Preparing Your Coffeemaker for Use
•Carefully unpack the Coffeemaker and remove all packaging materials.
•Before making coffee in your new MR. COFFEE® Coffeemaker, thoroughly clean the carafe, carafe lid, filter holder and detachable water tank with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
NOTE: CARAFE, WATER RESERVOIR, CARAFE LID AND FILTER BASKET ARE DISHWASHER SAFE.
•You may wipe the warming plate with a clean, damp cloth.
However, do not immerse the Coffeemaker in water or any other liquid.
•Prior to brewing your first pot of coffee, operate Coffeemaker once or twice with water but without ground coffee or a paper filter. This will remove any dust that may have settled inside the Coffeemaker which might affect the flavor of the coffee.
IMPORTANT – Use Cold Water for Best Results
•Wash decanter, removable water reservoir, decanter lid and removable filter basket insert with a mixture of mild detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly.
PREPARING COFFEEMAKER FOR BREWING COFFEE
•Place your MR. COFFEE® Coffeemaker on a flat, level surface away from any edge.
•Plug the unit into a 120 Volt, 60 Hz AC only outlet.
•The lid of the carafe must be properly snapped on during the brewing process and the carafe must be set on the warming plate.
•The filter basket must be properly locked in during the brewing process.
CAUTION: If the filter basket is not completely inserted, the Pause ’n Serve feature will not function properly. It could cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.
•Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
•Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.
