CHARCOAL WATER FILTER Your coffeemaker comes with a charcoal water filter that eliminates chlorine, bad tastes and odors from tap water. Inserting the Water Filter • Remove the filter from polybag and soak it, fully immersed, in cold tap water for 15 minutes. • Lift the charcoal water filter holder out of the water reservoir. • Press down on the filter compartment and pull toward you to open. • Place filter into the holder and snap it closed. Be careful - improper placement can tear the filter skin. • Flush filter by running cold tap water through holes in bottom of compartment for 10 seconds. • Allow the filter to drain completely. • Slide the charcoal water filter holder back into the channel in the water reservoir, pushing it down to the base of the unit. NOTE: We recommend changing the charcoal water filter every 60 days or after 60 uses, and more often if you have hard water. Replacement filters can be purchased in stores by calling Cuisinart customer service, or at www. cuisinart.com. BEFORE BREWING YOUR FIRST POT OF COFFEE During the manufacturing process, dust can get trapped in your coffeemaker. We recommend flushing out the system before brewing your first pot of coffee. Simply follow Making Coffee with Pre-Ground Beans, page 10. Be sure to use only water and a paper filter...no coffee! Once you've done that, brew a pot of real coffee and get ready to enjoy Cuisinart at its best! MAKING COFFEE WITH WHOLE BEANS Follow instructions for Before Brewing Your First Pot of Coffee, above. 1. Insert Charcoal Water Filter Follow directions for the preperation and insertion of the charcoal water filter at left. 2. Fill the Water Reservoir Open the reservoir lid and pour in water, using the water level window indicator to measure the number of cups desired. NOTE: Do not exceed the 10-cup line. Doing so could cause carafe to overflow. There must be a minimum of 4 cups of water in the water reservoir to begin the brew cycle. 8
