HELPFUL HINTS FOR BREWING
• The markings on the water level indicator reflect the quantity of fresh water.
The quantity of brewed coffee is less because the coffee grounds absorb
water.
• Never use hot or carbonated water. This will damage the appliance.
• Never pour milk, liquid coffee, tea, etc. into the water chamber.
• Adjust amount of ground coffee to taste.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. After brewing process, press the OFF button; the red light will turn off.
2. Unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
3. Open lid and use handle to lift out removable filter liner. Discard coffee
grounds and paper filter. Wash removable filter liner, carafe and lid in
warm sudsy water, rinse and dry. Replace liner by fitting notch and
handle in groove of filter basket.
4. Clean the outside of the coffeemaker with a damp cloth.
CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR COFFEEMAKER UNIT IN
WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
The life of your coffeemaker will be extended if you replace the charcoal
filter as recommended, after 6 weeks or 60 uses. Do not attempt to clean the
water filter. Remove a new charcoal filter from the plastic bag and rinse
thoroughly under running water before placing into water chamber.
DESCALING
We recommend you deep clean your coffeemaker once a month because
mineral deposits from tap water can form a coating in the coffeemaker,
causing slower brewing time and possibly an off flavor in the coffee.
To deep clean your coffeemaker:
1. Remove charcoal filtration system.
2. Pour 1/2 cup vinegar and about 4 cups of cold water into the carafe; pour
into coffeemaker.
3. Place a clean paper filter in the filter basket and close.
4. Follow “BREWING” instructions, (without coffee).
5. When the coffeemaker has finished dripping, turn coffeemaker off.
Carefully remove the carafe and place on a heat resistant surface. Wait
15 minutes and pour solution back into coffeemaker. Be sure that basket
is still in proper position.
6. Return carafe to warming plate.
7. Turn unit on again. Allow all solution to empty into carafe; turn unit off.
After dripping stops, discard solution.
8. Allow coffeemaker to cool 10 minutes. Rinse it out by replacing charcoal
filtration system and brewing a carafe full of cold water, (without coffee).
Make sure to insert a fresh paper filter before brewing.
9. At end of cycle, turn unit off, discard water and paper filter. Wash and dry
all removable parts, (except charcoal filter).
10. When coffeemaker has cooled, wipe exterior with a damp cloth.
Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above
cleaning must be performed by an authorized service center.
