GETTING STARTED
1. After unpacking, before first use, remove all stickers, packing material, and literature.
2. Wash all parts as instructed in the Care and Cleaning section.
3. Pour water up to 8-cup level mark in the water reservoir.
Brew it through as instructed in "BREWING," but do not add coffee grounds to the basket
style paper filter. When done, turn off the coffeemaker and discard the water from
the carafe.
BREWING
1. Lift one-piece cover, fill water reservoir with water. Do not overfill. Do not exceed the
8-cup maximum level.

recommend a heaping tablespoon for every cup). Make sure basket style paper filter
is secured in place. Close the lid.
