Setup

  1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all packing materials, including any protective films or tapes, are removed from the appliance.
  2. Placement: Place the brewer on a stable, flat, and heat-resistant surface near an electrical outlet. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.
  3. Water Tank Installation:

    Locate the water tank at the back of the unit. Remove it by pulling it upwards. Fill the tank with fresh, cold water up to the "MAX" mark. If your model includes a water filter, ensure it is correctly installed in the tank before filling. Reinsert the filled water tank firmly into its position on the brewer.

  4. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. The power button may illuminate, indicating the unit is ready for initial use.
  5. Initial Rinse Cycle: Before first use, perform a rinse cycle without a T-Disc. Place an empty cup on the cup stand, close the brew head, and press the start button. This cleans the internal system.

Operating Instructions

  1. Power On: Ensure the brewer is plugged in and the power switch (if present) is in the 'On' position. The indicator light will show the machine is heating up or ready.
  2. Prepare Cup: Place your desired cup or mug on the adjustable cup stand. Adjust the stand's height if necessary to prevent splashing.
  3. Insert T-Disc:

    Open the brew head by lifting the lid. Insert the chosen T-Disc into the disc holder with the barcode facing down. Close the brew head firmly until it clicks into place. The machine will read the barcode to identify the beverage type.
