Preparing Your Coffee Maker for Use
Pre-Use Cleaning
Wash the brew basket, gold tone
permanent filter, and carafe in hot,
soapy water, then rinse with clean
water and dry. Do not use abrasive
cleansers or scouring pads.
Installing the Ion-Exchange
Water Filter
Use of the ion-exchange water filter
is strongly recommended. The filter
softens the water while reducing
chlorine and other contaminants
which impair coffee flavour. The
handle of the filter also serves as a
water level indicator. Use of the water
filter is optional: the Coffee Maker
will operate normally without it.
The water filter is for use only with
municipally treated tap water or well
water that is regularly tested for
contaminants.
1. Remove the filter from its
packaging. The filter consists of a
long handle with a filter cartridge
at the end.
2. Place the filter cartridge in a
separate container filled with
fresh, cool water. The cartridge
should remain submerged in the
water for 10 minutes.
3. Lift the rear portion of the split-lid
using the tabs on either side of
the lid.
4. Place the filter cartridge in the
circular well at the bottom of the
water reservoir, aligning the tab on
the cartridge with the notch in the
well. The water level markings on
the filter handle will face forward.
Push the cartridge slightly to make
sure it fits snugly.
5. Every time you install a new filter,
run the Coffee Maker through a
complete brewing cycle without
coffee. Use a full carafe of clean,
cool water.
6. Replace the filter every three
months under normal use. Replace
it more often under heavy use or
hard-water conditions.

Preparing Your Coffee Maker for Use
To Set the Time-of-Day Clock
1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
2. When the Coffee Maker is first
plugged in or when power is
restored after an interruption, the
brew timer display will initially
show 12:00 am.
3. Press the Set (Clock) Button. The
brew timer display and Set (Clock)
indicator will begin to flash.
4. Press the “H” (hour) and “M”
(minute) Buttons below the brew
timer display to set the hour and
minutes. If a “H” or “M” Button is
pressed and held, the digits will
scroll rapidly. The AM and PM
indicator lights on the brew timer
display will change when the hour
digits roll past “12”. Make sure
the hour set is correct with respect
to AM or PM.
5. Press the Set (Clock) Button to exit
the clock-setting mode. The digits
on the brew timer display will stop
flashing and the Set (Clock)
indicator will go out. The Coffee
Maker will automatically record
the displayed time and exit clocksetting mode if no buttons are
pressed for 10 seconds.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these
instructions can result in

Operating Your Coffee Maker
Brewing Coffee
1. Fill a carafe with enough fresh, cool
water to make the desired amount
of coffee. A graduated scale on the
side of the glass carafe helps
measure the amount of water
required. The right side of the scale
(“coffee”) is a measurement of
carafe volume in 41⁄4 ounce (125 ml)
cups. The left side of the scale
(“water”) indicates the amount of
water needed to produce a given
number of cups. For thermal carafe
model 4KCM515, the scale on the
water filter handle can be used to
gauge the amount of water to add.
2. Lift the front lid and fill the water
reservoir with fresh cool water
using the reservoir fill-channel to
the right of the brew basket.
Water can also be poured directly
into the reservoir at the back of
the Coffee Maker.
3. After filling the reservoir, place the
carafe on the Coffee Maker
warming plate. Make sure the
bottom of the carafe is fully seated
on the plate – if the carafe isn’t
seated, the pause and pour
feature may engage and coffee
may overflow the brew basket.
4. Remove the brew basket from the
top of the Coffee Maker by
grasping the finger loop on the
front of the basket.
5. Insert a 10-12 cup flat-bottom
paper filter or the gold tone
permanent filter into the brew
basket. Never use both types of
filter at the same time – using
both may cause water to overflow
the brew basket.
6. Using the included scoop, fill the
filter with one rounded scoop of
ground coffee for each cup desired.
Use a medium grind appropriate for
automatic drip coffee makers: too
fine a grind will produce bitterness
and may clog the coffee filter.
NOTE: Always place the filter and
coffee into the removable brew
basket. Do not operate the Coffee
Maker without the brew basket in
place.
