• Coffeemaker must be left to cool down for approximately 10
minutes before adding more water.
• WARNING: Do not remove bottom cover. No user serviceable
parts inside. Repair must be done by authorized service per-
sonnel only.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk
of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware
stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an exten-
sion cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also the
cord must be: (1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V, and at
least 13 A., 1625 W., and (2) the cord must be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over accidentally.
POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade
is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of elec-
trical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other
appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be
operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.
This product is for household use only.

Before Using Your
Coffeemaker
CAUTION: UNPLUG FROM OUTLET. MAKE SURE POWER
BUTTON IS IN OFF POSITION.
Become familiar with parts of the unit.
Clean the carafe and lid, removable filter basket. Fill the cof-
feemaker with the maximum amount of water and turn the unit on.
Follow procedures for “BREWING” (without coffee). Unplug cof-
feemaker 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 about 2 cups (or 10 oz.) of coffee. We do not recommend
preparing less than 4 cups (or 20 oz.) of coffee.
Brewing
1. Push excess cord into cord storage in base of unit. Plug into
a 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
2. Make sure the unit is in the OFF position; the indicator light
will be off.
3. Markings on the water level window indicate the level of water
required to brew the desired number of cups. Remove the
snap-on lid by gently pulling up. Fill the carafe with cold tap
water. Snap the lid back into position.
NOTE: Brewing less than 4 cups is not recommended.
4. Lift up the hinged lid on the top of the unit and slowly pour
water into the water chamber.
5. Insert a #4 cone paper filter into removable filter basket and
add coffee grounds. Use approximately 1 measuring spoon of
grounds for every cup of coffee. Close lid.

6. Make sure that the carafe with lid is properly seated on the
warming plate. Press the power button in to turn power ON.
The indicator light will turn on.
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is com-
plete, simply remove carafe from warming plate. Dripping will
automatically cease. Return carafe to position on warming
plate within 30 seconds; dripping will resume. If the carafe is
not returned to the warming plate, the coffee may overflow
from the filter basket.
NOTE: To keep coffee hot, return carafe to the warming plate
after serving. The warming plate will automatically keep ideal
serving temperature as long as the coffeemaker is on. Do not
let empty carafe remain on heated warming plate.
8. Press the power button to turn the unit OFF when not in use.
The indicator light will go off.
9. Unplug and allow to cool for 10 minutes between cycles.
Helpful Hints for Brewing
• The markings on the water window reflect the quantity of fresh
water to be used. The quantity of brewed coffee is less because
the coffee grounds absorb water.
• Never use hot or carbonated water. This will damage the appli-
ance.
• Never pour milk, liquid coffee, tea, or other liquid, except water, into
the water chamber.
Care and Cleaning
1. Make sure power button is in OFF position.
2. Unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
3. Open hinged lid on top of unit and remove filter basket.
Discard coffee grounds and paper filter. Wash and dry all
removable parts. Replace basket by fitting notch in groove of
unit.
4. Clean inside of lid and the outside of the coffeemaker with a
damp cloth.
CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR COFFEE-

MAKER UNIT IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
Descaling
We recommend you clean your coffeemaker once a month with a
solution of vinegar and water. Mineral deposits from tap water can
form a coating in the coffeemaker, causing slower brewing time
and possibly an off flavor in the coffee.
1. Pour 1⁄2 cup vinegar into the carafe, and add cold water up to
the 4 cup mark. Pour into the water reservoir.
2. Place a clean paper filter in the filter basket and close.
3. Follow brewing instructions, (without coffee.)
4. When the unit has finished brewing, press in the power button
to turn the power OFF. Carefully remove the carafe and place
on a heat resistant surface. Wait 15 minutes and pour the
solution back into the coffee maker.
5. Turn unit ON again. Allow solution to empty into carafe; turn
unit OFF. After dripping stops, discard solution.
6. Allow coffeemaker to cool 10 minutes. Rinse it out by brewing
a carafe full of cold water, (without coffee). Repeat process.
7. At the end of the cycle, press in the power button to turn
power OFF. Discard the water and paper filter.
8. Wash and dry all removable parts.
9. When coffeemaker has cooled, wipe exterior with a damp
cloth.
Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above
cleaning must be performed by an authorized service center.
