HIGH-ALTITUDE CALIBRATION BREW

Required for users in high-altitude areas. Not running the high-altitude calibration brew in a high-
altitude area will result in excessive steaming during brewing.
Because water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitudes, running a calibration cycle before
your first brew allows the coffee maker to detect the boiling point of water at your location. Running
a calibration cycle will help deliver a consistent brew each time.
1 Fill the water reservoir up to, but not exceeding, the MAX line.
2 Insert the brew basket and close the coffee maker lid, then place a 24 oz. cup or travel mug
underneath the nozzle.
3 Power on the unit and press and hold the BREW and CLEAN buttons until you hear a
confirmation sound.
4 A calibration cycle will begin, and the progress bar will advance until the altitude calibration is
complete. The coffee maker will beep when completed. Discard the water in the 24 oz. cup or
travel mug.
NOTE: This calibration is permanently saved and will not be reset if power is lost or unit is
unplugged. The coffee maker can be recalibrated at any time.
USING THE NINJA POD ADAPTER AND
PERMANENT FILTER
The coffee maker comes with the unique Ninja Pod Adapter already installed in the brew basket, and
the Permanent Filter located in the Adapter Storage Bin on the bottom right side of the coffee maker.
Always ensure the Ninja Pod Adapter or Permanent Filter is installed over the brew basket.
INSTALLING THE NINJA
POD ADAPTER
Place the Ninja Pod Adapter
in the brew basket, ensure
the handle is aligned with
the brew basket handle, and
press down on the Ninja Pod
Adapter firmly until it clicks
into place.
