soapy water. Rinse and dry. The filter basket holder is not a

cleaned with a clean, damp cloth.
Optional Features
Pause ’N Serve
This feature allows you to pour a cup of coffee before the
entire brew cycle has completed. By removing the carafe, the
flow of coffee from the bottom of the filter basket will stop.

The flow of coffee will resume when carafe is returned to the
Keep-Hot Plate.

lower left corner to indicate that the coffeemaker is ready
to begin automatic brewing.
4. The coffeemaker will shut off two hours after brewing
begins.
