

o

To protect yourself from electric shock, never immerse the device, its cables
and the plug in water or other liquids.

CAUTION!

The device is not suited for direct washing via water jets. Therefore, you must
not use any kind of pressure water jet for cleaning the device!

6.2 Cleaning and removal of deposits

Regular Cleaning

CAUTION!

Prior to cleaning, moving or transporting the coffee machine the water reservoir
must be emptied.

o

Because a small amount of water
always remains in the flow hoses and
water container (in accordance with the
way the system functions), if the device
is to be unused for a longer period of
time the remaining water should be
drained using the drain screw at the
back of the device (at the bottom),
then the device should be washed.

Drain screw

- 28 -

WARNING! Danger of burns!

Drain the water after the device and water have cooled down.
After draining, replace the drain screw.

o

For shorter periods of non-use, it is sufficient to rinse the coffee machine with fresh
water without using coffee powder.

o

Please repeat the steps 1 to 8 if you haven't used the coffee machine for longer
periods (5.3 „Brewing coffee”) without using coffee powder.

o

Glass jug and filter basket should be rinsed thoroughly after every use.

o

Use soft cloth only and make sure you never use any kind of abrasive agents, which
could scratch the metal.

o

Regular dish liquid and water are sufficient to remove marks of fingerprints, grease
or dirt.

o

In exceptional cases you may use vinegar- and water dilutions, as well as
commercial non-abrasive agents or commercial agents that are used for the
purification of stainless steel surfaces.

o

After the cleaning procedure you should use a soft and dry cloth to wipe dry and
polish the surface.

Regular removal of deposits

CAUTION!

In order for the equipment you have purchased to function properly, and for the
coffee it makes to be of the highest quality, you must regularly cleanse the device
to remove calcium deposit buildup!

Return claims will not be accepted if the coffee machine is not regularly cleansed
of calcium deposits - as in the manner described in instructions for use.

Such returns are not covered by the warranty!

o During use of the coffee machine, depending on the hardness of the local water supply

internal parts of the device can become covered in calcium deposits. In order to maintain
the device in the best possible condition and ensure the best possible results from each
brewing cycle it is necessary to clean the device of deposits from time to time.

o Under conditions of heavy use the coffee machine must be cleansed of calcium

deposits every two weeks, as well as cleansed of oils, stains from coffee, and other
heavy residues.

o For cleaning use commercially available coffee machine cleaning agents.
o You should also the deposit removal process the coffee machine when the brewing

process starts taking longer, when the brewing sounds get louder or in case the
coffee machine shuts off although there is still water in the tank (e.g. in case of very
hard water).

- 29 -

o For removal of calcium deposits we recommend „ Fast Scale Remover for

coffee machines” a formula tried and tested by us:

(Art. nr.: 190.065; Packaged in 30 portions of 15 g/each).

o Dissolve the calcium deposit removal formula (15g) in 1-1,5 litres of water.
o Pour the solution containing the calcium deposit removal formula to the water

container for the coffee machine.

o Insert the filter basket by sliding it along the appropriate guides (without coffee).
o Place the empty glass jug on the lower hot plate under the filter basket.
o Turn the device on as for normal use.
o After several drops of the solution have flowed into the glass jug, turn the coffee

machine off.

o Wait 5-6 minutes for the remainder of the solution to dissolve the deposits, then turn

the device on again.

o After the entire solution has flowed through the machine, turn the coffee machine

with the toggle switch ON/OFF off and dispose of the solution.

o After finishing the deposit removal process it is necessary to repeat the brewing

process 2-3 times using only water, in accordance with the instructions for use.
Water remaining in the coffee machine must then be removed with the help of the
flow valve located on the rear wall (at the bottom) of the device.

o Rinse the glass jug several times with warm water.
o The device is now ready to resume making coffee.
o After the calcium deposit removal process it is necessary to carefully wash hands.

WARNING!

During the calcium deposit removal process you must not leave the coffee
machine unattended!

It is necessary to wear protective gloves and goggles while performing the
calcium deposit removal process!

Cleaning the glass jug

Hard water may leave white, mineral residues inside the jug. The coffee itself normally

discolours these residues and leaves brown marks. In order to remove these residues
follow the steps below:

1. Take a half-and-half solution of water and vinegar.

2. Leave this solution in the glass jug for about 20 minutes and pour it out afterwards.

3. Rinse the glass jug thoroughly and wipe it dry using a dry, soft cloth. Do not use
any kind of abrasive agents as this could cause scratches which could again result
in cracks.
