BEFORE BREWING YOUR FIRST CUP OF COFFEE

Follow the steps under “HOW TO BREW COFFEE” but do not add coffee grounds.

SELECTING AND MEASURING GROUND COFFEE

For best results, use coffee ground for use with automatic drip coffeemakers. The amounts shown below are suggested amounts.

TO BREW

USE THIS AMOUNT OF GROUND COFFEE

8 cups

7 tablespoons

6 cups

6 tablespoons

4 cups

5 tablespoons

2 cups

3 tablespoons

Note: Soft Water Usage

In some cases, the combination of soft water with decaffeinated coffee may cause the coffeemaker to overflow. It is recommended to either reduce the amount of ground coffee used or to brew fewer cups of coffee at a time.

HOW TO BREW COFFEE

1.Open the lid and swing the showerhead to the right. Place a MR. COFFEE® brand 8-12 cup cone paper filter or a permanent gold tone filter in the removable filter basket.

2.Add the desired amount of ground coffee to the filter, making sure the grounds are level in the filter.

3.Slide the showerhead back to its original position, making sure it is centered over top of the filter. Close the lid.

4.Remove the water reservoir by grasping the handle and pulling upward. Fill the reservoir with the desired amount of water. Replace the reservoir on the coffeemaker by making sure the two plastic tabs on the top, outside ridge of the reservoir fit tightly on top of the ridges on the body of the appliance. Gently push the reservoir down into position. Return the handle back to its leftward position.

Do not remove the water reservoir at any time during the brewing cycle.

You may notice a small amount of water remaining in the back of the coffeemaker when you remove the reservoir. This is a normal condition.

5.Place the decanter on the warming plate.

Make sure the decanter is accurately centered on the warming plate or the water and grounds will overflow from the brew basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or damage to property. To reduce the risk of damaging the decanter and/or the risk of personal injury, do not add cold water to the decanter if the decanter is already hot. Allow the decanter to cool before using. Do not brew coffee while the water reservoir lid is open.
