Brewing Instructions

There are 2 level settings available to accommodate different cup sizes: If you are brewing into a smaller cup, you can raise the drip tray to the second setting by removing it from the base and inserting it into the designated posts.

User Maintenance Instructions

This appliance requires little maintenance and contains no user-serviceable parts. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than cleaning must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.

Care & Cleaning Instructions

1. Always make sure the Coffee Maker is unplugged before attempting to clean it.
2. Remove the permanent coffee filter and filter basket, discard used coffee grounds or loose tea and rinse both pieces thoroughly after every use. The permanent filter and filter basket are top-rack dishwasher safe.
3. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dust and superficial stains. For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad with a non-abrasive cleanser. Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
4. Dry and replace disassembled parts. Make sure the removable filter holder drops down and is properly seated into the housing.
5. Close the lid.
6. Never immerse the unit in water or any other liquid.

Descaling

It is recommended to perform a special cleaning of your Coffee Maker at least once a month, depending on the frequency of use and quality of water used in the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following cleaning procedure should be performed more regularly. Excessive accumulation of mineral deposits from hard water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen brew time. Excessive steaming or prolonged brew time are signs that cleaning is needed.

1. Fill a 14 oz mug with 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar solution into the water tank.
2. Center the empty mug on the drip tray under the nozzle.
3. Turn the switch to ON to start the brew cycle, allowing all of the solution to drip into the mug.
4. When liquid stops dripping from the filter holder into the mug, turn the switch to OFF, remove the mug and allow the liquid to cool for 15 minutes. When cooled, repeat steps 1–4 a second time.
5. Allow the Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, then rinse by brewing a full mug of cold water. Insert the clean permanent coffee filter into the removable filter basket before brewing. This step may need to be repeated in order to remove any remaining vinegar taste.
6. At the end of the brew cycle, set the power switch to the OFF position, and discard the water in the mug. Wash the mug, permanent coffee filter, and removable filter holder in warm, soapy water and dry the parts thoroughly.
7. When the Coffee Maker has cooled, wipe the exterior with a dry cloth.

Storing Instructions

1. Unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely.
2. Store the Coffee Maker in its box or in a cool, dry place.
3. Never store a unit while it is still hot or still plugged in.
4. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance.
5. Do not put any stress on the cord where it enters the unit, as it could cause the cord to fray.

Hints for Great Tasting Coffee

• A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great-tasting coffee. Regular cleaning, as described in the Care & Cleaning Instructions and Descaling sections of this Instruction Manual is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.
• Finer grinds promote fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grind will require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
• Store coffee in an airtight container and in a cool, dry place.
• For optimum coffee flavor, buy whole beans and grind them finely just before brewing.
• Do not reuse coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee is due to the extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used. Over-extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee Maker.
