Before Using for the First Time
Before making your first pot of coffee, we recommend operating the coffee
maker once or twice with water only, without coffee grounds to remove any
possible dust.
BREwING COFFEE
Making Coffee Immediately
1. Open the water reservoir lid and fill the water reservoir with the correct
amount of water as indicated on the water gauge. Do not overfill beyond
the MAX line.
2. Ensure that the filter and filter basket is properly in place.
3. Add coffee grounds into the filter. Usually a cup of coffee needs a level
spoon of coffee grounds, but you may adjust according to your tastes.
4. Gently shake the filter basket to distribute the coffee evenly.
5. Close water reservoir lid and place the carafe on the warming plate.
6. Plug the power cord into a standard 120 volt AC electrical outlet
and press the ON/OFF Button once; the "ON" indicator light will be
illuminated (blue). The appliance will begin working.
Note: You can take out the carafe, pour and serve at any time.
The appliance will stop dripping automatically, but the time cannot
exceed 30 seconds.
7. Do not open water reservoir lid when the coffee maker is operating.
The flow back of hot water will damage the appliance.
8. You can take out carafe, pour and serve when brewing is finished
(about one minute later after the coffee stops dripping out.)
Note: The coffee you get will be less than the water you have put in,
as some water is absorbed by coffee grounds. As safety is concerned,
be sure to cover the lid of carafe when pouring.
9. To keep the coffee warm, return the carafe to the warming plate after
pouring the coffee. The coffee can be kept warm for up to 2 hours.
After 2 hours the appliance (and carafe warming plate) will turn off
automatically.
10. Press the ON/OFF button twice to turn off the appliance; the "ON"
indicator light will be extinguished. Unplug the power cord from
the electrical outlet when the appliance is not in use, left unattended,
or when the carafe is empty.
Automatic Start Function
Use this function if you do not want the coffee maker to start operation
immediately. For example if it is 5:10 PM, and you want the coffee maker
to automatically start at 8:15 PM, first follow steps 1 to 5 of above section,
and then you can set the automatic start function as follows:
1. Press "ON/OFF" twice, the "AUTO" indicator will be illuminated BLUE.
2. Press "PROG" button, the "LCD" will display "CLOCK". Set the current
