Using Your Coffeemaker for the First Time
Make sure your first cup of coffee is as good as can be by cleaning your CHEFMAN
Coffeemaker before its first use. Just follow these simple steps:
•
Wash the carafe, carafe lid and the filter basket in a mixture of mild detergent
and water. Rinse each thoroughly (please refer to the parts diagram listed above).
•
Replace all the parts and close the lid. Then, run a brew cycle with water only,
without adding coffee and coffee filter.
•
When brewing is complete, turn your coffeemaker off, discard the water in the
carafe and rinse the carafe, carafe lid, and filter basket.
Your coffeemaker is now ready to use. Enjoy it!
