• Always use a good quality filter to
obtain the best results possible.
• Take care not to spill loose coffee
grounds between paper filter and
filter basket.
• Make sure the filter basket is securely
in place.
• The carafe lid or mug(s) must be
screwed tightly in place.
• The carafe or mug(s) must be placed
properly and level on the base before
starting brew cycle.
• Mugs must be flush with mug guides
for coffee to flow properly.
• Always place coffeemaker on a flat,
even surface. When brewing into
two mugs, coffeemaker must be

mugs.

Carafe Safety Precautions

The thermal carafe provided with your coffeemaker has a fragile, double-walled
glass liner.
• Potential danger for personal injury if
you fail to read and follow these
safety precautions.
• Glass is fragile and can break which
could result in personal injury.
• Do not use a carafe with a cracked
glass liner or a carafe having a loose
or weakened handle.
• This carafe is designed to be used
only on the base of your coffeemaker.
Do not use on a gas or electric
rangetop, or in a microwave or
conventional oven.
• To avoid breakage, handle carafe with
care. Avoid impact. Glass will break
as a result of impact. Use care when
filling with water to avoid hitting
faucet.
• Allow to cool before washing or
adding liquids.
• Do not set carafe on a hot surface.

• Press the seamed edge of the paper
filter toward the center of paper filter
before inserting into filter basket so
that the paper filter fits the shape of
the filter basket.
• Rinse filter basket with water before
inserting paper filter into basket. The
wet surface of the basket helps the
paper adhere to the basket.
• For optimal holding temperature,
rinse the inside of the carafe or mugs
with hot water before brewing.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads,
abrasive cleanser, or any other
materials that may scratch.
• Do not place fingers inside carafe.
When handling, be careful if wearing
any hand jewelry, especially diamond
rings. Jewelry can scratch the glass,
which increases possibility of
breakage.
• Do not bump carafe.
• Discard carafe if it is cracked.
• To avoid accidents, do not pour in
the direction of people.
• If stirring in the carafe, use only
wooden, plastic, or rubber utensils.
Do not use metal utensils.
• Follow the above safety precautions
carefully to avoid serious burn injuries
which may result if breakage occurs
while carafe holds heated liquids.
