Connect the appliance only to a power source having a minimum load capacity of 10 amps and having a proper grounding feature. The manufacturer takes no responsibility for any accidents caused by the lack of a grounding device for the appliance. • Never install the machine in an environment which can reach a temperature of less than or equal to 0°C (if the water inside the machine freezes, the machine might be damaged): HOW TO PREPARE DRIP COFFEE • Raise the lid and remove the water tank (fig. 1). • Fill the tank with cold, clean water, up to the level indicated on the tank corresponding to the number of cups of coffee that are desired (fig. 2). • Insert the tank into the machine by pressing it slightly. If desired, the tank can be left in its place and to fill it, the drip coffee pot can be used which also has the level indicators on it (fig. 3). • Open the filter holder by swinging it out to the left (fig. 4). • Place the paper filter into the filter holder (fig. 5). We recommend using #4 type paper filters. • Put the ground coffee into the filter by using the measuring spoon included with the machine and level off the grounds uniformly (fig. 6). As a general rule, use one level measuring spoonful of coffee (about 7 grams) for each cup of coffee (for example, use 10 measures to make 10 cups of coffee). In any case, the quantity of ground coffee to use can vary according to the strength desired and personal taste. Use high quality ground coffee, with a medium grind and the kind packaged especially for drip coffee makers. • Close the filter holder and place the pot, with its lid inserted, onto the hot plate.
