Setting the time on Krups EC311

Setting the time on your Krups EC311 coffee maker is a simple process that doesn't require any special skills. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

• Place your coffee maker on a hard, flat surface and plug the power cord into a 120V outlet.
• When you plug in the coffee maker for the first time, "1:00 pm" will flash on the display. This indicates that the clock needs to be set.
• Press and hold the "Prog" button for about 3 seconds to change the clock to the correct time. You can also turn off the machine and then press the "O/I" button to set the clock.
• The hours on the display will flash, indicating that you can now adjust the time. Use the "H/Mn" button to set the correct hour.
• After setting the hour, press the "Prog" button again to set the minutes. The minutes will start blinking, and you can adjust them using the same "H/Mn" button.
• Once you have set the correct time, press the "Prog" button once more to confirm your settings.
• The display will show the programmed time, and a clock symbol will appear to indicate that the time has been successfully set.

In addition to setting the time, you can also program your Krups EC311 to start brewing automatically at a specific time. Simply follow the steps mentioned above and press the "Prog" button until the display shows "8888." Then, press the "Prog" button again to set the machine to start automatically every day.

It is important to note that if your machine is unplugged or there is a power failure, the clock will revert to "1:00 pm." In such cases, you will need to repeat the instructions to reset the clock.

Adjusting the hours

To adjust the hours on your Krups Fresh Aroma, start by locating the "prog" button on the machine. Hold this button for about 3 seconds to change the clock to the correct time. After doing this, the hours on the display will flash "88__".

Now, to adjust the hours, simply press the "h/mn" button until the desired hour appears on the screen. You can increase or decrease the hours by repeatedly pressing this button. This will allow you to set the correct hour for your desired time.

If you want to set the time in military format, you can do so by continuing to increase the hours during the setting process. This will automatically switch the time format to military time.

Once you've adjusted the hours, you can move on to setting the minutes. Press the "prog" button again, and the display will blink "XX 88". This indicates that you can now adjust the minutes. Press the "h/mn" button until the correct minutes are displayed.

After setting both the hours and minutes, press the "prog" button one more time to confirm your settings. Your Krups Fresh Aroma will now be set to the correct time of day.

Changing the minutes

To set the minutes on your Krups Fresh Aroma, start by locating the "prog" button on the front of the machine. Hold the "prog" button for 3 seconds to change the clock to the right time. The hours on the display will flash "88__" as a result.

Now, to adjust the minutes, press the "prog" button again. The display will blink "XX 88." Use the "h/mn" button to adjust the minutes, pressing it until the correct number of minutes is reflected on the display.

If you want to set the time in military format, continue to increase the hours during the setting process.

Finally, confirm that the time is set correctly by pressing the "prog" button once more.

Confirming the time

Firstly, locate the "prog" button on the front of your machine. This button is essential for setting the time and adjusting the clock. Press and hold this "prog" button for approximately three seconds. This action will initiate the time-setting process.

Once you have held the "prog" button for three seconds, you will notice that the hours on the display will start flashing, showing "88__". This flashing display indicates that you can now set the correct time. To adjust the hours, locate the "h/mn" button on your machine. By pressing this button, you can increase or decrease the number of hours displayed until you reach the desired hour. Ensure that the hour displayed is accurate and reflects your current time.

After setting the hours, you can move on to setting the minutes. Similar to adjusting the hours, locate the "h/mn" button again and press it to increase or decrease the minutes displayed. Keep pressing this button until the correct minute is shown, matching your current time.

Once you have set both the hours and minutes accurately, your Krups Fresh Aroma coffee maker will now display the correct time. It is important to ensure that the time is set correctly, especially if you intend to use any timer functions or automatic brewing features.

Remember, if your machine has a timer, it is crucial to program the clock before using any timer-dependent features. This process ensures that your coffee maker functions as expected and that your brew is ready when you need it.

Programming the coffee maker to brew

To program your Krups coffee maker to brew, you must first set the time of day. To do this, press and hold the "prog" button for three seconds. This will make the hours on the display flash "88__". You can then adjust the hours by pressing the "h/mn" button until the correct hour is shown. Press "prog" again to adjust the minutes; the display will blink "XX 88". Press the "h/mn" button until the correct minutes are displayed. Confirm the time by pressing "prog" one more time.

If you want to use military time, you can do so by continuing to increase the hours during the setting process.

Once the time of day is set, you can program the coffee maker to start automatically at the same time each day by pressing "prog" again. The display will briefly blink "prog" before showing "8888". Press "prog" once more to set the hour and minutes for the brew time, using the same process as in Step 2.

Press "prog" one last time, and a clock symbol should appear on the display, indicating that the programmable timer has been set. Your coffee will now begin brewing automatically at the time you specified.
