8. When the brewing cycle is completed, the On/Off button (K) will stay illuminated as
the keep warm cycle starts. The anti-drip valve will prevent any remaining coffee
from dripping onto the hot plate. Ensure that the carafe is placed back on the hot
plate after serving.
Note: When the brewing cycle is finished, there will still be hot liquid in the filter
basket. Wait a few minutes for the rest of the liquid to drip through into the carafe.
The keep warm function will operate for up to 30 minutes. During the keep warm
cycle, the On/Off button (K) will stay illuminated. At any time you can stop the keep
warm cycle just by pressing the On/Off button (K).
9. Open the top lid and carefully remove the filter holder by grasping the tabs on each
side of the filter holder. Discard the used coffee filter and grounds. If you used the
permanent filter, wash it immediately (see section 7 CLEANING) (Fig. 8 and 9).
TIPS & ADVICE
At any time during the brewing cycle, you can turn the coffee maker off by simply
pressing the On/Off button (K). No buttons will be illuminated, indicating that the
coffee maker is off.
TIPS & ADVICE
If two or more pots of coffee are to be made it is recommended that the coffeemaker
be allowed to cool for 3 minutes between each brewed pot.
Auto Shut-Off
As a convenience, your coffee maker has been designed with an Auto Shut-Off feature.
When the brewing cycle is completed, the coffee maker will shut off automatically after
30 minutes.
5. AROMA FUNCTION
To ensure optimum flavor, the Aroma button (P) allows you to adjust the intensity of the
coffee prepared:
1. Follow steps 1 through 6 in the "Making Coffee" section.
2. Press the Aroma button (P) to select a stronger strength of brew.
3. Press the On/Off button (K). The blue LED will light up to indicate the brew cycle
has started.
4. To deactivate the Aroma function, press the Aroma button (P) again.
TIPS & ADVICE
This function will slow down the flow of water into the filter basket. It will provide a
richer coffee flavor. When the brewing process ends and the water level indicator
is empty, there will still be hot liquid in the filter basket. Wait a few minutes for the
rest of the liquid to drip through into the carafe.

6. PROGRAMMING YOUR COFFEE MAKER
Auto On Setting
1. Check to ensure that the clock is set to the correct time. If the time is incorrect,
follow the instructions in the "Setting the Clock" section.
2. Follow steps 1 through 6 in the "Making Coffee" section.
3. Press the Program button (M).
4. Use the Hour (N) and Min (O) buttons to set the desired start brewing hour (see
section 3 SETTING THE CLOCK). Refer to the AM and PM indicators on the left side.
5. Press the Auto on button (L). The LED light will illuminate to indicate that the coffee
maker is programmed. The digital clock will continue to show the current time.
6. Once the preset brew time is reached, the coffee maker will automatically initiate the
brew cycle. The On/Off button (K) will illuminate, indicating that your coffee maker
has begun the brewing cycle. The button Auto on (L) will switch off.
To cancel a preset brewing cycle, press the Auto on button (L) - the preset brew cycle
is cancelled when the Auto on button (L) is no longer illuminated. For your convenience,
your coffee maker will remember your preset brewing time. Simply press the Auto on
button (L) to activate the preset brewing cycle. To change the preset brewing time,
follow steps 3 through 7 above.
TIPS & ADVICE
At any time during the brewing cycle, you can turn the coffee maker off or cancel
the brewing cycle, by simply pressing the On/Off button (K). No buttons will be
illuminated, indicating that the coffee maker is off.
Pause & Serve
This feature allows you to interrupt the brewing cycle and pour a cup of coffee before
the entire carafe is finished brewing.
While this will temporarily stop the coffee from dripping into the carafe, it does
not stop the brewing cycle. After serving, the carafe should be immediately
returned to the heating plate to prevent the filter holder from overflowing.
Make sure the carafe is positioned firmly against the back of the coffee maker.
Do not remove the carafe for longer than 20 seconds.
This setting should be used when the carafe is half full or less, to ensure the coffee
quality is maintained.
The Stay Warm setting will continue to operate as long as the unit is on and will shut
off automatically after 30 minutes.
TIPS & ADVICE
While the pause and serve feature is a convenient way to pour a cup of coffee
mid-cycle, we recommend you wait until the brewing cycle is complete as the
strength and flavor of coffee poured mid-cycle will vary from the finished brew.
