there could still be hot water in
the filter holder passing through
the ground coffee. This can take 1
to 3 minutes depending on how
much coffee you used and how
fine the coffee was ground.

5. Making Coffee

Please follow the steps described in
chapter 4.

Filling the Water Tank

See chapter 4.2.

Stainless steel thermal carafe:

When you use the thermal carafe for
filling the water tank, the inside of the
carafe will be cold from the cold
water. We highly recommend rinsing
the carafe with hot water. This will
increase the coffee temperature and
will keep the coffee hot longer.

5a. Using the GoldTone Filter

A size 4 GoldTone filter comes with
the machine. It sits in the Filter Holder.

Attention:

Coffee flows slower through

a GoldTone Filter than through paper
filters. Please see the chart in chapter
5c for maximum coffee amounts.

5b. Using Filter Paper

Use size 4 paper only. Always fold the
bottom and side crimps over for a
proper fit (see Fig. 5). Do not use a
filter paper inside a GoldTone Filter!

5c. How Much Coffee?

A coffee scoop comes with your coffee
maker. We recommend using one
level scoop of coffee per cup. If you
like your coffee extremely strong
never use more coffee than the
amounts indicated in the chart shown.

Using more coffee can result in an
overflow of ground coffee, above the
filter, blocking the drip stop function
and causing a mess on your counter.

5d. Using the Stainless Steel Carafe

For best coffee temperature pre-warm
the carafe by rinsing it with hot water.
Always make sure carafe is completely
empty. Place the lid on top of the
carafe as shown in Fig. 10 (pay atten-
tion to the position of the black dot
on the lid) and turn clockwise until the
lid is completely closed and the dot
points towards the handle (Fig. 11).
This is the brewing position.

Caution

Make sure the lid is

not

in the pouring

position (Fig. 12). This could result in
the Filter Holder popping up. The drip
stop will not work and hot coffee
could overflow from the filter holder.

Attention:

Please note that the lid

must always be on the carafe and
closed (Fig. 11) during brewing to
activate the drip stop.

If you lose the

lid, you cannot brew coffee.

Please

call 1-800-767-3554 to order a new
lid or use the enclosed mail order form.

5e. Turning the Coffee Maker On

Push the On/Off button (Fig. 2, N).
The red light will illuminate, indicating
that the brewing process is starting.

Caution:

Never open the water

container lid during brewing.

5f. Serving Coffee

Brewing time for a full pot of coffee
takes just about 7 minutes.

MT600 (Stainless steel carafe):

When all the water is passed through,
the red indicator light remains on for
approx. two minutes then turns off.
The machine is now off.

Remove the carafe from the platform.

Turn the lid counterclockwise until the
black dot is over the pouring spout
(Fig. 12). You can now pour coffee.
After serving make sure to close the
lid again to prevent heat from escaping
from the carafe.
