Preparing To Brew; Adding Water; Adding Coffee; Preparing The Carafe - Cuisinart DCC780 Series Instruction Manual

4. Preparing to Brew

Before making coffee for the first time, we recommend operating the
appliance once, using only water, to remove any dust of residue that may
remain in the system from the manufacturing process.
A. Adding Water
Open the lid of the main unit and pour the desired amount of water into
the water tank, using the water level indicator. Close the reservoir lid,
ensuring not to exceed the 2L maximum.
N.B: Do not exceed 2L (12 cups) of water. Doing so could cause the carafe
to overflow.
N.B: The machine will use all of the water added, regardless of the amount
of coffee used.
B. Adding Coffee
This machine uses ground coffee. With the scoop provided, we recommend
you use 1 level scoop of ground coffee per cup. The maximum capacity
for ground coffee is 12 cups. Exceeding this may cause the appliance to
overflow.
N.B: Be careful to only add the amount of coffee for the number of cups
you wish to brew. The machine will use all the coffee regardless of the
amount of water used.
To add coffee, open the lid of the main unit and scoop the desired amount
of coffee into the filter basket. Then close the lid.
C. Preparing the Carafe
Rinse the carafe with hot water, before every use.
