BEFORE FIRST USE
We recommend flushing out both the
Coffeemaker and Hot Water System before
first use.
Coffeemaker: Fill the reservoir with cold
water and follow the directions for Brewing
Coffee.
DO NOT ADD COFFEE!
Hot Water System: Fill the reservoir to the
Max fill line and follow directions for Using
the Hot Water System.
Once the system flush is complete, your
Coffee PLUS
® system is ready to brew and
heat water so you can enjoy Cuisinart at
its best!
CHARCOAL WATER FILTER
Your Coffeemaker comes with two charcoal
water filters that eliminates chlorine, bad tastes
and odors from tap water.
Inserting the Water Filter
• Remove the filters from the polybag and
soak them, fully immersed, in cold tap water
for 15 minutes.
• Lift the water filter holder out of the water
reservoirs from both the Coffeemaker side and
Hot Water System side (see diagram, page 5).
• Press down on the filter compartment and pull
toward you to open.
• Place filter into the holder and snap
it closed. Be careful – improper placement can
tear the filter skin.
• Flush filter by running cold tap water through
holes in bottom of compartment for 10
seconds.
• Allow the filter to drain completely.
• Slide the water filter holder back into the
channel in the water reservoir, pushing it
down to the base of the unit.
NOTE: We recommend changing the water filter
every 60 days or after 60 uses, and more
often if you have hard water.
Replacement filters can be purchased
in stores, by calling Cuisinart
Customer Service, or at www.
cuisinart.com.
