Coffee Filters  
Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores and  
where coffee makers are sold. Standard #2 filters should be used.  
The use of basket-style paper filters is not recommended, since they  
do not conform to the shape of the Filter Basket and may cause coffee  
to back up and spill over during brewing.  
Before You Use Your Coffee Maker  
Before preparing coffee in your new Coffee Maker, thoroughly clean  
the Carafe, Carafe Lid and Removable Cone Filter Basket in hot, sudsy  
water. Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts. Clean the inside  
of the Coffee Maker by brewing two full Carafes of tap water (see  
“Brewing Instructions” below).  
NOTE: At the end of first cycle, turn Coffee Maker off and wait ten  
minutes. Turn unit on and brew second Carafe of water.  
Brewing Instructions  
1. Plug Coffee Maker into any 120 V AC electrical outlet.  
2. Fill Carafe with cold tap water and pour into Water Chamber.  
Markings on the Carafe indicate level of water required to brew  
desired number of cups. No less than two cups is recommended.  
NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the  
amount of water placed into Coffee Maker, since about 10% is  
absorbed by coffee grounds and paper filter.  
3. Place a #2 paper cone-shaped filter in Removable Cone Filter  
Basket. Replace Removable Cone Filter Basket in the Swing-Out  
Filter Holder. Measure one level tablespoon of drip or regular  
grind coffee for each cup of coffee desired. For stronger or milder  
coffee, adjust amount of coffee to suit your taste.  
4. Return Swing-Out Filter Holder to the closed position.  
5. Place Carafe on Warming Plate.  
6. Switch Power Select Button to ON (I).

Brewing Instructions (Cont.)  
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is completed,  
simply remove Carafe from Warming Plate. Dripping will automat-  
ically cease. Return Carafe to position on Warming Plate within 20  
seconds; dripping will resume.  
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait about one minute until  
the brew dripping from the Filter Holder into the Carafe has  
stopped. Carafe Lid should be kept in place to facilitate safe  
serving and help keep coffee at proper serving temperature.  
9. To keep coffee hot, return Carafe to the Warming Plate after serv-  
ing. The Warming Plate will automatically cycle to maintain ideal  
serving temperature as long as the Coffee Maker is ON.  
10. Switch Coffee Maker to OFF (O) when Carafe is empty or when  
unit is not in use.  
11. To brew another Carafe of coffee, turn unit OFF and wait 10  
minutes to allow heating element to cool.  
IMPORTANT: If unit is not allowed to cool before immediate repeat-  
ed use, water placed in Water Chamber may become overheated and  
a spray of steam could be released from opening, creating a risk  
of burns.  
Brewing a Second Pot of Coffee  
As mentioned above, it is recommended that the Coffee Maker should  
be in OFF (O) position for 10 minutes between cycles, in order to  
allow unit to cool. While unit is in OFF position, rinse Carafe in water  
and dispose of filter and coffee grounds.  
Repeat brewing procedure.  
Hints for Great Tasting Coffee  
A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee.  
Regular cleaning, as specified in “Care and Cleaning” section on  
page 7–8 is highly recommended.  
Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.

Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller extrac-  
tion 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 a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened,  
keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.  
For optimum coffee, buy whole beans and grind them finely just  
before brewing.  
Do not re-use 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. Overextraction  
may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee  
Maker.  
User Maintenance Instructions  
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user  
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing  
requiring disassembly must be performed by a qualified appliance  
repair technician.  
Care and Cleaning  
Always make sure Coffee Maker is unplugged and Warming Plate is  
cool before attempting to clean. After daily use, the Carafe should be  
washed in hot, sudsy water. Wipe exterior with a damp cloth to remove  
superficial stains. For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad. Do  
not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.  
Special cleaning of your Coffee Maker is recommended at least once a  
month, depending on 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 every two weeks, since minerals in  
water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen  
brew time.

Care and Cleaning (Cont.)  
1. Fill Carafe with one part white vinegar to three parts cold water.  
Pour water and vinegar solution into the Water Chamber.  
2. Place a clean #2 paper filter in the Removable Cone Filter Basket.  
Replace Removable Cone Filter Basket in the Swing-Out Filter  
Holder and swing to closed position. Place Carafe on Warming  
Plate. Switch Power Select Button to ON (I). During cleaning,  
more steam will occur than during normal brewing.  
3. KEEP THE COFFEE MAKER ON UNTIL CARAFE IS HALF  
FULL. Switch Power Select Button to OFF (O). When liquid stops  
dripping from Filter Holder into the Carafe, remove the Basket  
and Carafe and allow liquid to cool in the Carafe for 10 minutes.  
When cooled, pour liquid back into the Water Chamber.  
4. Replace basket and return Carafe to Warming Plate.  
5. Switch Power Select Button to ON (I). Repeat procedure, allowing  
all the cleaning solution to empty into the Carafe. After dripping  
has stopped, discard contents of Carafe.  
6. After allowing Coffee Maker to cool for 10 minutes, rinse it out by  
brewing a Carafe full of cold water. Make sure to insert a clean #2  
paper filter into the Filter Basket before brewing.  
7. At end of brew cycle, switch Power Select Button to OFF (O).  
Discard water in the Carafe. Wash Carafe, Carafe Lid and  
Removable Cone Filter Basket in hot sudsy water. Dry parts.
