7.5 Quick-Start

If the appliance is pre-programmed using the “Auto” function (the green

indicator for the button is illumi- nated to indicate “Program activated”), but you would like some coffee before

the start time, press the button (Figure 2/B). The red indicator

(Figure 2/B) will be illuminated and the green indicator (Figure 2/J) for “Program activated” will go off.

Grinding and brewing will begin at once.

7.6Deactivating the “Auto” function

If you have activated the “Auto” func- tion but do not want the programme

to start, simply press the button (Figure 2/J). The green indicator will go off.

7.7 Switching off

Switch the appliance off with the button (Figure 2/B).

8 Warming plate (Figure 1/D)

After brewing the warming plate keeps the coffee in the glass jug warm. Two hours after brewing the appliance switches off automatically.

9 Removing the jug (Figure 15)

When the jug is removed, the anti-drip valve prevents dripping.

10 Cleaning

(It is imperative that these instructions are observed!)

10.1Coffee grinder (Figures 14, 17-19)

From time to time (at the latest when a blockage occurs), it is necessary to clean the grinder channel to free it from oily coffee residues.

To do this, proceed as follows: Remove the plug from the mains.

Open the lid of the fresh water con- tainer and turn the screw (e.g., with a coin) on the cover of the grinder chan- nel to “Open” (Figure 17). Take hold of the cover of the grinder channel at the

front left and remove it slowly (Figure 18). Insert a paper filter in the swivel filter and move the swivel filter until it clicks into the grinding posi- tion. Brush the coffee residue (includ- ing that from the rear of the channel) into the paper filter using a suitable item (e.g., paintbrush) (Figure 19). The coffee residue can also be removed using a vacuum cleaner.

Then wipe the grinding channel with a dry cloth. Press the release button to move the swivel filter back into the brewing position (Figure 14). Empty the paper filter, replace the cover and turn the screw back to the “Close” position. Check that the cover is cor- rectly positioned. Your coffee machine is now fully ready for use again.

If dark, oily coffee beans are used, the grinding channel needs to be cleaned more often than for light beans.

To avoid blockages in the grinding channel:

Do not use frozen coffee beans, as water condenses on them on defrost- ing and can lead to blockages.

Do not swivel the swivel filter back to the grinding position immediately after brewing as steam rising from the coffee grounds can cause a blockage.

Position the appliance sufficiently far away from the cooker or a deep fat fryer as fat can cause a blockage.

Always keep the container for the cof- fee beans closed.

Every now and again clean the coffee grinder (Figure 1/L ) of oily residues from the coffee beans using a dry cloth.

10.2Coffee part (Figure 16/A and B)

The filter insert can be removed for emptying and cleaning.

Remove the glass jug and raise the lid of the fresh water container (Figure 1/A), place your finger in the rear handle recess (Figure 16/A) and pull the bracket up. This unlocks the filter insert and it can be removed for
