Pre-Use Cleaning
Wash the carafe and carafe lid in hot, soapy water, then rinse
with clean water and dry. Do not use abrasive cleansers or
scouring pads. The carafe and lid may also be washed in the top
rack of the dishwasher.
Adjusting Warming Plate Temperature
The warming plate can hold coffee at a choice of two serving
temperatures. Turn the Temperature Switch clockwise to the “Low”
position to preserve the flavor of coffee served at a leisurely pace.

illuminated. Turning the Temperature Switch clockwise to the “Off”
position shuts off the warming plate.

feature – it will remain on until the Temperature Switch is turned
to the “Off” position.

When using the warming plate, keep freshly brewed coffee up to
temperature by turning on the plate a few minutes before your
coffee is finished brewing.
