Operating Instructions

1. Fill Water Reservoir: Open the lid of the water reservoir. Fill one of the glass decanters with fresh, cold water to the desired measurement mark (e.g., 1.7 liters for full capacity). Pour the water into the reservoir.
2. Add Coffee Grounds: Place the reusable filter into the filter pan. Add the appropriate amount of ground coffee to the filter. For optimal flavor, refer to coffee packaging for recommended ratios.
3. Position Decanter: Place an empty glass decanter on the heating plate beneath the filter pan.
4. Start Brewing: Press the power button (usually indicated by a power symbol) to begin the brewing cycle. The LED indicator will illuminate.
5. Serving: Once brewing is complete, the coffee will be kept warm by the integral hot plate. Carefully remove the decanter by its handle to serve.
6. Additional Capacity: The Mondo series, including this model, is designed for efficient brewing. If you have a Mondo Twin model (not this specific Mondo 2), it features a double brewing system for larger quantities. For this Mondo 2, you can brew multiple batches sequentially.

Maintenance

• Daily Cleaning: After each use, empty and rinse the filter pan and glass decanter. These parts are dishwasher safe or can be washed by hand. Wipe down the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth.
• Descaling: Depending on water hardness and frequency of use, descaling should be performed regularly (e.g., every 1-3 months). Use a commercial descaling solution suitable for coffee machines, following the product's instructions. This prevents mineral buildup and ensures optimal performance.
• Filter Maintenance: The reusable filter should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. If using paper filters, dispose of them after each brew.

Troubleshooting

• Coffee Not Brewing:
  • Ensure the machine is plugged in and the power button is pressed.
  • Check if the water reservoir has sufficient water.
  • Verify the decanter is correctly placed on the heating plate.
• Weak Coffee:
  • Adjust the amount of coffee grounds used.
  • Ensure the coffee grounds are suitable for drip coffee machines.
  • Consider descaling the machine if mineral buildup is suspected.
• Overflowing Filter:
  • Check if the filter is properly seated in the filter pan.
  • Ensure the correct amount of coffee grounds is used, avoiding overfilling.
  • Clean the filter pan and ensure no blockages.
