adult. Use and store it out of reach of children.

or outdoors.

4 The scald hazard lasts long after boiling. Keep the coffee maker and cable away

from the edges of worktops and out of reach of children.
5 Sit the coffee maker on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.

household use only

before using for the first time

1 Fill the reservoir to the max mark, and run the coffee maker without coffee.
2 Let it cool, discard the water, then use it normally.

ground coffee

3 If you buy ready-ground coffee, medium-ground filter coffee will give you the best

results. The amount will vary with the type of coffee and your individual taste. We

suggest starting with two rounded teaspoons of medium-ground coffee per cup.

storing coffee

4 Coffee is best kept in an airtight container in a cool dry place, or in the fridge.

Exposure to air oxidises coffee and allows the flavour to evaporate.

bottled water

5 If you use bottled water, check that there are no added ingredients, flavourings, etc.,

and use still water, not sparkling. The carbon dioxide which gives the sparkle will

adversely affect the flavour of your coffee.
