FEATURES AND BENEFITS Every feature of the Coffee BarTM Classic 10-cup Coffeemaker has been designed for ease of use. We made a large water window which is easily viewed from the front of the machine, and the reservoir lid opens to the back to give easy access for filling. The removable filter basket liner is molded in black plastic to avoid unsightly staining. We put rubber feet on the front of the machine only, so it's easy to move around on the countertop, yet won't slide as you set the controls. We also reasoned that an easy-to-hold carafe would allow you more control while pouring, helping to avoid spills. And we placed the carafe markings next to the handle, not on the side of the pot, so you can easily see them as you fill the carafe with water. 1 2 3 10 4 8 5 6 6 4 7 2 8a 8b 8c 9 10 11 cups 10 50 oz. 8 40 6 30 4 20 ® 2 10 Off On 5-10 1-4 1. Reservoir Cover 2. Flavor System Settings: Give a guideline for optimum flavor extraction based on number of cups being brewed. Set to "1-4 " to improve extraction and flavor when making fewer than 5 cups of coffee. Simply set the red dial for the number of cups of coffee you are brewing, and the flavor system ensures great coffee bar flavor. 3. Water Reservoir 4. Filter Basket (Holds #4 paper cone filter or permanent cone filter) 5. Basket Holder 6. Water Window: Markings indicate water needed to make corresponding cups of brewed coffee. 7. Brew Pause: Stops flow of coffee from basket when carafe is removed from heater plate, so a cup can be poured in mid-brew, if desired. Since the extraction rate varies during the brew cycle, we recommend allowing the brewing cycle to finish before pouring any coffee. 8. Carafe: a. Taste Keeper™ Lid: Minimizes oxygen flow into carafe to help preserve coffee flavor. b. Comfort Grip Handle: Safe, controlled pouring. c. Brewed Coffee Markings: These are located close to the handle for easier viewing. 9. Warming Plate 10. Cord Storage: Unused cord is easily pushed into the bottom of coffeemaker to keep counters neat. 11. Control Panel 4
