INTELLIFRESH®FEATURES IF2
IntelliFresh Function and Features
The LED coffee level gauge on the front of the satellite is
also the indicator for the IntelliFresh Quality Timer system.
When the quality timer is set to on (default), it alerts you to
when the coffee has exceeded the programmed freshness
time. The Quality Timer is activated via a signal sent
through corresponding connectors from the brewer to the
satellite. When the warmer (automatically) shuts off, the
coffee level gauge turns blue, provided there is still coffee
in the satellite. Otherwise the LEDs turn off completely.
See the PROGRAMMING GUIDE to change the Quality
Timer settings, including freshness (quality) time and LED
color.
