IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons including the following :
1.Read all instructions.
2.Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3.To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons, do not place cord, plugs or appliance in water or other liquid.
4.Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Keep appliance out of reach of children.
5.Not intended for use by children.
6.Burns can occur from touching hot plate, hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Exercise caution.
7.Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, before cleaning the appliance, and before storing.
8.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 the nearest KRUPS Service Center for examination, repair or adjustment.
9.The use of accessory attachments not recommended by KRUPS may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
10.Do not use outdoors.
11.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
12.Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
13.To disconnect, turn the control to «off» then remove plug from wall outlet. Do not yank cord, instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
14.Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
15.Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing cycles.
4
16.Do not pour liquids other than water and descaling solutions specified in this manual into the water tank.
17.Do not pour cold water into the water reservoir immediately after brewing. Allow the unit to cool down before refilling the reservoir.
18.This appliance is intended for household use only.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not drape cord over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A.We do not recommend using an extension cord with this device.
B.If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
1)the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
2)the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
C.This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than other). To reduce risks of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into 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.

Description of Features
•Water Reservoir : Lid flips back for easy access.
•Carafe : Both thermal and glass carafes are designed with drip free pour spout and ergonomic handle for easy pouring.
•Heating Plate : On glass models with timer the heating plate can be programmed to stay on from 1 - 5 hours. The default setting is 2 hours.
•Swing Out Filter Basket : Use #4 paper filters or a permanent filter.
•Filter Basket Soft Release Button : Opens the filter holder to insert filter and add coffee.
•1-3 Cup Flavor Setting : For brewing smaller quantities while fully extracting the coffee flavor.
•“Duo Filter“ Water Filtration : Active vegtable based double acting anti-chlorine and anti-scale filter. The anti-chlorine action of the filter brings out the most delicate flavors of the coffee. The anti-scale action allows for longer periods between descaling.
Note: There is a rotary indicator on the top of the water filter holder. This indicates when the “Duo Filter” should be changed. Place the index mark next to the month the filter should be changed, referring to the chart below.
Example: If you replace the “Duo Filter” in January (1) you should set the indicator to March (3) or May (5), depending on the hardness of your local water supply: position the number 3 or 5 opposite the index mark.

Important:
•The “Duo Filter“must only be used with water.
•The coffee machine still functions if the water filter is not in place.
•If the coffee machine has not been used for more than one month, rinse the “Duo filter“ under running water.
•It is recommended not to leave the “Duo Filter“ in place for more than 5 months.
•Your appliance is designed for use with the carafe type (glass or thermal) it was purchased with. Do not use thermal carafes on coffeemakers purchased with a glass carafe and vice versa.
Before First Use
•Run the coffee machine through one cycle with water only. Do not run with coffee or the “Duo Filter”(j).
•Remove the“Duo Filter” from its plastic covering. Rinse it under tap water for 1 minute.
•Lift the water reservoir lid (a) and remove the water filtration holder (k).
•Rotate the lower part of the holder and insert the “Duo Filter” into its housing.
•Replace the water filtration holder. The coffee machine is ready to use.
Making the Perfect Cup of Coffee
Making the perfect cup of coffee is something different for everyone. It is an art and a science, that is not only effected by the coffee that is used, but also the equipment. The water, the water temperature, the time the water is in contact with the coffee, the grind, the type of filter, all play an important role in determining the flavor. Fine tuning these aspects is the art of making the ultimate cup of coffee.
The four main principles :
1.The Water
It is important to use fresh water that you like. Since coffee is 98% water the taste of the water will come through in the coffee. The Duo Filter system removes chlorine taste, but the better the water you start with the better the flavor of the coffee.
2.The Coffee
Chose premium fresh whole beans suited to your taste. There are two principale species of coffee: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans are the choice beans with more flavor and less caffeine. Robusta beans have more caffeine and are more « robust » and are usually used in blends. The origin of the beans and the roast will determine the flavor. Roasts vary from light to very dark. Light roasts have a smooth, delicate aromatic taste, medium to medium dark roasts are slightly stronger, with a full-bodied balanced taste, and dark roasts are bold with smoky undertones.
3.The Grind
Use the proper grind finesse and grind just prior to brewing. The variation in the grind depends on the type of filter you use. We prefer paper filters because they allow you to use a finer grind, thus allowing a full extraction and more contact time with the water. Permanent filters require a slightly coarser grind therefore the extraction rate is reduced. A general rule of thumb for grinding is the longer the brew process the coarser the grind.
7
4.The Proportion
We recommend that you use 1 rounded Tbsp. of ground coffee per cup and modify the quantity to suit your taste.

1 x 4
•Use only cold water and a #4 filter paper or a permanent filter.
•The coffee maker is fitted with a drip-stop device, allowing you to serve coffee before the water has finished running through. Replace the carafe quickly to avoid overflow.
•Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the water reservoir as shown by the water level indicator (e).
•Place the ground coffee into the paper filter or directly into a permanent filter. After use, discard the grounds, and rinse the filter basket under running water.
•It is normal for a small amount of steam to escape during the brewing cycle.
For models with thermal carafe:
• To ensure maximum heat retention, rinse the thermal carafe with HOT water before use, and close the lid by turning clockwise.

To serve coffee depress the trigger (9).
Features of Programmable Timer Models
If your model has a programmable clock/timer the following features are included:
. Auto On - Allows you to set the daily start time of the brew cycle.
.Auto Off - Allows you to set the length of time the coffee machine will stay on. It can be set from 1 to 5 hours for units with glass carafes and is set to 20 minutes for units with thermal carafes.
. Audible Signal - Beeps when the coffee is done brewing. This can be turned off or on.
. 1 - 3 Cup Flavor Setting : To extract the full flavor or the grinds from smaller quantities. (10)

•We recommend washing carafes by hand with a mild detergent.
•Do not use scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffee machine.
Descaling
Descaling is necessary to keep your coffee machine running efficiently. The frequency of descaling depends on the hardness of your water and how often you use the coffee machine.
If you notice the brew cycle has slowed it is generally time to descale the machine. See the chart below:
