Sunbeam PC4700 Coffeemaker User Manual


 
Anti-drip valve
The anti-drip valve allows you to remove the
carafe and pour a cup of coffee during the
brewing cycle. The valve under the filter
prevents any coffee dripping when the carafe
is removed.
However if you are removing the carafe
during the brewing cycle it must be returned
within 20 seconds as the brewing cycle still
continues.
Thermostatically controlled non-stick warming
plate
Once the brewing cycle is completed the
warming plate will automatically heat to
maintain the coffee at the ideal serving
temperature as long as the coffee maker is
left on.
For optimum coffee flavour we recommend
that the coffee is consumed within 20
minutes. Extended standing time may result
in the coffee tasting bitter.
Permanent mesh filter
Your coffee maker comes with a permanent
mesh filter. This eliminates the need for
costly paper filters. The filter is removable for
easy cleaning.
If you are brewing continuous carafes of
coffee you will need to remove the permanent
mesh filter, rinse it in water, then add more
ground coffee. Caution must be taken when
removing the permanent mesh filter as the
plastic handle and the ground coffee remains
hot for a period of time after the brewing
cycle has completed.
Paper filters
Paper filters may be used with your coffee
maker. We recommend cone shaped paper
filters – standard #4 size. The paper filter
can either be placed directly into the
permanent mesh filter or straight into the
filter holder without the mesh filter.
