10.To pour coffee, turn the carafe lid until the POUR arrow aligns with the arrow on the carafe spout. Keep lid closed tightly to keep coffee warm.

USING THERMAL CARAFE

For best performance, rinse the carafe with warm water before brewing. This brings up the temperature and improves the carafe’s thermal properties.

Coffee is brewed directly into carafe through the closed brew thru lid. Always check that lid is properly in place when brewing. Coffee may overflow if lid is not properly in place. See instructions in "Brewing a Pot of Coffee."

The carafe keeps coffee hot up to 4 hours so you can leave it away from coffeemaker for serving. Always check that lid is properly closed in place when not in use, this will ensure that coffee stays hot. See instructions in "Sneak-a-Cup® Interrupt Coffeemaker Feature."

Important: To prevent the lid from falling off, do not turn the arrow on the lid beyond the arrow on the spout.

Excessive steaming or a prolonged brewing cycle is a sign that cleaning is needed. During cleaning, more steaming occurs than when brewing coffee and there may be some spitting.

1.Lift the one-piece cover and pour white vinegar into the water reservoir up to the 4-cup level mark on the water window. Add cold water up to the 6-cup line.

2.Put a paper filter into the brew basket. Close the one-piece cover.

4.Press the Auto/On/Off button twice and let half of the vinegar solution brew into the thermal carafe (until the solution level in the water window goes down to "3"). Turn off the coffeemaker and let it soak for at least 15 minutes to soften the deposits.
