A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13
Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off
from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the
house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must
be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted
when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to
BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT
be used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your
nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement
fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the
instructions provided below:
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

leave a space of at least 5 cm between the surfaces
of the appliance and the side and rear walls and at
least 20 cm above the coffee maker.
• Never install the appliance in environments where
the temperature may reach 0°C or lower (the
appliance may be damaged if the water freezes).
• Make sure the mains voltage corresponds to the
voltage indicated on the appliance rating plate.
Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed

HOW TO PREPARE DRIP COFFEE
IMPORTANT: the first time the appliance is used,
all accessories and the internal circuits must be
washed through by making at least two jugs of
coffee without using ground coffee.
• Open the door (fig. 2) at the front by pulling
the handle and use the jug to pour clean cold
water into the water fill compartment up to the
level indicated for the number of cups of coffee
to be prepared. Check the level of water in the
tank through the level window. You are recommended to use the jug provided as a measure
as the maximum capacity of the jug and the
tank are the same (fig. 3).
• Position the permanent filter (if present) in the
filter holder (fig. 4). In versions without permanent filter, use the paper filter.
• Place the ground coffee in the filter, using the
measuring spoon supplied, and level evenly
(fig. 5).
See table 1 for recommended quantities.
Use good quality, medium-ground coffee for
drip coffee makers.

* 1 level measure = 1 tablespoon (5 g)
Increase or reduce the quantity of coffee
according to taste.
The quantities given in the table are indicative
and should be adapted to your personal taste
and the type of coffee.
Never ex ceed the
maximum quantity of 12 measures
(models with glass carafe) or 10 measure (models with thermal carafe) to avoid
the coffee spilling.
The type of coffee has a considerable influence
on the coffee you make. You should therefore try
various types of coffee to find the one best suited
to your taste.
•
Models with glass carafe:
close the frontal
door and place the closed glass carafe on the
non stick warming plate (fig. 6).
Models with thermal carafe:
Before placing
the carafe on the plate, make sure the lid is closed (fig. 7).
•
Models with electronic control panel:
you can
enhance the flavor of your coffee by pressing
the AROMA button. This feature activates a
unique brewing process, slowly releasing
water into the filter basket; saturating coffee
grounds a little at a time extracting the best flavor and aroma from your coffee. To activate,
press the AROMA button; the light above the
button will illuminate. Press the button again to
turn the selection off.
It is recommended to use
the aroma button if not brewing a whole carafe of coffee.
Press the ON/AUTO/OFF button (fig. 8). The
red light indicates that the coffee maker is in
operation and the display shows “BREW”.
•
Models with single switch:
Press the
"ON/OFF” switch (fig. 9). The indicator light
on the switch indicates that the coffee maker is
in operation.
• The coffee will begin to emerge after a few
seconds. It is completely normal for the
appliance to release a little steam while the
coffee is brewing.
•
In models with glass carafe
, if you leave the
appliance switched on after brewing is finished, the non-stick warming plate will keep the
coffee at the ideal temperature. The unit automatically shuts off after two hours.
•
Models with thermal carafe:
To pour the cof-
fee, turn the lid to the position shown in (fig.
10). To completely remove the lid from the carafe, turn it to the position shown in (fig. 11).
The appliance switches automatically off after
brewing cycle.
Important: Removing the carafe before the machine has finished producing the coffee does not
interrupt the brewing process, but simply stops the
flow of coffee into the carafe. If you want to pour
out a little coffee before brewing is completed, do
so as quickly as possible to avoid coffee overflow.
PROGRAMMING THE AUTOMATIC START
(models with electronic control panel only)
Make sure that the time is set correctly.
To program the time to start coffee preparation:
• Press the SET TIMER button and keep it depressed until you reach the desired switch-on time.
• Then release the SET TIMER button. The time
will flash for a few seconds until set: then the
display will show the current hour.
ACTIVATING THE TIMER
After you have:
- set the time for switch-on as described in the
previous section;
- prepare the machine for making coffee. Press
the ON/AUTO/OFF button quickly twice (fig.
12). The ON/AUTO indicator light changes to
green indicating the coffee maker is in operation: the display shows AUTO.
