Before You Use Your Coffee Maker

Before preparing coffee in your new Coffee Maker, thoroughly clean the Carafe, Carafe Lid and Permanent Filter Basket in hot, sudsy water. Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts. Clean the inside of the Coffee Maker by brewing two full Carafes of tap water (see “Brewing Instructions” below).

NOTE: At the end of first cycle, turn Coffee Maker off and wait ten minutes. Turn unit on and brew second Carafe of water.

Coffee Yield

12-Cup Coffee Maker: 12 (5 oz.) cups.

NOTE: A 5oz. cup is the American industry standard and is used by most Coffee Maker manufacturers. To fill your favorite mug, fill Coffee Maker reservoir with enough water for 2 cups (10 oz.).

Coffee Filters

Your coffee maker comes with a permanent filter. You may use a Cone-shape paper filter if desired. Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores and where Coffee Makers are sold. Standard #4 filters should be used.

The use of basket-style paper filters is not recommended, since they do not conform to the shape of the Filter Basket and may cause coffee to back up and spill over during brewing.

Brewing Instructions

1.Plug Coffee Maker into any 120 V AC electrical outlet.

2.Fill Carafe with cold tap water and pour into Water Chamber. Markings on the Water Window indicate level of water required to brew desired number of cups. No less than two cups is recommended.

NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the amount of water placed into Coffee Maker, since about 10% is absorbed by coffee grounds and paper filter.
