PARTS AND FEATURES PREPARING TO USE YOUR COFFEEMAKER
Before the first use of the coffeemaker wash the brew basket, the permanent
gold-tone filter, the carafe and carafe lid in either the top rack of your dishwasher,
or by hand in warm, sudsy water.
The exterior of the coffeemaker, the control panel area and the warming plate
should only be cleaned with a soft damp cloth.
NOTE: NEVER clean the warming plate unless it is completely cool.
After all parts are washed for the first time, pour cold water up to the 12 cup level
mark in the water reservoir. Brew it through the coffeemaker as instructed in
BREWING, but do not add coffee grounds to the paper filter. When done, turn off
the coffeemaker and discard the water from the carafe.
To clean inside of the reservoir, raise
the cover and allow it to rest in the
open position. Wipe surfaces with a
damp cloth (See Fig. 2), and close
cover.
NOTE: DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads when cleaning
your coffeemaker. NEVER immerse the coffeemaker in water or any liquid.

OPERATING YOUR COFFEEMAKER
The easy-to-use programmable digital controls let you know when the coffee is
ready, and even keeps track of the freshness of each brewed carafe. It’s never
been easier to brew the perfect cup of coffee.
BREWING COFFEE
1. Open the top cover (See Fig.3).
2. Use the carafe to fill the water tank
of the coffeemaker to the desired
level with cold water. There is a gauge
marked from 4 to 12 cups (600ml to
1800ml) on both the coffeemaker’s
water tank and on the sides of the
carafe (see Fig. 4). These marks show
the amount of cold water needed for
each cup of coffee.The amount of
brewed coffee will differ slightly due
to the coffee grinds absorbing
some water.
3. Place either the permanent gold-tone
filter or a size #4 cone paper filter into
the brew basket (see Fig. 5).
4. Add ground coffee. The amount of
coffee you use is a matter of personal
taste (we recommend one heaping
tablespoon for every two cups).
Experiment with different amounts of
ground coffee per cup until you brew
your perfect cup of coffee. You can
also try using a paper filter along with
the gold-tone filter.
5. Close the cover. Place carafe on the
warming plate and plug in the
appliance. The display window
illuminates green and the coffeemaker
beeps for about 1 second if the clock is
not set. The clock does not have to be
set to brew coffee. To set the clock
time, see SETTING THE CLOCK, TIMER
AND AUTO-BREWING.
OPERATING YOUR COFFEEMAKER cont.
6. Turn on the coffeemaker by pushing in the START/STOP button. The START/STOP
indicator will illuminate to show that the coffeemaker is brewing. After a few
seconds, hot water flows into the filter to brew coffee. When the water stops
flowing, brewing is complete, and the coffeemaker automatically switches to
the warming mode. For delayed brewing, see SETTING THE CLOCK, TIMER AND
AUTO-BREWING.
7. When you have poured out all the coffee in the carafe, press the START/STOP
button to turn off the appliance, and remove the carafe from the warming plate.
NOTE: If the coffeemaker is not turned off, it will automatically shut itself off
after two hours.
BREWING COFFEE cont.
PAUSE AND POUR FEATURE
The pause and pour feature enables you to remove the carafe from the Coffeemaker
and pour a cup of coffee before brewing is finished. When the carafe is removed,
a special valve stops the flow of coffee from the brew basket to the carafe. Brewing
does not stop. IMPORTANT: If the carafe is not replaced under the brew basket after
20 seconds, water and coffee will overflow from the brew basket.
OPERATING THE CONTROL PANEL
SETTING THE CLOCK, TIMER AND AUTO-BREWING
Use the Hour and Min Buttons to Set the Clock:
1. When the coffeemaker is first plugged in, the clock will flash the default
time of 12:00 AM.
2. Press the Hour button to change the setting to any hour number between
12:00 am to 11:00 pm.
3. Press the Min button to change the setting to any minute number between 1 and 59
4. You can make the hours and minutes move more quickly in the clock display by
holding the buttons down.

are released.

CARE AND CLEANING
To clean the inside of the water reservoir, raise the one-piece cover and allow it to rest
in the open position. Pull the water spreader hose out from under the guide on the
underside of the cover (See Fig. 2), wipe surfaces with a damp cloth, replace water
spreader hose under guide, and close cover. Do not use abrasive cleansers or
scouring pads.
CARAFE CARE
A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from a hot liquid.
To avoid breaking:
1. DO NOT allow all liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the warming plate
and never heat the glass carafe when empty.
2. DISCARD the carafe if chipped, cracked, or damaged in any manner.
3. NEVER use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers; they will scratch and weaken
the glass.
4. DO NOT place the carafe on or near a gas or electric burner, in a heated oven,
or in a microwave oven.
5. Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.
6. DO NOT set a hot carafe down on a wet or cold surface.
ALWAYS UNPLUG the coffeemaker from the electric outlet before cleaning.
The exterior of the coffeemaker, the control panel area and the warming plate should
only be cleaned with a soft damp cloth.
WARNING: NEVER immerse the coffeemaker in water or any liquid.
WARNING: DO NOT clean the warming plate unless it is completely
cool. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
