the coffeemaker by lifting it out of the reservoir area with your thumb and forefinger.

c. Grasp stem in one hand. Using thumb of other hand, gently press down and pull toward you. Compartment will flip open.

d. Place the filter in the holder and close the water filter holder; you will hear a snap indicating it is in place.

NOTE: Caution must be used when inserting the charcoal filter. Improper placement in the holder can cause tearing of the filter skin.

e. Hold the filter under cold running tap water for 10 seconds to flush. You should place the hole openings in the side of the unit directly under the water stream.

f.Allow the filter to drain completely.

g.Replace the water filter holder in the reservoir area of the coffeemaker, pushing it all the way down to the base of the unit, along the reservoir wall.

NOTE: We recommend changing the water filter every 60 days or 60 uses, more often if you have hard water.

Replacement water filters can be purchased in stores or by calling customer service or through the Cuisinart web site.

2.Fill the water reservoir:

When filling the coffeemaker with water, refer to the water window on the side of the unit and fill to the desired number of cups. Be sure to add a small amount of extra

water to account for the amount of water lost in wetting the grounds and lost as steam during the brewing process.

3.Add the ground coffee:

Remove the filter basket by grasping the handle and lifting straight up, and then place it on the countertop. Insert a #4 paper filter or permanent filter. Be sure that the paper filter is completely open and fully inserted in the basket. It may help to fold and flatten the seams of a paper filter beforehand.

Add the desired amount of ground coffee, corresponding to the number of cups being brewed. Many coffee bars and the Specialty Coffee Association of America recommend adding 2 rounded tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water. Some coffee manufacturers recommend using

1 tablespoon per cup. We recommend using 1 tablespoon of ground coffee per cup, but use more or less to suit your taste.

NOTE: The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 15 tablespoons for this 12-cup coffeemaker. Exceeding this amount may cause overflow if the coffee is too finely ground.

Replace the filter basket in the filter basket holder, making sure the coffee reservoir is in place. Flip the lid closed, and press firmly to be sure that it closes securely.

4.Power unit:

Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. Turn the function knob to brew, turn the On/Off knob to “On” and release. The red indicator light will turn on. Or, set the Auto On function and the green indicator will light.
