IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces.
Use handles or knobs.

3. To protect against electric shock, do
not place cord, plugs, or appliance
in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near
children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use
and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, or has been
damaged in any manner. Return appli­ance to an authorized service facility
for examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of an accessory not recom­mended for use with this appliance
may cause injuries.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Do not use appliance for other than
intended use.

12. Scalding may occur if the filter basket
is opened or if the carafe lid is removed
during the brewing cycle.

13. The carafe is designed for use with
this appliance. It must never be used
on a range top or in a microwave.

14. Do not set a hot carafe on a wet or
cold surface.

15. Do not use a cracked carafe or a
carafe having a loose or weakened
handle.

16. Do not clean carafe with cleansers,
steel wool pads, or other abrasive
material.
Please note the Warning on the bot­tom of the appliance:
«To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, do not remove this cover.
No user serviceable parts inside.
Repair should be done by authorized
service personnel only.»

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power cord is provided to reduce
risks resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power supply cords
or extension cords are available and may
be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used follow these
guidelines:

INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

4

A. The marked electrical rating should be

at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance.

B. If the appliance is of the grounded

type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord.

C. The longer cord should be arranged

so that it will not drape over the coun­tertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.

Our products are engineered to meet the highest
standards of quality, functionality and design.
We hope you thoroughly enjoy your new Braun
Impressions coffeemaker.

Caution

• Please read the use instructions carefully and
completely before using the appliance.

• This appliance must be kept out of reach of
children.

• Before plugging into a socket, check that your
voltage corresponds with the voltage printed on
the bottom of the appliance.

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

• Never place the thermal carafe on a hotplate or
other heated surfaces, as this would damage the
carafe base.

• Caution: During and after operation, the metal
surfaces will get hot. Avoid touching hot surfaces,
especially the carafe base, to prevent burns or
scalds. Always use the handle to carry the carafe
and keep it upright.

• Do not use the thermal carafe in a microwave.

• Never submerge the thermal carafe in water, nor
clean it in a dishwasher.

• Before you start preparing a new carafe of coffee,
always allow the coffeemaker to cool down for
approximately five minutes (switch off the ap­pliance), otherwise steam can develop when filling
the water tank with cold water.

• Braun electric appliances meet applicable safety
standards. Repairs on electric appliances (inclu­ding cord replacement) must only be carried out
by authorized Braun service centers. Faulty,
unqualified repair work may cause accidents or
injury to the user.

• This appliance was constructed to process normal
household quantities.

• Always use cold water to make coffee.

I Setting into operation

Using the cord storage feature (1), you can adjust the
cord length by pulling it out of or pushing it into the
opening in the back of the coffemaker.

Water filter benefits and installation

The water filter improves coffee flavor by significantly
reducing chlorine and also prevents calcification
(scale) buildup. Provided that the cartridge is re­placed regularly (every two months), it not only brews
better tasting coffee, but can also extend the life of
your coffeemaker by preventing calcification buildup.
Braun water filter cartridges are available at your
local retailer, Braun service centers or
www.theessentials.com.

Installing the water filter cartridge

1. Unpack the water filter cartridge (E) and follow the

instructions given on the pack.

2. Remove the space compensator (B) from the

water tank.

3. Insert the water filter cartridge. (Be certain to keep

the space compensator as it must be installed in

the water tank whenever the water filter cartridge

is removed.)

4. The water filter should be exchanged every two

months. To remind you, set the water filter ex-

change dial (F) to the month that the water filter

should be replaced.

Note:
Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, after a
long period of not using it, or after installing a new
water filter cartridge, fill the water tank with water not
more than 8 cups of fresh, cold water and run the
coffeemaker through one brewing cycle without any
ground coffee in the filter basket.

Thermal carafe

The thermal carafe (K) is made of high-quality, double
walled, vacuum stainless steel. In order to create the
best heat-retention environment, it is essential to pre­heat the thermal carafe by rinsing with hot water.

• To remove the lid, turn the grip counter-clockwise

(a) and lift it off.

• To close it, place it on the carafe with the grip

positioned to the right of the carafe handle (b) and

turn it clockwise until it locks into place.

• During brewing, the coffee runs through a special

opening in the closed lid.

• If you want to serve coffee after brewing is

finished, press the raised end of the silver lid grip

(c) and keep it pressed down during pouring.
