How to Use
This appliance is intended for household use only.
GETTING STARTED
1. Remove all stickers, packing material, and literature.
Important: For warranty verification, please do not remove line cord sticker.
2. Wash all parts as instructed in the Care and Cleaning section.
3. Pour cold water up to 11-cup level mark in the water reservoir. Brew it through as
instructed in "BREWING", but do not add coffee grounds to the paper filter. When done,
turn off the coffeemaker and discard the water from the carafe.
BREWING
1. Lift the one-piece cover. Use the carafe to fill water reservoir with cold water.
2. Place a paper filter or the permanent gold-tone filter into the brew basket. Add ground
coffee, (we recommend one heaping tablespoon for every 2 cups). Close the cover.
3. Place carafe on the "Keep Hot" plate and plug in the unit.
4. Press "ON" or "ON/OFF" (depending on your model) and the indicator light comes on, or,
for delayed brewing (Clock Models), see "SETTING THE CLOCK/TIMER & AUTO-BREW."
You don’t have to set the clock if you want to brew coffee right away.
5. In the DCM2700 series, when brewing is done, you will hear a series of beeps.
6. Replace the carafe on the “Keep Hot” plate when not serving to keep coffee hot.
7. Press “OFF” or “ON/OFF” (depending on your model) to turn the unit off.
In the DCM2500 series, the coffeemaker will keep coffee warm for 2 hours before it
automatically shuts off.
8. In the DCM2700 series, you may adjust your auto-off time by pressing the auto off button
and holding it to select 1 hr., 2 hr., 3 hr. or 4 hr. for auto-off time. You will hear a long
beep just before the unit automatically shuts off. If you do not select a time, the unit will
automatically shut off in 2 hours.

Interrupt Feature
You can pour a cup of coffee while coffee is brewing without leaking from the brew basket.
When finished pouring coffee, place the carafe under brew basket. The brewing process
continues.
Important: To avoid possible overflow after removing the carafe, be sure to replace the carafe
under the brew basket within one minute or less.
1. To set current time of day: Press the HOUR button, little dot in the top left corner of the
display indicates "p.m." time. Press the MIN button. Once set, clock continues to keep
time unless coffeemaker is unplugged or a power failure occurs.
2. To set the Auto On time: Press the PROGRAM button and the light near the AUTO ON
button will start flashing indicating it is being programmed. Press the Hour, then Min
buttons to set the time you’d like coffee to automatically begin brewing (for example
7:15 a.m.). Press the HOUR and MIN buttons to 7:15 a.m. Make sure the PM indicator
light is not lit. When finished, press the AUTO ON button. The AUTO ON light will stop
flashing and will stay on to show the timer is activated.
3. Prepare the coffeemaker for brewing as instructed in BREWING but don’t turn the unit on.
4. To check your pre-set auto time, press program and it will display. When the clock returns
to the current time of day, press AUTO ON to reactivate the timer. To automatically brew
coffee again at the same pre-set auto-on time, prepare your coffeemaker for brewing again
and press the AUTO ON button.
Note: The AUTO ON function can be canceled at any time by pressing the AUTO ON
button a second time. The AUTO ON light will go out.
