5. MAKING COFFEE

1- Place the coffee maker on a hard, flat surface. With the coffeemaker turned off, plug the machine into
a 120V outlet.
2- Fill the carafe with fresh, cold water (preferably bottled or filtered water). Open the hinged cover and
pour the water into the water tank. The number of cups is shown by the water level indicator. Do not
exceed the maximum level Fig. 1, 2 and 3.
Note:
- The amount of brewed coffee will be less than the water placed in the coffeemaker since about 10% is
absorbed by the coffee grounds and the filter.
3- Place the carafe with its lid on to the heating plate (h) making sure it is secure on the heating plate to
activate the pouring mechanism
CAUTION: To avoid overflowing the filter holder, the carafe must fit securely into
the coffeemaker with the lid on. If not properly positioned on the heating plate, it
could cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.
4- Open the coffee maker lid (b), insert the filter holder (i) by using the two handles on either side. Make
sure it is securely pushed down and locked into place. Then insert a standard #4 cone paper filter or
the permanent filter (j) into the filter holder (i). Use a fresh paper filter or clean the permanent filter for
each carafe of coffee Fig. 4 and 5.
5- Add about 2 ounces of ground coffee for 12 cups. Experiment with the amount of coffee used in order
to adjust the flavor to your taste. Do not exceed the maximum level Fig. 6.
6- Close the top lid making sure it is securely closed Fig. 7.
7. Press the On/Off button (k). The button will illuminate, indicating that your coffee maker has begun the
brewing cycle.
