Before Using Your
Coffeemaker
CAUTION: UNPLUG FROM OUTLET. MAKE SURE POWER
SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION.
Become familiar with parts of the unit.
Clean the carafe, carafe lid and the removable filter basket. Fill the
coffeemaker with the maximum amount of water and follow pro-
cedures for “BREWING” (without coffee). Unplug coffeemaker
and discard the water. Wait 10 minutes to allow heating elements
to cool. Repeat the process once.
CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG, OR COFFEE-
MAKER UNIT IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
Coffee Yield
A 5-ounce cup is the American industry standard and is used by
most coffeemaker manufacturers. Your favorite mug will accom-
modate approximately 2 “cups” (or 10 oz.) of coffee. We do not
recommend preparing less than 4 cups (or 20 oz.) of coffee.
Brewing
1. Plug into a 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
2. Make sure the unit is in the off position; the power light will be
off.
3. Markings on the water chamber indicate the amount of water
required to brew the desired number of cups. Fill the carafe
with cold tap water. Lift up the hinged lid on top of the water
chamber and pour in desired amount of water. Close lid.
Discard any water left in carafe. Snap lid onto carafe. Place
carafe securely onto the warming plate.
4. Lift up the hinged filter lid and slide basket down securely onto
filter holder. Insert a #4 cone paper filter into removable filter
and add coffee grounds. Use
1
⁄
2
-1 tablespoons of coffee for
each cup. Close lid.
