3. Insert the water filter cartridge. (Be certain to keep
the space compensator as it must be installed in
the water tank whenever the water filter cartridge is
removed.)
4. The water filter should be exchanged every two
months. To remind you, set the water filter exchange
&
dial so that the current month is shown in the left
space (start month). The month you should replace
the water filter will then be shown in the right space
(end month).
N.B.
Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, after a
long period of not using it, or after installing a new water
filter cartridge, run the coffeemaker through one brewing
cycle using the maximum amount of cold, fresh water
without any ground coffee.
II Making coffee
Fill tank with cold, fresh water, press filter push button
to open filter basket, insert a No. 4 paper filter, put in
ground coffee, place the carafe on the hotplate
switch on the coffeemaker
when filling with or disposing of ground coffee, the filter
basket can be easily taken off its hinge. A drip-stop
prevents dripping when the carafe is removed to pour
a cup before brewing is finished. Carafe should be
immediately returned to hotplate to prevent the filter
basket from overflowing.
Brewing time per cup: approx. 1 minute. Amount of
brewed coffee in the carafe will be below initial filling level
as water is retained by ground coffee.
Model KF 570 is equipped with an automatic shut-off
feature (auto-off). After a maximum of two hours of
operation the coffeemaker will automatically switch off.
III Water filter
The water filter improves coffee flavor by removing
chlorine, bad tastes and odors as well as scale. If the
cartridge is replaced regularly (every two months), it
provides not only better tasting coffee, but also can
extend the life of your coffeemaker by preventing
calcification. Braun water filters are available at your
retailer or Braun service centre.
IV Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. Never
clean the appliance under running water, nor immerse
it in water; only clean it with a damp cloth.
Model KF 570 features a stainless steel filter basket
that should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. You may
use dishwashing liquid. Do not use abrasive cleaners, nor
clean it in a dishwasher.
The glass carafe and the plastic filter basket of KF 520
and KF 560 models are dishwasher-safe.
V Decalcifying
(without illustrations)
If you have hard water and you use your coffeemaker
without a water filter, it has to be decalcified regularly.
When using the water filter cartridge and exchanging it
regularly, you normally will not need to decalcify. How-

. For more convenience
ever, if your coffeemaker takes much longer than usual to
brew, it should be decalcified.
Important: Replace water filter with the space compen-
sator during any decalcification procedure.
• You can use a commercially available decalcifying
agent, which does not affect aluminum.
• Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the
decalcifying agent.
• Repeat the procedure as many times as necessary in
order to reduce the brewing time per cup to a normal
level.
• Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run
through at least twice to clean the coffeemaker.
