HOw TO USE
To prepare coffee or tea, follow the instructions below.
(To prepare hot cocoa and other beverages, refer to the instructions on page 3 before
beginning.)
The amount of water used with your MyJo
™
coffee maker will determine the strength
of your coffee or tea. For the first use, fill the water reservoir to the fill lines suggested
below:
• For normal strength coffee or tea, fill to the 8-ounce line with water.
• For stronger coffee or tea, fill to the 6-ounce line with water.
• For weaker coffee or tea, fill to the 10-ounce line with water.
For subsequent uses, adjust the strength, if necessary, by simply increasing or decreasing the amount of water as desired.
NOTE:
The fill line markings provide the necessary water to produce 6, 8, and 10 ounces of brewed coffee or tea.
1. Place a single serve pack into the pack holder (Fig. B).
Press down firmly on the single serve pack un-
til the bottom of the pack is punctured.

at least 2¼˝ but not more than 3¾˝ wide. You should also make sure you select a mug which is the appropriate size for the amount
of coffee or tea you are brewing.
