Fully Automatic Burr Grind & Brew™ Thermal Coffeemaker
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Cuisinart® Fully Automatic Burr Grind & Brew™ Thermal Coffeemaker for the
first time:
ONTO BASE. During the manufacturing process, dust can get trapped in your coffeemaker. We recommend
flushing out the system before brewing your first pot of coffee. Simply follow “Making Coffee with PreGround Beans,” page 10 in the Instruction Booklet. Skip step #1 and be sure to use only water and a paper
filter…no coffee! Once you’ve done that, brew a pot of real coffee and get ready to enjoy Cuisinart at its best!
BE SURE TO REMOVE POLYBAGS FROM CARAFE AND COFFEEMAKER. PLACE CARAFE BACK
Quick Reference SETUP Guide
Fully immerse the charcoal water filter in cold tap
water and soak for 15 minutes. Flush filter by running
cold tap water through holes in bottom of compartment
for 10 seconds (see complete instructions on page 8 of
your instruction booklet). Insert the filter into the water
filter holder. Open the water reservoir and place filter
holder into the unit.
Open the filter basket door by pressing the
Release button, and insert a paper filter or

Helpful Hint: “Pre-heat” your carafe by
rinsing it out with hot water before brewing.
Remove hopper lid, fill with beans,
and replace the lid.
