coffee to be kept hot, press the on/off button to switch off the appliance.

Drip stop function

The drip stop function enables you to remove the jug from the coffeemaker before the brewing
process is finished. When you remove the jug, the drip stop stops the flow of coffee into the jug.
Note: The brewing process does not stop when you remove the jug. If you do not put the jug back in
the appliance within 20 seconds, the filter basket overflows.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning after every use

Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, nor rinse it under the tap.
1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
2 Wipe the outside of the coffeemaker with a damp cloth.
3 Clean the filter basket and the permanent filter with hot water and some washing-up liquid or
clean them in the dishwasher.
Cleaning the grinder funnel
Important: Clean the grinder funnel every 1 to 2 weeks to prevent clogging with ground coffee. This
is easily and quickly done by following the steps below.
Note: Make sure the coffee bean container is empty before you start the cleaning procedure.
1 Press the on/off button to switch off the appliance (Fig. 14).
2 Open the filter basket holder (Fig. 10).
3 Place a paper filter (type 1x4 or no. 4) or the permanent filter in the filter basket (Fig. 11).
4 Close the filter basket holder.
5 Use the end of the bean chute cleaning brush to open the grinder funnel lid (Fig. 15).
6 Press and hold the grinder clean button for 4 seconds (Fig. 16). The grinder starts cleaning itself.
7 When the grinder has stopped cleaning, use the bean chute cleaning brush to brush ground coffee
residues into the lower part of the funnel (Fig. 17). The ground coffee residues fall into the filter
basket.
8 Close the lid of the grinder funnel.
9 Remove the paper filter or permanent filter with the ground coffee residues.

Descaling the coffeemaker

Descale the coffeemaker when you notice excessive steaming or when the brewing time increases. It
is advisable to descale the coffeemaker every two months. Only use white vinegar to descale, as other
products may cause damage to the coffeemaker. For more information on descaling, see
