Setup

Before using your coffee maker for the first time, please follow these steps:

1. Unpack all components and remove any packaging materials.
2. Wipe the exterior of the coffee maker with a damp cloth.
3. Wash the glass carafe, reusable filter, and coffee scoop in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
4. Place the coffee maker on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface.
5. For initial cleaning, fill the water tank to the MAX level with clean water. Run a brewing cycle without coffee grounds. Discard the water. Repeat this process once more.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to brew coffee with your Nehilumn coffee maker:

1. Step 1: Pour water into the water tank. Open the top lid and pour fresh, cold water into the water tank using the glass carafe. The clear water ruler allows you to add different volumes to meet your needs. Do not exceed the "MAX" fill line.
2. Step 2: Add ground coffee. Place the reusable filter into the filter basket. Add your desired amount of ground coffee into the filter. A general recommendation is 10g of ground coffee per cup.
3. Step 3: Start brewing. Close the top lid securely. Ensure the glass carafe is properly placed on the warming plate. Flip the ON/OFF button to the "I" position to start brewing. The indicator light will illuminate.
4. Step 4: Enjoy your coffee. The coffee maker features an anti-drip function, allowing you to temporarily remove the carafe during brewing without spills. Once brewing is complete, the coffee maker will automatically switch to the "keep warm" function, maintaining the coffee's temperature until the machine is turned off.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your coffee maker.

• Daily Cleaning:
  1. After each use, turn off the coffee maker and unplug it from the power outlet. Allow it to cool completely.
  2. Remove the reusable filter from the filter basket. Rinse it thoroughly under running water to remove all coffee grounds. Dry it with a clean cloth.
  3. Empty any remaining coffee from the glass carafe and wash it with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
  4. Wipe the exterior of the coffee maker and the warming plate with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
• Descaling (Monthly or as needed):

  Mineral deposits from water can build up over time, affecting performance. Descale your coffee maker regularly:

  1. Fill the water tank with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:2 ratio).
  2. Place the empty carafe on the warming plate.
  3. Run a brewing cycle. After about half the mixture has brewed, turn off the coffee maker and let it soak for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Turn the coffee maker back on and let the remaining mixture brew through.
  5. Discard the vinegar solution. Run 2-3 cycles with clean water to rinse thoroughly and remove any vinegar odor.
