SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

Welcome and congratulations on the purchase of your new MR. COFFEE Your new EJ Series coffeemaker will wake up with you in the morning and provide you breaks and treats during your hectic daily activities. How you enjoy your MR. COFFEE®Coffeemaker is up to you!

DECANTER USE AND CARE

Follow the instructions below to reduce or eliminate the chance of breaking the glass decanter:

• This decanter is designed for use with your MR. COFFEE® coffeemaker and therefore must never be used on a range top or in any oven, including a microwave oven.

• Do not set a hot decanter on a wet or cold surface.

• Do not use a cracked decanter or a decanter having a loose or weakened handle.

• Do not clean the decanter with abrasive cleaners, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials.

• Discard the decanter immediately if it is ever boiled dry.

• Protect the decanter from sharp blows, scratches or rough handling.

SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from a person or pet becoming entangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord.

2. An extension cord may be purchased and used if care is exercised in its use.

3. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at

least 10 amps and 120 volts. The resulting extended cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over a countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

4. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the

risk of electric shock, this plug will 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 modify the plug in any way.

5. You can customize the length of the power cord so that it is the exact length

you desire. To increase the length of the power cord: grasp the power cord (not the power plug) and gently lift it out of the slot, then pull it away from the coffeemaker. To decrease the length of the power cord: grasp the power cord (not the power plug), lift it out of the slot and gently feed it into the coffeemaker. Lock the cord in the slot when finished.

PREPARING FOR USE

Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee

For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground coffee measurement. Make sure you use medium grind coffee for a perfect brew.

A. Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart

To Brew Ground Coffee

12 Cups 9 tbsp. 10 Cups 7.5 tbsp.

8 Cups 6.5 tbsp. 6 Cups 4.5 tbsp. 4 Cups 3 tbsp.

1 level tablespoon (tbsp) = 5 gr./0.17 oz.

1 cup = 5 fl. oz. of brewed coffee

Use more or less coffee to suit your taste.

B. Water Filtration System

Congratulations! You are the owner of a MR. COFFEE

water filtration system. This carbonbased water filter improves the taste of your coffee by removing up to 97% of the chlorine from the water you may use to brew your coffee.

First, look for the MR. COFFEE

Filtration Friendly symbol on the bottom of your filter

basket. If you do not see this symbol, please call 1-800-672-6333.

To use the water filtration system in your MR. COFFEE

Coffeemaker, please follow

these steps:

Red Indicator

1. Align the red indicator on the frame to the letter

that corresponds with the month that you are using the disk for the first time. This serves to remind you to change the disk every month (approx. 30 brewing cycles).

NOTE: For optimum results, use the water filtration system with a permanent filter.

2. Rinse the water filter in fresh water before first use.

3. Follow Adding Water and Coffee

instructions.

4. When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse

the water filter with fresh water. Do not put your water filter in the dishwasher.

To replace the water filter disks, twist the gray disk cover from your water filtration system. Remove the used disk. Insert the new disk into the frame and twist the cover back into place.

C. Adding Water and Ground Coffee

1. Open the brew basket lid. For your convenience, you can lift out the removable filter basket.

2. Place a MR. COFFEE

paper basket-style filter or a MR. COFFEE

brand 10-12 cup

permanent filter into the removable filter basket (Figure 5).

NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the filter basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen

the filter before placing in the filter basket and adding ground coffee and water.

3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently

shake to level the coffee. See the Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart.

4. After following instructions in the Water

Filtration System, place the MR. COFFEE

FIGURE 5

water filter in the basket, making sure that the side marked “this side up” faces you and that the water filter is level.

5. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly centered and all the way down in the brew

basket and close the lid.

BREWING COFFEE NOW

1. After completing the steps in the Adding Water and Coffee section and with the glass decanter

and the filter basket securely in place, turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the BREW NOW button once. The BREW NOW blue light will turn on to signal that the coffeemaker is on and brewing (Figure 6).

2. To enjoy a more full flavored cup of coffee, press

the Brew Strength button once. The STRONG Brew Strength amber light will turn on. The coffeemaker will remain in the Brew Strength you have selected until you change it back to REGULAR strength by pressing the Brew Strength button or until you unplug the machine (Figure 7).

3. After the used coffee grounds have cooled, carefully

remove the filter basket and discard them.

NOTE: The shower head cover is hot after brewing. Always allow the coffeemaker to cool down before cleaning.

FIGURE 6

IGURE

6. Fill the decanter with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces) For easy and accurate filling, the water markings on the glass decanter and on the dual water windows show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill past the “12 cup MAX line” or water will flow out of the overfill hole in the back of the coffeemaker.

The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of water poured in the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum absorption of water by the coffee grounds.

7. Lift the pour through reservoir lid and pour the water into the water reservoir. Close the lid and place the empty decanter onto the warmer plate.

NOTE: Make sure the decanter is fully placed on the warming plate or the water and the grounds will overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or damage to property.

CAUTION! To reduce the risk of damaging the decanter and/or the risk of personal injury, do not add cold water to the decanter if the decanter is already hot. Allow the decanter to cool before using.
