OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Brewing Coffee - Immediate Start

adjusted to suit your individual tastes.
NOTE: 1 scoop = 1 tablespoon.

scoops of whole bean coffee. DO NOT EXCEED THE 8-SCOOP
MAXIMUM.

ed in Assembly, Lid on Basket is secured and Lid to Assembly is
closed before attempting to operate unit.

We recommend using 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of ground coffee beans
for every brewed cup of coffee, which may be adjusted to suit your
individual tastes. See PROGRAMMING THE MILL for complete pro-
cedure.
6. You are now ready to initiate the automatic mill and brew process. If
you wish to use the delay timer so you can program the coffee
maker to mill and brew later, please read BREWING COFFEE -
PROGRAMMING THE DELAY TIMER.

Programming the Mill
NOTE: If you desire a medium grind, your machine is automatically pre-
set to 4 or a medium grind; refer to step 2 below. If you wish to pro-
gram a finer or coarser grind, start with step 1.
1. To set the mill to grind the beans to the desired level of coarseness,
press the Select Button, , to select different coarseness levels.
Seven levels of coarseness are available. Coarseness is deter-
mined by the length of time milled - the longer the time, the finer the
grind the stronger the flavor. Setting 1 will mill the beans for 15 sec-
onds. Setting 7 will mill the beans for 40 seconds. If you do not
select a setting the unit will automatically default to setting 4. Make
sure the Mill Light is turned off.
NOTE: If you wish to use pre-ground coffee instead of whole coffee
beans, press the Mill Button, , and make sure the Mill Indicator
Light is on. If you are using whole coffee beans, then the light
should be off.
2. Press the Power Button, , to initiate the mill and brew process; the
Power Light will turn on. Mill will start. After mill stops, unit will auto-
matically switch to brewing operation. To interrupt milling or brewing
press the Power Button, , and the Power Light will turn off.
CAUTION: Do not open Mill & Brew™ Lid until blades and unit
operation has come to a complete stop.
3. After brewing is complete, remove Carafe from Warming Plate and
serve. Coffee Maker Warming Plate will cycle on and off to maintain
proper coffee temperature for one hour before it automatically shuts
off and the Power Light turns off.
4. Unplug and allow unit to cool for 10 minutes between cycles. Allow
to cool completely before attempting to clean.
WARNING: Warming Plate is hot! Do not touch bottom of Carafe or
Warming Plate during or after brewing.
NOTE: After the unit is turned off or automatically shuts off after one
hour, mill coarseness setting will default to level 4 (medium grind).
Coarseness setting will also default to level 4 in the event of power inter-
ruption.
NOTE: The amount of coffee in the Carafe may be slightly less than the
amount of water placed in the Water Reservoir, since some of the water
is absorbed by the coffee grounds.

Mineral Deposits / Decalcifying

machine, then the appliance requires decalcification.
The frequency of decalcification depends on the hardness of water used.
It is suggested that this unit be descaled according to the following
intervals:
• Soft water: every 80 brewing cycles
• Hard water: every 40 brewing cycles
