Charcoal Water Filter; Before Brewing Your First Pot - Cuisinart DGB-900 Serie Manual De Instrucciones

CHARCOAL WATER FILTER

Your coffeemaker comes with a
charcoal water filter that eliminates
chlorine, bad tastes and odors from
tap water.
Inserting the Water Filter
• Remove the filter from polybag and
soak it, fully immersed, in cold tap
water for 15 minutes.
• Lift the water filter holder out of the
water reservoir (see page 6, #12).
• Press down on the filter compartment
and pull toward you to open.
• Place filter into the holder and snap
it closed. Be careful – improper
placement can tear the filter skin.
• Flush filter by running cold tap water
through holes in bottom of
compartment for 10 seconds.
• Allow the filter to drain completely.
• Slide the water filter holder back into
the channel in the water reservoir,
pushing it down to the base of the
unit.
NOTE: We recommend changing
the water filter every 60 days or
after 60 uses, and more
often if you have hard water.
Replacement filters can be
purchased in stores, by
calling Cuisinart
customer service, or at
www.cuisinart.com.
BEFORE BREWING YOUR
FIRST POT OF COFFEE
During the manufacturing process, dust
can get trapped in your coffeemaker. We
recommend flushing out the system
before brewing your first pot of coffee.
Simply follow "Making Coffee with Pre-
Ground Beans," page 10. Skip step #1
and be sure to use only water and a paper
filter...no coffee!
Once you've done that, brew a pot of real
coffee and get ready to enjoy Cuisinart at
its best!
3a. To Remove Hopper to Add Beans
Lift off the hopper lid and turn the
hopper release knob to line up arrows
in the UNLOCK position. Lift the hopper
out of the unit, add beans, and replace
hopper, making sure the release knob is
still in the UNLOCK position. Then turn
the knob to line up the arrows in the
LOCK position. And don't worry; a built-
in safety interlock system prevents the
grinder from operating if the hopper is
not properly inserted. A continuous
beep sounds until the hopper is securely
locked into place.
Warning: Never add water to the reser-
voir when hopper is removed. If water
gets into the grinder motor, it may
become damaged and malfunction.
4. Inserting the Coffee Filter
Press the Filter Basket Door Release
Button to open door. Remove the filter
basket cover (see page 6, #17).
