results. If you do not want the grinder to
come on again, press the “Grind Off” but-
ton before pressing the “On” button. Once
the lid is closed, the beeping will stop, and
the grind and brew process will start again
from the beginning.
5. Before Brewing Coffee
Make sure you have replaced the glass
carafe in its position on the warming plate
and have placed a filter in the grinder/filter
basket. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet.
The clock will flash “12:00” continuously until
it has been set. This will not interfere with the
operation of the coffeemaker. To set clock,
see the “Programming Your Coffeemaker”
section, page 10.
Check to see that the Automatic Shutoff Time
and the Carafe Keep Warm Temperature set-
tings are set to match your preference. For
information on these features, see
"Programming Your Coffeemaker” on page 10.
6. Power Unit
a) Immediate grinding and brewing:
Switch the control panel to ON. The indicator
will light and the process will begin.
b) Programmed Brewing:
Press the “Program” button. The indicator will
light and the display will show the programmed
time for as long as the button is depressed.
The display reverts back to time of day once
the button is released. If the indicator light
goes off once the button has been released, it
means the program has not been set. To set
the programmed time, see “Programming Your
Coffeemaker” on page 10.
7. Select Cups Setting
If you are brewing fewer than 5 cups, press the
“1-4 ” button. The indicator light will illumi-
nate. Note that the light will only come on if the
coffeemaker has been turned on or set to the
“program” mode first.
8. During and After Brewing
The Brew Pause ™ feature allows you to remove
the carafe from the heater during mid-brew.
The brewing process does not stop during this
period; only the flow of coffee from the basket
stops. Do not remove the carafe for longer
than 30 seconds or the coffee may overflow
the basket. While we offer this feature, we do
not recommend that you pour coffee before the
cycle has reached completion, since the coffee
brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a fla-
vor profile which is very different from the cof-
fee made at the end of the cycle. Removing a
cup during the brewing cycle will alter the flavor
of the finished pot.
Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir it
before serving to blend the flavors. The coffee
at the bottom of the carafe will be somewhat
stronger than the coffee at the top.
When the brewing cycle has been completed,
five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue
to stream from the filter for several seconds.
After brewing, the heater plate will keep the
coffee at about 180°-185°F. We recommend
transferring the coffee to a thermal carafe pre-
heated with hot water, if the coffee is not going
to be drunk within 20 minutes.
TO MAKE COFFEE WITH
PRE-GROUND BEANS:
Follow instructions 1 and 2 from Making
Coffee section.
3. Add ground coffee to permanent or #4 cone
paper filter. Our recipe suggestion: Use 1
to 1-1/2 tablespoons of ground coffee per
cup. Note: One measuring scoop is approxi-
mately equal to one tablespoon. Adjust the
recipe according to your individual taste.
NOTE: The maximum capacity for ground
coffee is 15 tablespoons, using either a
paper or permanent filter. Exceeding these
amounts may cause overflow if the coffee
is too finely ground.
4. Close the reservoir lid.
(See instructions above.)
5. See Before Brewing Coffee note above.
Press the “Grind Off” button. When this
function is activated, a yellow LED will be
