WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE BOTTOM COVER. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REPAIRS SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL. CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE UNIT IN LIQUID. -3 BEFORE FIRST USE Place the box on a large, sturdy flat surface. Carefully unpack your coffee maker and remove all packaging material and literature. Remove any labels or stickers from the coffee maker. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, you may wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the coffee maker in water or other liquid. Clean the carafe, carafe lid, filter basket and filter in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. (See “Cleaning Your Coffee Maker” section of this manual for detailed instructions.) Keep all plastic bags away from children. NOTE: We recommend that prior to brewing your first pot of coffee, operate the coffee maker once or twice with water only, without ground coffee. This will remove any dust that may have settled inside the coffee maker, which may affect the flavor of the coffee. IMPORTANT: Use cold water only. The automatic drip system works best with cold water. KNOW YOUR COFFEE MAKER FIGURE 1 Water Reservoir Cover Filter Basket Carafe Lid Carafe On-Off Button Warming Plate -4 KNOW YOUR COFFEE MAKER (continued) FEATURES: 1. 2-HOUR AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF: For safety, this coffee maker is equipped with an auto shut-off feature. The coffee maker shuts off automatically 2 hours after the brewing cycle is completed. To restart the coffee maker, simply press the ON-OFF button and the ON-OFF light will illuminate. 2. PAUSE ‘N SERVE: Allows you to interrupt the brewing cycle and pour a cup of coffee before the entire carafe is finished brewing. To restart the brewing process, return the carafe to warming plate and coffee will automatically begin flowing through filter basket. Make sure carafe is placed all the way on the warming plate. CAUTION: Do not remove carafe for longer than 30 seconds or the filter basket will overflow. 3. SEALED CARAFE: Carafe lip and lid seal help to preserve coffee’s natural flavor and temperature by preventing excessive evaporation. 4. EASY POUR CARAFE: Uniquely designed carafe with all-around lip and traditional pour spout allow you to conveniently pour from any side. Cup markings on each side of the handle make it easier to measure the water level when filling the carafe. 5. NON-STICK WARMING PLATE: Makes cleanup quick and easy. 6. CORD STORAGE: Hidden cord storage allows you to hide excess cord for a neat appearance and for easy storage. 7. FILTER BASKET WITH HANDLE: Cone shaped filter basket enriches flavor and prevents bitter taste. A permanent, washable filter is included. -5 OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER PREPARING COFFEE MAKER FOR BREWING COFFEE: 1. Place the coffee maker on a flat, level surface away from any edge. 2. Plug the unit into a 120V / 60Hz only outlet. 3. The lid of the carafe must be fitted properly during the brewing process. And the carafe must be set on the warming plate. FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR: Figure 2 4. Open the hinged water reservoir cover located at the top of the coffee maker. 5. Fill the carafe with cold water corresponding to the desired cups of coffee you will be brewing. Cup markings are indicated on the handle of the carafe. 6. Empty the water from the carafe into the water reservoir, located behind the filter basket holder. NOTE: The automatic brewing system has been designed to work with cold water only. NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee after the brewing process is complete will always be slightly less than the amount of water placed in the coffee maker’s water reservoir, since some water is absorbed by the coffee grounds and filter. Add a little extra water at the beginning so that you have the exact number of cups desired. PREPARING THE COFFEE: 7. The included permanent filter may be used instead of a paper filter. If using paper filters, insert a #4 cone-shaped filter into the filter basket before filling with coffee grounds. Place the filter (permanent or paper) into the removable filter basket. Place the desired amount of coffee grounds into the filter. NOTE: We recommend using coffee grounds specifically for automatic drip coffee makers. We suggest one tablespoon of ground coffee for each cup of coffee being brewed. After using your drip coffee maker a few times you may adjust the amount to suit your own taste. 8. Return the filter basket with the coffee-filled filter to the filter basket holder. Be sure that the filter basket is seated properly in the filter basket holder. 9. Close the hinged water reservoir cover. Place the carafe with the lid in place on the warming plate. -6 FIGURE 2 OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER (continued) 10.
