[. . . ] To prevent the danger of hot water or steam being emitted, always switch off the coffee maker and allow sufficient time for the appliance to cool down before it is opened or any accessories or attachments are removed. Always remove the plug from the wall socket - in case of any malfunction, - after use, and also - before cleaning the appliance. When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull on the power cord; always grip the plug itself. Do not allow the power cord to hang free; the cord must be kept well away from hot parts of the appliance. [. . . ] To interrupt the brewing cycle, disconnect the appliance from the mains. € Switching off the coffee maker: Remove the plug from the wall outlet after use. Heat-retaining carafe – For technical reasons the screw-in lid does not close hermetically. Therefore always hold the carafe in an upright position when filled with coffee. € Keeping the coffee hot: A heat-conserving carafe accumulates heat energy. Therefore the carafe should preferably be filled to its maximum capacity. If it is only partly filled, the temperature will not be held as efficiently. If you rinse out the carafe with hot water before use, the coffee will be kept warm for a longer time. € During brewing, and also while pouring the coffee from the heat-retaining carafe, the drip-through lid does not need to be removed and should remain in place. To pour the coffee, turn the lid counter- clockwise about half a turn so that the arrow on the lid is aligned with the pouring spout. € The interior of the heat-retaining carafe insert consists of high quality doublewalled glass with a vacuum in-between for better insulation. Any streaks or bubble marks inside the carafe looking like bubbles or scratches do not affect its functional use nor its heat-retaining ability. In case the glass is damaged for one or the other reason as mentioned below, there is a risk that the glass carafe implodes. This might happen quite some time after the glass carafe has actually been damaged. Therefore do not drink out of the carafe and do not put your hand into it. Do not leave the vacuum carafe unattended near where children may reach it. To prevent damage to the glass carafe: – Avoid shocks and great differences in temperature. 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. Any warranty claim will be null and void if the appliance malfunctions because of insufficient descaling. A lengthening of the brewing time and increased noise during brewing indicate that descaling of the coffee maker has 10 – – – – become necessary. If the appliance switches off as a result of a lime deposit build-up, some residual water remains in the container. Caution: Allow it to cool down first before switching on again with the start button.
