Brewing - Immediate Start
1. Push excess cord into cord storage in base of unit.
2. Make sure the unit is in the OFF position; the indicator light will
be off.
3. Markings on the water level window indicate the level of water
required to brew the desired number of cups. Remove the
snap-on lid by gently pulling up. Fill the carafe with cold tap
water. Snap the lid back into position.
NOTE: Brewing less than 4 cups is not recommended.
4. Lift up the hinged lid on the top of the unit and slowly pour
water into the water chamber opening behind the filter basket.
5. Insert a #4 cone paper filter into removable filter basket and
add coffee grounds. Use approximately 1 measuring spoon of
grounds for every cup of coffee. Close lid.
6. Make sure that the carafe with lid is properly seated on the
warming plate. Press the ON/OFF button twice. The indicator
light will turn on. (You do not have to set the clock before
making coffee, just press ON.)
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is
complete, simply remove carafe from warming plate. Dripping
will automatically cease. Return carafe to position on warming
plate within 30 seconds; dripping will resume. If the carafe is
not returned to the warming plate, the coffee may overflow
from the filter basket.
NOTE: To keep coffee hot, return carafe to the warming plate
after serving. The warming plate will automatically keep ideal
serving temperature as long as the coffeemaker is on. Do not
let empty carafe remain on heated warming plate.
8. Press the ON/OFF button again to turn the unit OFF when not in
use. When the brewing cycle is over, the coffemaker will
automatically shut off after two hours. The indicator light will go off.
9. Unplug and allow to cool for 10 minutes between cycles.
