INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER
IMPORTANT: Every time you install a new
water filter, run the Coffee Maker through
a complete brew cycle without coffee�
Use a full carafe of clean, cool water�
OPERATING THE COFFEE MAKER
1
Place the charcoal filter in a
container filled with fresh, cool
water� The charcoal filter should
remain submerged in the water
for 10 minutes� Rinse the charcoal
filter under running water for
5 seconds after soaking�
Before first use
Wash the Gold Tone permanent filter, filter
basket, and carafe in hot, soapy water; then
rinse with clean water and dry� Do not use
abrasive cleansers or scouring pads�
NOTE: These parts can also be washed
in the top rack of the dishwasher�
Installing the charcoal filter
Using the filter is optional but strongly
recommended� The Coffee Maker will
operate normally without the filter, but it
reduces contaminants that can impair
coffee flavour�
The filter is for use only with municipally
treated tap water or well water that is
regularly tested for contaminants; it is not
intended to remove contaminants in water
that is not suitable for drinking�
3Lift the water tank lid using
the tab at the front of the lid�
2Put the charcoal filter into the filter
assembly� Snap to close�

FILLING THE COFFEE MAKER WITH WATER FOR BREWING
TIP: Brew two pots of fresh, cool water and discard before brewing the first
pot of coffee�
1
Lift the water tank lid and fill
with enough fresh, cool water to
make the desired amount of coffee�
Use the cup indicators on the water
tank window to view water input�
Close the water tank lid�
2
Place the carafe in the Coffee Maker�
Make sure the bottom of the carafe
is fully seated; otherwise, the Pause
and pour feature may not engage,
causing water and coffee to overflow
the filter basket�
The Pause and pour feature enables you to remove the carafe from the Coffee Maker
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 filter basket� However, brewing
does not stop� If the carafe is not placed back in the Coffee Maker within 25 seconds,
water and coffee grounds will overflow the filter basket�
PAUSE AND POUR FEATURE
NOTE: When using the Small Batch brew cycle, make sure to fill the tank with
only the amount of water needed to brew your desired number of cups� If you
put in 1,84 litres of water, the Coffee Maker will brew all 1,84 litres�

FILLING THE FILTER BASKET
1
Open the brew basket� Make sure
the filter basket and filter are placed
inside of the basket door before
adding coffee�
NOTE: Do not operate the Coffee Maker without the filter basket in place�
NOTE: If you do not wish to use the
Gold Tone permanent filter, you may
use a flat bottom paper coffee filter
instead; do not use both together�
When using a paper coffee filter,
place the filter inside the filter basket,
pressing the filter into the sides of the
filter basket� Pre-wetting the paper
filter is not required� The paper coffee
filter needs to be placed in the filter
basket before adding ground coffee�

filter, you may remove the filter from
the filter basket to add ground coffee,
if desired�

CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE COFFEE MAKER
Calcium deposits (scale) from water will build up in the Coffee Maker over time and
impair brewing efficiency and coffee quality� If you notice that it takes longer than
usual to brew or that the Coffee Maker is making unusual noises, then it is time to
descale� The “Clean” indicator will flash when the Coffee Maker has completed
100 brew cycles� Descaling should be done as soon as possible to preserve the
performance and life of your Coffee Maker�
1
Before descaling, always remove
the water filter (see the “Installing
the water filter” section) and make
sure the filter basket contains no
coffee or coffee filters�
NOTE: The Coffee Maker can be
descaled using a vinegar and water
solution or by using a packaged
descaling agent� Always mix the
descaling solution using cool water�
When using vinegar, fill the carafe
with a solution consisting of 1/2 vinegar
and 1/2 water�
When using a descaling agent, follow
the directions on the package for
the recommended ratios of descaling
agent and water to use�
The Coffee Maker should be run
through a complete Clean cycle using
a full tank of the descaling solution�
