C. Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1. Open the brew basket drawer.
2. Place a Mr. Coffee® brand 10–12 cup paper basket-style filter or a Mr.
Coffee® permanent filter into the removable filter basket.
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the sides of the filter fit
flush against the side of the filter basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen
the filter before placing in the filter basket and adding ground coffee and
water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake to level the coffee. See
the Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart.
4. Slide the brew basket back into place.
5. Fill the removable water reservoir with cold, fresh water to the desired
capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces.) For easy and accurate filling, the water
markings on the removable water reservoir shows the amount of water
needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill
past the "10 cup MAX line" or water will flow out of the coffeemaker.
NOTE: The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the
amount of water poured in the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum
absorption of water by the coffee grounds.
HOW TO BREW COFFEE NOW
1. After completing the steps in the "Adding Water and Coffee" section and
with the carafe and the filter basket securely in place, turn the coffeemaker
on by pressing the BREW NOW button once. The BREW NOW light will
turn on to signal that the coffeemaker is on and brewing.
2. There will be an audible signal when the brewing is complete.
3. After the used coffee grounds have cooled, carefully remove the filter
basket and discard them.
NOTE: The brew basket drawer is hot after brewing. Always allow the
coffeemaker to cool down before cleaning.
4. Prior to making a second pot of coffee, turn the coffeemaker off. This will
reset the Freshness Timer feature. To turn the coffeemaker off, press the
BREW NOW/OFF button.
5. Make sure the carafe is empty before starting to brew coffee.
6. Be sure to turn your coffeemaker off when no longer using it.
The Freshness Timer Feature
The Freshness Timer feature lets you know how long your coffee has been
waiting for you. At the start of the brew cycle, the Freshness Timer feature
will automatically be activated. The timer will appear in the display under the
clock. This display will be visible any time you are brewing coffee.

CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR
COFFEEMAKER
Daily Cleaning
• Always unplug the coffeemaker and allow to cool before cleaning.
• Remove and wash the filter basket, permanent filter (sold separately),
carafe and carafe lid in a solution of hot water and mild liquid soap.
• Never use abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials.
CAUTION! Never immerse the coffeemaker itself in water, in any other liquid
or place in the dishwasher.
Regular Cleaning and Maintenance
Your coffeemaker is equipped with a clean indicator/function. The Clean Function
is critical to optimize the performance of the coffeemaker. The clean function will
remove minerals (calcium/limestone) found in water that leave deposits in your
coffeemaker and affect its performance. Maintaining your coffeemaker will ensure
that it will continue to brew fast, hot and make great coffee.
