Steam only, Preparing Coffee | GE 681131690690 guide

instructions for use

Steam only

If you only want to froth milk, fill the glass carafe with water up to the “

” mark.

This will give you approximately one minute of steaming. Make sure the strength control knob is set to the “cup” marking

1.Pour the water into the water chamber and turn on the machine.

2.Place a cup under the steam nozzle to collect any water that may escape. As soon as the indicator light is on, turn on the steam control knob.

3.Now follow steps 5 & 6. When finished frothing the milk turn off the machine.

Preparing Coffee

Before making your first pot of coffee, we recommend rinsing the coffee maker once or twice with water only, without ground coffee in the filter basket. This will remove any possible dust that may have settled during shipping. Be sure that the water chamber is empty. Remove any literature, etc. if found in the water chamber.

•Make sure that the swivel filter is closed properly during the brewing process. When closing the swivel filter you will feel a noticeable resistance when the handle of the swivel filter is approximately 1/2 inch away from the non- removable sidepiece. Push in firmly until the handle touches the side of the coffee maker.

•Caution: If the filter holder is not pushed in properly the Pause & Serve trigger cannot function. This may cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.

•The Pause & Serve mechanism is opened as long as the glass carafe is inserted into the machine and sits properly on the warming plate and the swivel filter is closed properly. When brewing coffee, make sure the glass carafe is in place (see Pause & Serve Feature section.)

Putting in the Ground Coffee

1.Swing out the filter holder (C) (see figure 1) and insert a #4 cone shaped paper filter. When inserting the filter, make sure the seam is pointing towards the handle of the filter holder (see figure 2). Use your hands to conform the filter to the contours of the filter holder. This will enable you to achieve better results.

2.Put ground coffee into the filter holder (see figure 3). We suggest using one level measuring spoon of ground coffee for each cup (125ml) of robust brewed coffee. The maximum capacity of this coffee maker is 10 cups (1250ml). After using your coffee maker several times, you can adjust the quantity to suit your own taste.

We do not recommend using coffee that is ground to a powder-like consistency, as this will prevent water from passing through the coffee.

3.Close the filter holder and make sure that it is completely closed (see figure 4).

Attention: Make sure that the filter paper does not fold over when closing the filter holder. Otherwise the water might run between the filter paper and the filter holder producing a very weak cup of coffee.
