Adjusting the water hardness
To maintain value and function of the appliance it has
an integrated descaling programme. The appliance can
be programmed with 4 degrees of water hardness. It
is set to high water hardness in factory. We recommend an individual adjustment based on your local
degree of hardness. You can ask your local water supplier or use a special control strip for determining.
To adjust degree of hardness press button „CALC“
(4) and keep it pressed. The display shows the factory
provided presetting. For adjustment press button
„MIN“ as long as the display shows your desired
degree of hardness. 2 seconds after releasing the
“CALC” button, the display shows the time again.
Your choosen water hardness is programmed. Last
adjustment maintains even when the appliance will be
disconnected from socket.
Coffee preparation
To maintain the best aroma of your coffee keep the
coffee packaging always closed and store it in a refridgerator. We recommend to use 6g ground coffee per
cup for best taste. To secure an optimal brewing
result fold the filterbag 102
packaging.
• Fill the removable water tank (6) with fresh, cold
water. The needed amount of water based on cups
to prepare can be read off the cup scale on the
water tank.

after each use. Filter cone and glass jug are dishwasher safe.
• Water tank can be cleaned under running water.
Do not use harsh and abrasive brushes.
Adjustable warmkeeping time
Longterm warmkeeping of the coffee on the warmingplate leads to loss of taste. Therefore we recommend
a warmkeeping time for not longer than 30 minutes.
This time is presetted for securing an optimal coffee
quality and also to avoid unneeded energy consumption.
If you want to keep your coffee warm for a longer
time, you can set the time in 4 steps until appliance
switches off automatically.
• For setting the warmkeeping time keep the
“ON/OFF” button pressed. 0:30 appears in the
display.

“MIN” button in 30 minutes steps (up to 2 hours
max.)
• After releasing the “ON/OFF” button, the current
time appears again after 2 seconds. Last setting
maintains even when the appliance will be disconnected from socket.
Descaling programme
To secure a proper function of the appliance, it has to
be descaled regularly. We recommend to use Swirl
Oxy-Power or Swirl®Citrus-Clean. To simplify this
necessary process, the appliance is equipped with a
descaling programme.
• Once the number of brewing cycles, based on the
individual adjustment of water hardness, is reached,
the red LED (4) lights up permanently. This shows
that descaling should be done shortterm.

agent according to the information on its packaging.
