•Open the frontal door by pulling the handle (fig. 1) and, by using the jug, pour fresh water into the water compartment up to the level corresponding to the number of cups you want to make.

Check the water level viewer and it is suggested to use the provided carafe as the measure, as the maximum volume of the carafe corresponds to those of the water tank (fig. 2).

•Place the permanent filter in the filter holder (fig. 3).

•Place the ground coffee in the filter, using the measuring spoon supplied, and level evenly (Fig. 4). As a general rule, use a level measuring spoon of ground coffee (around 7 grams) for each cup (for example, 8 spoons to make 8 cups). Never use more than 15 level spoons.The quantity of ground coffee used will vary according to personal taste. Use good quality, medium ground coffee, packaged for filter coffee makers.

•Close the lid and place the jug on the plate with the lid on (fig. 5).

•Press the "ON/OFF" switch (Fig. 6).The light on the button comes on to indicate that the drip coffee maker is operating.

•The coffee will start to come out after a few seconds. It is completely normal for the appliance to release a little steam while the coffee is filtering.

•If you leave the ON/OFF button pressed after percolation has finished, the plate will keep the coffee at the ideal temperature.

Attention: removing the jug before all the coffee is made does not interrupt production of the coffee, but merely blocks flow into the jug. If you want to pour out a little coffee immediate- ly, you are recommended to do so as rapidly as possible in order to avoid the coffee overflowing in the filter holder.
