[. . . ] 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. [. . . ] - Preparing the glass carafe: Fit the aroma protection lid onto the carafe, and then place the carafe into the appliance. - Starting the brewing cycle: Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet and use the Start button 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: 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 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. 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.
