AUTO-ON FEATURE
To pre-set your coffeemaker to begin brewing at a later time, first follow steps
1-5 in the Brewing Instructions section. Check to make sure that the clock is
set to the correct time. If it is not, follow the above instructions to set the clock.
Press the PROGRAM Button once, the LCD Display will flash "PROGRAM".
Press the HOUR and MIN Buttons until the desired brew time is reached. Make
sure the proper "AM/PM" appears on the left side of the LCD display. Press
the AUTO ON button. The green "AUTO" light will illuminate in the upper right
corner and the pre-set brew time will be displayed momentarily, indicating that
the coffeemaker is now waiting for the pre-set brew time to be reached before it
begins the brewing cycle.
Note: If the AUTO ON button is pressed during the brewing process, the
brewing will stop and the unit will turn off.
To Cancel Auto On: Press the AUTO ON button and the green light will shut off.
To re-set the Auto On time so the unit will turn on at the same pre-set time the
next day, press the AUTO ON button and the green "AUTO" light will illuminate.
Note: The Auto On feature will turn off after completing the brewing process at
the pre-set brew time. The AUTO ON button must be pressed after each use in
order for the unit to turn on at the same pre-set time the following day.
Note: In the event of a power outage or if the unit is unplugged, the clock will
reset to 12:00 and the Auto On feature will have to be reprogrammed.
BREW STRENGTH FEATURE
Use the Brew Strength feature when you plan on brewing only a small amount
of coffee. This feature slows down the brewing process so that the smaller
amount of coffee will have the same taste quality as when you brew an entire
carafe. The Brew Strength feature can be activated before the unit is turned ON
or during the brewing process by pressing the BREW STRENGTH button. When
this feature is activated, a coffee cup icon will be displayed in the LCD display.
Note: To deactivate the Brew Strength feature, press the BREW STRENGTH
button again and the coffee cup icon will disappear.
AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE
As an added convenience, your coffeemaker has been designed with an Auto
Shut-Off feature. When the brewing cycle is complete, the coffeemaker will
automatically shut off after 2 hours.
HINTS FOR GREAT TASTING COFFEE
• A clean coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular
cleaning, as specified in Care and Cleaning is highly recommended. Always
use fresh, cool water in your coffeemaker. Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC
coffee, promote fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular
grinds will require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a
finer grind.
• Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly
sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. For optimum coffee, buy
whole beans and grind them just before brewing.
• Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
