Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash all removable parts (upper chamber, filter funnel, lower boiler, adapter filter) with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Do not immerse the heating base in water.
3. First Brew (Water Only): To clean the internal components and remove any manufacturing residues, perform a brewing cycle using only water. Fill the lower boiler with water up to the safety valve, assemble the pot without coffee, and run a cycle. Discard the water. Repeat this process 2-3 times.

Operating Instructions

Brewing Coffee

1. Fill Water: Unscrew the upper chamber from the lower boiler. Fill the lower boiler with cold water up to the level of the safety valve.
2. Add Coffee: Insert the filter funnel into the lower boiler. Fill the filter funnel with ground coffee (suitable for moka pots). Do not press the coffee down. If making 1 cup, use the adapter filter.
3. Assemble: Screw the upper chamber firmly onto the lower boiler, ensuring a tight seal.
4. Place on Base: Place the assembled moka pot onto the heating base. The base allows 360-degree rotation for convenience.
5. Power On: Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet (AC 220-240V ~ 50Hz). The LED display will illuminate.
6. Start Brewing: Press the power button (usually indicated by an 'I' or power symbol) to start the brewing process. The coffee will begin to rise into the upper chamber.
7. Automatic Shut-off: The moka pot features an internal thermostat for automatic shut-off once brewing is complete.
8. Keep Warm Function: After brewing, the appliance will automatically enter a 30-minute keep-warm mode.
9. Serve: Carefully remove the moka pot from the base by the handle and pour the coffee. The base remains cool to the touch.

The programmable timer allows you to set a specific time for your coffee to start brewing.
