Before Brewing Coffee
CAUTION: To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the
Coffee Maker or allow AC cord to come into contact with water or
other liquids.
1. After carefully unpacking from carton, the inside of your Coffee
Maker and thermal carafe must be cleaned.
2. Brew 8 cups of fresh water only. Follow the instructions in the
Brewing Coffee Section following, but DO NOT ADD COFFEE
GROUNDS TO THE PAPER FILTER.
3. When all the water has brewed into the carafe, switch the
Coffee Maker OFF. The light will turn off.
4. Allow the Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, discard the water
from the thermal carafe, then repeat steps 2 and 3.
5. After the second pot of water has cooled, discard the water and
thoroughly wash the removable filter basket (see illustration on

Hints For Best Results
• For optimal holding temperature, rinse the inside of thermal
carafe with warm water before brewing; empty and screw lid
to closed position. Place carafe securely onto coffeemaker.
• To serve, press down on black button and pour.
• We recommend using coffee which has been ground
specifically for automatic drip coffee makers. This type of cof fee
is prepared specifically for your Coffee Maker’s brewing system
and promotes fuller extraction to provide rich, full-bodied coffee.
• Use only cone-shaped filters with this Coffee Maker.
Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores.
Use standard #4 filters. Do not use basket-style paper filters.
