OPERATING YOUR COFFEE MAKER (continued)
Using the Automatic Brew Function:
8.
If you wish to use the Automatic Brew function, first follow all of the
directions under the “Program Automatic Brew” section of this
manual. Then follow all of the directions under “Operating Your
Coffee Maker” up until #6 in the “Preparing the Coffee” section of
this manual.
9. In a few minutes the coffee maker will complete the brewing cycle
and automatically shut off. The digital display will illuminate and then
automatically switch off after 10 minutes. NOTE: To terminate the
brewing process at any time, press the ON/OFF button. The digital
display will illuminate for one minute and then turn off automatically.
10. NOTE: If you would like a cup of coffee before the full pot is brewed,
the Pause ‘N Serve feature allows you to interrupt the brewing
process. The brewing process does not stop during this period; only
the flow of coffee from the basket. Do not remove the carafe for
longer than 30 seconds or the coffee may overflow from the basket
stops. While we offer this feature, we do not recommend you pour
the coffee before the cycle has reached completion, since the
coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a flavor which is
very different from the flavor at the end of the cycle. Removing a
cup during the brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the finished pot.
11. To pour coffee after brewing is complete, unscrew the lid 180
degrees so that the notch on the lid is in line with the pouring spout.
Once the desired amount of coffee has been poured, screw the lid
back on to retain the coffee temperature. The thermal carafe will
keep coffee hot after brewing is complete.
12. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit OFF when the carafe is
empty or when the coffee maker is not in use. After brewing cycle is
complete, discard the grounds and rinse the permanent filter and
filter basket thoroughly with water. (See “Cleaning Your Coffee
Maker” section of this manual for more details).
13. NOTE: If you have used the coffee maker in awhile, run one cycle
with water only (without coffee) to clean it out. Fill the water tank to
the top cup when you perform this procedure. CAUTION: Never put
the carafe in the microwave.
