/ 4–15 small cups in the water res-
ervoir and on the coffee jug.

of fresh water.
The quantity of coffee produced is
lower as the ground coffee
absorbs water.
0 Insert paper filter.
Insert a size 1x4 paper filter in the
filter holder (figure 1/E). Please fold
the perforated edges before doing
this.
0 Fill in ground coffee.

The pilot lamp lights up. After a
few seconds, hot water flows into
the filter. When the water has
stopped flowing, the appliance
automatically switches to the
warming mode.
After use the appliance must be

switched off by hand.
0 Remove the jug.
While boiling, the jug must not be
1
removed for longer than
30 seconds or the filter will over-
flow.
Once the jug has been removed,
the filter valve prevents coffee from
dripping onto the warming plate.
The warming plate always keeps
the coffee hot. It remains on until
the appliance is switched off with
the ON/OFF switch (figure 1/A) and
the pilot lamp goes out.

do not use a descaler with a con-
centrated formic base, or any des-
caler in powder form.
We recommend to use only original

decalcifying tabs from Electrolux
(PNC 900 195 537/7).
Fill the water reservoir with water
and only then add the descaler. Not
vice versa! Place the coffee jug
with its lid onto the warming plate.
Allow the descaler to take effect for
about 15 minutes, then switch the
appliance on. Switch it off when the
