gauze in the lter.

After use switch the machine o and unplug from the mains supply.
NOTE 1: At any time during the brewing cycle you can temporarily remove
the carafe to serve a cup of hot coee. The brewing cycle will not be inter-
rupted and no coee will drip from the appliance. To restart the brewing
cycle the carafe must be replaced in the machine within 30 sec. NEVER
replace an empty carafe on the hot plate while it is hot or it may crack.
NOTE 2: When the brewing cycle is over the machine will switch to a
“keep warm state”. The hot plate will stay on for 40 minutes to keep the
coee warm, after which time the unit will switch o.
Ideally coee should always be served as soon as possible after brewing.
