USING THE HOT  

WATER SYSTEM

Follow instructions in Before First Use on page 7.

  1.  Insert charcoal water filter 

Follow directions for the preparation  
and insertion of the filter on page 8.

  2.  Fill the hot  

water reservoir  

Open the water 
reservoir cover by 
lifting it up. Fill the 
hot water reservoir 
with water, making 
sure not to fill 
above the max  
fill line.

  3.   Heating   

Press the Hot Water On/Off button. The Hot 
Water On/Off button indicator light will 
illuminate. The Water Ready indicator will  
flash while the unit is heating. Once the unit 
has heated, the Water Ready indicator will 
become solid.

  4.   Dispensing  water 

To dispense water, be sure the safety switch, 
which is located below the dispensing lever,  
is in the unlocked position. Simply slide the 
safety switch to the left to unlock. Then place 
a cup on the drip tray and press the lever 
down – the unit dispenses up to 13 ounces of 
hot water at a time. If desired, return the safety 
lock to the locked position (to the right) after 
dispensing water.

accommodate tall mugs.

again flash until water reaches serving

in the display if more water is needed.

To turn off your Hot Water System at any  
time, press the Hot Water On/Off button. The 
indicator will turn off, but the Water Ready 
indicator will remain lit until water has cooled 
below serving temperature.

BREW PAUSE

 FEATURE

This feature interrupts the flow of coffee from 

the basket to let you pour that first cup mid-

brew. Because the flavor profile of coffee 

brewed at the start of a cycle differs from that 

brewed toward the end, be aware that using 

this feature will weaken the flavor strength of 

the finished pot.

NOTE:

 Removing carafe for more than 20 

seconds may cause filter basket to overflow.
