Water Filter (Continued)
Each charcoal water filter comes with a set of monthly stickers to
attach to the label located on the water chamber lid. Write day
next to month; this will allow you to keep track when you started
using the water filter. Do not attempt to clean the filter.
If you use spring or bottled water or your water contains only a
small amount of chlorine, you may not notice a difference in the
taste of your coffee when using the filter.
Brewing
1. Make sure unit is in the OFF position O, (top of switch
pushed in). The indicator light will be off.
2. Plug into 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
3. Lift up the hinged water fill lid located at the front of unit and
slowly add cold water to desired level using the water level
indicator (between 3-10 cups). Brewing less than 3 cups or
15 ounces is not recommended. You may also pour water
directly into the charcoal filter chamber. Both filling methods
allow water to pass through the charcoal water filter.
4. For optimal holding temperature, rinse the inside of thermal
carafe with warm water before brewing; empty and screw lid
on tightly. Place carafe securely onto coffeemaker.
5. Open swing out filter basket. Insert a #4 cone-shaped paper
filter into removable liner and add coffee grounds. Return basket
to closed position; it will click into place. Use approximately
1 measuring spoon of grounds for every cup of coffee.
6. Press bottom of switch to ON position I. The indicator light
will turn on.
IMPORTANT: Pipes become hot during use.
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is
complete, “pause and pour,” simply remove carafe. Dripping
will automatically cease. Return carafe securely back onto
unit within 30 seconds; dripping will resume.
Note: If the carafe is not returned to the coffeemaker, the coffee
will overflow from the filter basket.
8. The coffeemaker will switch off automatically approximately
15 minutes after turning the unit on.
9. To serve, carefully remove thermal carafe and loosen lid by
turning it counter-clockwise. The indication dot should be in
the front position to pour coffee. Tighten lid after serving.
10. Unplug and allow to cool for 10 minutes between cycles.
