CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT FIRST CUP?
Close the drip stop to pause the brew cycle, and pour
yourself a cup. Then, reopen the drip stop to continue
the brew.
STOP THE DRIPS AFTER A BREW
At the end of a brew, close the drip stop
to prevent coee dripping from the
brew basket.
DRIP STOP
The drip stop is used to close o the brew basket to prevent any coee from dispensing. You will need to
manually open and close the drip stop by moving the handle to your desired position. The drip stop can
be closed and reopened at any point before, during, or after a brew.
INTELLIGENT WARMING PLATE
The Intelligent Warming Plate will automatically turn on while brewing a Classic or Rich
brew on any Carafe size and remain on for 2 hours. To adjust how long the Intelligent
Warming Plate remains on (up to 4 hours), refer to the Owner's Guide.
When the Intelligent Warming Plate is on, it can be turned o manually by
pressing WARM.
It can be turned on manually by pressing WARM while Grounds mode, Classic or Rich,
and any Carafe size are selected.
IMPORTANT: The light on the base of the brewer will illuminate only when the warming plate is
hot and will remain illuminated until the plate has cooled down.
MAINTENANCE
FROTHING
WARNING: To avoid contact with steam and hot surfaces, DO NOT reach
across top of brewer to froth.
1. Add milk to your cup until it is about 1⁄3full.
For cold froth, continue to Step 2.
For hot froth, microwave for 45–60 seconds.
2. Swing the arm of the frother toward the front of
the brewer. Install the frother whisk by twisting it
to the right.
3. Hold the cup under the frother and submerge the
whisk just below the surface of the milk. Press and
hold the button on top of the frother and froth for
30–45 seconds.
4. Remove the frother whisk by twisting it to the left.
Keep your cup below the whisk while you carry it to
your sink or dishwasher for easy cleaning.
THE INTEGRATED FROTHER DOES NOT HEAT MILK.
KEEPING COFFEE HOT
For a hotter cup of coee, we recommend pre warming the cup with hot water before
brewing or pouring into.
