User manual KRUPS CRYSTAL AROME TIME

[. . . ] 0 Do not remove glass carafe from heating plate while water is dripping from the spout. Do not use a cracked carafe or a carafe having a loose or weakened handle. Do not clean carafe with cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive material. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION This appliance is for household use only. Any servicing other than cleaning and user maintenance should be performed by the nearest authorized KRUPS Service Center (see Guarantee of Performance). [. . . ] This is due to the minimum absorption of the water by the ground coffee. 7 Therefore, it is recommended that you add a little extra water at the beginning so that you will have the number of cups you desire. Replace the glass carafe on the warming plate with the carafe lid in position. Potting in the ground coffee With the hinged lid opened, insert a paper filter (we recommend KRUPS size 4) into the filter holder, with the seam facing right (see figure 7). We suggest using one level KRUPS measuring scoop of ground coffee for each cup of robust coffee (see figure 8). After using your KRUPS coffeemaker several times, you can adjust the measure to suit your own taste. Close the hinged lid, making sure that the filter holder is securely in place. The "Stop'n Serve" feature is KRUPS answer to the impatient coffee drinker's clamor for "a quick cup of coffee!". This device automatically stops the flow of brewed coffee through the filter cone if the glass carafe is removed from the warming plate during the brewing cycle. You have about 20 seconds between the removal of the carafe and its being reinserted to allow the service of one or two cups of coffee. The "Stop'n Serve" device closes off the filter cone so effectively that there is virtually no coffee-drip onto the warming plate (one drop, at most). Once the carafe is replaced, the brewing cycle and the flow of coffee into the carafe are resumed. A CAUTION: The KRUPS "Crystal Arome" features a full flavor selector button. If you want to make l-3 cups of coffee, press the `l-3' button (see figure 9). This will extend the brewing cycle so that the water will seep into the ground coffee slowly enough to yield brewed coffee that is rich, aromatic and truly delicious. For making 4-10 cups, the `4-max' flavor selector button should be pressed. Indicator light will illuminate and brewing will commence (see figure 101. For model #458: Turn the selector switch to the "on" position. The red indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the brewing process has begun (seefigure 11). If coffee does drip onto the warming plate after removal of the carafe, it is usually an indiction that too much ground coffee has been placed into the paper filter. This causes the water that jets into the filter cone to overflow between the paper filter and the sides of the filter cone. The overflow carries coffee grounds that interfere with the snapshut action of the filter holder, thus allowing brewed coffee to continue to drip through. [. . . ] The power cord can be tailored to the length required by utilising the hidden cord storage located behind the coffeemaker (see figure 18). Although your KRUPS coffeemaker has the most advanced water heating and pumping system, it will periodically need cleaning with a decalcifying agent.
