Cleaning, Filling The Water Chamber | GE 681131690690 manual

instructions for use

Filling The Water Chamber

1.Open the hinged water chamber lid (see figure 5). Pour in the desired quantity of water (see figure 6). The amount of freshly brewed coffee delivered after the brewing process will always be slightly less than the amount put into the water chamber. This is due to the absorption of the water by the ground coffee. Therefore, put in a little more water to begin with so that you will have the number of cups that you desire.

2.Place the glass carafe with lid in position on the warming plate.

3.Turn on your Coffee Maker using the on/off button. The indicator light will illuminate indicating that the brewing process has begun (see figure 7).

Pause & Serve Feature

This device automatically stops the flow of brewed coffee through the filter cone if the glass carafe is removed from the warming plate during the brewing cycle. You have about 20 seconds between the removal of the carafe and reinserting it back onto the warming plate. The Pause & Serve device closes off the filter cone so effectively that there is virtually no coffee-drip onto the warming plate. Once the carafe is replaced, the brewing process and the flow of coffee into the carafe can be resumed.

Caution

If the coffee DOES drip onto the warming plate after the removal of the carafe, it is usually an indication that the seal in the filter holder is missing or defective. It is also possible that too much ground coffee has been placed in the filter paper. This causes the water that jets into the filter cone to overflow between the filter and the sides of the filter cone. If this blockage and subsequent dripping does occur, put the glass carafe immediately back onto the warming plate, and allow the full brewing cycle to run its course. Do not swing out the swivel filter until the brewing process is completed.

Cleaning

•Before cleaning, turn off the machine, unplug it, and allow it to cool down.

•Clean the filter basket, carafe and lid in a solution of warm water and mild liquid soap. These parts can also be placed in the upper level of your dishwasher away from the heating element for safe effective cleaning.

•The machine can be wiped clean by using a damp cloth.

•Clean the brewing head with a damp cloth and remove ground coffee.

•If there is water left in the boiler chamber, let the machine cool down, remove all loose parts and empty through the top opening by turning upside down.

•Never use scouring agents.

•Never immerse the appliance itself in water.

•Never use a cloth to clean inside of the water chamber, as this might leave fuzzy deposits in the chamber. Just rinse with cold water periodically.
