Water filter benefits and installation

The water filter improves coffee flavor by significantly reducing chlorine and calcification (lime scale) buildup.

Provided that the cartridge is replaced regularly (every two months), the water filter provides better tasting coffee and extends the life of your coffeemaker. Braun water filter cartridges are available at your local retailer or Braun service centers.

Installing the water filter cartridge

1.Unpack the water filter cartridge E .

2.Remove the space compensator B from the water tank.

3.Insert the water filter cartridge. (Be certain to keep the space compensator as it must be installed in the water tank whenever the water filter cartridge is removed.)

4.The water filter should be exchanged every two months. To remind you, set the water filter exchange dial F so that the current month is shown in the left space (start month). The month you should replace the water filter will then be shown in the right space (end month).

Note: Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, after a long period of not using it, or after installing a new water filter cartridge, run the coffeemaker through one brewing cycle using the maximum amount of cold, fresh water without any ground coffee in the filter basket.

Setting the clock

After plugging in the coffeemaker, the time «00:00» will flash on the display L . To set the clock, press either the «h» or the «min» button M / N for at least two seconds. Then hold the button or press repeatedly until you reach the desired time.

Press the «h» button M to program the hours. Press the «min» button N to program the minutes. Recommendation: Just before reaching the correct time, repeatedly press the «h» or «min» button briefly to avoid going past the desired time. The colon between the hours and minutes will flash for five seconds indicating that the clock has been successfully been programmed.

Note: If the power supply to the coffeemaker is inter- rupted (e.g., power failure, cord is unplugged), clock and programmed time are stored for 10 minutes.

Manual operation

To switch on, press the «on/off» button O . The red pilot light P will light up indicating that the coffeemaker is switched on and brewing is in process. To switch off the coffeemaker, press the «on/off» button. The red pilot light will go off to indicate that the coffeemaker has been switched off.

Automatic operation

To program the automatic operation, press the «auto» button K until the green pilot light J begins to flash. The time «12:00» or the previously programmed time appears on the display.

Then program the time for automatic operation by pressing the «h» and «min» buttons M / N as described
