IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to
persons, including the following:

❑ Read all instructions.
❑ Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle or knobs.
❑ To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons, do not

immerse cord, plug or appliance in water or other liquids.

❑ Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near

children.

❑ Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool

before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.

❑ Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the

appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return
the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination,
repair, or adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number on the
cover of this manual.

❑ The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance

manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.

❑ Do not use outdoors.
❑ Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch hot

surfaces.

❑ Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
❑ Keep the lid on the carafe when in use.
❑ The carafe is designed for use with the appliance. It must never be used

on a range top.

❑ Do not set a hot carafe down on a wet or cold surface.
❑ Do not use the carafe if the glass is cracked or has a loose or weakened

handle.

❑ Do not clean the carafe with abrasive cleansers, steel wool, or other

abrasive material.

❑ Do not use this appliance for anything other than intended use.
❑ Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing cycles.
❑ To disconnect, turn any control to "off," then remove plug from

wall outlet.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning : This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent
removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt
to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should

be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided

to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord.

b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available

and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified
personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.

How to Use

This appliance is intended for household use only.

GETTING STARTED

1. Remove all stickers, packing material, and literature.

2. Wash all parts as instructed in the Care and Cleaning section.

3. Pour cold water up to 11-cup level mark in the water reservoir. Brew it through as
instructed in "BREWING", but do not add coffee grounds to the paper filter. When done,
turn off the coffeemaker and discard the water from the carafe.

BREWING

1. Lift the one-piece cover. Use the carafe to fill water reservoir with cold water.

2. Place a paper filter into the brew basket. Add ground coffee, (we recommend one or two

heaping tablespoons for every 2 cups). Close the cover.

3. Place carafe on the "Keep Hot" plate and plug in the unit.

4. Press "ON/OFF" button and the indicator light comes on, or for delayed brewing,

see "SETTING THE CLOCK/TIMER & AUTO-BREW." You do not have to set the clock
if you want to brew coffee right away.

5. Replace the carafe on the “Keep Hot” plate when not serving to keep coffee hot.

The coffeemaker will keep coffee warm for 2 hours before it automatically shuts off.

Sneak-A-Cup® Interrupt Feature

You can pour a cup of coffee while coffee is brewing without leaking from the brew basket.
When finished pouring coffee, place the carafe under brew basket. The brewing process
continues.

Important: To avoid possible overflow after removing the carafe, be sure to replace the
carafe under the brew basket within one minute or less.

Setting the Clock/Timer & Auto-Brew

Plug in unit, clock flashes 12:00 a.m. until correct time is set. The coffeemaker works
without settingthe clock.

1.

To set current time of day: Press the HOUR button. Press the MINUTES button.
Once set, clock continues to keep time unless coffeemaker is unplugged or a power
failure occurs.

2.

To set the Auto On time: Press the PROGRAM button and the light near the AUTO
ON

button will start flashing indicating it is being programmed. Press the HOUR, then
MINUTES buttons to set the time you would like coffee to automatically begin brewing
(for example 7:15 a.m.). Press the HOUR and MINUTES buttons to 7:15 a.m. Make sure
the PM indicator light is not lit. When finished, press the AUTO ON button. The AUTO
ON

light will stop flashing and will stay on to show the timer is activated.

3. Prepare the coffeemaker for brewing as instructed in BREWING but don’t turn
the unit on.

4. To check your pre-set auto time, press PROGRAM and it will display. When the
clock returns to the current time of day, press AUTO ON to reactivate the timer.
To automatically brew coffee again at the same pre-set auto-on time, prepare your
coffeemaker for brewing again and press the AUTO ON button.

Note: The AUTO ON function can be canceled at any time by pressing the AUTO ON
button a second time. The AUTO ON light will go out.

Care and Cleaning

CLEANING

1. To clean your coffeemaker, be sure the unit is off and cooled. Open the cover, remove
the brew basket, and discard the paper filter/ grounds. Clean as follows: brew basket,
carafe and carafe lid are all top rack dishwasher-safe; or they may be hand washed in
warm, sudsy water. See below for carafe care. The coffeemaker’s exterior, control panel
area and “Keep Hot” plate may be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleansers or scouring pads. Never immerse the coffeemaker in water.

2. To clean inside of reservoir cover, open the one-piece cover
allowing it to rest in the open position. Pull showerhead, clean
showerhead with a damp cloth, then place water spreader under
guide and close the cover (A).

Caring For Your Carafe

A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from a hot liquid. To avoid breaking:

• Do not allow all liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the “Keep Hot” plate or
heat the carafe when empty.

• Discard the carafe if chipped, cracked, or damaged in any manner.

• Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers, they will scratch and weaken the glass.

• Do not place the carafe on or near a gas or electric burner, in a heated oven, or in a
microwave oven.

• Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.

Mineral Deposits and Clogging

Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your coffeemaker. Cleaning is recommended
every 3 months.

1. Pour white vinegar into the water reservoir up to the 6-cup level on the water window.

Add cold water up to the 10-cup line.

2. Put a paper filter in the brew basket and close the cover. Set the empty carafe on the

“Keep Hot” plate.

3. Turn on the coffeemaker and let half the cleaning solution brew into the carafe

(till water level goes down to around “5”). Turn off the coffeemaker and let it soak
for at least 15 minutes to soften the deposits.

4. Turn on the coffeemaker and brew the remaining cleaning solution into the carafe.

5. Turn off the coffeemaker; empty the carafe and discard the soiled filter.

6. Fill the reservoir with cold water to the 11-cup line, replace the empty carafe, then turn

on the coffeemaker for a complete brew cycle to flush out the remaining cleaning
solution. You may have to repeat this to eliminate the vinegar smell/taste.

7. Wash the brew basket and carafe as instructed in “Cleaning.”
