dishwashing detergent. Then rinse these parts under clean running water and dry them.
3) Place the filter holder 9 and the permanent filter 0 into the steam chamber 3.
4) Fill the water tank 2 with cold drinking water up to the maximum mark 12/MAX. Make sure that

10 minutes.

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR BREWING FINE TASTING COFFEE
• Always brew coffee in a clean coffeemaker. A dirty coffeemaker can negatively impact the taste
of the coffee beverage. Instructions for cleaning and removing limescale deposits are found in
chapter Cleaning and maintenance.
• Always brew coffee using cold drinking water.
• Brew coffee using ground coffee intended for coffeemakers or from freshly ground coffee beans.
Coffee brewed from freshly ground coffee beans will have a better taste and aroma. When grinding
coffee, it is important to adhere to the instructions below.
• Grind the coffee beans to a fine texture but not too fine. If the ground coffee resembles fine flour
when sifted between the fingers, then water will take too long to flow through the coffee and
the resulting beverage will be too dark and bitter, or the coffee filter may become clogged or the
steam chamber may overfill. If you grind the coffee beans too coarsely, it will be necessary to use
a larger amount of coffee per cup to achieve optimal taste and aroma.
• Store ground coffee in an enclosed container, in dry and cool conditions. Do not place it in
a refrigerator or freezer. Consume within a week of first opening it.
• Coffee tastes the best when freshly brewed and so reheating it is not recommended.
SELECTING A COFFEE FILTER
• This coffeemaker is supplied with a permanent filter 0 that can be used repeatedly. Or you can
use disposable paper filters size no. 4, which can normally be purchased from your vendor or at the
supermarket. Fold the edge of the paper filter before placing it into the holder 9.
