MAKING COFFEE WITH
WHOLE BEANS
Follow instructions in Setting Up Your 12-Cup
Coffeemaker on page 8.
1. Insert charcoal water filter
Follow directions for the preparation and insertion of
the filter on page 8.
2. Fill the water reservoir
Open the reservoir cover and pour in water, using
the water level window indicator to measure the
number of cups desired.
NOTE: Do not exceed the 12-cup line. Doing so
could cause carafe to overflow.
3. Add Beans
Lift the grinder basket lid, using the recess on either
side. Fill the basket with the desired quantity of
beans and replace lid.
NOTE: Use 1 level scoop (1 tablespoon) of
whole beans per cup. For 1 to 4 cups, use 1½
level scoops per cup. Do not add more than 14
scoops. This could cause the grinder to mal-
function and/or the coffeemaker to overflow.
4. Insert Coffee Filter
Press the filter basket door release button to open
door and place either a paper filter OR permanent
filter in the basket.
• Paper Filter – Place a basket paper filter in the
basket, making sure the filter is completely open and
touching the side walls and bottom of basket.
• Cuisinart’s Commercial-Style Permanent Filter
– Be sure the filter handle is facing away from the
grinder basket, so it does not interfere with the flow
of ground coffee into the filter basket.
NOTE:
Some ground coffee may flow into
the carafe.
5. Put Filter Basket in Place and Close Filter Door
6. Before brewing
Make sure the glass carafe is in position on the
heater plate and the top cover is closed. Plug the
cord into an electrical outlet.

: This coffeemaker is equipped with a safety
interlock system, which prevents the unit from oper-
ating if the cover is open or the grinder cover is left
out. If you try to turn the unit on with the cover open,
the carafe indicator will flash continuously until the
missing parts are installed and you close the lid.
If you open the cover during the grinding process,
