Before Using Your
Programmable Coffeemaker
WARNING: To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do not
immerse cord, plug or appliance in water or any other liquid.
1. Before preparing coffee in your new Coffeemaker, thoroughly
clean the Removable Water Reservoir, Thermal Carafe,
Carafe Lid, Removable Filter Holder and Permanent Filter
Basket in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Replace clean disassembled parts.
NOTE: Do not dry the inside of the Removable Water
Reservoir with a cloth because this will leave a residue of
lint and may clog your Coffeemaker.
2. To replace the Removable Filter Holder into the Coffeemaker’s
Cavity, rotate the front tab so that it faces the front right of the
Coffeemaker. The Pause and Pour Lever, located on the
bottom of the Filter Holder, sits down into the back of the
Cavity; the single clip will be at the front of the unit. Press the
Filter Holder down into place. The Lid will be fully closed when
properly assembled.
3. Clean the inside of the Coffeemaker by brewing 2 full Carafes
of clean, cool water (see Brewing Instructions). Do not place
the Permanent Filter Basket or coffee in the Removable Filter
Basket for this initial cleaning.
NOTE: At the end of the first brewing cycle, press the
ON/OFF/AUTO Button to turn the Coffeemaker OFF and
wait 10 minutes for the appliance to cool. Empty Carafe and
replace onto Base Plate. Add fresh cool water to the Water
Reservoir. Press the ON/OFF/AUTO Button twice to turn the
Coffeemaker ON. The blue BREW Light will illuminate; brew a
second Carafe. Discard water. Your Coffeemaker is now ready
for use.

Permanent Filter Basket
Your Coffeemaker comes with a Permanent Filter Basket,
eliminating the need for disposable paper filters. After daily use,
the Removable Permanent Filter should be washed in hot,
sudsy water. Rinse thoroughly.
Brewing Instructions
1. Place the Thermal Coffeemaker on a flat, level surface.
2. Open the Filter Holder Lid using the lip located on top of the
Coffeemaker. (See Figure 1).
3. If the Removable Filter Holder is not already in position,
replace following the instructions outlined in step 2 in the
“Before Using Your Programmable Coffeemaker” section of
this Use and Care Guide. Place the Permanent Filter Basket
into the Filter Holder. The notched cutout of the Permanent
Filter Basket will face the right side of the Holder as it slips
into position. Fold the Handle down.
4. Add 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of drip or regular grind coffee for
each cup of coffee desired into the Filter Basket.
5. You may choose to brew your coffee with a stronger BREW
STRENGTH. To do so, turn the Brew Strength Control Dial
located on the top of the unit. The
arrows indicate a stronger or lighter
brew strength. (See Figure 4.)
NOTE: Additionally, to further brew a
stronger or milder coffee, adjust
amount of coffee to suit your taste.
NOTE: We recommend using coffee
ground specifically for automatic drip
coffeemakers.

6. Close the Filter Holder Lid. Make sure it fits snugly and shuts
fully against the Coffeemaker.
7. The Removable Water Reservoir is transparent so you can
monitor the water level. Grasp the Handle on the back of the
Water Reservoir and pull out and then up to remove it from
the Base.
8. Add fresh, cool water to the Removable Water Reservoir.
Close the Water Reservoir Lid and replace the Water
Reservoir onto the Base. Fit the Water Reservoir’s extended
water nozzle over and down and into the large center

opening at the back of the Base. The Water Reservoir will
snap into place as you press it firmly against the body of the
machine. Make sure the Removable Water Reservoir is
correctly positioned and in place before starting.
9. To replace the Carafe Lid, twist it until the Lid Lever is
opposite the Spout and sits directly over the Handle of the
Carafe. Make sure the Carafe Lid is properly secured onto
the Carafe. Place the Carafe onto the Base.
IMPORTANT: Always use fresh, cool water in your appliance.
Warm water or other liquids, except as listed in the Care and
Cleaning Instructions, may cause damage to the appliance.
NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the
amount of water placed into the Coffeemaker, since about
10% is absorbed by the coffee grounds and filter.
10. Locate the Cord Storage area at the bottom back of the unit.
Extend cord, fitting it into the bottom cord notch, and plug
the unit into a 120V, AC electrical outlet. The second hand
and AM/PM display on the bottom of the blue-lit analog
Clock will begin to flash. (See Figure 3.) Set the Clock
following the instructions below.

