OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only. WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet. The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with your coffeemaker. 840183101 ENv2.qxd:Layout 1 3/5/10 11:40 AM Page 23 Parts and Features Clock and Controls Filter Basket Swivel Filter Basket Holder Keep-Warm Plate Swivel Filter Basket Button Removable Water Reservoir Carafe Optional Accessories Water Filter To Order, Call:

Burn Hazard. To avoid hot coffee overflowing from the filter basket:

• When using decaffeinated coffee, do not exceed the coffee manufacturer’s recommended serving amount.

• Ensure swivel filter basket is completely closed. If filter basket overflow occurs, unplug coffeemaker and allow coffee in filter basket to cool before removing filter basket. w WARNING BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash unit. See “Cleaning With Vinegar.” Place OPTIONAL water filter and water filter base into water reser- voir (see “Optional Accessories”).

Press HOUR button to set current hour with AM or PM. Press MINUTE button to set current minutes.

For each cup of coffee being made, place one level tablespoon of ground coffee into filter. A permanent filter may also be used with the filter basket. Select your brew option and keep-warm settings (see “How to Use the Brew Option and Keep-Warm Features”).

Press ON/OFF button once to turn the coffeemaker on. If storing coffeemaker, the cord can be pushed into a special cord storage area in the back of the unit. When finished, press ON/OFF button once and unplug. NOTE: If the coffeemaker is not turned off manually, it will auto- matically shut off in two hours.

• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans, or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.

• Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans. If buying preground coffee, chose a package with the latest expiration date or a smaller quantity.

• If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/ medium grind. This will yield the best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly ground coffee within about a week of grinding.

• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield better-tasting coffee than tap water.

• Use approximately 1 tablespoon of grounds for each cup of coffee being made. To avoid overflow, use about 1/3 less grounds when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.

• Make sure your coffeemaker is clean. See “Cleaning With Vinegar” section. 840183101 ENv2.qxd:Layout 1 3/5/10 11:40 AM Page 67

For stronger coffee, hold the BREW OPTIONS button until “BOLD” is illuminated; then release. How to Use the Brew Option and Keep-Warm Features BREW OPTIONS Your coffeemaker will default to the “Regular” strength coffee setting when brewing. NOTE: Using the brew strength options will increase the length of brewing time slightly.

For small amounts, use the 1–4 cup setting by holding the BREW OPTIONS button until “1–4 CUPS” is illuminated; then release.

Then, press the ON/OFF button or set the Automatic Brew to start the coffeemaker after your brew option has been selected.

Adjust the keep-warm setting by pressing the KEEP WARM button until your desired temperature setting is displayed; then release. KEEP WARM This unit is equipped with an adjustable keep-warm feature and will default to the highest (warmest) temperature setting. NOTE: If adjusting the keep-warm temperature after brewing, allow approximately 15 minutes for the coffeemaker to adjust its temperature setting. 840183101 ENv2.qxd:Layout 1 3/5/10 11:40 AM Page 78 Water Filter (optional accessory)

For better-tasting coffee, use a water filter. Filter replacement is recommended every 60 cycles. To Order Water Filter Kit, Call:

• Do not use a cracked carafe or a carafe having a loose or weakened handle.

• This carafe is designed to be used only on the keep-hot plate of your coffeemaker. Do not use on a gas or electric rangetop, or in a microwave or conventional oven.

• To avoid breakage, handle carafe with care. Avoid impact. Glass will break as a result of impact. Use care when filling with water to avoid hitting faucet.
