[. . . ] Automatic Grind & BrewTM Coffeemaker DGB-300 For your safety and continued enjoyment of this product, always read the instruction book carefully before using. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and/or injury to persons, including the following: 1. To protect against electric shock, do not place cord, plug, or base unit in water or other liquids. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance. [. . . ] To change the preset time, press and hold the "On/Off" button until the red "power" light begins to flash. This signals that you have entered the "Set Automatic Shutoff" mode. 2. Setting the Program Time: When you press the "Program Set" button, it displays the current program time, and the green light next to the button will light. If no time appears when the button is pressed and the green light turns off at the release of the button, it means that no program time has been set. The "Programmed" mode cannot be entered until the program time has been set. 10 Press the "Hours" and "Minutes" buttons to scroll forward through the digits until desired time appears. The first setting which appears is preset at "4:00" and the next display will be "0:00", since four hours is the maximum Automatic Shutoff setting. Pressing and holding either button will allow you to scroll continuously, slowly at first, and then to accelerate to the rate of about three digits per second. As the desired time setting approaches, release the button and then press repeatedly to advance one digit at a time. The Automatic Shutoff Time (ASO) may be programmed either before or during coffee brewing. If you do so, the Automatic Grind & BrewTM will automatically account for any time that has already elapsed after brewing. For example, if you set the ASO for 40 minutes and 25 minutes have already elapsed, the Grind & BrewTM will shut off automatically after 15 minutes (40 minutes minus the 25 elapsed equals 15 minutes). the simplest way to reduce the heat is to shut off the coffeemaker and allow coffee to cool before transfer to a thermal carafe. Never use the carafe on a heated stovetop. To Set Temperature: Press the "Set Temp" button on your coffeemaker. The time display will disappear and only the Temperature Display remains. The (-) and (+) buttons (same as Hours and Minutes, respectively) can then be used to increase or decrease the holding temperature. The selected temperature will remain programmed until you change it or until the coffeemaker is unplugged. INCREASING THE TEMPERATURE: DECREASING THE TEMPERATURE: VARIABLE KEEP WARM TEMPERATURE The Automatic Grind & BrewTM has a method of setting the holding temperature of the coffee in the carafe. The display appears as a series of elliptical or oval-shaped dots across the lower portion of the digital readout, and indicates the selected temperature relative to the holding temperature preset at the factory. pm Exiting "Set Temperature" Mode: There are three ways to exit "Set Temperature" mode: 1. If neither the (-) nor (+) button is pressed for a period of five seconds, the "Set Temperature" mode will be exited. NOTE: If, at any time during the life of the coffeemaker, the temperature display bar begins to flash and the Temp Set button has no effect on the display, this indicates damage to the Coffee Temperature Monitor. Because there are no user serviceable parts inside, the coffeemaker must be returned to an authorized Cuisinart Repair Center if servicing is desired. If you use a lot of milk in your coffee, set temperature higher than normal. Please note that the heater plate on the coffeemaker is not powerful enough to raise the temperature of the coffee in the pot, once coffee has been brewed. This feature is designed as a "preset" and will affect the coffee during the brewing cycle. [. . . ] If the self-clean light no longer flashes, turn the coffeemaker to OFF and then run one cycle of fresh cold water through the unit before using the unit again to brew coffee. Note on the SelfClean Function: Pressing the "Self-Clean" button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return the coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing On/Off will also exit the Self-Clean mode and turn the coffeemaker OFF. 14 LIMITED THREE YEAR WARRANTY This warranty supersedes all previous warranties on Cuisinart® Coffee BarTM Automatic Grind & BrewTM Coffeemakers.
