Note: Your coffee maker has a

3-prong grounded plug. To reduce the

risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit

in an outlet only one way. If the plug

does not fit in the outlet, contact a

qualified electrician. Do not modify the

plug in any way.

A short power-supply cord is to be

provided to reduce risks resulting from

becoming entangled in or tripping over

a longer cord.

Longer extension cords are available

and may be used if care is exercised in

their use.

If a long extension cord is used,

• the marked electrical rating of the

extension cord should be at least as

great as the electrical rating of the

Good quality water is vital to the

brewing of good coffee, so it is

important to follow these

recommendations when using your

KitchenAid®Compact Coffee Maker:

• Use fresh tap water or filtered water

only; distilled or spring/mineral water

is NOT recommended.

• Remove calcium build-up from your

coffee maker regularly.

BEFORE USING YOUR

COFFEE MAKER

Before using, rinse the coffee maker by

running it through a cycle with water

only. Wash all removable parts in hot,

soapy water; rinse with clean hot water

and dry. (All removable parts are

dishwasher safe.)

TO MAKE COFFEE

1. Plug in the coffee maker.

2. Remove the Carafe from the

Warming Plate.

3. Open the Water Tank Lid.

4. Using the Carafe filled with fresh,

cool water, fill the Water Tank with

the amount of water needed for the

amount of coffee you wish to make.

DO NOT fill to a level higher than

the top marking on the Water Tank.

5. Swing the Filter Holder out of the

coffee maker. Place a paper filter in

the Filter Holder. Use a #2 cone

shape filter.

6. Fill the filter with one rounded

scoop of medium to coarse ground

coffee for each cup you are making,

using the included scoop. Use more

coffee for a stronger brew, less for

weaker.

7. Swing the Filter Holder back into

the coffee maker until it clicks into

closed position.

8. Place the Carafe on the Warming

Plate. Make sure the Carafe Lid is

in position on the Carafe.

9. Switch the coffee maker ON; the

ON/OFF Light will come on. (If

you remove the Carafe from the

Warming Plate during brewing, the

Automatic Pause & Pour Valve will

prevent liquid from dripping on the

Warming Plate. NOTE: The Lid

the Automatic Pause & Pour Valve

to operate.)
