PREPARING THE COFFEE:
12. NOTE: If you wish to use the AROMA function, press the AROMA button
immediately after ON-OFF light is illuminated. When the AROMA function is
activated, the indicator will illuminate.
13. NOTE: If you would like a cup of coffee before the full pot is brewed, the
Pause ‘N Serve feature allows you to interrupt the brewing process. The
brewing process does not stop during this period; only the flow of coffee from
the basket. Do not remove the carafe for longer than 30 seconds or the coffee
may overflow from the basket stops. While we offer this feature, we do not
recommend you pour coffee before the cycle has reached completion, since
the coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a flavor which is very
different from the flavor at the end of the cycle. Removing a cup during the
brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the finished pot.
14. Coffee is ready when “bubbling” sound and dripping have completely stopped.
After the brew cycle is completed, the unit will automatically shut itself off.
15. The thermal carafe will keep coffee hot after brewing is complete.
16. Press the ON-OFF / TIMER button (DC55TC Series) or the ON-OFF button
(DC54TC Series) to turn the unit “off” when the carafe is empty or when the
coffee maker is not in use. After the brewing cycle is complete, remove the
filter basket and discard the grounds and rinse the permanent filter (See
“Cleaning Your Coffee Maker” section of this manual for more details). If a
paper filter was used, be sure to discard the paper filter immediately after use.
Use caution when removing the filter basket or paper filter, contents
may be hot. Always unplug the coffee maker from the electrical outlet after
every use.
17. NOTE: Never operate your coffee maker without the carafe lid in place on the
carafe, doing so will cause your coffee maker to overflow.
