or permanent filter. Be sure that the paper

filter is completely open and fully inserted

in the basket. It may help to fold and flatten

the seams of a paper filter beforehand.

Add the desired amount of ground coffee,

corresponding to the number of cups being

brewed. Many coffee bars and the Specialty

Coffee Association of America recommend

adding 2 rounded tablespoons (30 ml)of

coffee per 6 ounces (170 ml) of water. Some

coffee manufacturers recommend using

1 tablespoon (15 ml) per cup. We

recommend using 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of

ground coffee per cup, but use more or less

to suit your taste.

NOTE: The maximum capacity for

ground coffee is 15 tablespoons (225 ml)

for this 10 cup (1.5 L) coffeemaker.

Exceeding this amount may cause

overflow if the coffee is too finely

ground.

Replace the filter basket in the filter basket

holder and flip the water reservoir lid

closed. Press firmly on top where it says

"Press to Close". Be sure that it closes

securely in place.

Before brewing coffee:

Remove thermal carafe lid by turning in the

direction of the “unlock” arrow. Prewarm carafe

by rinsing it out with hot water. PREWARMING

THE CARAFE WILL HELP KEEP THE

COFFEE HOTTER.

Return the carafe lid to the carafe. To lock the

lid, turn in the direction of the “lock” arrow until

it fits tightly on carafe and arrow lines up in the

centre of the pour spout. This ensures lid is

closed and in the proper position for brewing

and pouring.

Make sure you have replaced the carafe in its

position on the heating plate and have closed the

top cover. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet.

4. Power unit:

Turn the function knob to brew, lift flip

switch up to “On” position, and the red

indicator light will turn on. Or, set the Auto

On function and the green indicator will light.

5. During and after brewing:

The Brew Pause™ feature allows you to

remove the carafe from the plate 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 the coffee before the cycle has

reached completion, since the coffee

brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a

flavour profile which is very different from

the flavour at the end of the cycle.

Removing a cup during the brewing cycle

will alter the flavour of the finished pot.

Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir

it before serving to blend the flavours. 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 unless

you have turned off the ready tone. Coffee

will continue to stream from the filter for

several seconds.

After brewing, the unit will automatically shut

itself off. The thermal carafe will keep the

coffee hot for hours.

Bottom of Thermal Carafe is hot to touch

for several minutes after brewing.

Use caution.

The brew-through, pour-through lid allows

coffee to drip from coffeemaker through the

closed lid. When brewing is complete, the lid

seals itself so air stays out and coffee fresh-

ness and temperature are preserved. No

need to turn or adjust the lid before pouring.

CLEANING AND

MAINTENANCE

Always turn coffeemaker OFF and remove the

plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

Lift up the reservoir cover. Remove and

discard the paper filter and ground coffee.

The filter basket and gold tone filter can be

washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed

thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of the

dishwasher. Dry all parts after use.

Do not put any water in the unit once

the filter basket has been removed.

Wipe the area under the filter basket

with a damp cloth.
