OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER (continued)

Using the Automatic Brew Function:

8.If you wish to use the Automatic Brew function, first follow all of the directions under the “Program Automatic Brew” section of this manual. Then follow all of the directions under “Operating Your Coffee Maker” up until #6 in the “Preparing the Coffee” section of this manual.

9.In a few minutes the coffee maker will complete the brewing cycle and automatically shut off. The digital display will illuminate and then automatically switch off after 10 minutes. NOTE: To terminate the brewing process at any time, press the ON/OFF button. The digital display will illuminate for one minute and then turn off automatically.

10.NOTE: If you would like a cup of coffee before the full pot is brewed, the Pause ‘N Serve feature allows you to interrupt the brewing process. The brewing process does not stop during this period; only the flow of coffee from the basket. Do not remove the carafe for longer than 30 seconds or the coffee may overflow from the basket stops. While we offer this feature, we do not recommend you pour the coffee before the cycle has reached completion, since the coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a flavor which is very different from the flavor at the end of the cycle. Removing a cup during the brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the finished pot.

11.To pour coffee after brewing is complete, unscrew the lid 180 degrees so that the notch on the lid is in line with the pouring spout. Once the desired amount of coffee has been poured, screw the lid back on to retain the coffee temperature. The thermal carafe will keep coffee hot after brewing is complete.

12.Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit OFF when the carafe is empty or when the coffee maker is not in use. After brewing cycle is complete, discard the grounds and rinse the permanent filter and filter basket thoroughly with water. (See “Cleaning Your Coffee Maker” section of this manual for more details).

13.NOTE: If you have not used the coffee maker in awhile, run one cycle with water only (without coffee) to clean it out. Fill the water tank to the top cup when you perform this procedure. CAUTION: Never put the carafe in the microwave.
