water reservoir with GLASS and THERMAL markings,
showing the MAXIMUM amount of water that can
be used for these corresponding decanters. Do not
fill past the “12 cup MAX line” for glass decanter or
“8 cup MAX line” for thermal decanter on the water
window or past the corresponding GLASS/THERMAL
stair step within the water reservoir or water will
flow out of the overfill hole in the back of the
coffeemaker.
The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly
less than the amount of water poured in the water
reservoir. This is due to the minimum absorption of
water by the coffee grounds.
7. Lift the pour through reservoir lid and pour the
water into the water reservoir. Close the lid and
place the empty decanter onto the warmer plate.
NOTE: Make sure the decanter is fully placed on the
warming plate or the water and the grounds will
overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause
personal injury or damage to property.
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of damaging the
decanter and/or the risk of personal injury,
do not add cold water to the decanter if the
decanter is already hot. Allow the decanter to
cool before using.

2. Place a MR. COFFEE ® brand
10-12 cup paper basket-
style filter or a MR. COFFEE ®
permanent filter into the
removable filter basket (Figure 5).
NOTE: If using paper filters, it
is important that the sides of the filter
fit flush against the side of the filter basket. If filter
collapse occurs, dampen the filter before placing
in the filter basket and adding ground coffee and
water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake
to level the coffee. See the Suggested Coffee

4. After following instructions in the Water Filtration
System, place the MR. COFFEE ® water filter in the
basket, making sure that the side marked “this side
up” faces you and that the water filter is level.
5. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly
centered and all the way down in the brew basket
and close the lid.
6. Fill the decanter with cold, fresh water to the
desired capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces). For
easy and accurate filling, the water markings
on the glass decanter and the water window
shows the amount of water needed to make the
corresponding desired number of cups for glass and
thermal options. There is also a stair step water level
measurement located inside the left side of the
