OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER (continued)
NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee after the brewing process is complete will always be slightly less than the amount of water placed in the coffee maker’s water reservoir, since some water is absorbed by the coffee grounds and filter. Add a little extra water at the beginning so that you have the exact number of cups desired.
PREPARING THE COFFEE: FIGURE 5
1.Swing the filter basket door outward to your left. Lift out removable filter basket. The included permanent filter may be used instead of or in addition to the paper filter. If using paper filters, insert a #4
2.Place the desired amount of ground coffee in the filter. According to coffee industry standards, use one standard coffee measure (2 level tablespoons) of grounds for each six ounces of water. After using your coffee maker several times, the amount of coffee may be adjusted to suit your particular taste by decreasing or increasing the amount of coffee used.
NOTE: Be sure to use coffee grounds prepared specifically for use with automatic drip coffee makers.
3.Return the filter basket with the filled filter to the door. Be sure the filter basket is seated properly in the door. Swing the door closed and snap into place. CAUTION: Do not operate your coffee maker if the door does not close completely. If the door does not close completely, check to see that the filter basket is properly sealed, and snap door into place.
4.Press the ON/OFF / TIMER button and the TIMER light will illuminate. Press the ON/OFF / TIMER button again, and then the ON/OFF
light will illuminate indicating that the coffee maker has begun the brewing cycle. NOTE: If you wish to use the AROMA function, press the AROMA
button immediately after ON/OFF light is illuminated. When the AROMA function is activated, the 
indicator will illuminate.
