. Besure that the water
container ISempty. Remove literature, etc. If Inserted In
the water container.
.The lid of the glass carafe
must be properly positioned dUring the brewing pro-
cess. Position the lid over
the carafe and snap the
rectangular piece onto the handle. The lid ISthen
locked In place.
. Make sure that the sWivel
filter IS.properly closed during the brewing pro- cess. When closing the sWivel filter you will feel a
noticeable resistance when the handle of the sWivel filter 15approxima- tely '/2 Inch away from the
non-removable base. Push In firmly until the handle
touches the side of the coffeemaker.
. Caution: If the sWivel filter
ISnot completely closed, the "Stop'n Serve" trigger will not function properly, which may cause hot water
or hot coffee to overflow.

SWing the sWivel filter to your nght (see figure 0). Insert a pa- per filter (we recommend KRUPS size 4) with the seam pOinting towards the handle of the filter holder (see figure 0).
We suggest uSing one level KRUPS measunng scoop of ground coffee for each cup of robust coffee (see figure 0). After uSing your KRUPS coffeemaker several times you can adjust the measure to suit your own taste.
Close the sWivel filter (see figure 0) and make sure that it IS completely closed.
Attention: Make sure that the filter paper does not tip over
when closing the sWivel filter. If this happens, the water might run between the filter paper and the filter holder producing a very weak cup of coffee.
Turn the selector switch to the "on" position. The red Indicator light In the switch will illuminate, Indicating that the brewing pro-
cess has begun (see figure Cli».
"STOP'N SERVE" FEATURE
The "Stop'n Serve" feature IS
KRUPS' answer to the Impati- ent coffee dnnker's clamor for
"a qUick cup of coffee!" This
dEwlce automatically stops the flow of brewed coffee through the filter cone if the glass cara-
fe IS removed from the warm-
Ing plate dunng the brewing
cycle. You have about 20 sec
onds between the removal of
the carafe and Its being reins-
erted to allow the service of
one or two cups of coffee.
The "Stop'n Serve" device closes
off the filter cone so effectively
that there ISvirtually no coffee-
dnp onto the warming plate
(one drop, at most!), Once the
carafe ISreplaced, the brewing
cycle and the flow of coffee
Into the carafe are resumed.
CAUTION
Ifcoffee does dnp onto the
warming plate after removal of the carafe, it IS usually an In- diction that too much ground cotfee has been placed Into the paper filter. This causes the water that Jets Into the filter
cone to overflow between the paper filter and the sides of the
filter cone. The overflow carnes coffee grounds that Interfere
with the snap-shut action of the filter holder, thus allowing
brewed coffee to continue to dnp through. If this blockage
and subsequent dnpplng do occur, replace the glass carafe Immediately and allow the full brewing cycle to run its course. Do not swmg out the sWIVel filter until the
brewing cycle IS completed.
SETTING "WAKE.UP" TIME This feature enablesyou to

system, it will penodically need cleaning with a decalcifying agent.

waterIShard,youwillneed
to decalcify morefrequently than In areaswith softwater.
. Itwillalso depend upon how
often you use your coffee-
maker.

cleaning IS necessary by an obvIous slowdown In the
brewing time of your coffee.
