840162000 ENnv02.qxd 4/24/07 12:28 PM Page 9 Troubleshooting POTENTIAL PROBLEM Filter basket overflows or coffee brews slowly. Coffee leaks onto base. Coffee tastes bad. Coffee sediment in cup. PROBABLE CAUSE • Filter basket is not securely in place. See How to Make Coffee. • Carafe not securely placed on Base. • Excessive amounts of coffee. • Coffee ground too finely (not automatic drip grind). • Carafe removed during brewing for more than 15 seconds and not placed securely back on Base. • Coffeemaker needs cleaning. If using a paper filter: • Coffee grounds between paper filter and filter basket. • Paper filter not open and in proper position. • Rinse filter basket before inserting paper filter so the edges will remain pressed against the sides of the basket. • Poor quality paper filter. • Coffee filter basket needs cleaning. • Coffeemaker needs cleaning. • Coffee ground other than automatic drip. • Coffee-to-water ratio unbalanced. Adjust for personal preference. • Poor coffee quality and freshness. • Poor water quality (use filtered or bottled water). • Use paper filter instead of permanent stainless steel coffee filter. 9
