Before Using Your Coffeemaker
WARNING: To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do not immerse
Cord, Plug or appliance in water or any other liquid.
1. Remove all packing material from the inside and outside of the
Coffeemaker.
2. Before preparing coffee in your new Coffeemaker, thoroughly
clean the Glass Carafe, Carafe Lid and Removable Filter Bas-
ket in hot, sudsy water. Rinse and dry.
3. Replace disassembled parts.
4. Clean the inside of the Coffeemaker by brewing two full carafes
of tap water (see “Brewing Coffee Instructions” below). Do not
use coffee for this initial cleaning.
Note: at the end of first cycle,
turn Coffeemaker off and wait ten minutes. Turn unit on and
brew second carafe of fresh water.
Coffee Filters
Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores
and where Coffeemakers are sold. Standard #4 filters should be
used.
The use of basket-style paper filters is not recommended, since
they do not conform to the shape of the Filter Basket and may
cause coffee to back up and spill over during brewing.
Brewing Coffee Instructions
1. Be sure Power Select Button is in the “OFF” position. (Power
Light is not illuminated.)
2. Plug Coffeemaker into any 120 Volt, AC electrical outlet.
3. Fill Glass Carafe with cold tap water to the correct line indicat-
ing the desired number of cups. Markings on the Glass Carafe
indicate level of water required to brew desired number of cups.
No less than two cups is recommended.
4. Lift the Water Reservoir Cover and carefully pour into Water
Chamber. Close Cover.
Note: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the
amount of water placed into Coffeemaker, since about 10% is
absorbed by coffee grounds and filter.
