BEFORE FIRST USE

We recommend flushing out both the 

Coffeemaker and Hot Water system before 

first use.

 

Coffeemaker:

 Fill the reservoir with cold 

water and follow the directions for Brewing 
Coffee. 

DO NOT ADD COFFEE!

Hot Water System:

 Fill the reservoir to the 

Max fill line and follow directions for using the 
Hot Water System. 
Once the system flush is complete, your 
Coffee PLUS

 system is ready to brew and 

heat water so you can enjoy Cuisinart at  
its best! 

CHARCOAL WATER FILTER

Your coffeemaker comes with a charcoal water 

filter that eliminates chlorine, bad tastes and 

odours 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 or by calling 

Cuisinart Customer Service.
