Pause and Serve
Using the pause and serve feature: If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before the brew cycle is completed,
simplyremove carafe from the warming plate. Dripping will automatically cease. Return the carafe onto the
warming plate; dripping will resume.
CAUTION: To prevent injury when utilizing pause and serve feature, replace carafe within 30 seconds after
removing during the brewing process.
1. After approximately 2 cups of coffee have been brewed, the carafe may be slowly removed and the
coffee will stop dripping.
2. The ow valve is located on the bottom of the lter holder and is activated when the carafe is removed.
This design makes it possible for you to remove the carafe and pour a cup of coffee before the entire
carafe is brewed.
IMPORTANT: When replacing the lter holder, the ow valve must be properly inserted into the front
hole of the machine, so that it can be seen as it sits on the top of the carafe lid.
3. When using this feature, make sure that the carafe is replaced under the lter holder within 30 seconds
toprevent overow.
Brewing a Second Pot of Coffee
To brew another pot of coffee, press the ON/OFF button to turn the coffee maker off. Wait 15 minutes to allow
theheating element to cool. Remove and dispose of the used coffee grounds; then rinse the carafe and lter
basket with water and repeat the brewing procedure detailed in the “BREWING COFFEE” section.
NOTE: If you do not allow the appliance to cool completely before reuse, water in the water reservoir may
overheat, causing steam to be released. This could result in burns and/or other personal injury.
Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning, as described in
theCleaning & Maintenance Instructions and Descaling sections of this Instruction Manual is
highlyrecommended.
Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.
Finer grinds, such as drip coffee, promote fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee.
Regulargrind will require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a ner grind.
Store coffee in a cool, dry place.
For optimum coffee avor, buy whole beans and grind them nely just before brewing.
Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee avor.
Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak avor immediately after brewing.
Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee is due to the extraction of oil from
the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used.
Over extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee Maker.
User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Any servicing requiring
disassembly other than cleaning must be performed by a qualied appliance repair technician.
Cleaning and Maintenance
CAUTION: Be sure to unplug this appliance before cleaning. To protect against electrical shock, do not
immerse cord, plug or unit in water or other liquid. After each use, always make sure plug is rst removed
from wall outlet.
1. Clean lter basket, lter, carafe and carafe lid after each use in hot, sudsy water.
2. Wipe the appliance’s exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove stains.
3. Water droplets may build up in the area above the lter and drip onto the appliance base during
brewing. To control the dripping, wipe off the area with a clean, dry cloth after each use of the product.
4. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the warming plate. Never use an abrasive cleaner to clean it.
Descaling
Special cleaning of your Coffee Maker is recommended at least once a month, depending on frequency of use
and quality of water used in the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following cleaning procedure
should be performed every 2 weeks, since minerals in water can detract from the avor of the coffee and
possibly lengthen brew time.
1. Fill carafe with 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar solution into the
waterreservoir.
2. Brew the vinegar solution until the carafe is half full.
NOTE: During cleaning, more steam will occur than during normal coffee brewing.
3. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the Coffee Maker OFF. When liquid stops dripping from lter holder
into the carafe, remove the carafe and allow liquid to cool for 15 minutes. When cooled, lift lid and pour
liquid back into the water reservoir.
4. Close the lid. Return carafe to the warming plate.
5. BREW THE VINEGAR SOLUTION again, allowing all the cleaning solution to empty into the carafe. After
dripping has stopped, discard contents of the carafe.
6. Allow Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, rinse by brewing a carafe full of cold water. Insert the clean
permanent coffee lter into the removable lter holder before brewing.
7. Repeat until no yellow liquid comes out and until no vinegar odor is left.
8. At end of brew cycle, press the ON/OFF button to turn the Coffee Maker OFF. Discard water in the
carafe. Wash carafe, permanent coffee lter, and removable lter holder in hot sudsy water. Dry parts
thoroughly.
NOTE: carafe, permanent coffee lter, and removable lter holder are top-rack dishwasher safe. The
carafe lid is removable for easy cleaning.
9. When Coffee Maker has cooled, wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
