Please note the following: Your coffee should be a medium grind; a very fine grind could cause the filter basket to overflow. Scoop the ground coffee into the center of the gold tone filter and prepare your coffee as described above. After using the filter for some time, clean it with a soft brush or sponge – do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Fill the tank with cold, fresh water (d), press the filter basket push button release (G) to open the filter basket, insert a No. 4 paper filter or the gold tone filter, put in ground coffee and close the filter basket. For added convenience, when filling with or disposing of ground coffee, the filter basket can be easily taken off its hinge (e). The pause and serve feature prevents dripping when the carafe is removed to pour a cup before brewing is finished. Carafe should be immediately returned to the base to prevent the filter baket from overflowing. Auto-off: For your convenience and safety, the appliance will automatically switch off approximately 17 minutes the coffemaker is turned on. If brewing takes longer and your coffeemaker automatically switches off, although there is still water in the water tank, it has to be decalcified (see IV). IV Decalcifying If you have hard water and you use your coffeemaker without a water filter, it has to be decalcified regularly. When using the water filter cartridge and exchanging it regularly, you ordinarily will not need to decalcify. However, if your coffeemaker takes longer than usual to brew it should be decalcified.
