Restarting the process will not affect cof-

fee results. If you do not want the grinder to 

come on again, press the “Grind Off” button 

before pressing the “On” button. Once the lid 

is closed, the beeping will stop, and the grind 

and brew process will start again from the 

beginning.

Return the carafe lid to the carafe. To lock the 

lid, turn in the direction of the “lock” arrow 

until it fits tightly on carafe and arrow lines up 

in the centre of the pour spout. This ensures 

lid is closed and in the proper position for 

brewing and pouring.
Make sure you have replaced the thermal  

carafe in its position on the resting plate  

and have placed a filter in the filter basket. 

Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. “12:00” 

will appear until you set the time. This will not 

interfere with the operation of the coffeemaker. 

To set clock, see the “Programming Your 

Coffeemaker” section, page 8.

6. power unit

a) Immediate grinding and brewing: 
Press the ON button. The indicator will  

light and the process will begin.
b) Programmed Brewing: 
Press the “Program” button. The indicator 

will light and the display will show the pro-

grammed time for as long as the button is 

depressed. The display reverts back to time 

of day once the button is released. To set the 

programmed time, see “Programming Your 

Coffeemaker” on page 8.

7. Select Cups Setting 

The 1-4 cup setting button is used when  

you make small amounts of coffee. Normal 

coffeemakers will produce a colder batch 

of coffee when smaller amounts are made, 

because the heater doesn't have enough time 

to properly ‘warm up’ to heat a small amount.

The 1-4 setting basically ‘double heats’ the 

water, making your smaller amount as piping 

hot as a full pot would be.

To use:

 When making a smaller amount,  

press the 1-4 button on the control panel  

after turning on the unit. The indicator light will 

illuminate. Note that the 1-4 button can be set 

at any time.

8. During and After Brewing

The Brew Pause feature allows you to remove 

the carafe during mid-brew. The brewing pro-

cess does not stop during this period; only 

the flow of coffee from the basket stops. 

Do 

not remove the carafe for longer than 30 

seconds or the coffee may overflow the 

basket.

 While we offer this feature, we do not 

recommend that you pour coffee before the 

cycle has reached completion, since the cof-

fee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a  

flavour profile which is very different from the 

coffee made at the end of the cycle. Removing 

a cup during the brewing cycle will alter the  

flavour of the finished pot.
Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir 

it before serving to blend the flavours. The    

coffee at the bottom of the carafe will be 

somewhat stronger than the coffee at the top.
When the brewing cycle has been completed,  

five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue  

to stream from the filter for several seconds.
After brewing, the unit will automatically shut 

itself off. The thermal carafe will keep the  

coffee hot for hours.

Bottom of Thermal Carafe is hot to touch 

for several minutes after brewing.  

use caution.

The brew-through, pour-through lid allows  

coffee to drip from coffeemaker through the 

closed lid. When brewing is complete, the  

lid seals itself so air stays out and coffee  

freshness and temperature are preserved. No 

need to turn or adjust the lid before pouring.
