SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SPECIAL CORD SET

INSTRUCTIONS

A short

power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting

from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.

An extension cord may be purchased and used if care is exercised

in its use.

If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the exten-

sion cord must be at least 10 amps and 120 volts. The resulting

extended cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the

counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped

over accidentally.

*This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is larger than the

other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet

only one way. If the plug

does not

fully fit, contact a qualified

electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

Precautions

When Using This Machine

Do’s. . . . . .

Avoid areas of the coffeemaker which may become hot or emit steam

when the machine is “on’: particularly the brew funnel and the intake

screen.

Avoid jerking or straining the power cord when unplugging. Grasp the

molded plug to unplug.

Unplug the unit when not in use.

Unplug the unit when wiping the exterior. Use only

damp cloth to wipe.

Place machine well back from edge of counter.

Don’ts. . . . . .

Do NOT place a cloth or otherwise restrict airflow beneath the appliance.

Never reheat

beverage by passing it through the brewing system.

not use abrasive

or caustic

cleaning compounds to clean the exterior

of the unit.

Do not store the machine until warmer plate has cooled.

Do not place your hand underneath the brew funnel, in order to avoid

contact with any fluid.

l Do not permit children to use this machine without close adult

supervision.

beverage

flavor and will cause a long

drip time from the

brew funnel. Avoid using chemically softened water.

Cleaning Instructions

Your coffeemaker must be cleaned when you begin to notice excessive

steaming or the

brag

time increases considerably. This condition is

caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water. If the

pumping action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the

machine, then the appliance requires cleaning.

The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness of water used. The

following table gives you the suggested cleaning intervals.

SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVAL

vpe

of Water

Cleaning Frequency

Soft water every 80 brew cycles

Hard water every 40 brew cycles

Your coffeemaker may be cleaned by using MR. COFFEE CLEANER or

vinegar. For best results use MR. COFFEE CLEANER. It is superior to

vinegar and has no unpleasant odor.

Using Mr. Coffee Cleaner

(Read caution statement on side panel of Mr. Coffee Cleaner box before

use)

Fill the decanter to the bottom of the silver band with warm water.

Empty contents of one packet of MR. COFFEE CLEANER into the

decanter and stir until the cleaner is completely dissolved. This will

make a clear blue solution.

Pour the blue solution into the coffeemaker.

Place the empty decanter on the warmer plate. The swing-out basket

with the black filter basket in place should be closed.

Turn your coffeemaker on.

When the blue solution has stopped flowing, turn your coffeemaker

off.

Discard the blue solution and thoroughly rinse the decanter, lid and

black basket.

Repeat steps

with clean water only (no blue solution).

Continue to rinse out the unit until you see no remaining traces of the

blue solution.

normal brewing flow rate is not achieved, repeat the cleaning steps

-#8.

USING VINEGAR:

Fill the decanter to the bottom of the silver band with undiluted white

household vinegar. Pour the vinegar into your coffeemaker.

Place a

4-cup

filter into the brew funnel and close the swing-out

basket.

Place the empty decanter on the warmer plate and turn the

cof-

feemaker on. Watch the cup markings as the vinegar flows into the

decanter. When three cups have flowed through, turn the coffeemaker

off and let stand for

l/2

hour.

After

l/2

hour, pour the vinegar back into the coffeemaker.

Place the empty decanter on the warmer plate. Turn the coffeemaker

on and let all of the vinegar flow through.

Discard the vinegar and the paper filter.

To flush out all traces of vinegar,

pour a decanter full of tap water

into the coffeemaker and allow it all to cycle through.

Discard the water and turn the coffeemaker off. Repeat steps

and

#8.

Decanter

Cleaning

Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the decanter.

Coffee and tea discolor these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish

stain inside the decanter. To remove these stains, follow these simple

steps:

1 .

Use a hot white vinegar solution and let it soak for about 20 minutes

and then discard.

Wash and rinse the decanter thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use

harsh abrasive cleaners. These will cause scratches which can lead

to breakage.
