SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
Notes on the plug:
This appliance has a polarized plug. 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 plugin
anyway.
Notes on the cord:
(a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided to
reduce risks 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.
Plasticizer Warning
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating to the finish of the
countertop or tabletop or other furniture, place NON- PLASTIC coasters or
placemats between the appliance and the finish of the countertop or tabletop.
Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken; permanent blemishes may occur
or stains can appear.
Electric Power
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance
may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical
circuit from other appliances.

REMOVING MINERAL DEPOSITS
To keep your coffee maker operating efficiently, periodically you should clean away the mineral deposits left by the water according to the water quality in your area and the use frequency, we recommend removing mineral deposits as follows:
- Combine 6 cups of white vinegar and 4 cups of cold water in the carafe.
- Pour into the water reservoir.
- Insert filter basket into the filter basket holder and close lid.
- Make sure the lid on the carafe is in place, and place the empty carafe on the keep the warm plate.

- Once the cleaning cycle is complete, the light around the “BREW-OFF” button will turn off and the unit will beep.
- Discard all water/vinegar solution from carafe & water tank.
- Repeat the brew cycle 2-3 times with cold water before brewing coffee again
HINTS FOR GREAT-TASTING COFFEE
- A clean coffee maker is essential for making great-tasting coffee. Regularly clean the coffee maker as specified in the “CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE” section. Always use fresh, cold water in the coffee maker.
- Store unused coffee powder in a cool, dry place. After opening a package of coffee powder, reseal it tightly and store it in a refrigerator to maintain its freshness.
- For an optimum coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and finely grind them just before brewing.
- Do not reuse coffee powder since this will greatly reduce the coffee’s flavor. Reheating coffee is not recommended as coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.
- Clean the coffee maker when over-extraction causes oiliness. Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee are due to the extraction of oil from the coffee powder.
- Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used.
