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 flavor. 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. 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. Rinse
the filter under running tap water for
5 seconds after soaking.
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.

Operating Your Coffee Maker
BREWING COFFEE
NOTE: Brew one pot of fresh, cool water
and discard before brewing the first pot
of coffee. (First time use only).
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
1
4
⁄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.
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 clock-setting mode if no
buttons are pressed for 10 seconds.
3. After filling the reservoir, place the
carafe on the Coffee Maker’s carafe
tray. Make sure the lid is secure and in
the locked position, and the bottom
of the carafe is fully seated on the
tray – if the carafe isn’t seated, the
pause and pour feature may engage
and may cause water and coffee to
overflow the brew basket.
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.

Operating Your Coffee Maker
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. Do not use both
types of filters at the same time. Using
both filters might cause water and
coffee to overflow the brew basket.
6. Using the included scoop, fill the filter
with one level 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.
7. Shake the brew basket slightly to even
out the bed of coffee. Place the basket
into the Coffee Maker, push it down
to seat it securely. Be sure the front lid
is fully closed before brewing.
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 flavor with small
pots of coffee.
NOTE: Lifting the front lid while coffee is
brewing will interrupt the brew process
and impair flavor.
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.
11. At the end of 2 hours, the Coffee
Maker will automatically shut off. To
turn off the Coffee Maker manually,
press the On/Off button. The outside of
the carafe may be warm to the touch
after brewing. Use discretion when
placing the carafe on unprotected
surfaces immediately 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.
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 Carafe Tray
within 25 seconds, water and coffee will
overflow the brew basket.

indicator will illuminate.
5. The Coffee Maker will begin brewing
at the programmed time.
6. Each time you want the Coffee Maker
to brew at the programmed time,
activate the automatic brew timer
by pressing the Auto On Button. The
Coffee Maker will always default to
the last brew time set.
NOTE: To cancel automatic brewing,
deactivate the brew timer by pressing the
Auto On Button. When deactivated, the
Auto On indicator light will go out.
If program time has not been set prior
to pressing Auto On button, the coffee
maker will enter program set mode (see
“Using the Automatic Brew Timer” on
page 10).
THE CLEANING NEEDED INDICATOR
Calcium deposits (“scale”) from water will
build up in the Coffee Maker heat pump
over time and impair brewing efficiency
and coffee quality. When the Coffee
Maker detects a build-up of scale, the
cleaning needed indicator will light after
a brewing cycle is complete. Once this
occurs, descaling should be done as soon
as possible to preserve the performance
and life of your Coffee Maker. Please see
page 12 for descaling steps.

Coffee Brewing Suggestions:
Advice for Great Taste
Fresh Coffee Beans
Truly great coffee can only come from
fresh coffee beans. To preserve the
freshness of your coffee beans, keep the
beans in an opaque, air-tight container
and store them in a cool, dry place.
Refrigeration is not recommended, as
condensation tends to form on the
beans whenever the container is opened.
Freezing can help preserve beans stored
for an extended period, but it will also
impair the flavor.
The Right Grind
The best cup of coffee comes from
coffee beans that are properly ground
just before brewing. Grinders like the
KitchenAid
LINE
KitchenAid
excellent results. When grinding, be
sure to grind your coffee to a medium
grind level – the appropriate grind for
automatic drip coffee makers.
The Proper Amount
of Ground Coffee
A good starting point is one scoop
of coffee for every cup of brew water
marked on the carafe or the water filter
guide. Finer grinds usually require less
coffee, but may also produce bitterness
and clog the filter.
®
Blade Coffee Grinder, PRO
®
Series Burr Coffee Mill, or the
®
Model A-9® Coffee Mill offer
For weaker coffee, brew using the
suggested ratio of coffee grounds
and water, then dilute with hot water.
This maximizes flavor and minimizes
bitterness.
Brew Water Purity
For better tasting coffee, use the ionexchange water filter that comes
with your Coffee Maker. It reduces
contaminants, softens the water, and
enhances flavor. Be sure to replace the
filter promptly every three months.
Where local water is extremely poor,
you may wish to use bottled water. Do
not use distilled water or mineral water
since they can damage your Coffee
Maker.
Coffee Maker Cleanliness
Since the coffee oils that build up on the
brew basket and carafe can go stale and
impair the flavor of the brewed coffee,
it’s important that these two items are
cleaned daily in order to make the besttasting coffee.

after the brewing cycle is complete,
repeat Step 2 using fresh descaling
solution. Keep repeating Step 2 until
the cleaning needed indicator no
longer lights after brewing.
4. Rinse the Coffee Maker by running
it through two brewing cycles using a
full carafe of fresh, cool water
each time.
5. Wash the brew basket in hot, soapy
water and rinse with hot water. This
part can also be washed in the upper
rack of the dishwasher.
6. Reinstall or replace the water filter.

Troubleshooting
• If the brew timer display is not
illuminated:
Check to see if the Coffee Maker is
plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
If it is, check the fuse or circuit breaker
on the electrical circuit the Coffee Maker
is connected to and make sure the circuit
is closed.
• If only a portion of the water
added to the Coffee Maker actually
brews:
The Coffee Maker requires immediate
descaling. Please refer to the descaling
instructions on the previous page.
• If “Err4” appears on the brew
timer display:
– A button may be jammed. Unplug the
Coffee Maker and press each button
several times.
WARNING
• If “Err1”, “Err2”, or “Err3” appear
on the brew timer display:
Press the On/Off Button to reset the
Coffee Maker. (If the Coffee Maker

environment, warm the Coffee Maker to
normal room temperature before doing
this.) If the error codes reappear, there
is a problem with the Coffee Maker
electronics.
If the problem cannot be fixed with the
steps above, please refer to the Warranty
and Service section beginning on the
following page.
