When the brewing cycle has been completed, five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue to stream from the filter for several seconds.
Note: Reservoir cover may be hot during and directly after brewing. Wait at least 10 minutes before opening.

This feature interrupts the flow of coffee from the basket to let you pour that first cup
NOTE: Removing carafe for more than 20 seconds may cause filter basket to overflow.
Cleaning and
Maintenance
Always turn coffeemaker off and remove the plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
Lift up the reservoir cover. Remove and discard the paper filter and ground coffee. The filter basket can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of the dishwasher. Dry all parts after use.
Do not put any water in the unit once the filter basket has been removed. Wipe the area under the filter basket with a damp cloth.
Remove the carafe from the heating plate. Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and lid can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher. The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on the upper rack only.
Helpful Hint: Coffee contains oils that can build up on your carafe. For best performance, wash carafe and wipe pour spout clean after each use.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other liquids. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints and other blemishes on the glass housing can be washed off with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wipe resting plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean the resting plate. Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.
Decalcification
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium deposits that form over time on the metal parts of the coffeemaker.
For best performance from your coffeemaker, decalcify the base unit from time to time. The frequency depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the coffeemaker. The flashing Clean light will indicate when you should clean your coffeemaker.
NOTE: Before decalcifying your coffeemaker, remember to remove the charcoal water filter from the water filter holder located in the water reservoir.
To decalcify, fill the water reservoir
to capacity with a mixture of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water. Press the Clean button. When the Clean light glows, turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the On/Off button. The Clean light will shine steadily. The coffeemaker is now in Clean mode. One cycle should be sufficient to adequately clean the coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the five beeps sound, the coffeemaker will shut off. Turn the coffeemaker on to see if the Clean light continues to flash. If it does, turn it off and then repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water.
If the Clean light no longer flashes, turn the coffeemaker off and then run one cycle of fresh cold water through the unit before using the unit again to brew coffee.
Notes on the Clean Function
Pressing the Clean button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return the coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing On/Off will also exit the Clean mode and turn the coffeemaker off.
