Using Your Coffeemaker

How to Make Coffee

1.Plug in Coffeemaker and set Clock. See “To Set the Clock and Program Automatic Brew” on page 5.

2.Before first use, wash Carafe. See “To Clean the Coffeemaker Parts” on page 7. Then run one full Carafe of clean water through a complete cycle by following steps 6 through 10.

3.To make coffee, lift Cover to access Filter Basket.

Move Shower Head into a

position over

the Reservoir.

Place dispos-

able paper

filter in Filter

Basket. Use a good quality

cupcake (basket) style filter, 8 to 12 cup size. A permanent filter may also be used.

4.For each cup of coffee being made, place one level measuring table- spoon of ground coffee into filter.

5.After adding ground coffee into filter, move Shower Head back into posi- tion over Filter Basket.

6.Fill Carafe with the desired amount of cold water, and pour into Reservoir. Flip Cover down to close.

NOTE: If Shower Head is positioned over Reservoir when Cover is closed, it will automatically be swiveled into position over Filter Basket when the Cover is closed.

7.Place Carafe with Carafe Lid attached on Keep-Hot Plate.

8.Press ON/OFF button once to turn the Coffeemaker

on. The button will glow red when in use.

9.When finished, press the ON/OFF button once and unplug.

10.If storing Coffeemaker, the Cord can be pushed into a special cord stor- age area in the back of the unit. NOTE: If the Coffeemaker is not turned off manually, it will automati- cally shut off in two hours.

CAUTION

Overflowing coffee and hot water are a burn hazard. To avoid overflows of the Filter Basket or Pause ‘N Serve:

•Use one level tablespoon of ground coffee per cup. Excessive amounts of coffee grinds will clog the Filter Basket.

•Do not grind coffee too finely. This will clog the filter.

•Use a good quality “cupcake” or basket-style filter. The sides of the filter should be upright against the sides of the Filter Basket to avoid filter collapsing. Paper filters are less likely to clog than permanent filters.

•Return Carafe to the Keep-Hot Plate within 20 seconds if you are using the Pause ‘N Serve feature. Hot water continues to flow into the Filter Basket when this fea- ture is used and it may overflow unless carafe is returned within 20 seconds.

•Make sure Carafe is fully seated on the Keep-Hot Plate.
