CARING FOR YOUR
CARAFE
To clean your Coffeemaker after brewing cof-
fee, be sure the unit is OFF and has cooled.
Discard the paper filter and grounds, and
clean as follows:
Filter Basket, Water Spreader, Carafe, and
Carafe Serving Lid are all top rack dishwash-
er-safe; or, they may be hand washed in hot,
sudsy water.
NOTE: Since the white Filter Basket and
Water Spreader are prone to staining, you
may want to wash them well with soap and
water after each use.
The Coffeemaker’s exterior and “Keeps Hot”
plate may be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do
not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
Never immerse the Coffeemaker in water.
The Carafe capacity for the DCM12WH and
DCM12WL is 12 cups; for the DCM94WH, it is
10 cups (Figure C). A damaged Carafe may
result in possible burns from hot liquid. To
avoid breaking the Carafe:
• Do not let all liquid evaporate from the
Carafe while on the “Keeps Hot”
plate, or heat the Carafe when empty.
• Discard the Carafe if damaged in any
manner. A chip or crack could result
in breakage.
• Never use abrasive scouring pads or
cleansers, they will scratch the glass.
• Do not place the Carafe on or near a
hot gas or electric burner, in a heated
oven, or in a microwave oven.
• Avoid rough handling and sharp
blows.
