Water Filtration System:
(Not Included. Available at your favorite retailer)
Your coffeemaker has been designed to use the MR. COFFEE
®
water filtration system.
This carbon-based water filter improves the taste of your coffee by removing up to
97% of the chlorine from the water you may use to brew your coffee.
First, look for the MR. COFFEE
®
Filtration Friendly symbol
on the bottom of your
filter basket.
To use the water filtration system in your
Sunbeam
®
Coffeemaker, please follow
these steps:
1. 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 (ap-
prox. 30 brewing cycles). (Figure 2)
note:
For optimum results, use the water filtration
system with a permanent filter.
2. Rinse the water filter in fresh water before first use.
3. Follow
“Adding Water and Ground Coffee”
Instructions in the next section.
4. When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse
the water filter with fresh water. Do not put your
water filter in the dishwasher.
To replace the water filter disks:
twist the
gray disk cover from your water filtration system.
Remove the used disk. Insert the new disk into the
frame and twist the cover back into place.
