PAUSE AND SERVE
1. After approximately 2 cups of coffee have been brewed, the carafe may be slowly
removed and the coffee will stop dripping.
2. The flow valve is located on the bottom of the filter holder and is activated when
the carafe is removed. This design makes it possible for you to remove
the carafe and pour a cup of coffee before the entire carafe is brewed.
IMPORTANT: When replacing the filter holder, the flow valve must be properly inserted
into the front hole of the machine, so that it can be seen as it sits on the top of the
carafe lid.
3. When using this feature, make sure that the carafe is replaced under the filter holder
within 30 seconds to prevent overflow.
BREWING A SECOND CARAFE OF COFFEE
1. To brew another carafe of coffee, press the BREW button to turn the Coffee Maker OFF.
Remove plug from wall outlet. It is recommended that the Coffee Maker be OFF and
allowed to cool for 15 minutes between cycles.
CAUTION: Failure to allow Coffee Maker to cool sufficiently could cause hot steam
and spray when the water is added to the water reservoir. The hot steam can cause
severe burns.
2. Lift the Coffee Maker lid. Unfold the handle, lift and remove the permanent coffee filter;
discard used coffee grounds, rinse in cool, clean water.
3. Lift the removable filter holder up and out of the Coffee Maker.

is recommended for each cup of coffee desired

HINTS FOR GREAT TASTING COFFEE
• A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning, as
described in the Care & Cleaning Instructions and Descaling sections of this Instruction
Manual is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.
• Finer grinds promote fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grind
will require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
• Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly sealed in
the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
• For optimum coffee flavor, buy whole beans and grind them finely just before brewing.
• Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately
after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee are due to the extraction of oil
from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees
are used. Over extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your
Coffee Maker.
