Adding Water and Ground Coffee

1   Lift and open the filter basket lid. For your convenience, 

you can lift out the removable filter basket. 

2   Place a 10–12 cup paper cone-style filter or a permanent 

filter into the removable filter basket. (Figure 2)

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 Measurement Chart.

4   Be sure the filter is properly centered and all the way down in the filter basket. 

5   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 show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding 

desired number of cups. 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 as well as steam. 

6   Pour the water into the water reservoir. Do not fill past the “MAX line” or water will 

flow out of the overfill hole in the back of the water reservoir. Close the lid and place 

the empty decanter onto the warming 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.

Brewing COFFee nOw

1   After completing the steps in the “Adding Water and Coffee” section and with the 

decanter and the filter basket securely in place. 

2   Press the AUTO/ON/OFF Button to begin the brewing 

cycle. The red indicator light will turn on to signal 

that the coffeemaker is brewing. When the brewing 

cycle is complete, the coffeemaker switches over to 

the warming mode. Your coffeemaker will keep your 

coffee hot for 2 hours, then automatically shut off. 

While the coffee is brewing, the Pause ’n Serve feature 

allows you to sneak a cup of coffee from the decanter. 

Replace the decanter on the warming plate within 

30 seconds to prevent overflow and possible injury. 

To turn the coffeemaker off, push the AUTO/ON/OFF  

button until the light goes off. (fig 3)

3   To enjoy a more full flavored cup of coffee, press the 

STRONG BREW button once. The STRONG BREW blue 

light will turn on. The coffeemaker will remain in 

the STRONG BREW you have selected until you change it back to REGULAR strength by 

pressing the STRONG BREW button or until you unplug the machine (figure 4).
