User manual SEVERIN KA 4121

[. . . ] 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. This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. [. . . ] - Starting the brewing cycle: Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the On/Off switch to switch the coffee maker on. The filtration cycle starts and the water passes through the filter. - Removing the glass carafe: Wait until all the water has passed through the filter before the carafe is removed from the appliance. To keep the coffee hot for as long as possible, remove the aroma protection lid and use the screw-in lid to close the carafe. - Switching off the coffee maker: Always switch off the appliance after use and remove the plug from the wall socket. 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 heatconserving 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. The interior of the heat-retaining carafe insert consists of high quality double-walled 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. Always close the carafe with its screw cap. The coffee can be poured out easily by half a Turn of the cap, without removing the cap. 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. - Do not stir in the carafe, for example with a metal spoon. - Do not use hard brushes or abrasive cleaning agents. [. . . ] Rinse out thoroughly with water afterwards. Do not dispose of old or defective appliances in domestic garbage; this should only be done through public collection points.
