For your convenience, our Pause ‘n Serve feature allows you up to 30 SECONDS to sneak a cup
while the coffee is still brewing. It also prevents any remaining coffee in the filter basket from
dripping onto the warming plate once the brew cycle is completed.

turn the unit OFF and then to ON. When your decanter is empty, turn your coffeemaker off

After the coffee is brewed, you can keep it at just the right temperature. Use the Warmer

Your coffeemaker must be cleaned when you begin to notice excessive steaming or the brewing
time increases considerably. This condition is caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits
from your water. If the pumping action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the
machine, then the appliance requires cleaning. The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness
of water used. The following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
