THE QUEST FOR THE PERFECT CUP OF COFFEE

• ELEMENT 1: WATER
  Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that water is as important as the quality of your coffee. If water doesn’t taste good from the tap, it won’t taste good in your coffee. Cuisinart includes a charcoal water filter to remove chlorine, bad tastes and odors, for the purest coffee flavor, every time you brew.

• ELEMENT 2: COFFEE
  While coffee is 98% water, all of the flavor comes from the beans. To achieve the same great taste you enjoy at a coffee bar, you need to use the same quality of coffee. If you choose to grind your own beans, buy them fresh and whole. Buy only about a two-week supply at a time, because once the bean is broken, its flavor degrades quickly.

• ELEMENT 3: GRIND
  The grind is critical for proper
  flavor extraction. If the grind is too fine, over-extraction and bitterness will result. Too fine a grind may also clog the filter. If grind is too coarse, the water will pass through too quickly and the maximum flavor will not be extracted. When grinding your own beans, we recommend a medium-fine grind.

• ELEMENT 4: PROPORTION
  Coffee that is too strong or too weak is always a disappointment. Follow the recommended portions of ground coffee in the instructions under Brewing Coffee, and later adjust the amount to suit your taste.

CHARCOAL WATER FILTER
Your Coffeemaker comes with two charcoal water filters that eliminates chlorine, bad tastes and odors from tap water.

Inserting the Water Filter

• Remove the filters from the polybag and soak them, fully immersed, in cold tap water for 15 minutes.
• Lift the water filter holder out of the water reservoirs from both the Coffeemaker side and Hot Water System side (see diagram, page 5).
• Press down on the filter compartment and pull toward you to open.
• Place filter into the holder and snap it closed. Be careful – improper placement can tear the filter skin.
• Flush filter by running cold tap water through holes in bottom of compartment for 10 seconds.
• Allow the filter to drain completely.
• Slide the water filter holder back into the channel in the water reservoir, pushing it down to the base of the unit.
  NOTE : We recommend changing the water filter every 60 days or after 60 uses, and more often if you have hard water.
  Replacement filters can be purchased in stores, by calling Cuisinart Customer Service, or at www.cuisinart.com.

BREWING COFFEE

Follow instructions in Before First Use on previous page.

1. Insert charcoal water filter
   Follow directions for the preparation and insertion of the filter on page 7.

2. Fill the water reservoir
   Open the Coffeemaker reservoir cover by lifting it up. Pour in the desired amount of water using the water level indicator located at the side of the coffeemaker.

3. Set preferences
   Push the 1–4 cup button if you are brewing fewer than 5 cups.

4. Add the ground coffee
   Remove the filter basket by grasping the handle and lifting straight up. Insert a #4 paper filter or permanent filter. Be sure that a paper filter is completely open and fully inserted in the basket. It may help to fold and flatten the seams of a paper filter beforehand. Add 1 level scoop of ground coffee per cup. Adjust the amount according to taste.
   NOTE : The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 15 tablespoons for this coffeemaker. Exceeding this amount may cause overflow if the coffee is too finely ground.
   Replace the filter basket in the filter basket holder and press firmly on cover to be sure it closes securely.

5. Before brewing coffee
   Make sure the thermal carafe is in position on the resting plate and the top cover is closed.

   Turn the Function knob to BREW, press the On/Off button, and the blue indicator light will turn on. Or, set the AUTO ON function (see page 7) and the Auto On indicator will light.

7. After brewing
   When the brewing cycle has been completed, five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue to stream from the filter for several seconds. N OTE: Reservoir cover may be hot during and directly after brewing. Wait at least 10 minutes before opening.

BREW PAUSE™ FEATURE
This feature interrupts the flow of coffee from the basket to let you pour that first cup mid-brew. Because the flavor profile of coffee brewed at the start of a cycle differs from that brewed towards the end, be aware that using this feature will weaken the flavor strength of the finished pot.
NOTE : Removing carafe for more than 20 seconds may cause filter basket to overflow.

USING THE HOT WATER SYSTEM
Follow instructions in Before First Use on previous page.

1. Insert charcoal water filter
   Follow directions for the preparation and insertion of the filter on page 7.

   Open the Hot Water reservoir cover by lifting it up. Fill the reservoir with water, making sure not to fill above the Max fill line.

3. Heating
   Press the On/Off button on the Hot Water side of your unit. The blue On indicator around the On/Off button will light. The Water Ready indicator will flash while the unit is heating. Once the unit has heated, the Water Ready indicator will become solid.

4. Dispensing water
   To dispense water, be sure the safety switch, which is located below the lever, is in the unlocked position. Simply slide the safety switch to the left to unlock. Then place a cup on the drip tray and press the lever down –the unit dispenses up to 13 ounces of hot water at a time. If desired, return the safety lock to the locked position (to the right) after dispensing water.
   NOTE : You can remove the drip tray to accommodate tall mugs.

5. After dispensing
   The heater will immediately begin heating more water. The Water Ready indicator will again flash until water reaches serving temperature. NOTE: The red Add Water indicator will light if more water is needed.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Always turn unit off and remove the plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Lift up the Coffeemaker reservoir cover. Remove and discard the paper filter and ground coffee. The filter basket can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of the dishwasher. Dry all parts after use.
• Do not put any water in the unit once the filter basket has been removed. Wipe the area under the filter basket with a damp cloth.
• Remove the lid of carafe and discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and lid can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher. The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on the upper rack only.
• Do not use any scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the Coffeemaker.
• Never immerse base unit in water or other liquids. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints and other blemishes on the housing can be washed off with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wipe resting plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean the resting plate. Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.
  Maintenance : Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

EMPTYING THE HOT WATER RESERVOIR
If your Hot Water System has not been used for more than one week, or if you plan to store your Coffee PLUS® unit, we suggest emptying the reservoir completely. Place it over the sink, and pull the water release tab from the bottom of the unit to drain the Hot Water System reservoir. Once empty, replace the release tab.
NOTE : Hot water reservoir should be emptied only when the unit is cool. To avoid injury, do not empty the reservoir when there is hot water in the unit.

DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium deposits that form over time on the metal parts of the coffeemaker.
To Decalcify Your Coffeemaker

• For best performance from your Coffeemaker, decalcify the unit from time to time. The frequency depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the Coffeemaker. The flashing

• Clean light will indicate when unit should be cleaned.

• If the Clean light begins to flash when the Coffeemaker is turned on, it is telling you that the calcium buildup is interfering with the functioning of your Coffeemaker and the flavor of your coffee. To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of ¹⁄³ white vinegar and ²⁄³ water. Press the Clean button. When the Clean light glows, turn the Coffeemaker on by
  pressing the On/Off button. The Clean light will shine steadily. The Coffeemaker is now in CLEAN mode. One cycle should be sufficient to adequately clean the Coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the five beeps sound, the Coffeemaker will shut off. Turn the Coffeemaker on to see if the Clean light continues to flash. If it does, turn it off and then repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water.

• If the Clean light no longer flashes, turn the Coffeemaker off and then run one cycle of fresh cold water through the unit before using the unit again to brew coffee.

Notes on the CLEAN Function
Pressing the Clean button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return the Coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing On/Off will also exit the CLEAN mode and turn the Coffeemaker off.

To Decalcify Your Hot Water System
We recommend you clean your Hot Water System twice a year to remove any calcium scale residue from the heating element.

1. Dispense and dispose of any water in the reservoir until the Add Water light flashes.
2. Add 32 oz. of white vinegar to the Hot Water reservoir. Turn the unit on to heat the vinegar.
3. Dispense 16 oz. of vinegar and dispose. This will fill the inner tank.
4. Let the vinegar solution sit in the unit for 20 minutes. Do not dispense during this time.
5. After 20 minutes, turn the unit off and allow hot vinegar to cool. Then drain the internal reservoir over a sink by removing the water release tab from the bottom of unit.
6. When vinegar has completely drained, replace tab.
7. Refill reservoir with water and drain the internal reservoir again (by removing tab at the bottom of the unit) to flush thoroughly. Replace tab. NOTE: If water has a vinegar taste or smell, continue to dispense water until taste or smell is gone.
