Handling of the Stainless Steel Thermal Carafe

5g. Pouring Coffee While Brewing You can pull the carafe from the plat- form during the brewing process for approx. 20 seconds to pour a cup in between.

Important: Make sure to open and close the carafe lid as indicated in chapter 5d.

5h. Brewing Small Amounts of Coffee When brewing small amounts of coffee (3 to 5 cups) push the 3-5 cup button first. The green indicator light will go on. Then push the On/Off button. The red indicator light will go on. The brewing process will be slowed down to allow the coffee to reach its full aroma.

If you pushed the 3-5 cup button by mistake, just push it again to turn off this function.

Important: When brewing 3-5 cups of coffee the temperature in the carafe will be approx. 3 to 5 degrees lower than on a full pot.

5i. Making Multiple Carafes of Coffee If you want to make another carafe of coffee immediately after the first pot, make sure the machine is off and allow to cool down for three minutes before refilling the water tank. Important: Make sure the carafe is empty before brewing.

6.Automatic Brewing at a Pre-Programmed Time

Set the programmed time at which you wish to brew coffee as described in chapter 2d.

Make sure that the programmed time is correct (AM or PM).

Hint: If you want your coffee ready by 7:15 AM, set the programmed time to 7:05, i.e. 10 minutes earlier. This way you get the freshest and hottest coffee possible.

Important: Avoid any air conditioner blowing cold air against the thermal carafe. This will cool down the carafe

overnight and reduce the coffee temperature in the carafe.

Fill the water tank and filter holder and place the empty carafe with the closed lid on the platform (chapter 4). Push the "auto" button (Fig. 2, L). The green indicator light above this

button will go on.

At the pre-programmed time, the red on button will go on and the green auto light will go off, indicating that brewing has started.

Important: If you pushed the auto button by mistake just push it again to turn it off.

7.Handling of the Stainless Steel Thermal Carafe

The lid of the thermal carafe has a pouring indentation to make it possible to pour with the lid in place (black dot pointing at the spout, Fig. 12). Always make sure that the carafe is transported in an upright position.

If you turn the carafe with its lid closed on its side or turn it upside down, hot coffee will flow into the grooves of the lid and exit through the side of the lid (Fig. 13). Important: A stainless steel bottom covers the vacuum seal of the stain- less steel body. Do not try to remove this cover. Do not place the carafe on any hot surfaces since this can loosen the vacuum seal inside the bottom. This can cause the carafe to lose its thermal function.

Do not place carafe in dishwasher.

8.Cleaning the Coffee Maker

•Make sure coffee maker is turned off (Red light is off). Always unplug the appliance from the outlet before cleaning.

•Never use scouring agents.

•Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid and never clean under running water. To clean the appliance, wipe off with a soft, damp cloth.
