B. Water Filtration System
(May not be included in this product)
Using the Mr. Coffee
®
carbon-based water filter in the Mr.
Coffee
®
coffeemaker during the brewing
process helps remove up to 97% of the
chlorine from the water and improves the
taste of your coffee.
First, locate the MR. COFFEE
®
Filtration
Friendly Friendly symbol on the bottom
of your filter basket. If you do not see this
symbol, please call 1-800-672-6333.
To use the water filtration system in your MR.
COFFEE
®
Coffeemaker, please follow these steps:
1. Insert filter disk into frame by sliding into slots
on bottom of frame.
2. Align the red indicator on the frame to the
letter that corresponds with the month that
you are using the disk for the first time. This
serves to remind you to change the disk
every month (approx. 30 brewing cycles). To
change the disk, remove the used disk, insert
new disk into the frame.
NOTE:
For optimum results, use the water
filtration system with a permanent filter.
3. Rinse the water filter in fresh water before
first use.
4. Follow
Adding Water and Coffee
instructions.
5. When you are done brewing your
coffee, rinse the water filter with
fresh water. Do not put your water
filter in the dishwasher.
Replacement water filtration disks can be
purchased online at www.mrcoffee.com, at a local retailer, or
by calling 1-800-MRCOFFEE (1-800-672-6333) in the U.S. or
1-800-667-8623 in Canada.

C. Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1. Open the brew basket lid. For your
convenience, you can lift out the
removable filter basket.
2. Place a MR. COFFEE
®
brand 10-12
cup paper basket-style filter or a MR.
COFFEE
®
permanent filter into the
removable filter basket (Figure 5).
NOTE:
If using paper filters, it is
important that the sides of the filter fit
flush against the side of the filter basket. If filter
collapse occurs, dampen the filter before placing in the filter
basket and adding ground coffee and water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake to
level the coffee. See the
Suggested Coffee Measurement
Chart
.
4. After following instructions in the
Water Filtration
System
, place the MR. COFFEE
®
water filter in the basket,
making sure that the side marked “this side up” faces you
and that the water filter is level.
5. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly centered
and all the way down in the brew basket and close the lid.
6. Fill the decanter with cold, fresh water to the desired
capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces) For easy and accurate
filling, the water markings on the glass decanter and on the
water window show the amount of water needed to make
the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill past
the “12 cup MAX line” or water will flow out of the overfill
hole in the back of the coffeemaker.
The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less
than the amount of water poured in the water reservoir.
This is due to the minimum absorption of water by the
coffee grounds.
7. Lift the pour through reservoir lid and pour the water
into the water reservoir. Close the lid and place the