To Start Brewing Coffee Immediately
1. For optimal holding temperature, rinse the inside of Thermal
Carafe with warm water before brewing; empty and make sure
the Carafe Lid Lever is at the back of the Carafe and the Lid is
properly secured. Place Carafe onto Base Plate, making sure it
is firmly set against the silver Auto Pause and Pour Assembly
of the Coffeemaker. (See Figure 1.)
2. Check to make sure the Removable Water Reservoir is filled;
correctly positioned and in place before starting.
3. Press the ON/OFF/AUTO Button. The blue BREW Light will
illuminate as the Coffeemaker begins brewing. Once the brew-
ing cycle is complete, the Coffeemaker will turn itself OFF.
To Start Brewing Coffee at the
Programmed Time
1. At the programmed time, the Coffeemaker will turn itself ON
automatically. The blue BREW Light will illuminate as the
Coffeemaker begins brewing. Coffee will begin flowing into
the Thermal Carafe. Once the brewing cycle is complete, the
Coffeemaker will turn itself OFF.
NOTE: The amount of coffee in the Carafe may be slightly less
than the amount of water placed in the Water Reservoir, since
some of the water is absorbed by the coffee grounds.
Auto Pause and Pour Feature
1. To pour a cup of coffee before the brew cycle is complete,
simply remove the Carafe from the Base Plate and pour.
Brewing will continue but dripping will automatically pause.
Return the Carafe to the Base Plate within 1 minute; dripping
will resume.
NOTE: The Thermal Carafe must be placed and centered onto the
Base Plate, the Carafe should rest firmly against the silver Auto
Pause and Pour Assembly of the Coffeemaker (see Figure 1) to
allow proper operation of the Auto Pause and Pour Feature.
2. Remove the Thermal Carafe from the Base Plate. Always keep
the Carafe Lid on the Carafe when pouring the coffee. Depress
the Thumb Lever and pour.
CAUTION: To avoid injury when using the Auto Pause and
Pour Feature while the Coffeemaker is still brewing, the
Thermal Carafe with Lid must be replaced on the Base
Plate, under the Filter Holder within 1 minute to prevent
the Filter Basket from overflowing.

To Brew a Second Pot of Coffee
1. To brew a second pot of coffee, wait 10 minutes and allow
the Coffeemaker to cool. Empty used coffee grounds and
repeat steps for brewing coffee.
CAUTION: Failure to allow Coffeemaker to cool may cause
water to overheat and spray hot steam. The hot steam can
cause severe burns.
User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to a
qualified appliance repair technician if servicing is needed.
WARNING: Unplug from wall outlet before cleaning.
Care And Cleaning Instructions
1. Always make sure the Coffeemaker is OFF, the BREW
Light is off, and the unit is completely cool before cleaning.
2. After daily use, the Removable Filter Basket, Carafe and
Carafe Lid should be washed in warm, soapy water.
3. If necessary, wipe the outside of the Coffeemaker with a soft,
damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleansers,
scouring pads or steel wool.
Storage Instructions
Unplug unit; store in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never
store it while it is hot or still plugged in. Cord should be fed into
the Cord Storage area. Never wrap cord tightly around the
appliance. Do not put any stress on the cord where it enters
the unit, as it could cause the cord to fray and break.

Descaling
We recommend that you descale your Coffeemaker once a
month because mineral deposits can form a coating in the
Coffeemaker, causing slower brewing time and possibly an off
flavor in the coffee. Use a cleaner recommended for coffee-
makers or the solution described below. To descale your unit:
1. Remove and fill the Water Reservoir using 1/4 white vinegar
and 3/4 fresh, clean, cold water. Replace Water Reservoir
following the instructions outlined in the “Brewing
Instructions” section of this Use and Care Guide.
2. Place the clean Permanent Filter Basket into the Removable
Filter Basket Holder, then close the Lid. Place empty Carafe
on Base Plate.
3. Wait 2 hours before proceeding. This will allow the vinegar
time to break down the lime and mineral deposits.
4. After 2 hours, following the “Brewing Instructions,” outlined,
brew the vinegar/water descaling solution through the
Coffeemaker and discard the brewed solution.
NOTE: While performing this procedure do not use a filter or
coffee grounds.
5. Repeat the 10 cup brewing process at least 4 times with
fresh, clean, cold water to ensure that the vinegar in the
Water Chamber and Thermal Carafe has been flushed.
NOTE: An easy way to determine if all the vinegar has been
rinsed out is to sprinkle a small amount of baking soda into
the water in the Carafe after it has completed the brewing
cycle. The baking soda will react with the vinegar. A gentle
fizzing indicates that there is still vinegar in the water and the
procedure should be repeated. If there is no reaction then it
means that all of the vinegar has been rinsed clean.
