Operating Your Coffee Maker
4.  Remove the brew basket from the top 
of the Coffee Maker by grasping the 
finger loop on the front of the basket. 
5.  Insert a 10-12 cup flat-bottom paper 
filter or the gold tone permanent filter 
into the brew basket. Do not use both 
types of filters at the same time. Using 
both filters might cause water and 
coffee to overflow the brew basket. 
6.  Using the included scoop, fill the filter 
with one level scoop of ground coffee 
for each cup desired. Use a medium 
grind appropriate for automatic drip 
coffee makers: too fine a grind will 
produce bitterness and may clog the 
coffee filter.
 
NOTE: Always place the filter and 
coffee into the removable brew basket. 
Do not operate the Coffee Maker 
without the brew basket in place. 
7.  Shake the brew basket slightly to even 
out the bed of coffee. Place the basket 
into the Coffee Maker, push it down 
to seat it securely. Be sure the front lid 
is fully closed before brewing. 
8.  Press the On/Off Button to begin 
brewing coffee. If you are only 
brewing 1 to 4 cups of coffee, press 
the 1-4 Cup Button immediately after 
pressing the On/Off Button. The 1 to 
4 cup brew cycle heats small 
quantities of water thoroughly, 
ensuring optimum flavor with small 
pots of coffee.
NOTE: Lifting the front lid while coffee is 
brewing will interrupt the brew process 
and impair flavor.
  9. The Coffee Maker will sound the 
end-of-brewing tone when brewing 
is complete.
 10. The “Time Since Brew” display 
indicates the time elapsed since the 
completion of the brewing cycle. 
 11. At the end of 2 hours, the Coffee 
Maker will automatically shut off. To 
turn off the Coffee Maker manually, 
press the On/Off button. The outside of 
the carafe may be warm to the touch 
after brewing. Use discretion when 
placing the carafe on unprotected 
surfaces immediately after brewing.
 12. Repeat steps 1-8 to brew additional 
carafes of coffee. Always turn off the 
Coffee Maker and allow it to cool for 
five minutes before starting the next 
brew cycle.
THE PAUSE AND POUR FEATURE
The pause and pour feature enables you 
to remove the carafe from the Coffee 
Maker and pour a cup of coffee before 
brewing is finished. When the carafe is 
removed, a special valve stops the flow 
of coffee from the brew basket. Brewing, 
however, does not stop. If the carafe is 
not placed back on the Carafe Tray 
within 25 seconds, water and coffee will 
overflow the brew basket.
