Setting up the machine
IMPORTANT: Before brewing, always check to make sure water level is past the MIN line and add water
if needed. Never exceed the MAX fill line.
NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the amount of water placed into the water reservoir;
as much as 10% is absorbed by coffee grounds and filter.
1. Lift to open the Coffee Maker lid. Fill carafe with cold tap water and pour into water reservoir at the back
of the unit. The stepped water level indicator can be easily viewed inside unit.
2. Place empty carafe on the warming plate.
3. Place the permanent filter in the removable filter holder. Measure 1 level tablespoon or 1 scoop with the
provided scooper cup, of drip or regular grind coffee for each cup of coffee desired. For stronger or milder
coffee, adjust amount of coffee to suit your taste.
4. Lower the filter holder down into the housing. Close the lid.

into the carafe has stopped. The carafe lid should be kept in place to facilitate safe serving and help keep
