Compliance with standards

This machine complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF).  

If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual,  

the machine is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

The energy consumption of this machine in off mode is less than 0.5 watts.  

This means that this machine complies with European Directive 2009/125/EC,  

which sets the ecological design requirements for energy-using products.

Make sure you place the appliance on a flat and stable surface and put the mains  

plug in an earthed wall socket. 

For hygiene reasons, flush the appliance by filling the water tank with cold fresh  

water and put the jug in place. Do not put a filter and ground coffee in the filter 

holder. Let the appliance run until the water tank is empty (see steps 1 to 9 on  

the inside of the cover).

If the jug is not properly placed, the drip stop function is automatically activated. 
Caution: Do not remove the water tank with filter holder from the housing during 

a brewing cycle, as there will be hot water in the filter holder. 

 

, Glass jug: You can leave the jug on the hotplate to keep the coffee warm and to 

preserve its flavour. The appliance switches off automatically after 120 minutes. 

 

, Thermos jug: The appliance switches off automatically after brewing. The jug 

keeps the coffee hot. 

 

, If you want to brew another jug of coffee right away, let the appliance cool 

down for 3 minutes first.
Drip stop function

The drip stop function enables you to remove the jug from the coffeemaker before 

the brewing process is finished. 
Note: If you remove the jug for more than 20 seconds before all the water has passed 

Never immerse the appliance or thermos jug in water or any other liquid, nor 

rinse it under the tap.

 1 

 Clean the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance and guarantees optimal brewing 

results and a constant brewing time for a long time.

You should descale your appliance at least: 

 - Every two months if you use soft or filtered water (up to 18dH);

 - Every month if you use hard water (over 18dH).

You can contact your water board for more information about your tap water.  

If your appliance starts producing more steam, this can be an indication of scale 

building up in your appliance. 

You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid or a liquid descaler to descale  

the coffeemaker.  
Note: If you are not aware of the water hardness in your area and are not in a position to 

contact your local water board, we advise you to descale the appliance every month. 
Never use vinegar with an acetic acid content of 8% or more, natural vinegar, powder 

descalers or tablet descalers to descale the appliance, as this may cause damage.
Descaling takes approx. 30 to 60 minutes.

 1 

 Fill the water tank with 0.8 litres of white vinegar (4% acetic acid).

 2 

 Take a paper filter (type 1x4 or no. 4) and put it in the filter holder. 

 3 

 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance and let it complete the 

brewing cycle (see chapter ‘Using the appliance’).

 4 

 Switch off the appliance.

 5 

 Empty the jug over a sink and throw away the paper filter.

 6 

 Let the appliance complete two more brewing cycles with fresh cold water to 

remove any vinegar/descaler and scale residues.

 7 

 Clean the jug and the water tank with filter holder.
