Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
- All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans, or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
- Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans. If buying preground coffee, chose a package with the latest expiration date or a smaller quantity.
- If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/ medium grind. This will yield the best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly ground coffee within about a week of grinding.
- Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield better-tasting coffee than tap water.
- Use approximately 1 tablespoon of grounds for each cup of coffee being made. To avoid overflow, use about 1/3 less grounds when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.
- Make sure your coffee maker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning” section.
How to Use the Brew Options and Clean Notification
BREW OPTIONS
Your coffee maker will default to the “Regular” strength coffee setting when brewing.

• The brew cycle counter resets every time the coffee maker is unplugged.
If you do not want to perform the cleaning procedure, press the I/ ON/OFF button two times to clear the display.
Care and Cleaning
WARNING Shock Hazard. Do not immerse cord, plug, or coffee maker in any liquid.
All coffee makers should be cleaned at least once a month (once a week for areas with hard water).
Unplug coffee maker (this resets brew counter for cleaning mode notification). Wipe coffee maker with a damp cloth or sponge. Dry. Remove water filter and water filter base (see “How to Replace the Water Filter”). Pour a minimum of 1 pint (2 cups/473 ml) white vinegar into water reservoir. | ||
 |
Press the I/ ON/OFF button once. After 30 seconds, turn OFF. Wait 30 minutes to allow vinegar to clean. Then turn ON again. When brew cycle is finished, wait for unit to cool. |
Empty carafe and rinse. Run 2–3 more brew cycles with CLEAN WATER only. Allow to cool between cycles. |

How to Replace the Water Filter (optional accessory)
For better-tasting coffee, use a water filter. Filter replacement is recommended every 60 cycles
Carafe Safety Precautions
- Do not use a cracked carafe or a carafe having a loose or weakened handle.
- This carafe is designed to be used only on the keep-hot plate of your coffee maker. Do not use on a gas or electric rangetop, or in a microwave or conventional oven.
- To avoid breakage, handle carafe with care. Avoid impact. Glass will break as a result of impact. Use care when filling with water to avoid hitting faucet.
- Do not place hot carafe on cool or wet surface. Allow to cool before washing or adding liquids.
- Do not set empty carafe on a hot heating surface.
- Do not clean with steel wool pads, abrasive cleanser, or any other materials that may scratch.
This symbol alerts you to the potential danger for personal injury if you fail to read and follow these safety precautions
This symbol reminds you that glass is fragile and can break which could result in personal injury.
- Do not place hands inside carafe. When handling, be careful if wearing any hand jewelry, especially diamond rings. Jewelry can scratch the glass, which increases possibility of breakage.
- Do not bump, scratch, or boil dry.
- Discard carafe if it is cracked, scratched, or heated while empty for an extended period of time.
- To avoid accidents, do not pour in the direction of people.
- If stirring in the carafe, use only wooden, plastic, or rubber utensils. Do not use metal utensils.
- Follow the above safety precautions carefully to avoid serious burn injuries which may result if breakage occurs while carafe holds heated liquids.
Troubleshooting
| PROBLEM | PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION |
| Filter basket overflows or coffee brews slowly. | • The “BOLD” or 1–4 cup brew option is recommended for brewing decaffeinated coffee. • Excessive amounts of coffee. • Coffee ground too finely (not automatic drip grind). • Carafe not securely placed on keep-warm plate or swivel filter basket holder not closed completely. • Carafe removed during brewing for more than 20 seconds and not placed securely back on keepwarm plate. • Coffee maker needs cleaning. • Coffee grounds between paper filter and filter basket. • Paper filter not open and in proper position. • Press the seamed edges of paper filter before inserting into basket. • Rinse filter basket before inserting paper filter so the edges will remain pressed against the sides of the basket. • Poor-quality paper filter. |
| Coffee not brewing/unit will not turn on. | • Water reservoir is empty. • Unit is unplugged. • Power outage. • Power surge. Unplug; then plug the unit back in. • Clock requires reset after power outage. |
