SHORT POWER SUPPLY CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be
used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
NOTICES:
• Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit
on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your coee maker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
• During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and
will not recur after a few uses.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS, PRODUCT LABELS AND WARNINGS BEFORE USING THE PRECISION CONTROL COFFEE MAKER.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against electric shock, do not place or immerse cord, plugs, or appliance in water or other liquid.
• This appliance is not to be used by children or by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Children should not play with the appliance.
• Unplug from outlet when either the appliance or display clock is not in use, and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking o parts,
and before cleaning the appliance.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner.
Return appliance to an Authorized Service Center for examination, repair or adjustment. Do not attempt to replace or splice a damaged cord.
• The use of an accessory not recommended by the appliance manufacturer for use with this appliance may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• To disconnect, turn any control to the o position, then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• All lids should be closed during use.
• Scalding may occur if the lid is removed or brew basket door is opened during or immediately after the brewing cycles. Contents may be hot.
Allow to cool before opening the lid.
For appliances with glass containers:
• The container is designed for use with this appliance. It must never be used on a range top.
• Do not set a hot container on a wet or cold surface.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as rinsing, washing, filling, or immersing a hot container with cold liquids.
• Do not use a cracked or chipped container or a container having a loose or weakened handle.
• Do not clean container with cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive material.
ADDING WATER AND COFFEE
• Once coeemaker is plugged in and clock is set, open the Brew Basket by swinging it all the way to the left.
Place disposable #4 cone-shaped filter into the Removable Cone Style Filter Basket and swing Brew Basket all
the way to the right to secure in place. (See the Suggested Coee Measurement Chart.)
• Fill the Glass Carafe with cold fresh water to the desired capacity. For easy and accurate filling, the water
markings on the Glass Carafe and on the Water Window show the amount of water needed to make the
corresponding desired number of cups.
• Do not fill past the “10 cup line” or water will flow out of the overfill hole in the back of the coeemaker.
• Place the Glass Carafe on the Warming Plate.
• The amount of coee 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 coee grounds.
NOTE: Make sure the Glass Carafe 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 Glass Carafe and/or the risk of personal injury, do not add cold water
to the Carafe if it is hot. Allow it to cool before using.
BREWING COFFEE
• After addition of water and coee and the Glass Carafe and the filter basket securely in place, turn the
coeemaker on by pressing the BREW/OFF Button once. The LED light will illuminate signaling that the
coeemaker is on and brewing.
• When brewing begins the LCD Screen will continue to show real time. Press the HOUR button once and the
LCD screen will show the time the coee is being kept warm. In this way, you can keep track of the coee
keep-warm time.
• You can go back to real time on the LCD Screen by simply pressing the HOUR button.
• To enjoy a fuller and stronger cup of coee, press the STRONG Button. If brewing to the SCA guidelines for Golden
Cup Standard, do not use the STRONG setting.
• When the coee has finished brewing, the Coee Maker will continue to warm coee for 4 hours, before
automatically shutting o.
• Once you are finished, allow Coee Maker to cool before cleaning.
• To turn the coeemaker o, press the BREW/OFF button once. Be sure to turn your coeemaker o when
no longer using it.
