• There is a danger of electric shock from immersion in water or other

fluids!

• Keep the device, power cord and power plug away from hot surfaces,
open flame, direct rays of the sun and sharp edges. Make sure that the
cord does not kink during use (e.g. in doors).

• When you pull the plug, always pull by the plug and never the cord.

• If the power cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by a

qualified professional in order to avoid hazards. The same applies for
the power plug.

HAZARDS TO PERSONS:

• This device is not meant for persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental abilities or lack of experience and / or lack
of knowledge to be used, unless they are supervised by a person who
is responsible for their safety or have received instructions on how to
use this device.

• Children must be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play
with this device.

• Make sure that this device is not switched on unintentionally and / or
without water.

• Pay attention to the full line markings of this device. Too much water
can cause the excess liquid to overflow.

• Make sure that the water tank lid is closed properly during the boiling
cycle. Danger of burns from escaping steam!

• Make sure that the device openings and the spout are not near
people, animals or objects because hot steam escapes through the
openings during boiling.

tank as long as the water tank is still hot. Let the device cool off first
after each boiling cycle.

• To ensure the correct functioning of the drip-stop system, check that
the carafe is placed correctly under the filter opening.

• The device parts become hot during operation. Therefore, touch only
the intended operating elements and handles. Danger of burns!

HANDLING THIS DEVICE

Remove all packing materials / cord ties from device and unwind the power cord
completely.

We recommend that the device be cleaned before first use according to the
following handling instructions, by boiling water twice and then pouring
the water out. In this way, any possible dust or residues from the manufacturing
process can be removed. Before first use, the

thermal carafe (11),

the

carafe lid (9),

the

paper filter basket (6)

and the

filter holder (7)

should be rinsed once more by

hand and then dried.

• Place the device on a stable, even, heat-resistant and water-resistant surface.
Make sure that the device cannot slip or tip over.

• Insert the power plug into an approved, properly installed power outlet which can
be reached at all times.

• The device is equipped with a

drip-stop system (8)

which allows you to pour a
cup of coffee while the coffee maker is still brewing. However, immediately
after pouring the coffee, the

thermal carafe (11)

must be replaced correctly

under the

drip-stop (8)

to prevent filter overflow. Make sure the

thermal

carafe(11)

is sitting upright!

• Once the water has run through, wait to remove the carafe and switch off the
device until the rest of the water has flowed through the filter into the

thermal

carafe

(11)

.

FILLING WATER IN THE WATER TANK

• Open the lid of the

water reservoir (1)

to fill the

water reservoir (2)

.

• Fill the

water reservoir (2)

with clean, cold water. You may use the

thermal

carafe (11)

for this.

• The water quantity must remain between the lines of the

fill level indicator (3).

Too little water may cause the device to overheat. Too much water may cause
excess liquid to overflow.

only. Do not try to force the

paper filter basket (6)

into

the

filter holder (7)

!

Filter holder:

• The

filter holder (7)

can be removed as well.

• To do this the

water reservoir lid (1)

must be open, the

thermal carafe (11)

must be removed from the

carafe

storage (5)

and the

paper filter basket (6)

should not be

in the

filter holder (7)

. There should also be no water in

the

water reservoir (2)

.

• Push against the plastic tab on the front of the

filter

holder (7)

with one hand and with the other hand push the

thermal carafe (11)

without

the carafe lid (9)

on the

carafe storage (5)

.

• Make sure the

thermal carafe (11)

is placed upright in the coffee maker,

because the spout of the

activates the

drip-stop (8)

and only

then can coffee run into the

thermal carafe (11)

!

TURNING ON AND OFF
