on the unit for grinding with the hopper out of place, the unit will beep continuously until the missing part is installed.

The brewing process can be restarted by pressing the On button. Restarting the process will not affect coffee results.

4.Insert Coffee Filter

Open filter door by pressing filter basket door release button. Remove filter basket cover and place a #4 basket paper filter or Cuisinart’s commercial style permanent filter in the basket.

Note: When using our permanent filter, be sure that the handle is positioned toward the front of the unit. If you do not, the handle may interfere with the flow of coffee into the filter basket.

Also note: Using our permanent gold-tone filter will allow some fine coffee grounds to fall into the carafe.

When using a paper filter, be sure that the filter is completely open while touching the side walls and bottom of the basket.

Put filter basket cover in place. Close filter door. (You will hear a click if the door is properly shut.)

The unit is equipped with a safety interlock system. The unit will not operate if the filter basket cover or filter basket are not in place or if the filter door is not closed. If you try to turn the unit on while the filter compartment is out of place, the unit will beep continuously until the missing part(s) are installed.

Before Brewing Coffee

Remove thermal carafe lid by turning in the direction of the “unlock” arrow. Prewarm carafe by rinsing it out with hot water. PREWARMING THE CARAFE WILL HELP KEEP THE COFFEE HOTTER.

Return the carafe lid to the carafe. To lock the lid, turn in the direction of the lock arrow until it fits tightly on carafe and arrow lines up in the center of the pour spout. This ensures that the lid is closed and in the proper position for brewing and pouring.

Make sure you have replaced the thermal carafe in it’s position on the resting plate and closed the top cover.

3.The coffeemaker will begin brewing at the programmed time.

6.During and After Brewing

The Brew Pause™ feature allows you to remove the carafe from the resting plate during mid-brew. The brewing process does not stop during this period; only the flow of coffee from the basket stops. Do not remove the carafe for longer than 20 seconds or the coffee may overflow the basket. While we offer this feature, we do not recommend that you pour coffee before the cycle has reached completion, since the coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a flavor profile which is very different from the coffee made at the end of the cycle. Removing a cup during the brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the finished pot.

When the brewing cycle is completed, five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue to stream from the filter for several seconds. After brewing, the unit will automatically shut itself off. The thermal carafe will keep the coffee hot for hours.

Bottom of thermal carafe is hot to touch for several minutes after brewing. Use caution.
