Setting Up Your Coffeemaker

Congratulations on the purchase of your new MR. COFFEE coffeemaker! Please read these instructions carefully before using your new coffeemaker. Proper use, care and maintenance will ensure trouble-free operation and the long life of this appliance. Save these instructions for cleaning and, if necessary, replacement parts information.

Operation and Use

Before First Use
Before using your Coffeemaker for the first time, wash decanter/lid and removable brew basket (black) using a mild, non-abrasive detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly. Follow Steps 4 – 6 (Brewing Coffee) using water, to clean the inside.
Brewing Coffee

Open the swing-out brew basket. Insert a MR. COFFEE 4-Cup filter into the black inner brew basket.
Add desired amount of coffee, referring to the Coffee Measurement Chart. (See Page 7) Shake lightly to level coffee.
Be sure the paper filter is centered before closing the brew basket.
Fill the decanter with cold water to desired capacity as marked on the side of the decanter (1 cup = 5 oz). To brew 4 cups of coffee, fill the decanter to the bottom of the metal band.
Pour the water into the water reservoir. Note: For easy and accurate filling, refer to cup markings inside the reservoir. Place the empty decanter onto the warming plate.
Plug the cord into the electrical outlet and turn your Coffeemaker switch to the “ON” position. When the coffee stops flowing, the brewing cycle is complete.
Note: The warming plate will keep your coffee piping hot until you turn your Coffeemaker off.
After contents have cooled, carefully remove the one-piece brew basket and discard the used grounds and filter. Rinse the inner brew basket and replace.
Note: Remove decanter from the warming plate before opening the brew basket. This will prevent the drip stop valve from catching on the decanter lid.
To make another pot of coffee, repeat Steps 1 – 7.
Be sure to turn your Coffeemaker off when the decanter is empty and you are no longer using your Coffeemaker. Please unplug the power cord when not in use.

Warning: To avoid risk of personal injury or damage to property as a result of overflow, be sure the decanter is squarely centered under the brew basket during the brewing cycle. Brewed coffee and grounds, both in brew basket and decanter, are very hot. Handle with care to avoid scalding. If brew basket overflows, or if brew basket fails to drain into decanter during brew cycle, do not open or handle basket. Unplug Coffeemaker and wait for contents to cool before handling.

CLEANING

Your Coffeemaker must be cleaned when you begin to notice excessive steaming or the brewing time increases considerably. This condition is caused by a build-up of lime and mineral deposits from your water. If the pumping action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the machine, the appliance requires cleaning. The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness of water used. The following table gives a suggested cleaning schedule.

Turn Coffeemaker to “ON” and let all of the vinegar pass through the Coffeemaker again.
