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. [. . . ] Press any button besides the "Hours" or "Minutes" button. This will exit the "Time Set" and activate the selected function. If neither the "Hours" nor "Minutes" button is pressed for a period of five seconds, the "Time Set" mode will be exited. PROGRAMMING AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF TIME The Automatic Shutoff Time can be programmed anywhere from immediate shutoff after completion of the brew cycle up to four hours. The 0:00 setting shuts the unit off immediately after brewing is complete. To check the current setting, press and hold the "On/Off" button and the Automatic Shutoff Time will be displayed. To change the preset time, press and hold the "On/Off" button until the red "power" light and LCD display begin to flash. This signals that you have entered the "Set Automatic Shutoff" mode. Press the "Hours" and "Minutes" buttons to scroll forward through the digits until desired time appears. When it's at "4:00", the next press key of "hour" will roll back to "0:00", since four hours is the maximum Automatic Shutoff setting. Setting the Program Time: When you press the "Program Set" button, it displays the current program time (default time 12:00 p. m. ). Entering "Set Program Time" Mode: Press and hold the "Program Set" button (about 2 seconds) until the green light and LCD display begin to flash. This signals that you have entered the "Set Program Time" mode. The desired time can be set by pressing the "Hours" and "Minutes" buttons to scroll forward through the digits. Pressing and holding either button will allow you 8 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). 1.

Place the filter in the holder and close the water filter holder; you will hear a snap indicating it is in place. Improper placement in the holder can cause tearing of the filter skin.
