Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1
Lift and open the filter basket lid. For your convenience,
you can lift out the removable filter basket.
2
Place a 10–12 cup paper cone-style filter or a permanent
filter into the removable filter basket. (Figure 2)
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
Be sure the filter is properly centered and all the way down in the filter basket.
5
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 show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding
desired number of cups. 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 as well as steam.
6
Pour the water into the water reservoir. Do not fill past the “MAX line” or water will
flow out of the overfill hole in the back of the water reservoir. Close the lid and place
the empty decanter onto the warming plate.
NOTE:
Make sure the decanter is fully placed on the warming plate or the water and the
grounds will overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or
damage to property.
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of damaging the decanter and/or the risk of personal injury,
do not add cold water to the decanter if the decanter is already hot. Allow the decanter to
cool before using.

coffee hot for 2 hours, then automatically shut off.
While the coffee is brewing, the Pause ’n Serve feature
allows you to sneak a cup of coffee from the decanter.
Replace the decanter on the warming plate within
30 seconds to prevent overflow and possible injury.
To turn the coffeemaker off, push the AUTO/ON/OFF
button until the light goes off. (fig 3)

To enjoy a more full flavored cup of coffee, press the
STRONG BREW button once. The STRONG BREW blue
light will turn on. The coffeemaker will remain in
the STRONG BREW you have selected until you change it back to REGULAR strength by
pressing the STRONG BREW button or until you unplug the machine (figure 4).
