How to Use

This appliance is intended for household use only.
BEFORE FIRST USE
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 two handles, located on the sides of
the filter basket, aligning with the two notches on the inside
of the unit (C). Press the filter basket down until it clicks into
place.
2. Clean the inside of the coffeemaker by brewing two full
carafes of tap water (see BREWING INSTRUCTIONS).
C
Do not place permanent 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 ten
minutes for the appliance to cool. Turn unit on and brew second carafe of cool
water.
BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: The display on the clock will flash when you plug in the unit. You may
set the clock at any time (see SETTING THE CLOCK) before or after brewing.
Setting the clock will not affect normal brewing operation.
1. Place the coffeemaker on a flat, level surface. Plug the unit into an AC
electrical outlet.
2. Open the lid by using the lip located on top of the coffeemaker.
3. Place a permanent filter into the removable filter basket. Measure one level
tablespoon of drip or regular ground coffee for each cup of coffee desired. For
stronger or milder coffee, adjust amount of grounds to suit your taste.
Note: We recommend using coffee ground specifically for automatic drip
coffeemakers.
4. Fill the carafe with cold water and pour it into the water reservoir to the
desired level. No less than two cups are recommended. Place the carafe on
the warming plate.
Important: Always use fresh, cool water in your appliance. Warm water or
other liquids, except as listed in the Care and Cleaning Instructions, may
cause damage to the appliance.
Note: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the amount of water
placed into the coffeemaker, since about 10% is absorbed by the coffee grounds
and filter.
5. Close the Lid.
