DECALCIFICATION

Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which 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.

To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water. Turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the ON button. One cycle should be sufficient to adequately clean the coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the five beeps sound, turn coffeemaker off. Repeat operation, this time using fresh cold water.

We warrant that your Cuisinart ® Grind & Brew ThermalAutomatic Coffeemaker will be free of defects in material or workmanship under normal home use for three years from the date of original purchase.

We suggest that you complete and return the enclosed warranty registration card promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase. However, return of the warranty registration is not a condition of these warranties and does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for

purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.

If your coffeemaker should prove to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair it (or, if we think it necessary, replace it) without charge to you. To obtain warranty service, please call our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-0190 or write to:

DGB-600BC specifications

The Cuisinart DGB-600BC Grind & Brew Coffee Maker is a sophisticated kitchen appliance designed for coffee enthusiasts who appreciate the freshness of freshly ground beans. This versatile machine combines a built-in grinder with a standard coffee maker, allowing users to brew flavorful coffee from whole beans with convenience and ease.

One of the standout features of the DGB-600BC is its integrated burr grinder. Burr grinders are known for providing a consistent grind size, which is crucial for achieving the perfect extraction during brewing. Users can adjust the grind settings to suit their preferences, whether they prefer a coarse grind for a French press or a fine grind for espresso. This customization allows for a tailored coffee experience, enhancing the flavor profile of each brew.

The DGB-600BC also boasts a substantial 8-ounce bean hopper, which holds an ample supply of whole coffee beans. The hopper is designed with a sealed lid to keep beans fresh and retain their aromas. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who enjoy brewing coffee often, as it reduces the need for frequent refilling.

This coffee maker offers a 12-cup carafe capacity, making it ideal for households with multiple coffee drinkers or for entertaining guests. The stainless steel carafe retains heat while providing a sleek, modern look. An important characteristic is the machine's programmable settings, allowing users to set their brew time up to 24 hours in advance. This means you can wake up to the enticing aroma of freshly brewed coffee, ready and waiting.

With an easy-to-use control panel, the Cuisinart DGB-600BC includes an LCD display for clear programming and monitoring. Moreover, the machine features a grind-off option, which enables users to brew pre-ground coffee simply by bypassing the grinder if desired.

The DGB-600BC emphasizes user-friendliness with a removable grind chamber, which simplifies cleaning, and a built-in charcoal water filter that helps ensure that water quality is optimal for brewing, thus enhancing the overall taste of the coffee.

Moreover, this coffee maker is designed with a safety shut-off feature after brewing is completed, providing peace of mind for users who may be busy or distracted.

In summary, the Cuisinart DGB-600BC Grind & Brew Coffee Maker offers a perfect blend of technology and functionality, with its built-in burr grinder, programmable features, and user-friendly design, making it an excellent choice for any coffee lover looking to elevate their brewing experience.
