2. Engadir pos de café: Place a standard basket-style paper filter (or the reusable filter if included) into the filter basket. Add the desired amount of ground coffee. A general guideline is 1 tablespoon of coffee per cup, but adjust to your taste.

5. Función de Sneak-A-Cup: The coffee maker features a 'Brew Stop' device (also known as Sneak-A-Cup).

Return the carafe to the warming plate within 20 seconds to prevent overflow.
6. Función Manter quente: After brewing, the coffee maker will automatically switch to a 'keep warm' function, maintaining the coffee's temperature. The special feature allows you to drink coffee without heating it as it has the function of keeping warm.
7. Programación (se corresponde): If your model includes programmable features, refer to the specific buttons (e.g., 'PROG', 'HR', 'MIN') on the control panel to set a delayed brew time. This allows you to prepare the coffee maker the night before and wake up to freshly brewed coffee.
