Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Russell Hobbs® 12 Cup
24 Hour Programmable Coffeemaker with LCD Clock and Timer. Use the
Brew Strength Button to ensure optimum flavor and offer a stronger cup
of coffee. Left unattended, this Coffeemaker will keep your Carafe of
freshly-brewed coffee warm for up to 2 hours. The non-stick Warming
Plate, Auto Pause & Pour and LED Power Indicator Light are some of the
features that make this Coffeemaker a must in every kitchen.
Before Brewing Coffee for the First Time
WARNING: To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do not immerse
Cord, Plug or appliance in water or any other liquid.
1. Before preparing coffee in your new Coffeemaker, thoroughly clean
the Carafe, Carafe Lid and Removable Filter Basket in warm, soapy
water. Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts.
NOTE: The Removable Filter Basket must be
placed into the Coffeemaker with the
2 handles, located on the sides of the
Filter Basket, aligning with the 2 notches
on the inside of the unit (see Figure 3).
Press the Filter Basket down until it
clicks into place.
2. Clean the inside of the Coffeemaker by
brewing 2 full Carafes using cool water
(see Brewing Instructions). Do not place
a filter or coffee in the Removable Filter
Basket for this initial cleaning.
NOTE: At the end of the first brewing cycle,
turn the Coffeemaker OFF and wait
10 minutes for the appliance to cool.
Turn unit ON again and brew a second
Carafe using cool water only.
Coffee Filters
Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores and
where Coffeemakers are sold. Standard #4 filters should be used.
Permanent gold filters may also be purchased, eliminating the need for
disposable paper filters.
The use of basket-style paper filters is not recommended, since they do
not conform to the shape of the Removable Filter Basket and may cause
coffee to back up and spill over during brewing.
