Operation
Before the fi rst usage
WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
Never fi ll the water tank 2 with a total volume of more than 10 cups of wa-
►
ter. Never pour less than 2 cups of water in the water tank 2. Doing so may
damage the coff ee maker. Use the water level indicator on the water tank 2.
► Disconnect the coff ee machine immediately after use. The appliance is com-
pletely free of electrical power ONLY when it is unplugged.
► Fill the water tank 2 with water only. Otherwise, the coff ee maker may be
damaged.
1) Carefully rinse the glass jug 7 with mains water.
2) Remove the fi lter holder 8.
3) Pour water into the water tank 2. Empty the water tank, in that you carefully
tip the appliance over a sink and pour the water out. Then carefully dry the
appliance.
4) Rinse the fi lter holder 8 with clean water and place it back into the appliance.
5) Fill the glass jug 7 with 10 cups of water.
6) Completely fi ll the water tank 2 with the water.
7) Close the lid 1, ensuring that it engages.
8) Place the emptied glass jug 7 onto the keep-warm plate 4.
9) Insert the plug into a mains power socket.
10) Switch the coff ee machine on with the On/Off switch 5. The integrated

Filling with ground coff ee
1) Open the lid 1.
2) Place a paper fi lter bag (size 1 x 4) with folded over sides into the fi lter
holder 8.
3) Fill it with the required amount of coff ee powder using the measuring
spoon 6.
NOTICE
Fill it with approx one levelled measuring spoon 6 of ground coff ee for
►
each cup of fi lter coff ee. Should you prefer a weaker coff ee, reduce the
amount of ground coff ee being used.
Filling with water
WARNING - HEALTH RISK!
► Use only drinking water for preparing the coff ee!
NOTICE
When brewing coff ee some water is lost: a part of the water evaporates
►
as steam and some water always remains in the coff ee powder. For this
reason, the level indicators on the water tank 2 and on the glass jug 7
are slightly diff erent. The amount of water in the water tank 2 is, in respect
of the markings, always somewhat more than the same marking on the
glass jug 7.
The lid 1 is still open after fi lling it with coff ee powder.
1) Fill the glass jug 7 with water.
WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
Never fi ll the water tank 2 with a total volume of more than 10 cups of
►
water. Never pour less than 2 cups of water into the water tank 2.
Use the water level indicator on the water tank 2.
2) Pour the amount of water into the water tank 2 appropriate to the desired
amount of brewed coff ee. For this, use the water level indicator on the water
tank 2.
3) Close the lid 1, ensuring that it engages.

►
complete, the coff ee will be kept warm on the keep-warm plate 4.
NOTICE
Wait for at least 10 minutes, after you have switched the coff ee machine
►
off , before you start a new brew.
Cleaning and Care
Cleaning the appliance
In order to obtain an optimal taste result from every brewing process you should
clean the coff ee machine after every use.
RISK - ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
Before cleaning, ALWAYS remove the plug from the mains power socket!
►
There is the risk of receiving an electric shock!
► Do not open any part of the housing. There are no user-serviceable ele-
ments inside. An open housing will create the risk of a potentially fatal
electrical shock.
NEVER submerse the appliance in water or other liquids! This would
incur the risk of a potentially fatal electrical shock should liquids come
into contact with powered components.
GB
WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
WARNING - PROPERTY DAMAGE!
SKACD 1000 A1
► Let the appliance cool suffi ciently before cleaning it. Risk of Burns!
Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning materials. These could attack
►
the upper surfaces and irreparably damage the appliance.
► Do not use sharp or pointed objects to remove soiling. These could
damage the appliance.
9
GB
■ Disconnect the plug from the mains power socket.
■ Wipe the housing of the coff ee machine with a damp cloth. For stubborn
soiling use a mild detergent on the cloth.
■ Clean the glass jug 7, the fi lter holder 8 and the measuring spoon 6 with
warm water. If need be, use also a mild detergent. Afterwards, rinse all parts
with clean water to ensure that all detergent residues are washed away.
■ Dry the appliance and all parts well before re-use.
Scale removal
The mineral content (hardness) in the water causes, over a period of time, a
calcifi cation of the coff ee machine. This calcifi cation impairs the appliance in
its function and diminishes the quality of the brewed fi lter coff ee.
NOTICE
Enquire at your local waterworks about the hardness level of your mains
►
water. The need for decalcifi cation comes early in hard water areas,
somewhat later in soft water areas. Use a decalcifi er designed for household appliances and pay heed to the usage instructions.
1) Switch the coff ee machine off and allow it to cool down completely.
2) Use a commercial descaling product for coff ee machines: Mix the descaling
agent with water. Thereby, pay heed to the usage instructions supplied with
the descaling product.
3) Fill the water tank 2 to the 8-cup marking with the descaler and water
mixture.
4) Place the glass jug 7 on the keep-warm plate 4.
5) Switch the coff ee machine on with the On/Off switch 5.
6) Wait until the brewing process is complete. Switch the coff ee machine off
and disconnect the plug from the mains power socket.
7) Carefully rinse the glass jug 7 with water.
8) Fill the water tank 2 with drinking water.
9) Empty the water tank 2 again, in that you gently tip the appliance over the
sink. Thereby ensure that the fi lter holder 8 does not fall out.
10) To fi nish, carry out two brewing processes with just drinking water, as described in the section "Before the fi rst usage".

When completed, you can continue to use the coff ee machine.
