BLUE = NEUTRAL

BROWN = LIVE

YELLOW &GREEN = EARTH

As the colours of the wire in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the

colour marking identifying the terminals on your plug, proceed as follows:

nThe wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked

with the letter N

nThe wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked

with the letter L

nThe wire which is coloured YELLOW &GREEN must be connected to the terminal which

This appliance is supplied ﬁtted with a BS1363 mains plug and a BS1362 13A fuse.

B. Before ﬁrst use

Inserting the Water Filter

nYour coffee machine comes with a charcoal water ﬁlter that eliminates chlorine, bad tastes

and odours from tap water.

nRemove the ﬁlter from the polybag and soak it, fully immersed, in cold tap water for 15

minutes.

nOpen the lid on the coffee maker by pressing the indentation marked ‘PUSH’

nLift the water ﬁlter holder out of the water reservoir.

nPress down on the ﬁlter compartment and pull towards you to open.

nPlace ﬁlter into the holder and snap it closed. Be careful – improper placement can tear the

ﬁlter skin.

nFlush ﬁlter by running cold tap water through holes in bottom of compartment for 10 seconds.

nAllow the ﬁlter to drain completely.

nSlide the water ﬁlter holder back into the channel in the water reservoir, pushing it down to

the base of the unit.

NOTE: We recommend changing the water ﬁlter every 60 days or after 60 uses, and more often

if you have hard water. Replacement ﬁlters can be purchased in stores, or by calling Cuisinart UK

After Sales Service or at www.cuisinart.co.uk

Flushing out the Machine

nWe recommend ﬂushing out the system before brewing your ﬁrst cup of coffee. Simply ﬁll a

cup with water (max 450ml) and pour into the reservoir. Place the same cup on the drip tray,

press the Grind Off button and power on the unit. Do not add coffee.

C. Brewing Coffee Using Beans

nOpen the lid by pressing the indentation marked ‘PUSH’. Add water by ﬁlling your chosen cup

with water and pouring this water into the reservoir. This ensures that you have exactly the

right amount of water to make your cup of coffee.

N.B All of the water that you put into the reservoir will be used to produce your cup of coffee.

Do not ﬁll the water reservoir with more than 450ml of water. You will notice slightly less water

comes out into the cup as a small amount is absorbed by the coffee grinds. This allows enough

room in the cup to add milk. Should you drink your coffee black, you can ﬁll your cup with water

then add an extra splash more into the water reservoir.

nRemove grinder cover by simply holding the transparent plastic lid and pulling it towards you.

Add beans using the scoop provided.

CUP COFFEE

Small Cup 1-2 scoops

Medium Mug/Cup 3-4 scoops

Large Mug/Cup 5-6 scoops

NOTE: Adjust the amount of beans to suit your taste as you get to know your coffee maker and

personal preferences. The more beans you add, the stronger your coffee will be. The machine will
