CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk

of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary . Also the cord must be: (1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V, and at least 13 A, 1625 W, and (2) the cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

1. Plug into 120V-60 Hz outlet. Y ou do not have to set clock or timer

to brew.

2. Fill decanter with cold water and pour desired number of cups into water reservoir. Use markings on water window to gauge level of water required to brew desired number of 5-ounce cups. The number 10 at the top indicates maximum 10-cup yield. Replace decanter on warming plate.

4. You are now ready to initiate the automatic mill and brew process.

(If you wish to use the delay timer so you can program the coffeemaker to mill and brew later, please read section entitled “Programming the Timer” to make coffee later.

Programming the Mill

CAUTION: DO NOT OPEN UNTIL BLADES STOP AND BREWING

IS COMPLETE. CLEAN AND DRYALL PARTS AFTER EACH USE. If you desire a medium grind, your machine is automatically preset to

“4” or medium grind; refer to step 2 below. If you wish to program a finer or coarser grind, start with step 1.

1. To set the mill to grind your beans to the desired level of coarseness, press SELECT button to select different coarseness levels, 1-7. Seven levels of coarseness are available. Coarseness is determined by length of time milled—the longer the time, the finer the grind. Setting 1 will mill the beans for 15 seconds. Setting 7 will mill the beans for 40 seconds. For medium grind, try setting 4 (if you do not select a setting, the unit will automatically default to setting 4). Make sure mill light is off.

2. Press ON button to initiate the mill/brew process; the red ON light will come on. Mill will start. After mill stops, unit will automatically switch to brewing operation. To interrupt milling or brewing, press OFF button. Red ON light will then turn off. Do not attempt to lift mill/brew lid until operation has come to a complete stop.

3. After brewing is complete, remove decanter from warming plate and serve. Coffeemaker warming plate will cycle on and off to maintain proper coffee temperature for one hour before it automatically shuts off and the red ON light turns off.

4. Unplug and allow unit to cool for 10 minutes between cycles. Allow to cool completely before attempting to clean.

Brewing Instructions (Continued)

NOTE: After unit is turned off or automatically shuts off after one hour, mill coarseness setting will default to level 4 or medium grind. Coarseness setting will also default to level 4 in the event of power interruption.

Programming the Timer to

Make Coffee Later

1. Press and hold the TIME button for 2 seconds. The green TIME light will come on and display will read 12:00. The unit is now in the timer programming mode.

2. Press “HR” and “MIN” buttons to program start time. Small dot in upper left corner signifies clock is programmed for A.M. No dot in upper left corner means clock is programmed for P.M.

3. The timer display and LED light will flash 5 times to indicate that timer is now set. Press and release the TIME button. The green TIME light will come on. NOTE: If unit is operated before programmed time, timer will need to be reset. To do this, simply depress TIME button. LED light will come on to indicate timer has been reset.

IMPORTANT: If programming timer to future start time, make sure water tank has been filled and mill/brew basket contains the correct amount of beans.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION: ALWAYS UNPLUG UNIT BEFORE CLEANING AND ALLOW TO COOL FOR 15 MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN. NEVER USE SCOURING AGENTS. NEVER IMMERSE MACHINE IN LIQUIDS. NEVER CLEAN MACHINE UNDER RUNNING WATER.

Decalcification of Your Mill & Brew Coffeemaker

For best tasting coffee, and to promote longer use of your Mill & Brew , follow the procedure for decalcification every month, or after 30 uses. If you have hard water, you may notice a slowing of the brewing process—an indication that you should decalcify more frequently.

Programming the Mill (Continued)

1. Press OFF button.

2. Unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.

3. Wash and dry all removable parts.

CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR COFFEEMAKER

UNIT IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.

CAUTION: BLADES ARE SHARP. HANDLE CAREFULLY.

4. Special cleaning of the coffeemaker is recommended at least

once a month, depending on frequency of use and quality of water. Mineral deposits can form a coating in the coffeemaker. This may cause an off flavor in the water and may lengthen brewing time.

5. Fill the decanter with 1 cup of vinegar and add 3 cups cold water. Pour into water reservoir.

6. Make sure mill/brew basket and assembly are securely in place and lid is closed.

7. Place decanter on warming plate.

8. Press ON button.

9. Halfway through brewing, press the OFF button. Carefully

remove the decanter and place on a heat resistant surface. Wait 15 minutes and pour solution back into water reservoir.

10. Press ON button. Allow all solution to empty into decanter. After dripping stops, press OFF button and discard solution.

11. Allow coffeemaker to cool 10 minutes. Rinse it out by brewing a decanter full of cold water. Discard water.

12. Wash, rinse and dry decanter and lid.

13. You may also use a commercial cleaner made for automatic

coffeemakers.

14. When coffeemaker has cooled, wipe exterior housing with a damp cloth.

Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be performed by an authorized service center.

Mill & Brew Assembly

Never attempt to disassemble the grinder. If you wish to empty the mill/brew basket to refill with different beans, pour beans out, then fill with new beans. There will always be some ground coffee remaining in the basket.
