Water Filtration System
Congratulations! You are the owner of a MR. COFFEE®
water filtration system. Using the MR. COFFEE® carbon-
based water filter in the MR. COFFEE® Smart Coffeemaker
during the brewing process helps remove up to 97%
of the chlorine from the water and improves the taste
of your coffee.
To use the water filtration system in your MR. COFFEE®
Smart Coffeemaker, please follow these steps:
Align the red indicator on the frame to the letter that
corresponds with the month that you are using the disk for the
first time. This serves to remind you to change
the disk every month (approx. 30 brewing cycles). To
change the disk, remove the used disk, insert new disk
into the frame.
NOTE:
For optimum results, use the water filtration system
with a permanent filter.
Rinse the water filter in fresh water before first use.
Follow Adding Water and Ground Coffee instructions.

PREPARING MR. COFFEE® SMART COFFEEMAKER FOR USE
When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse the water filter with fresh water.
DO NOT put your water filter in the dishwasher.
To replace the water filter disks, twist the gray disk cover from your water filtration
system. Remove the used disk. Insert the new disk into the frame and twist the
cover back into place.
Adding Water and Ground Coffee
Open the brew basket drawer (Figure 4).
Place a MR. COFFEE® brand 10–12 cup paper basket-style
filter or a MR. COFFEE® permanent filter into the removable
filter basket.
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the sides of
the filter fit flush against the side of the filter basket.
If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter before
placing in the filter basket and adding ground
coffee and water.
Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake to level
the coffee. See the Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart
(Page 9).
Slide the brew basket back into place (Figure 6).
Fill the removable water reservoir with cold, fresh water
to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces) For easy
and accurate filling, the water markings on the removable
water reservoir shows the amount of water needed to make
the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill
past the “10 cup MAX line” or water will flow out of the
Smart Coffeemaker.
NOTE: The amount of coffee brewed will always be
slightly less than the amount of water poured in
the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum
absorption of water by the coffee grounds.
