[. . . ] Power cord with plug Important safety instructions ● Before the appliance is used, the main body as well as any attachment fitted should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a hard surface, it must not be used any longer: even invisible damage may have adverse effects on the operational safety of the appliance. — During operation, the coffee maker must be placed on a level, non-slip surface, impervious to splashes and stains. — Do not allow the appliance or its power cord to touch hot surfaces or to come into contact with any heat sources. [. . . ] With a dual-scale, the left scale is used for regular-sized cups of approx. — If several consecutive brewing cycles are required, switch off the coffee maker after each cycle and let the appliance cool down for approx. — Important note: When filling the appliance with fresh water shortly after a brewing cycle is completed, there is a danger of scalding from hot water or steam escaping through the water outlet. Making coffee - Filling with water: Open the water container lid, fill the container with the desired quantity of water and replace the lid. - Inserting the paper filter: Open the swing-out filter sideways and insert a size-4 paper filter into the filter holder, first folding down the perforated sides of the filter. - Filling with ground coffee: For each regular-sized cup (125 ml), a measure of about 6 g (= 11/2 - 2 teaspoons) of medium or finely ground coffee will be required. - Preparing the glass carafe: Fit the aroma protection lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance. 8 If correctly inserted, the lid will disable the drip-stop mechanism in the filter holder during the brewing cycle. - Starting the brewing cycle: Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off switch to switch the coffee maker on. - Removing the glass carafe: Wait until all the water has passed through the filter before the carafe is removed from the appliance. - Switching off the coffee maker: The coffee may be kept warm inside the carafe by leaving it standing on the hot-plate. Always switch off the appliance after use and remove the plug from the wall socket. Descaling ● Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need descaling (i. — A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing indicate that descaling of the coffee maker has become necessary. — An excessive build-up of lime deposits is very difficult to remove, even when strong descaling agents are used. We therefore strongly recommend descaling the appliance after each thirty to forty brewing cycles. For descaling, a vinegar solution may be used as follows: - Mix 2-3 tablespoons of vinegar with the indicated maximum amount of cold water. - Pour the descaling solution into the water container, insert a paper filter into the filter holder without adding any ground coffee as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliance run through one filtration cycle. During descaling, ensure sufficient ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar vapours. - To clean the appliance after descaling, let it run through 2-3 filtration cycles using clean water only.

Hvis apparatet for eksempel har været tabt på en hård overflade må det ikke længere anvendes: selv skader der ikke er synlige kan have ugunstig indvirkning på sikkerheden ved brug af apparatet. — For at undgå risikoen for at varmt vand 22 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● eller damp skal slippe ud, skal man altid slukke for kaffemaskinen og lade den få tilstrækkelig tid til at køle af inden tragten åbnes eller nogen af delene eller tilbehøret tages af. For at overholde sikkerhedsreglerne og for at undgå farer, skal reparationer af elartikler, herunder udskiftning af elledningen, altid udføres af kvalificeret personale. [. . . ]
