Brewing
■Ensure the brew basket insert and drip stop lever in the bottom of the insert are clean and that the brew basket insert is in the brew basket.
■Use either the mesh basket filter (included) or a No. 4 paper filter (not included) and place into the brew basket insert.
■Ensure the carafe (included) is clean, empty, and the lid is locked. Make sure the carafe is in place before brewing. This coffee maker will NOT brew without the carafe in place. The top of the carafe MUST be engaged with the drip stop lever on the bottom of the brew basket. If not, the water won’t flow into the carafe and the basket may overflow during the brewing cycle. If the carafe is not in place when the brewing cycle is selected, the display will show “Err” and the coffee maker will chime.
■Water: This coffee maker is designed to use only the amount of water for the number of cups selected to be brewed. Fill the water reservoir with fresh, clean, and odorless (free of chlorine and sulfur) water up to the MAX level indicator. DO NOT overfill the water reservoir. Water should have some minerals for best flavor. Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems or distilled water does not have minerals and is not recommended for coffee brewing.
If there is no water in the reservoir at the start of brewing, an error message (Add H2O) will show on the display telling you to add water and a chime will sound.
Push the knob to confirm that you are adding water. Once the water is added, push the knob again to continue brewing. DO NOT add water during brewing unless the error message is displayed.
■Coffee: The type of coffee and freshness is a large factor in the flavor, taste and aroma of brewed coffee. The grind size of the coffee is for brewing using the drip method.
■Use the scoop (included) to measure the correct amount of coffee for the number of cups you are brewing. The measuring scoop is designed for one level scoop of coffee per 4.5 oz serving of coffee being brewed (4.5 oz of water per serving is the common measurement for a regular cup of coffee).
Place the coffee into the filter in the brew basket.
TO BREW:
■After setup of strength and temperature, push the Brew/Select knob. The number of cups will illuminate on the display along with the last strength that was chosen.
Rotate the Brew/Select knob to choose the number of cups of coffee you want to brew. Push the Brew/Select knob to confirm. Brewing will start.

AUTO BREW:
Auto Brew will let you start brewing automatically at a preset time.
■Push the Auto Brew button for 3 seconds to program. Rotate Brew/ Select knob to select AM/PM and push to confirm. Then push the
Auto Brew button to reconfirm AM/
PM. Set the hour and minutes in the same manner pressing Auto Brew after each. Next, set the number of cups by turning the Brew/Select knob and push to confirm. Set
the strength and temperature in the same manner. Once all of the selections have been made, the Brew/Select knob illuminates. Push
Auto Brew to confirm your choices.
Auto On will illuminate to indicate that Auto Brew is active.
NOTE: If Gold strength is selected, you will not be able to select a temperature. The Gold setting is a pre-set program that includes a select temperature. Do not use for high elevations (over 5000 feet).

Care and Cleaning
CAUTION Always unplug your coffee maker before cleaning.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE COFFEE MAKER
Clean the outside of the coffee maker with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use paper towels or abrasive cloths and cleaners as they may scratch the finish.
CLEANING THE BREW BASKET AND MESH BASKET FILTER
Remove the mesh basket filter and brew basket. Discard any ground coffee. After each brew, rinse the mesh basket filter and brew basket under running water. For a deeper clean, wash in warm soapy water with a soft bristled brush. These parts are NOT dishwasher safe.
CLEANING THE CARAFE
After each use, empty the carafe. Rinse the carafe and lid under warm running water. Letting coffee stand overnight in the carafe can lead to staining. For a deeper clean, wash regularly in warm, soapy water and a soft bristled brush. Do not use abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the finish. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The carafe and lid are NOT dishwasher safe
DESCALING
Hard water can cause mineral build-up on internal components. This can cause a change in taste of the coffee, brewing temperature and brewing flow. The coffee maker needs to be descaled regularly.
When Descale is flashing under the time display, it means |

To descale, use a mixture of half water/half vinegar. Fill the reservoir to the MAX indicator. Run the coffee maker through a brewing cycle using the 10 cup setting. Once the mixture is gone, run the 10 cup brew setting 3 times using clear water in the reservoir.
NOTE: When descaling, if carafe is removed, heater and pump is shut off and displays “Err” error code, after 2 minutes the screen will return to idle clock state. To fix error place the carafe back in place.
