Initial Operation; Coffee Preparation; Cleaning And Care - WMF Lono Gebrauchsanweisung

Initial operation

Prior to the first use and after the device has not been operated for an extended period of time, run
a brew cycle with fresh water without coffee grounds. To do so, fill the tank to no higher than the
10-cup mark (version with glass jug) or to the 8-cup mark (version with thermal jug), as otherwise
the jug can overflow.

Coffee preparation

For easy filling of the water tank you can remove it. The lid on the water tank can be removed. Only
pour cold water into the tank. The water level indicator is for the amount of fresh water that is
needed to brew the desired number of cups per 125 ml coffee.
In order to pour in the ground coffee, open the swing filter by pressing the release button on the
water tank. Place the paper filter of the 1 x 4 size into the filter, but fold the stamped edge before
doing so. The paper filter should not protrude over the edge of the filter. If necessary, push it down
slightly with your hand.
Add the required amount of ground coffee. Depending on your personal taste, use approximately 5–7
g of medium-fine ground coffee per cup. If it is ground too finely, the filter can overflow.
Then close the swing filter. It will audibly click into place.
Immediate start
Briefly press the Start/Stop symbol if the coffee is to be prepared immediately. The symbol lights up
during the brewing process.
You can cancel the preparation at any time by pressing the Start/Stop symbol.
Wait a few minutes until all of the coffee has run into the jug. After removing the jug, a drip-stop
prevents coffee from dripping.
WMF Aroma Perfection
If you would like to prepare a strong aromatic coffee, you can activate the aroma function WMF
Aroma Perfection. It is particularly recommended for preparing smaller amounts. To do so, press the
Aroma symbol
just before you begin the brew process with the Start/Stop symbol or activate the
automatic switch-on.
The symbol remains lit until the preparation has ended.
Note: If you wait longer than about 5 seconds to start the brewing process or activate the automatic
switch-on, the Aroma function deactivates again.
Please note that the preparation time is slightly longer.
Automatic shut-off
(only version with thermal jug)
The automatic shut-off function prevents overheating when the device is in use. The device switches
off only once all of the water has passed through the filter.
It is possible to shut off the appliance early by pressing the Start/Stop symbol. This could be necessary
if you accidentally start the coffee machine without water. Before filling a hot appliance, you must
wait a few minutes and allow the coffee machine to cool down.
Keep-warm function
(only version with glass jug)
Your device is fitted with a keep-warm function to maintain brewed coffee at serving temperature.
The keep-warm function lasts for 40 minutes. You can deactivate the keep-warm function early by
pressing the Start/Stop symbol.

Information about the Cromargan® thermal jug
(only version with thermal jug)
Important: Do not use the jug to keep milk products or baby food warm due to the risk of the
build-up of bacteria. Do not heat the jug up in the microwave or the oven. Do not use the jug to store
or transport carbonated drinks. After cleaning the jug, rinse
it carefully with clear water.
The jug is designed as a serving jug and best keeps the content warm when it is full. The time the
content is kept warm may be reduced significantly if the jug is only partially filled or almost empty. It
is best to rinse the jug 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. Therefore, never lie the jug down to transport it, otherwise coffee
could spill out. To close, tighten the lid only slightly. Only use the filled jug standing upright.
To pour, press the push button on the handle. Press it once to open the jug; you can now pour out
the coffee. To check if the jug is open, there is a white mark on the top of the jug lid. Press the push
button on the handle again to close the jug.
To open the jug turn the lid slightly counter-clockwise. After closing the lid, ensure that the pour
button lines up with the jug handle.
The double-walled Cromargan® container is absolutely break-proof. Nevertheless, it should be
protected against mechanical stresses.
Rinse the jug regularly. If iron particles from water accumulate on the Cromargan® surface, they can
create pitting at those points. These deposits must therefore be removed immediately with a stainless
steel cleanser. Do not clean in the dishwasher or in rinsing water.
Note: Stubborn deposits can be removed using soda, dishwasher granules or denture cleansing tablets.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning
Pull out the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down.
Do not immerse the appliance in water. Outer surfaces can be cleaned using a damp cloth and a little
washing-up liquid.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.
The filter, glass jug and thermal jug can be cleaned under running water.
Scale indicator
Limescale deposits lead to longer brewing times and lower the quality of your coffee. They also lead to
energy losses and impair the service life of the appliance.
The automatic scaling indicator determines the time for the next descaling cycle. Depending on the
level of coffee consumption and water hardness, after 4 to 6 weeks the descaling symbol
during the brewing process, prompting you to descale the appliance.
Setting the water hardness
Note: The setting for individual water hardness is not necessary as the appliance detects the limescale
automatically.
