• On model CM24TBISAS (tank model): Change
the water in the tank daily to prevent sickness
due to bacteria growth.

• When cleaning the mechanical parts of the
coffee system, exercise care with hands and
arms around the metal edges.

• Many metal surfaces on top of the coffee
system and inside the brewing compartment
become and remain hot when the power

switch is turned on. Exercise care around the
coffee system's metal surfaces even after

turning off the Dower switch.

• During normal operation, the person using the
coffee system may pull it out from the cabinet
to fill the coffee bins, etc. To prevent personal
injury, when pushing the coffee system back
into the cabinet, make sure body parts and
clothing are clear of the portion of the coffee
system behind the front panel.

• To avoid personal injury, make sure no one is
under the coffee system when sliding it in and

out of the cabinet.

To avoid steam coming out of the unit

unexpectedly, rotate the steam nozzle knob
fully counter-clockwise before turning on the
power switch.

• To prevent jamming of the grinding

specified in this manual.

• To prevent clogging of the internal parts, use
only filtered water as specified on the facing
page. Do not use distilled water.

Do not put any part of your coffee system
in a dishwasher. Many of the parts are not

dishwasher safe.

To avoid damage to the coffee system, do not

put pre-ground coffee into the coffee bean
container.

Before operating your coffee system for the first time:

.

Make sure you are using the right type of water.

Call your local water company. Ask them for the water hardness level of the water supplied to

the building where the coffee system will be installed.

If the water hardness level is above four grains per gallon (4gpg):

>> For CM24TBISAS (tank model), pour only filtered water with a hardness level of 4gpg or

less into the water tank. Do not use distilled water.

>> For CM24PBISAS (plumbed model), contact a water treatment specialist and have a water

treatment system installed to reduce the water hardness level to 4gpg or less.

IMPORTANT: Dacor _) does not recommend installation of a reverse osmosis filtration system. Reverse
osmosis systems can cause low water pressure. When the water pressure is low, the coffee water

volume (level) can fluctuate and the water pump may make a "hammering" sound.

2. Clean the system completely according to the Cleaning and Maintenance section
(including) System Cleaning, to remove bacteria that may have accumulated during
storage and shipping.

Clean your coffee system regularly according to the chart below:

WARNING

• To avoid sickness, clean the coffee system completely according
to the Cleaning and Maintenance section (including System
Cleaning) before operating it for the first time. Doing so will

remove any bacteria left in the unit during shipping and storage.

• Make sure the hardness of the water supplied to, or poured into
your coffee system does not exceed the maximum stated below.

Using water harder than that specified will eventually damage the
internal parts and void your warranty.

• DO NOT PUSH ANY BU-I-I-ONS OR TURN ANY KNOBS ON THE

Before Your Coffee System is Installed

1. Call your local water company. Ask them for the water hardness level of the

water supplied to the building where your coffee system will be installed.

2. If the water hardness level is above four grains per gallon (4gpg):

• If you are installing model CM24PBISAS, contact a water
treatment specialist and have a water treatment system installed to

reduce the water hardness level to 4gpg or less.

• If you are installing model CM24TBISAS, pour only filtered water with a

hardness level of 4gpg or less into the water tank. DO NOT use

distilled water.

3. Have a licensed electrician install a dedicated, grounded power receptacle
near the coffee system, if one is not available.

4. Have a qualified installer install the coffee system in the desired location
according to the accompanying installation instructions.

Semi-Automatic Coffee System

Things to Know Before You Start

WARNING

• To prevent personal injury, keep your hands out of the coffee
bean container.

Some of the metal surfaces behind the front panel are

hot when the power switch is on. Avoid contact with these

surfaces.

• Do not pour flavored, un-roasted, partial coffee beans or

ground coffee into the coffee bean container. Doing so may
cause the coffee grinding mechanism to jam. Use flavored
coffee creamers or syrups after making the coffee to flavor it.
You may also make flavored coffee using ground coffee pods

placed inside the dispenser filter instead of ground coffee.

• To avoid steam coming out of the unit unexpectedly, rotate

the steam nozzle knob fully counter-clockwise before turning
on the power switch.

For best results, the filter holder (drink dispensing assembly) must
be hot. Keep it attached to the dispensing collar when the coffee
system is heating up.

A small amount of dripping from the drink dispenser is normal after

drinks are dispensed.

This coffee system is designed to make one or two hot drink(s) at a
time.

For proper operation, clean your coffee system regularly according to

the cleaning schedule on page 22.
The coffee system purges water into the drip tray to ensure that the

water used for drink making is hot. Empty out the drip tray when it
starts to get full.

IMPORTANT

Drink volume and strength will vary due to coffee
type, coffee fineness, grind time, amount of
tamping and the drink volume setting. You may

need to experiment for best results. To adjust the

coffee fineness (grinder adjustment) see page 30.
To adjust the grind time see page 31.
