Breville recommends safety first
We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you,
our valued customer foremost in mind. In addition, we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any
electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions:
Important safeguards for your Breville Aroma Style
Electronic Coffee Maker
• Carefully read all instructions before operating and
save for future reference.
• Do not place the coffee maker near the edge of a
bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface
is level, clean and free of water.
• Remove any promotional stickers before using the
coffee maker for the first time.
• Do not place the coffee maker on or near a hot gas
or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated
oven. Place coffee maker at least 20cm away from
walls and curtains.
• Use only the carafe provided, do not substitute with
any other carafe.
• Use the carafe on the coffee maker’s hot plate only.
Do not place the carafe on a heated stove top or in
a microwave oven.
• Do not use on metal surfaces, for example, a sink
drain board.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse
cord, plug or coffee maker body in water or any
other liquid.
• Do not move the coffee maker whilst in operation
or when hot.
• Do not open the water tank lid during the brewing
cycle as hot steam could cause injury.
• Do not touch hot surfaces.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use.
• Always press the ‘On/Off’ button to off, then switch
off at the power outlet and unplug if the appliance is
to be left unattended, if not in use and before cleaning.
• Keep the appliance clean. Follow the cleaning
instructions provided in this book.

2. Insert plug into a 230/240V power outlet and then
switch on at the outlet.
3. Ensure the filter holder is firmly positioned into
place. Insert the stainless steel mesh filter basket
into the filter holder.
4. Spoon ground coffee into the stainless steel mesh
filter basket. Allow approximately 1 heaped
teaspoon of ground coffee for each cup of brewed
coffee. Close the water tank lid.
5. Position the empty carafe, with the lid on, onto
the hot plate.
6. Press the on/off button to switch the Coffee Maker
on. The light above the on/off button will
illuminate and the coffee will start to drip through.
7. The non-drip valve feature allows you to interrupt
the brewing cycle before the entire carafe has
finished filling.
8. When the brewing process ends and the water
tank level indicator is on empty, there will still
be hot liquid in the filter basket. Wait a few
minutes for the rest of the liquid to drip through
into the carafe.
9. After the coffee grounds have cooled, open the
water tank lid and carefully remove the mesh
filter basket by grasping the handle, and lifting
straight up from the filter basket holder.
10. The hot plate will keep the coffee hot for two
hours as long as the Coffee Maker is switched on.
11. Always switch the Coffee Maker off when the
carafe is empty or when you no longer want to
keep the coffee hot.
If you wish to brew another carafe of coffee
immediately, press the on/off button to off,
switch off at the power outlet and unplug,
clean the carafe and the stainless steel mesh
filter basket, then follow the steps under

with cold water to the maximum mark.
2. Insert plug into a 230/240V power outlet
and then switch on at the outlet.

The light above the on/off button will illuminate
and the water will start to drip through.
5. When the water has dripped through, press

