Before Using For The First Time

CAUTION: 

To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the Coffee Maker or allow 

power cord to come into contact with water or other liquids.

1.  Remove all packing material and labels from the inside and outside of the Coffee Maker. 

Place the unit on a flat, clean surface. 

2.  Before preparing coffee, thoroughly clean the glass carafe with lid, removable filter 

holder and permanent coffee filter in hot, sudsy water. Rinse and dry.  
Replace disassembled parts. See Care & Cleaning Instructions for a detailed description.

 NOTE:

 The permanent filter and removable filter holder are all top rack dishwasher 

safe. The reusable scoop is also dishwasher safe  but it should be placed in the machine 
alongside the cutlery.  

3.  Clean the inside of the Coffee Maker by brewing 2 full carafes of tap water  

(see “setting up the machine”). Do not add the permanent coffee filter or ground coffee 
for this initial cleaning. 

 

NOTE:

 At the end of the first cycle, allow 15 minutes for the unit to cool. 

4.  Brew a second carafe of fresh water. 

5.  Wait an additional 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool before brewing your first carafe  

of coffee.

 Setting Up The Machine

IMPORTANT: 

Before brewing, always check to make sure water level is past the MIN line 

and add water if needed. Never exceed the MAX fill line. 

NOTE: 

The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the amount of water placed 

into the water reservoir; as much as 10% is absorbed by coffee grounds and filter.

1.  Lift to open the Coffee Maker lid. Fill carafe with cold water and pour into water reservoir 

at the back of the unit. The stepped water level indicator can be easily viewed inside unit. 

2.  Place empty carafe on the warming plate. 

3.  Place the permanent filter in the removable filter holder. Measure 2 level tablespoons or 

1 scoop with the provided scooper cup, of drip or regular ground coffee for each cup of 
coffee desired. For stronger or milder coffee, adjust amount of coffee to suit your taste.
