BEFORE USING YOUR COFFEEMAKER
Before preparing coffee in your new coffeemaker, thoroughly clean the
carafe, carafe lid, removable filter basket, and water chamber cover in hot,
sudsy water. Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts. Clean the inside
of the coffeemaker by brewing two full carafes of tap water (see “BREWING
INSTRUCTIONS”). Do not place coffee in filter basket for this initial clean-
ing. Note: At the end of first cycle, turn coffeemaker “OFF” and wait ten min-
utes. Turn unit “ON” and brew second carafe of water.
SPECIAL CARE FOR YOUR CARAFE
A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from hot liquid. To avoid
breaking the carafe:
• Do not allow all liquid to evaporate from carafe. Do not heat carafe when
empty.
• Discard if damaged in any manner. A chip or crack could result in break-
age or contaminate liquid contents with glass particles. To order new
carafe contact Consumer Service.
• Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners as they may scratch and
weaken the glass.
• Do not place carafe on or near a hot gas or electric burner, in a heated
oven, or in a microwave oven.
• Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.
COFFEE FILTERS
Number 2 cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores
and where coffeemakers are sold. The use of basket-style filters is not rec-
ommended, since they do not conform to the shape of the filter basket and
may cause coffee to back up and spill over during brewing.
COFFEE YIELD
Note: A 5-ounce cup is the American industry standard and is used by most
coffeemaker manufacturers. To fill up your favorite mug, fill coffeemaker
water chamber with enough water for 2 cups (10 ounces).
BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug coffeemaker into any 120V ~ 60Hz outlet.
2. Fill carafe with cold tap water and pour into water chamber. Markings
on the carafe indicate level of water required to brew desired number
of cups or use the markings on the water level indicator. Not less than
two cups is recommended when using 5-cup and 10-cup units.
Note: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the
amount of water placed into coffeemaker, since 10% is absorbed by
coffee grounds and filter.
3. Place coffee filter in filter basket. Use a #2 paper cone filter. Measure

one level teaspoon of drip or regular grind coffee for each cup of cof-
fee desired. For stronger or milder coffee, adjust amount of coffee to
suit your taste.
4. Return filter basket to closed position.
5. Place carafe on warming plate.
6. Switch control to “ON.”
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is completed,
simply remove carafe from warming plate. Dripping will automatically
cease. Return carafe to position on warming plate within 45 seconds;
dripping will resume.
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait about one minute until the
brew drip from the filter basket into the carafe has stopped. Carafe lid
should be kept in place to facilitate safe serving and help keep coffee
at proper serving temperature.
9. To keep coffee hot, return carafe to the warming plate after serving.
The warming plate will automatically cycle to maintain ideal serving
temperature as long as the coffeemaker is on.
10. Switch to “OFF” when carafe is empty or when unit is not in use.
11. To brew another carafe of coffee, turn unit “OFF” and wait 10 minutes
to allow heating element to cool. Important: If unit is not allowed to
cool before immediate repeated use, water placed in water chamber
may become overheated and a spray of steam could be released from
opening, creating a risk of burns.
BREWING A SECOND POT OF COFFEE
As mentioned above, it is recommended that the coffeemaker should be in
“OFF” position for 10 minutes between cycles, in order to allow unit to cool.
While unit is in “OFF” position, dispose of used coffee filter, and rinse carafe
and filter basket in water. Place a fresh filter in basket. Repeat brewing pro-
cedure.
HINTS FOR GREAT TASTING COFFEE
• A clean coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular
cleaning, as specified in “CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR COF-
FEEMAKER” is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your coffeemaker.
• Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller extraction and
provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grind will require slightly more cof-
fee 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 flavor, buy whole beans and grind them just before brewing.
• Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor imme-
diately after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed coffee is due to the extraction
of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heav-
ily roasted coffees are used.Over-extraction may also cause oiliness, indi-
cating a need to clean your coffeemaker.

CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR COFFEEMAKER
Always make sure coffeemaker is unplugged and warming plate is cool
before attempting to clean.After daily use, the filter basket and carafe should
be washed in hot, sudsy water, rinsed and dried.Wipe exterior with a damp
cloth to remove superficial stains. For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plas-
tic pad with a non-abrasive cleanser. Do not use metal scouring pads or
abrasive cleansers.
Special cleaning of your coffeemaker is recommended at least once a
month, depending on frequency of use and quality of water used in the unit.
If water in your area is especially hard, the following cleaning procedure
should be performed every two weeks, since minerals in water can detract
from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen brew time.
1. Fill carafe with one part white vinegar to three parts cold water. Pour
water and vinegar solution into the water chamber.
2. Place a paper filter in the filter basket and swing to closed position.
Place carafe on warming plate. Plug into a 120V ~ 60Hz outlet and
switch control to “ON.” During cleaning, more steam will occur than
during normal brewing.
3. Keep the coffeemaker on until carafe is half full. Switch control to
“OFF.” When liquid stops dripping from filter basket into the carafe,
remove the basket and carafe and allow liquid to cool in the carafe for
15 minutes. When cooled, pour liquid back into the water chamber.
4. Replace basket and return carafe to warming plate.
5. Switch control to “ON.” Repeat procedure, allowing all the cleaning
solution to empty into the carafe. After dripping has stopped, discard
contents of carafe.
6. After allowing coffeemaker to cool for 10 minutes, rinse it out by brew-
ing a carafe full of cold water. Make sure to insert a fresh filter into the
filter basket before brewing.
7. At end of the brew cycle, switch control to “OFF.” Discard water in the
carafe. Remove used filter and wash carafe and filter basket in hot
sudsy water. Dry parts.
8. When coffeemaker has cooled, wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning
must be performed by an authorized service center.
