SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning : This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.

SETTING THE CLOCK/TIMER & AUTO BREW

Plug in unit, clock flashes 12:00 a.m. until correct time is set. The coffecmaker works without setting the clock.

1. To set current time of day: Press the HOUR button, little dot in the top left corner of the display indicates the "p.m." time. Press the MIN button. Once set, clock continues to keep time unless coffeemaker is unplugged or a power failure occurs. Clock can only be reset when in the flashing mode (F).

2. To set the Auto-Brew time: Press the PROG/AUTO button and the light near the PROG/AUTO button starts flashing indicating it is being programmed. Press the

HOUR, then MIN buttons to set the time you'd like coffee to automatically begin brewing (for example 7:15 a.m.). Press the HOUR and MIN buttons to 7:15 a.m. Make sure the PM indicator light is not lit. When finished, press the PROG/AUTO button a second time (hold the button down a few seconds) until the PROG/AUTO light stops flashing and slays on to show the timer is activated.

1. Prepare the coffeemaker for brewing as instructed in "BREWING" but don't turn on the unit.

2. To check your preset auto time, press PROG/AUTO and it will display. When the clock returns to the current time of day, press PROG/AUTO to reactivate the timer.
   To automatically brew coffee again at the same preset auto-on time, prepare coffeemaker for brewing again and press the PROG/AUTO button.

Note: The Auto-Brew function can be canceled at any time by pressing the PROG/AUTO button a second time or by pressing the OFF button twice. The PROG/AUTO light goes out.

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

1. Be sure the unit is off and cooled. Open the water reservoir and brew basket lid, remove the brew basket (lift straight up), and discard the paper filter/grounds. Clean as follows: brew basket, carafe, permanent gold tone filter and carafe lid are all top rack dishwasher-safe; or they may be hand washed in warm, sudsy water. See below for carafe care. The coffecmaker's exterior, control panel area and "Keep Hot" plate may be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. Never immerse the coffecmaker in water.

2. To clean inside of water reservoir and brew basket lid, open the lid allowing it to rest in the open position. Pull water showerhead out from under the guide, wipe surfaces with a damp cloth, then place water showerhead under guide and close the cover (G).

Carafe Care

A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from a hot liquid. To avoid breaking:

• Do not allow all liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the "Keep I lot" plate or heat the carafe when empty.
  Discard the carafe if chipped, cracked, or damaged in any manner.
• Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers; they will scratch and weaken the glass.
• Do not place the carafe on or near a gas or electric burner, in a heated oven, or in a microwave oven.
• Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.

Mineral Deposits and Clogging

Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your coffecmaker. Cleaning is recommended every 3 months. Excessive steaming or a prolonged brewing cycle is a sign that a cleaning is needed. The frequency of flushing out deposits is affected by your usage and water hardness. During cleaning, more steaming occurs than when brewing coffee and steam emissions are possible.

1. Pour white vinegar into water reservoir up to 2-cup level on water window. Add cold water up to 5-cup line.
2. Put a paper filter in the brew basket and close the lid. Set empty carafe on the "Keep I Hot" plate.
3. Turn on coffecemaker and let half the cleaning solution brew into carafe (till water level goes down to around "2"). Turn off coffecemaker and let it soak for at least 15 minutes to soften the deposits.
4. Turn on coffecmaker and brew remaining cleaning solution into carafe.
5. Turn off caffeemaker, empty carafe and discard soiled filter.
6. Fill reservoir with cold water to 5-cup line, replace empty carafe, then turn on coffeemaker for a complete brew cycle to flush out remaining cleaning solution. You may have to repeat this to eliminate the vinegar smell/laste.
7. Wash the brew basket and carafe as instructed in "CLEANING."
