Our products are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality, functionality and design. We hope you thoroughly enjoy the new Braun coffeemaker. Caution Read all instructions carefully before using this product. Keep this appliance out of childrens reach! Before plugging into an outlet, check whether the line voltage (120 volt ~) corresponds to the voltage printed on the bottom of the appliance. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. The hotplate 9 heats up when the appliance is switched on. Avoid touching it and never let the cord come into contact with it. Braun electric appliances meet applicable safety standards. Repairs on electric appliances must only be done by authorized service personnel. Faulty, unqualied repair work may cause damage or serious injury to the user. The cord of this appliance can only be changed by an ofcial service dealer since it requires a special tool. Important This appliance was constructed to process normal household quantities. Always use cold water to make coffee. Warm water or other liquids could cause damage to the coffeemaker. Before using the rst time, or when the coffeemaker has not been used for some time, ll the tank to the maximum number of cups with cold water and without coffee grounds and without a lter. Turn on and allow the water to ow through, then discard and ll with clean water. After a brewing cycle is nished, switch off the appliance and allow the coffeemaker to cool down for 5 minutes approximately. Otherwise steam can develop when pouring cold water into the water tank which might cause scalding. Your Braun FlavorSelect coffeemaker is designed to use any lter size 4. However, only Braun reusable lters designed for the FlavorSelect series will t properly. Caution other brand reusable lters may not be properly sized to your Braun FlavorSelect coffeemaker.

Put coffee grounds (not ground too nely) into the lter. Measure coffee grounds according to the strength desired. Close the lter basket again (a), letting it snap in place. Permanent lters Gold or gold-screen lters which may be used instead of paper lters are available as accessories. Please, note the following: Your coffee grind should be medium; a very ne grind could cause the lter to overow. Put the ground coffee into the center of the lter and prepare your coffee as described. For cleaning rinse the lter under running water. After using it for some time, clean with a soft brush or a soft sponge do not use abrasive cleansers or pads. The gold lter and the gold-screen lter can be washed in the dishwasher. Filling with water Important: When lling with water and during coffee preparation either the space compensator 4 or the water lter cartridge 4a have to be installed in the water tank 3. Otherwise the water level indicator 2 will not function correctly and the carafe may overow.

Pour cold water into the tank 3 to the number of cups of coffee desired. To do this, lift the tank cover 6 and pour the cold water into the tank. The amount of water is shown on the water level indicator 2 (KF 140, KF 145 maximum 10 cups; KF 152, KF 157 maximum 12 cups). Pre-selecting the taste avor selector By adjusting the avor selector 5 , you can adjust the taste of your coffee to suit your personal preference milder with less bitter aftertaste or stronger, but always with the same full avor. Set the avor selector under the tank cover before turning on the coffeemaker. If you prefer milder coffee with less bitter aftertaste, turn the avor selector 5 in the direction of the symbol (b). Should you prefer a more robust taste, turn the avor selector towards the symbol. Regardless of the position you select, the coffee will always have the same full avor.

should be immediately returned to the hotplate after pouring to prevent the lter basket from overowing. To make coffee, the carafe with the lid snapped on (d) must be set on the hotplate 9 and the lter basket 8 must be snapped in place (a). Due to a built-in overow protection feature, the liquid in the lter will ow directly into the carafe if you forget to snap the lter basket in place or put the lid on. The carafe must be on the hotplate for the overow protection to work. Remove the lter basket 8 to empty grounds (see Cleaning).
Keeping the coffee hot The carafe rests on the hotplate 9 which begins to heat up when the coffeemaker is switched on and will keep the coffee hot until the coffeemaker is switched off (red pilot light goes out). KF 145, KF 157: If you want to keep more than 4 cups of coffee hot, set the cups selector 10b to position 4-max, or less than 4 cups to position min-3. In this way even small quantities will be kept at the right temperature and the avor will be protected. For KF 140 auto-off only: Auto-off feature The appliance is protected against overheating by several special safety components and an automatic shut off feature. This means that the coffeemaker will automatically be switched off after 2 hours and the red pilot light will go out. If you want to start your coffeemaker again, rst turn the switch to off = and then turn the appliance on. The red pilot light will light up again.

The yellow pilot light lights up. 4-max (cups): Larger quantities (4 and more cups) will maintain the right temperature and avor.
Space compensator The space compensator 4 in the tank 3 takes up the space which is intended for the water lter cartridge 4a. Unless the water lter cartridge is installed in the tank, the space compensator must always be inside the tank when lling with water and brewing to avoid overlling. Keep the space compensator as it has to be installed in the tank if you have to decalcify your coffeemaker.

Making coffee Place the carafe with the lid onto the hotplate 9 and snap the lter basket 8 in place. Switch the coffeemaker on (see on/off switch). Brewing time is approx. 50 seconds per cup (including dripping). The pause and serve feature allows you to pour a cup in midbrewing cycle and prevents coffee from dripping on the hotplate when removing the carafe from the hotplate. The brewing, however, continues when the pause and serve feature is activated. The carafe
Water lter cartridge (only with KF 145 and KF 157 models) This water lter cartridge 4a is only to be used with municipally treated tap or well water that is regularly tested to be microbiologically safe (max. 85 F). It gives you purer tasting coffee by removing chlorine, bad tastes and odors as well as scale. Provided the cartridge is regularly replaced, it provides not only better tasting coffee, but also can increase the life of your coffeemaker by preventing calcication. 5
3111163_KF_140_NA Seite 6 Donnerstag, 23. November 2000 7:52 07
Installing the water lter cartridge Unpack the water lter cartridge 4a. Then put the lter cartridge for 10 minutes in a receptacle lled with water. Remove the space compensator 4 from the tank and replace it by the water lter cartridge. Make sure to keep the space compensator as it could be needed if you do not use the water lter any longer at a future point in time or for decalcication. After having installed a new water lter cartridge always run a cycle of the maximum number of cups of clean cold water through the unit before brewing coffee. In order to ensure the proper functioning of the lter cartridge, exchange it after 2 months of regularly using the coffeemaker. In order to remind you to replace the lter in time, you may set the dial 4b incorporated in the tank cover to the month when the cartridge has to be exchanged. Dial for water lter exchange After having installed a new lter cartridge, set the dial 4b for 2 months later by turning it from the reverse side of the tank cover. Cleaning Always turn the coffeemaker off and pull the plug out of the outlet before cleaning. Swing out the lter basket 8 and pull it off upwards from the lter support bracket 7 (e). To replace, set the rectangular opening in the rim of the lter basket 8 on top of the nose of the lter support bracket 7 until the lter basket snaps in place (e). To wash, take the lid off the carafe (d). The carafe, lid and lter basket can be cleaned in the dishwasher. All other parts should be cleaned with a damp cloth only. After cleaning, put the lid back on the carafe (d). Clean the hotplate 9 with liquid cleansers only. Do not use abrasive cleansers. The coffeemaker must never be cleaned under running water and must never be immersed in water. The lter support bracket 7 can be taken off for cleaning. Swing it out, push it up and pull it off diagonally downwards (f). To replace, insert the top rst. Decalcifying If you have hard water and you use your coffeemaker without a water lter, it should be decalcied regularly. When using the water lter cartridge and exchanging it regularly, you normally will not need to decalcify. However, if your coffeemaker takes much longer than normal to brew, the appliance should be decalcied. Notice: Replace the water lter with the space compensator for any decalcifying procedure. 6
