OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER

10.Close the filter holder lid. WARNING: Do not operate your coffee maker if the lid does not close completely. If the lid does not close completely, check to see that the filter basket is properly positioned inside the filter holder.

11.Secure the lid on the glass carafe until it locks into place . Place the carafe on the non-stick warming plate. For brewing the lid should be completely closed.

12.Plug the unit into an outlet and flip the ON/OFF switch into the ON position. The ON/OFF switch will illuminate and the coffee maker will start the brewing process.

13.Do not remove the glass carafe from the warming plate until the brewing process is complete.

14.In a few minutes the coffee maker will complete the brewing cycle. NOTE: To terminate the brewing process at any time, flip the ON/OFF switch into the OFF position.

15.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 comple- tion, 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.

16.The separate heating element for the non-stick warming plate ensures that the coffee maintains the correct temperature after brewing is complete.

17.To pour coffee after brewing is complete, remove the carafe from the non-stick warming plate. Once the desired amount of coffee has been poured, return the carafe to the non-stick warming plate.

18.The non-stick warming plate will keep your coffee hot, but the sooner you drink it, the better it will taste. The coffee maker will keep the coffee hot and then automatically shut-off after 2 hours.

19.Flip the ON/OFF switch 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 gold-tone filter and filter basket thoroughly with water.
