Charcoal Water Filter; Before Brewing Your First Pot; Making Coffee With Whole Beans - Cuisinart DGB-700 Series Instruction Booklet

CHARCOAL WATER FILTER

Your coffeemaker comes with a
charcoal water filter that eliminates
chlorine, bad tastes and odors from
tap water.
Inserting the Water Filter
• Remove the filter from polybag and
soak it, fully immersed, in cold tap
water for 15 minutes.
• Lift the water filter holder out of the
water reservoir (see page 6, #12).
• Press down on the filter compartment
and pull toward you to open.
• Place filter into the holder and snap
it closed. Be careful – improper
placement can tear the filter skin.
• Flush filter by running cold tap water
through holes in bottom of
compartment for 10 seconds.
• Allow the filter to drain completely.
• Slide the water filter holder back into
the channel in the water reservoir,
pushing it down to the base of the
unit.
NOTE: We recommend
changing the water filter
every 60 days or after
60 uses, and more
often if you have
hard water.
Replacement filters
can be purchased
in stores, by
calling Cuisinart
customer
service, or at

BEFORE BREWING YOUR
FIRST POT OF COFFEE
During the manufacturing process, dust
can get trapped in your coffeemaker. We
recommend flushing out the system
before brewing your first pot of coffee.
Simply follow the below, under "Making
Coffee with Pre-Ground Beans" (page 11).
Skip step #1 and be sure to use only
water and a paper filter...no coffee!
Once you've done that, brew a pot of real
coffee and get ready to enjoy Cuisinart at
its best!
MAKING COFFEE WITH
WHOLE BEANS
1. Follow instructions for "Before Brewing
Your First Pot of Coffee" above.
2. Fill the Water Reservoir
Open the reservoir lid and pour in water, using
the water level window indicator to measure
the number of cups desired. NOTE: Do not
exceed the 12-cup line. Doing so could cause
carafe to overflow.
3. Add Beans
Remove the hopper lid. Make sure the
hopper is in the LOCK position with arrows
lined up, then add enough beans for the num-
ber of cups you intend to brew. We recom-
mend keeping the hopper at least half full. But,
be careful: maximum capacity is ½ lb. and
overfilling the hopper may jam the grinder.
