Preparing to Brew

A Inserting the Charcoal water fi lter
Your appliance is supplied with two charcoal water fi lters. Before using your coffeemaker, we highly recom-
mend that you insert one to remove impurities from your water, improving water quality and ultimately the
fl avour of your coffee.
ß Remove the fi lter from its packaging and soak in cold tap water for 15 minutes.
ß Lift the lid of the coffee maker and you will fi nd the charcoal water fi lter holder located at the back on the
left of your appliance. To remove, simply lift it up and out from its compartment.
ß Holding the stem of the water fi lter holder in one hand use your other hand to gently press the fi lter holder
door down and pull outwards to fl ip open.
ß Place the fi lter in the holder and close the compartment cover; you will hear a snap indicating fi lter is in place.
N.B. Caution must be used when inserting the charcoal fi lter. Improper placement in the holder can cause
tearing of the fi lter skin.
ß Hold the fi lter under cold running tap water for 10 seconds to fl ush. Hold the water fi lter holder horizon-
tally, directly under the water stream so that the water fl ows through the fi lter compartment.
ß Allow the fi lter to drain completely.
ß Replace the water fi lter holder to its compartment in the coffeemaker, pushing it all the way down to the
base of the unit.
