Using the and Settings

This unit uses ground coffee ONLY. It is NOT intended for use with coffee “pods.”

• Use the setting when a stronger cup of coffee is desired.
• Use the setting for flavored, decaf, finely ground, and premium brand ground coffees such as Starbucks® and Dunkin’ Donuts®.
• When using whole bean coffee, a standard automatic drip coffee grind will yield best results. Be careful not to overgrind, since very finely ground coffee can cause overflow in this unit.
• If overflow occurs, first try switching the unit to the setting, OR use slightly less grounds. The setting dispenses water at a slower rate, allowing more contact time and better coffee extraction from the coffee.

Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee

• 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, choose a package with the latest expiration date or a smaller quantity.
• 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.
• Make sure your coffeemaker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning” section.

Care and Cleaning

WARNING: Shock Hazard.

• Do not immerse cord, plug, or coffeemaker in any liquid.

All coffeemakers should be cleaned at least once a month (once a week for areas with hard water).

• Pour 1/2 cup (125 ml) of plain white vinegar and 1/2 cup (125 ml) of cold water into reservoir.
• Press the or button once. After 30 seconds, turn unit OFF ( ) using the or button and allow vinegar to clean. After 30 minutes, plug in unit and allow it to finish the brew cycle. When brew cycle is finished, wait for unit to cool. Empty cup and rinse.

• Replace accessories. Run two to three cycles of cold tap water. The unit is now cleaned and ready to make coffee.
• Discard grounds after each use. Rinse and/or clean with soapy water. Towel dry or hang dry on brew basket holder.

NOTE: The Scoop™ brew basket should be cleaned daily, and the filter holder should be cleaned at least once a week.
