4. Opsætning
- Udpakning: Carefully remove the percolator and all accessories from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
- Indledende rengøring: Before first use, wash the coffee basket, lid, and internal components with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Wipe the exterior of the percolator with a damp klæde.
- Placering: Place the percolator on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, away from walls and other appliances to allow for proper ventilation. Ensure the power cord can reach a grounded outlet without strain.
- First Use (Water Only): Fill the percolator with clean water up to the MAX fill line. Do not add coffee. Close the lid securely. Plug the unit into a suitable power outlet and turn it ON. Allow the water to complete a full brewing cycle. Dispense all water through the tap. This process cleans the internal system and removes any manufacturing residues. Repeat if necessary.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
- Tilbered kaffegrums: Use coarse ground coffee suitable for percolators. Fine grounds may clog the filter. For a 15L capacity, refer to coffee-to-water ratio guidelines (e.g., 1:18 ratio, approximately 830g of coffee for 15L of water).
- Tilsæt vand: Remove the lid and coffee basket assembly. Fill the percolator with cold, fresh water up to the desired level, observing the water level indicator. Do not exceed the MAX fill line.
- Tilsæt kaffe: Place the coffee grounds into the coffee basket. Ensure the basket is properly seated on the percolator's central tube.
- Sikkert låg: Place the lid back on the percolator and twist or latch it securely to prevent steam escape and ensure proper percolation.

- Brygningsproces: Water will heat and rise through the central tube, showering over the coffee grounds. This process will continue until the coffee is brewed. The brewing time for a full 15L capacity is approximately 62 minutes.
- Klar-indikator: Once brewing is complete, the red "BOIL" light will turn off, and the green "READY" light will illuminate, indicating the coffee is ready to serve and will be kept warm.
- Servering: Place a cup under the dispensing tap and push the lever to dispense coffee. Release the lever to stop.
- Efter brug: Turn the ON/OFF switch to 'OFF' and unplug the percolator from the power outlet. Allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning.
