HOW TO USE
BREWING COFFEE
1. Lift the one-piece Cover and use the Carafe to fill the Water Reservoir with
cold water to your desired level (watch for the level in the Water Windows).
2. Place a paper filter into the Brew Basket, add coffee to the desired level
(about one heaping tablespoon for every 2 cups—adjust to your taste)
and close the Cover.
3. Sit the Carafe with its Lid on the “Keeps Hot” plate and plug the unit in.
4. Press “On/Off” and the light under it will come on. Or for delayed
brewing, see “Setting the Clock Timer.” You don’t have to set the clock
if you want to brew coffee right away.
IMPORTANT: WASH CARAFE BEFORE FIRST USE!
1. Before first use, remove all stickers, packing material, and literature.
2. Wash the Carafe, Filter Basket, and Lid in hot, sudsy water—rinse
thoroughly—or in a dishwasher, top rack.
3. Pour cold water up to the 8-cup level mark into the Water Reservoir
and brew it through as instructed in BREWING COFFEE, but do not add
coffee grounds. When done, turn the Coffeemaker off and discard the
water from the Carafe.
