Information about the Cromargan® vacuum jug
(only version with vacuum jug)
The pot is designed as a serving pot and best keeps the content warm when it is full.
The keep warm time can be significantly reduced if it is only partially full or has
residual amounts. It is best if the pot is rinsed with hot water before preparation.
For technical reasons, the seal from the brewing lid is not 100% tight so that it can
be easily opened, even after the coffee cools down. To close, only slightly tighten the
lid. Only used the filled pot standing upright.
To pour, press the pour button on the handle.
To open the pot, turn the lid slightly counter-clockwise. After closing the lid, ensure
that the pour button lines up with the pot handle.
The double-walled Cromargan® container is absolutely break-proof. Nevertheless, it
should be protected against mechanical stresses.
Rinse the pot regularly. If iron particles from water accumulate on the Cromargan®
surface, they can create pitting at those points. Therefore, remove these deposits
immediately with a stainless steel cleanser.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning
Unplug the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down.
Do not immerse the device in water, but rather clean it on the outside with a damp
cloth and a little washing-up fluid.
Do not use any sharp and abrasive cleaning agents.
The filter, teapot and vacuum jug can be cleaned under running water.
Scaling indicator
Scale deposits lead to an extended brewing time and a lower quality of your coffee.
Limescale deposits also lead to losses of energy and impair the service life of the
device.
The automatic scaling indicator determines the time for the next descaling. Depen-
ding on the coffee consumption and set water hardness, you will be prompted to
descale already after 4 to 6 weeks via the flashing CALC during the brewing process.
Setting the water hardness
Your appliance has an automatic scaling indicator. To protect against too much lime
scale, the appliance is pre-configured ex-works for very hard water. Ask your local
waterworks or local authorities about the water hardness of your tap water. Change
the setting when the water hardness is less than 21°dH. You will not be asked to
descale as often as before.
To do so, hold the Set button down for about 7 seconds until Set CALC appears in
the display. The display CALC and the current set degree of hardness, e.g. H4 will
flash alternately. As long as the water hardness in the display is flashing, this can be
changed to water hardness 1, 2, 3 or 4 by pressing the button.
Confirm the setting by pressing the Set button.
