SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

This product is for household use only.

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

1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
3. If an extension cord is used:

a) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

b) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

c) The 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 cord is damaged, please contact the customer service line listed in these instructions.

BREWING COFFEE

1. Open cover.
2. Fill water reservoir with desired amount of water. The 12 line on the side of the reservoir represents a full carafe of coffee. Do not fill past this 12 Cup line.

Note: Use spring water or filtered water. Distilled water lacks the minerals necessary to bind to elements of coffee.

Note: Filtered water will limit impurities and excessive minerals that can detrimentally impact coffee flavor and machine performance.

1. Insert a basket type paper filter or the permanent filter into the brew basket. Make sure the tab on the brew basket fits into its slot on the right side of the opening (B) so that the lid closes.
2. Add desired amount of ground coffee. Close lid, making sure it clicks.
3. Make sure carafe lid is properly attached to the empty carafe. Close the carafe lid.

KEEP WARM FUNCTION WITH BREW FRESHNESS TIME

The hot plate remains in “keep warm” mode for 2 hours (120 minutes) following the brew cycle.

• During this time, the “keep warm” time displays instead of the clock, counting down minutes (starting at 120, ending at 0). The numbers let you know how long the coffee has been kept warm.
• After 2 hours has passed, the heater turns off, the ON/OFF ( ⏻) light turns off, and the display reverts to the clock time.

To turn off the coffeemaker at any time press the ON/OFF button ( ⏻).

CARE AND CLEANING

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

CLEANING

• Be sure the unit is unplugged and has cooled.

• Wash the removable parts in the top rack of the dishwasher or wash by hand in hot water with dish detergent.

• Wipe the appliance's exterior surface, control panel and carafe plate with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. Never immerse the coffeemaker in water.

• To clean the inside of the cover, open the cover and leave in the open position. Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth.

AUTO CLEAN™ SYSTEM

De-scaling with the Auto Clean™ system.

Over time, calcium deposits or "scale" may build up in your brewer.

Scale is non-toxic but if left unattended will hinder brewer performance and cause premature failure. Regularly de-scaling your brewer helps to maintain quality coffee as well as the lifespan of the heating element, and other internal parts that come in contact with water throughout the brew process.

To make the de-scaling process as effortless as possible, an Auto Clean ^™ system has been programmed into your coffeemaker.

When should I use the Auto Clean™ system?

You should clean your coffeemaker after every 60 brews (approximately 2 months). If you would like to clean your coffeemaker prior to 60 brew cycles because of hard water, you may do so.

How do I use the Auto Clean™ system?

Follow the simple steps below. Your coffeemaker will take care of the rest.

1. Combine 6 cups of white vinegar and 4 cups of cold water in carafe.
2. Pour into water reservoir.
3. Make sure the lid of the carafe is in place and place empty carafe on the carafe plate.
4. Press and Hold the On/Off button for 3 seconds
5. On/Off Button LED illuminates (no blinking)
6. “CL” appears in the display, blinking once per second and the Auto Clean™ cycle begins.

During the Auto Clean™. Cycle Function:

1. Machine will brew approximately 5 cups of cleaning solution
2. Part of the mixture will brew through. Remaining mixture will be held in coffeemaker for 30 minutes before completing its brew through.
3. Machine will continue brewing remainder of cleaning solution

Note: The entire cleaning cycle will take 45-60 minutes to complete.

1. When the coffeemaker completes the Auto Clean™ cycle, it shuts off automatically.

2. Brew fresh water through appliance following instructions given in GETTING STARTED before brewing coffee again.

TROUBLESHOOTING
