the coeemaker. Otherwise the handle may nterfere with the ow of the coee from
the grinder into the lter basket.
4. Remove the hopper lid and ll the hopper with coee beans. Be
sure to have enough beans in the hopper for the ampunt of coee
you intend to brew. The hopper should always be kept at least half
full, maximum capacity is about 1/2 lb. Do not overpack, as it could
jam the grinder. See Fig. 3.
5. Turn the Grinder Selector Knob to chose the preferred size of the
coee grounds, corase, medium or ne. See Fig. 3a.
6. Plug in the appliance. The LCD display
window lights up and the coeemaker will
beep for about 2 seconds to let you know
the clock is not set.
The clock does not have to be set to brew
coee. To set the clock, see SETTING THE
CLOCK TIMER AND AUTO-BREWING.
Each time you turn the unit on, the
message: Check Basket, shows up on the LCD
display window. THis is s afreminder to see if
used grounds are still in the lter basket. To

8. To select the strength of the coee, press the
Strength button until the desired strength (mild,
medium, strong) is highlighted in the LCD
display window. See Fig. 5.
9. To use pre-ground coee, push the Grind O
button to disable the grinder feature. The Grind
O button will stay backlit. Add ground coee to
the paper or gold-tone lter. The amount of
coee you use is a matter of personal taste. For
an average strong coee, one measuring spoon
(approx. 4-5g) is sucient per cup (150ml).
The easy-to-use programmable digital controls let you know when the coee is ready, and even
keeps track of the freshness of each brewed carafe. It’s never been easier to brew the perfect cup
of coee.
1. Press the OPEN button on the right side
of the unit and swing out the Filter Basket
Door. See Fig. 2
2. Fill the water reservoir with cold water.
You ca use the coee carafe to ll with the
amount of water you require. There is a
gauge for 2 to 12 cups (270ml to 1730ml)
on both the water reservoir window and
on the glass carafe. These markings apply
for the amount of fresh water. The amount
of brewed coee will dier slightly, as the
coee grinds absorb some water. Be sure
to add no more than 12 cups, or the carafe
may overow.
3. Place the permanent gold-tone lter (or a No. 4 basket paper lter) into the lter basket.You can
use both the gold-tone lter and the paper lter together. Using the gold-tone lter alone will
allow some ne grounds to fall into the coee carafe. This will appear as sediment in the carafe.
