INSTALLING ThE WATER FILTER hOLDER AND cARBON FILTER
The supplied filter reduces many of the contaminants that
can negatively affect the flavor of the coffee. Although
the Coffee Maker will function normally without it, use of
the filter is highly recommended.
1 The filter assembly consists of a Water Filter Holder,
and an active carbon filter cartridge. Prior to inserting
the cartridge into the holder, place the carbon filter
cartridge into a container of clean cool water, and let
soak. After 10 minutes, remove the cartridge from the
container and thoroughly rinse under running tap water
for 10 to 15 seconds. This will remove any carbon
dust particles that could make their way into your first
brew. This step is only necessary for new carbon filters.
Repeat this procedure each time you replace the filter.
It is recommended that the carbon filter be replaced
after each 60 brew cycles. A reminder on the LCD panel
will alert you once you have reached the 60th brew
cycle. To clear the reminder, simply press and hold the
Set button until the alert disappears.
2 To install the filter, place the carbon cartridge into the
Water Filter Holder cage, and snap the cage closed,
locking the cartridge into the holder.
3 Lower the Water Filter Holder, filter end first, down into
the bottom of the water reservoir and insert the holder
into the pocket located at the bottom of the reservoir.
4 Plug the Coffee Maker into a grounded outlet. You
should hear a short alert tone. Fill the reservoir with
clean, cool water. Do not exceed 12 cups of water, as
the overflow slots in the back of the reservoir will cause
6
the excess water to run out the back of the unit and on
to the counter top.
If you are using a container other than the carafe to
fill the reservoir, use the water level indicator window
on the right side of the Coffee Maker to measure the
desired amount of water.
5 Place the Filter Basket into position and lower the
Permanent Gold-Tone filter into the basket - Do not
add coffee at this time! Place the empty carafe onto
the warming plate and press the On-Off button once
to start the brewing process. Allow the Coffee Maker
to cycle with water-only for the first use. The unit will
sound three alert tones once the brewing process has
completed. Discard the water from the break-in cycle.
NOTE
Repeat these steps each time you replace the carbon
filter element.
