SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

Electrical Shock Hazard : This appliance is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce 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 adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, 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 this appliance.

How to Make Coffee

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 coffee maker and allow coffee in filter basket to cool before removing filter basket.

Shock Hazard.
Do not immerse cord, plug, or coffee maker in any liquid.

To Program Automatic Brew

NOTE: White LED will illuminate to indicate PROGRAM is activated. White LED light will turn off when the unit begins to brew at the preprogrammed time.

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, 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 coffee maker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning” section.

How to Use the Brew Options and Clean Notification

BREW OPTIONS
Your coffee maker will default to the “Regular” strength coffee setting when brewing. NOTE: Using the brew strength options will increase the length of brewing time slightly.

CLEAN NOTIFICATION
If unit is always plugged in, after 30 cycles CLEAN will scroll across the display. Follow the directions for “Care and Cleaning.”

NOTES :

• Performing the cleaning procedure will clear the display.
• The brew cycle counter resets every time the coffee maker is unplugged.

Care and Cleaning

Shock Hazard.
Do not immerse cord, plug, or coffee maker in any liquid.

How to Replace the Water Filter (optional accessory)

For better-tasting coffee, use a water filter. Filter replacement is recommended every 60 cycles.

Carafe Safety Precautions

This symbol alerts you to the potential danger for personal injury if you fail to read and follow these safety precautions.

This symbol reminds you that glass is fragile and can break which could result in personal injury.

• 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 coffee maker. Do not use on a gas or electric range top, 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.
• Do not place hot carafe on cool or wet surface. Allow to cool before washing or adding liquids.
• Do not set empty carafe on a hot heating surface.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads, abrasive cleanser, or any other materials that may scratch.
• Do not place hands inside carafe. When handling, be careful if wearing any hand jewelry, especially diamond rings. Jewelry can scratch the glass, which increases possibility of breakage.
• Do not bump, scratch, or boil dry.
• Discard carafe if it is cracked, scratched, or heated while empty for an extended period of time.
• To avoid accidents, do not pour in the direction of people.
• If stirring in the carafe, use only wooden, plastic, or rubber utensils. Do not use metal utensils.
• Follow the above safety precautions carefully to avoid serious burn injuries which may result if breakage occurs while carafe holds heated liquids.
