FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR:
Open the hinged Water Reservoir Lid that is located on the top backside of the
Coffeemaker (See Figure A). Fill the Water Reservoir with the desired amount of cold
filtered or bottled water. Refer to the indicator markings on the side of the Water Reservoir
to see how much water is inside it. Do not exceed the MAX Fill Line indicated on the
Water Reservoir (See Figure A).
NOTE:
z There is an Overflow Hole in the back of the Water Reservoir to prevent
exceeding the capacity of the Coffeemaker. If you add too much water, it will
drip out from the back of the unit.
z The amount of brewed coffee after the brewing process will always be slightly
less than the amount of water placed into the Coffeemaker, since some water
will be absorbed by the coffee grounds.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Place the Coffeemaker on a flat, level surface such as a countertop. Plug the
Coffeemaker into a 120 volt 60 Hz AC outlet.
2. Fill the Water Reservoir. Flip open the Filter Basket Lid and insert a No. 4 Gevalia
cone shaped paper filter into the Removable Filter Basket. Place the desired amount of
ground coffee into the paper filter. Brew Gevalia Kaffe with the coffee/water ratio you
normally use when you prepare ground coffee. If you prefer strong coffee, we
recommend the following European method, which produces rich, full-bodied flavor.
Use one level Gevalia scoop for each cup (6 fluid ounces) or 12 level scoops per full
pot of coffee. (Experiment with the amount of coffee used in order to adjust the flavor
to your taste.)
