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.

• 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
