Coffee will continue to stream from the 
filter for several seconds.

 

 

Stir coffee before serving to blend the  
flavors. The coffee at the bottom of the 
carafe will be somewhat stronger than the  
coffee at the top.

and directly after brewing. Wait at least 10 
minutes before opening.

CHARCOAL WATER FILTER

your coffeemaker comes with a 
charcoal water filter that eliminates 
chlorine, bad tastes and odors from  
tap water.

Inserting the Water Filter

• Remove the filter from polybag and 

soak it, fully immersed, in cold tap 
water for 15 minutes.

• lift the water filter holder out of the 

water reservoir (see diagram, page 5).

• press down on the filter compartment 

and pull toward you to open.

• place filter into the holder and snap  

it closed. Be careful – improper 
placement can tear the filter skin.

• Flush filter by running cold tap water 

through holes in bottom of 
compartment for 10 seconds. 

• Allow the filter to drain completely.
• Slide the water filter holder back into 

the channel in the water reservoir, 
pushing it down to the base of the 
unit.

nOTe: We recommend 
changing the water filter 
every 60 days or after  
60 uses, and more  
often if you have  
hard water. 
Replacement filters 
can be purchased in 
stores, by calling 
Cuisinart customer 
service, or at 
www.cuisinart.
com.

Brew Pause Feature

This feature interrupts the flow of coffee 

from the basket to let you pour that first 

cup mid-brew. Because the flavor profile 

of coffee brewed at the start of a cycle 

differs from that brewed towards the 

end, be aware that using this feature will 

weaken the flavor strength of the 

finished pot.

nOTe: Removing carafe for more than 

20 seconds may cause filter basket to 

overflow.
