Note: When using the Cuisinart filter, be sure that the filter handle is facing away from the grinder basket. If you do not do so, the handle may interfere with the flow of ground coffee into the filter basket. Also note: a permanent filter may allow some ground coffee to flow into carafe. The filter basket will help to keep the filter open, but when using a paper filter, be sure that the filter is completely open while touching the side walls and bottom of the basket. Place filter basket lid in place. Close filter door. 4. Close the Reservoir Lid Press down to lock. The Grind & Brew™ Automatic coffeemaker is equipped with a Safety Interlock System. Because grinder blades spin during operation, the Grind & Brew™ coffeemaker will not operate if the cover of the unit is open or the grinder cover is left out. If you try to turn the unit on with the cover open, the unit will beep continuously until the missing parts are installed and you close the lid. The unit will also beep if you open the lid during the brewing process. The grinder will stop grinding or, if brewing, the brewing will stop. Once the missing parts are installed and the cover is closed, the beeping stops. The brewing process can be restarted by pressing the On button. Restarting the process will not affect coffee results. If you do not want the grinder to come on again, press the Grind Off button before pressing the On button. Once the lid is closed, the beeping will stop, and the grind and brew process will start again from the beginning. 5. Before Brewing Coffee Make sure you have replaced the glass carafe in its position on the warming plate and have placed a filter in the filter basket. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. 12:00 will appear until you set the time. This will not interfere with the operation of the coffeemaker. To set clock, see the Programming Your Coffeemaker section, page 8. Check to see that the Automatic-Off Time is as you desire. For information on these features see Programming Your Coffeemaker on page 8. 10 6. Power Unit a) Immediate grinding and brewing: Press the on button. The indicator will light and the process will begin. b) Programmed brewing: Press the Program button. The indicator will light and the display will show the programmed time for as long as the button is depressed. The display reverts back to time of day once the button is released. To set the programmed time, see Programming Your Coffeemaker on page 8. 7. Select Cups Setting The 1-4 cup setting button is used when you make small amounts of coffee. Normal coffeemakers will produce a colder batch of coffee when smaller amounts are made, because the heater doesn't have enough time to properly warm up to heat a small amount. The 1-4 setting basically double heats the water, making your smaller amount as piping hot as a full pot would be. To use: When making a smaller amount, press the 1-4 button on the control panel after turning on the unit. The indicator light will illuminate. Note that the 1-4 button can be set at any time. 8. During and After Brewing The Brew Pause™ feature allows you to remove the carafe from the heater during mid-brew. The brewing process does not stop during this period; only the flow of coffee from the basket stops. Do not remove the carafe for longer than 30 seconds or the coffee may overflow the basket. While we offer this feature, we do not recommend that you pour coffee before the cycle has reached completion, since the coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a flavor profile which is very different from the coffee made at the end of the cycle. Removing a cup during the brewing cycle will alter the flavor of the finished pot. When the brewing cycle is completed, five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue to stream from the filter for several seconds. Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir it before serving to blend the flavors. The coffee at the bottom of the carafe will be somewhat stronger than the coffee at the top.
