Russell Hobbs Glass Line 12591-58 [97/100] Care and maintenance

46 If left for much more than an hour, chemical changes in the coﬀee liquor start to aﬀect the

ﬂavour. It’s best to pour it away and make a fresh pot.

47 When the carafe is empty, switch the coﬀee maker oﬀ and unplug it from the power socket.

48 Let the appliance cool for about 10 minutes before adding water or re–using, to avoid

spitting.

care and maintenance

49 Unplug the appliance and let it cool down before cleaning or storing away.

50 Use the grip to open the lid.

51 Don’t ﬂush coﬀee grounds down the sink. They’ll build up and cause a blockage.

52 You may clean the carafe, ﬁlter, and ﬁlter holder in warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly

afterwards, to remove all traces of soap.

53 Clean the outside surfaces of the appliance with a damp cloth.

54 Turn the ﬁlter holder to bring the slot in its rim towards the lid, then lower the ﬁlter holder

back into the coﬀee maker.

55 Drop the ﬁlter into the ﬁlter holder, and lower the ﬁlter handle.

56 Close the lid.

57 Don’t put any part of the appliance in a dishwasher.

58 Don’t put the appliance in water or any other liquid.

59 Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.

descaling

60 Scale build-up will cause the element to overheat, reducing its working life. It will also

lengthen the brewing time.

61 Descale regularly. If you notice the brewing time getting longer, shorten the time between

descalings. In areas of very hard water it may be necessary to descale as often as once a

month, or to use ﬁltered water instead of ordinary tap water.

62 Use a proprietary brand of descaler suitable for use in plastic-bodied products. Follow the

instructions on the package of descaler. When descaling has ﬁnished, empty the carafe and

operate the coﬀee maker twice more with fresh water, but without coﬀee. Discard the water

to ensure that no chemical residues are left in the coﬀee maker.

, Products returned under guarantee with faults due to scale will be subject to a repair charge.
