HOW TO USE YOUR COFFEEMAKER

PREPARING YOUR COFFEEMAKER FOR USE:

Carefully unpack the Coffeemaker and remove all packing materials.
Before making coffee in your Coffeemaker, thoroughly clean your glass carafe,
carafe lid and Filter Basket with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not use
harsh or abrasive cleaners.
You may wipe the Warming Plate with a clean damp cloth, however, do not
immerse the Coffeemaker in water or other liquid.
Note: Prior to brewing your first pot of Gevalia coffee, we recommend that you run one
brew cycle through the Coffeemaker using cold water only, without ground coffee or a paper
filter. This will remove any dust that may have settled inside the Coffeemaker.
IMPORTANT:
Use only cold filtered or bottled water for best results.

FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR:

Open the hinged Water Reservoir Lid that is located on the top backside of the
Coffeemaker. Remove the Water Reservoir from the backside of the Coffeemaker and fill
the Reservoir with the desired amount of cold filtered or cold bottled water. Refer to the
water level markers on the sides of the Reservoir to let you know how much water is in the
container. Return the Water Reservoir to its position at the back of the Coffeemaker, making
sure the groove in the Water Reservoir slides snugly over the back of the plastic guide at
the back of the Coffeemaker. (See Figure D)
NOTE:
There is a drip hole in the back of the Water Reservoir to prevent exceeding the
capacity of the Coffeemaker. If you add too much water, it will leak out from the
back of the unit.

The amount of brewed coffee after the brewing process will always be slightly
less than the amount of water placed into the Coffeemaker, since some water
will be absorbed by the coffee grounds.
The Water Reservoir is removable for your convenience. To remove, open the
Water Reservoir Lid and lift straight up on the Reservoir until it is fully removed.
When replacing the Reservoir, make sure to line up the guides on the back of
the Reservoir with the guides on the back of the unit. After lining up the
guides, slide the Reservoir down into the unit. (See Figure D)
