Please note:

1

. Water hardness cannot be programmed while 

brewing.

2. The last water hardness level chosen remains even 

after removing the power cable.

4. Setting the hotplate 

Keeping coffee warm on the hotplate affects the taste 

of your coffee. To avoid this you should enjoy your 

coffee fresh by drinking it as soon after brewing as 

possible. Unnecessary warming also uses valuable 

energy. The factory settings for the appliance are for 

40 minutes of warming. After this the hotplate turns 

off automatically. This time can be changed as needed:
•  Press the START button 



 longer than two seconds. 

•  In the factory settings the START button 



 flashes 

briefly twice with the following pause (…

•  There are two other settings for the warming time. 

By briefly pressing the START button 



 the display 

changes to flashing three times or once, each time 

followed by a pause  (…

confirm your settings by pressing the START button 



  for longer than two seconds.  Your settings are 

now saved

•  The last setting chosen remains even after removing 

the power cable.

5. Making coffee

•  Ensure that the appliance is connected to the power 

source.

•  Open the lid on the water tank. 



•  Fill the water tank with the desired amount of water 

using the glass pot. With the help of the water level 

display on the tank 



 you can choose the correct 

number of cups. Small cup symbol = approx. 85ml 

coffee per cup, large cup symbol = approx. 

1

25 ml 

coffee per cup. 

•  Close the lid on the water tank and place the glass 

pot with closed lid in the appliance.

•  Open the swivel filter 



 to the left. 

2.  Before first use:

•  Ensure that the power supply in your home corres-

ponds to that on the model plate on the base of the 

appliance.

•  Connect the appliance to a power source. Unused 

cable can be stored in the base of the appliance. 



•  All appliances have been tested during production 

for perfect functioning. Therefore there may be 

for example water deposits remaining. Rinse the 

appliance twice with the maximum amount of water 

and without a filter bag or ground coffee, in order to 

clean it.

•  For the best coffee enjoyment and convenient use, 

the appliance is equipped with various features. 

These features are explained below.

3.  Set water hardness

Depending on water hardness lime scale may build up 

in the appliance. This increases the appliance’s energy 

consumption as lime scale on the heating element can 

prevent the water heating effectively. To avoid damage 

the appliance must be descaled regularly. The descaling 

display helps you in this. If the CALC-button 



 is 

permanently lit this shows that the appliance needs to 

be descaled.
The appliance is pre-set for a high level of water  

hardness (level 4). You can find out the level of water 

hardness in your area by asking your local water 

provider or by using water hardness measuring strips 

available in the shops. For softer water the descaling 

display can be adjusted to descale less often:
•  Hold down the CALC button 



 for longer than 2 

seconds. The CALC button starts to flash. In the 

factory settings the CALC button flashes briefly four 

times with the following pauses …

…

•  You can set the water hardness at three further 

levels. Each time you briefly press the CALC button 



 the display changes to flashing one, two or three 

times, each time followed by a pause  

(…

•  The settings and display are shown in the following 

table

.

•  Once you have set the desired hardness level, again 

hold the CALC button 



 down for longer than two 

seconds. The light goes off and your settings are 

saved.
