Troubleshooting PROBLEM Filter basket overflows or coffee brews slowly. Coffee not brewing/unit will not turn on. PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION • The "BOLD" or 1-4 cup brew option is recommended for brewing decaffeinated coffee. • Excessive amounts of coffee. • Coffee ground too finely (not automatic drip grind). • Carafe not securely placed on keep-warm plate or swivel filter basket holder not closed completely. • Carafe removed during brewing for more than 20 seconds and not placed securely back on keep- warm plate. • Coffee maker needs cleaning. • Coffee grounds between paper filter and filter basket. • Paper filter not open and in proper position. • Press the seamed edges of paper filter before inserting into basket. • Rinse filter basket before inserting paper filter so the edges will remain pressed against the sides of the basket. • Poor-quality paper filter. • Water reservoir is empty. • Unit is unplugged. • Power outage. • Power surge. Unplug; then plug the unit back in. • Clock requires reset after power outage. 10
