4. Setup and First Use

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the coffee pot and all accessories from the packaging.
2. Clean: Before first use, wipe the exterior of the coffee pot with a damp cloth. Wash the interior of the pot with warm, soapy water, then rinse thoroughly. Do not immerse the electrical base or cord in water.
3. Placement: Place the coffee pot on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from water sources and direct heat.
4. Power Connection: Ensure the power switch on the handle is in the 'OFF' position (O). Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

5. Operating Instructions

The Sinbo SCM-2928 is designed for making traditional Turkish coffee. Follow these steps for optimal results:

1. Add Water: Fill the coffee pot with the desired amount of cold water. Ensure the water level is below the maximum fill line indicated inside the pot.
2. Add Coffee: For each cup of Turkish coffee, add approximately one to two teaspoons of finely ground Turkish coffee to the water. Do not stir yet.
3. Optional Sugar/Spice: If desired, add sugar and/or spices (like cardamom) at this stage.
4. Stir: Gently stir the mixture until the coffee and sugar (if added) are well combined with the water.
5. Start Brewing: Place the coffee pot on its power base (if detachable) or ensure it's connected to power. Press the power switch on the handle to the 'ON' position (I). The indicator light will illuminate.
6. Monitor Brewing: The coffee will begin to heat and foam. Turkish coffee requires careful monitoring to achieve the desired foam (köpük). Do not let it boil over.
7. Serve: As soon as the coffee begins to rise and foam reaches the top, turn the power switch to 'OFF' (O) and remove the pot from the heat source. Pour the coffee slowly into small cups, distributing the foam evenly.
8. Repeat: If making multiple batches, allow the pot to cool slightly between uses to prevent overheating.
