Water Filtration System
(Models ECX30 and EXC33 Only)
Congratulations, your coffeemaker includes the
MR. COFFEE
®
water filtration system! This carbon-based
water filtration system improves the taste of your
coffee by removing 97% of the chlorine from the
water that you use to brew your coffee.
To insert the water filtration system into your
coffeemaker please follow these steps.
1) Place water filtration disk in the center of the
permanent filter that was included with your
coffeemaker.
2) Place permanent filter with the water filtration disk
on top of it into your removable filter basket.
3) Reattach the removable filter basket on to your
coffeemaker.
4) Close the brew basket to ensure that the filter has
been properly inserted. If the brew basket does
not close properly then repeat Steps 1 – 3 again.
Note: When you are ready to brew coffee. Simply
remove the water filtration disk and insert the
desired amount of coffee into your permanent
filter. Then place the water filtration disk back
on top of the permanent filter and close the
brew basket. Your water filtration disk will
need to be replaced once every 30 days
(approximately 30 brew cycles). Replacement
water filtration disks can be purchased through
your local retailer or by calling 1-800-MR COFFEE
(1-800-672-6333).