11
Operating Your Coffee Maker
7. Shake the brew basket slightly to
even out the bed of coffee. This
will help ensure uniform coffee
extraction and excellent flavour.
Place the basket into the Coffee
Maker, push it down to seat it
securely, and close the lid.
8. Press the On/Off Button to begin
brewing coffee. If you are only
brewing 1 to 4 cups of coffee,
press the 1-4 Cup Button
immediately after pressing the
On/Off Button. The 1 to 4 cup
brew cycle heats small quantities
of water thoroughly, ensuring
optimum flavour with small pots
of coffee.
NOTE: Lifting the front lid while
coffee is brewing will interrupt the
brew process and impair flavour.
9. The Coffee Maker will sound the
end-of-brewing tone when
brewing is complete.
10. The “Time Since Brew” display
indicates the time elapsed since
the completion of the brewing
cycle. The “30” segment will light
immediately after brewing,
indicating the coffee is less than
30 minutes old. Every 30 minutes,
a new segment will light.
11. At the end of 2 hours, the Coffee
Maker and warming plate will
automatically shut off. To turn off
the Coffee Maker manually, press
the On/Off button. Although the
thermal carafe model 4KCM515
does not have a warming plate,
the outside of the carafe may be
warm to the touch after brewing.
12. Repeat steps 1-8 to brew
additional carafes of coffee. Always
turn off the Coffee Maker and
allow it to cool for five minutes
before starting the next brew cycle.
Using the Thermal Carafe
(model 4KCM515 only)
The stainless steel thermal carafe
features a double walled, vacuum
insulated design that will keep coffee
hot – and flavourful – for hours. The
special lid and spout design doesn’t
require you to turn a stopper or press
a button to dispense coffee – just tilt
the carafe and pour! When you set
the carafe upright, the lid will seal
automatically.
•To remove the carafe lid for
cleaning, turn it counter-clockwise
and lift. The thermal carafe should
be hand-washed only – it is not
dishwasher safe.
•To maximize coffee temperature,
preheat the carafe before brewing
by removing the lid and rinsing the
interior with hot tap water.
12
Operating Your Coffee Maker
The Pause and Pour Feature
The pause and pour feature enables
you to remove the carafe from the
Coffee Maker and pour a cup of
coffee before brewing is finished.
When the carafe is removed, a special
valve stops the flow of coffee from
the brew basket. Brewing, however,
does not stop. If the carafe is not
placed back on the hot plate within
25 seconds, water will overflow the
brew basket and spill onto the
warming plate.
Pause and pour is a great
convenience for those in a hurry.
However, the flavours extracted from
ground coffee differ at each stage of
the brewing cycle, and a finished
carafe represents a delicate blend of
these flavours. Using pause and pour
will alter – and usually impair – the
flavour of the remaining coffee.
Using the Automatic Brew Timer
The Coffee Maker can be
programmed to brew coffee at a
preset time, making it easy to wake
up to fresh coffee every morning.
To program and activate the
automatic brew timer:
1. Press the Set (Program) Button.
The brew timer display and Set
(Program) indicator will begin to
flash. The brew timer display will
show the last brew time set.
2. Press the “H” (hour) and “M”
(minute) Buttons below the brew
timer display to set the hour and
minutes. If a “H” or “M” Button is
pressed and held, the digits will
scroll rapidly. The AM and PM
indicator lights on the brew timer
display will change when the hour
digits roll past “12”. Make sure
the desired brew time is correct
with respect to AM or PM.
3. After setting the brew time, press
the Set (Program) Button to exit
the program-setting mode. The
digits on the brew timer display
will stop flashing and the Set
(Program) indicator will go out.
The Coffee Maker will
automatically record the displayed
brew time and exit the programsetting mode if no buttons are
pressed for 10 seconds.
4. Fill the Coffee Maker with coffee
and fresh water, then activate the
automatic brew timer by pressing
the Auto On Button. The
programmed brew time will
appear briefly on the brew timer
display before it returns to the
time-of-day, and the Auto On
indicator will illuminate.
