HOW TO MAKE COFFEE

■To ensure best possible taste, clean unit by brewing at least one complete cycle using water only (no coffee).

■Plug in coffeemaker. The clock will flash until time is set.

■Press H to set current hour with AM or PM. Press M to set current minutes. The clock is now set.

■ Remove water reservoir. ■ Fill water reservoir.

■Replace water reservoir. It must be fully seated.

■Make sure filter basket is securely locked into position to

reduce risk of filter basket overflow.

■Place a disposable cupcake-style paper filter in filter basket. A permanent filter may also be used.

■Use a good quality filter. The sides of the filter should be upright against the sides of the filter basket to avoid filter collapsing.

■For each cup of coffee being made, place one level scoop or tablespoon of medium-ground automatic drip coffee into filter. Lower top cover to close.

■To avoid basket overflow when brewing decaffeinated coffee, add less coffee per cup (3/4 full scoop or 3/4 tablespoon per

cup) OR brew in the Flavor+™ mode.
