Exiting Set Program Time Mode

Set Program Time may be exited in any of three ways:

1.Press the Program Set button again. This will cause the coffeemaker to revert to its previous state.

2.Press any other button (except Hour or Minute). Set Program Time mode will be exited and the function of the button pressed will be executed.

3.Do nothing. If neither the Hour nor Minute button is pressed for a period of five seconds, the Set Program Time mode will be exited and the programmed setting will be in effect.

INSERTING THE WATER FILTER

a. Remove the filter from polybag and soak in cold tap water for 15 minutes.

b. Remove the water filter holder from the coffeemaker by lifting it out of the reservoir area with your thumb and forefinger.

c. Grasp the stem in one hand. Using the thumb of the 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 filter 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 or more often if you have hard water.

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

MAKING COFFEE WITH WHOLE BEANS

Before you make the first pot of coffee in your new Cuisinart® Fully Automatic Burr Grind & Brew™ Thermal Coffeemaker, we recommend operating the coffeemaker once, using only water and a paper filter. This will remove any dust or residues which will remain in the system from the manufacturing process. Note: Allow the grinder to grind free of beans for this process.

1.Fill the Water Reservoir

Open the reservoir lid. Pour the desired amount of water in the reservoir using the water level window indicator. Close the reservoir lid. Note: Do not exceed the

12-cup (1.8 L) line. Doing so may cause the carafe to overflow.

2.Add Beans

Lift the hopper lid, using the recess on either side. Fill the hopper with beans. We recommend keeping the hopper at least halfway full. Be sure that you have a sufficient amount of beans in your hopper for the amount of coffee you intend to brew (maximum capacity is ½ lb (250 g)). Over packing may result in jamming the grinder.

For easy filling, the hopper container can be taken out by turning the hopper container release knob to the unlock position.

Note: Do not put any water in the unit once the hopper container has been removed. If water gets into the grinder motor, the motor may become damaged and may malfunction.

Put hopper lid back in place.

Another impressive characteristic of the Cuisinart DGB-900BCC is its sleek and modern design, which fits well in any kitchen decor. The stainless steel body is not only stylish but also durable. The machine includes a convenient bean hopper that can hold up to half a pound of coffee beans, along with a grind-off feature that allows users to brew pre-ground coffee effortlessly.

Maintaining the DGB-900BCC is straightforward, thanks to its removable parts designed for easy cleaning. The coffee maker is equipped with a permanent gold-tone coffee filter that eliminates the need for paper filters while trapping fine coffee grounds, ensuring a smooth brew. The machine also features an easy-to-read water level indicator, allowing users to fill the reservoir accurately.