off. Remove the carafe from the hot plate,
empty and wash in hot soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
The Aroma Style Electronic Coffee Maker is now
ready for use.
Permanent stainless steel mesh
filter basket
This filter basket is provided to ensure optimal
flavour extraction from the finely ground coffee
into the brewed coffee.
The filter basket is removable and should be
washed in warm, soapy water after each use,
then rinsed and dried thoroughly. Replace back
into the filter holder.
Disposable paper coffee filters are not necessary
and should not be used with or without the
permanent stainless steel mesh filter basket.
Note
Setting the clock to the time of day
on the LCD
The clock does not have to be set to the time of
day for the manual operation of the Coffee Maker
The clock has to be set for time of day for the
automatic operation of the Coffee Maker.
Note
To set the clock to the time of day:
1. When the Coffee Maker is plugged in and
switched on at the power outlet the LCD will flash
12:00 and the AM icon in the top left hand corner.
2. Press the ’HOUR‘ button to select the current
hour time. Press and hold the ’HOUR‘ button to
scroll through numbers quickly. When the number
displayed approaches the desired setting, press
and release the button to advance one digit at
a time. (AM is indicated in the upper left hand
corner of the clock display and PM in the lower
left hand corner).
3. Press the ’MIN‘ button to select the current
minute time. Press and hold the ’MIN‘ button to
scroll through numbers quickly. When the number
displayed approaches the desired setting, press and
release the button to advance one digit at a time.
Brewing coffee – manual operation
1. Lift the water tank lid and fill the water tank
with cold water. The number of cups is shown
by the water level indicator. Do not exceed the
maximum fill level. It is recommended not to
make less than 4 cups.
There are two drip holes on the back of the
water tank to prevent exceeding the capacity of
the Coffee Maker. If too much water is added it
will flow from these holes down the back of the
Coffee Maker.
Note
While the non-drip feature is a convenient
way to pour a cup of coffee mid-cycle, we
recommend you wait until the completion
of the brew cycle, as the strength and flavour
of the coffee poured mid-cycle will vary from
the finished brew.
While this temporarily stops the coffee from
dripping into the carafe, it does not stop the
brewing cycle. After pouring a cup of coffee,
the carafe should immediately be returned
to the hot plate for completion of the brewing
cycle and to prevent the filter basket from
over flowing.
Note
TO AVOID THE FILTER BASKET OVERFLOWING, THE CARAFE MUST FIT SECURELY INTO THE COFFEE
MAKER HOT PLATE, WITH THE LID ON AT ALL TIMES. IF NOT PROPERLY POSITIONED ON THE
HOT PLATE, HOT WATER OR HOT COFFEE MAY OVERFLOW.
DO NOT OPEN THE WATER TANK LID DURING THE BREWING CYCLE AS HOT STEAM COULD CAUSE
INJURY. IF WATER/COFFEE IS NOT DRIPPING FROM THE COFFEE MAKER, IMMEDIATELY PRESS THE
ON/OFF BUTTON, SWITCH OFF AT THE POWER OUTLET, UNPLUG AND WAIT 10 MINUTES BEFORE
OPENING THE WATER TANK LID AND CHECKING THE FILTER BASKET.
THE COFFEE MAKER BECOMES VERY HOT DURING THE BREWING CYCLE. PLEASE HANDLE WITH
EXTREME CARE.

Cleaning
Before cleaning ensure that the on/off button is in
the off position. Switch off at the power outlet,
unplug the power cord and allow the Coffee Maker
to cool.
Open the water tank lid and remove the stainless
steel mesh filter basket. The stainless steel mesh
filter basket, filter basket holder and carafe can
be washed in hot soapy water then rinsed and
dried thoroughly.
The outer housing can be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth (do not use abrasive agents or cloths which can
damage the surface). The warming plate can be
wiped with a clean damp cloth when necessary.
Do not try to clean the inside of the water
chamber with a cloth, this will leave a residue
of lint and may clog your Coffee Maker. Just
rinse with cold water periodically.
Note
Removal of mineral deposits
Mineral deposits from hard water can build up
in the water tank and internal tubes. If these
deposits are not removed, the brew time will
be extended.
To remove mineral deposits
1. Fill the water tank to the maximum mark with
2
/3 cold tap water and
1
/3 white vinegar.
2. Ensure the filter holder is firmly positioned into
place. Close the water tank lid.
3. Position the carafe, with the lid on, on the hot
plate and switch the Coffee Maker on. Allow the
mixture to drip through the machine until the
cycle is complete.
4. Once the cycle is complete empty the carafe and
refill the water tank with water. Place the carafe
back into position on the hot plate.
5. Switch the Coffee Maker on and allow the fresh
water to drip through. Once the cycle is
complete, switch the machine off and empty the
carafe. Mineral deposits will have been removed

Handy hints
• Coffee strength and flavour is an individual
preference. It is suggested that you experiment
with different brands, flavours and amounts
of coffee.
• Always use finely ground coffee for drip filter
coffee makers. If the coffee is too coarse the
water will pass rapidly through the Coffee Maker
resulting in poor extraction of coffee flavour.
• To maintain coffee freshness, store opened
packets of coffee in an air tight container in
a cool dark place.
• Brewed coffee can be kept hot for an indefinite
period of time, however the flavour of the coffee
will deteriorate with time.
