Automatic Shut Off
1: Once your coffeemaker is on, the coffee in the decanter will stay hot for 2
hours.
Then, as a safety feature,
the coffeemaker will shut itself off.
2. You will know that your coffeemaker has automatically shut off when the red AUTO OFF LIGHT has appeared
in the lower right hand corner of the clock display.
3. To keep your coffee hot for an additional 2 hours, slide the control switch to off and then back to on.
4. Move the control switch to off if you empty the decanter before the end of the 2 hour period.
Cleaning Is A Must
Your coffeemaker must be delimed when you begin to notice an increase in steaming. If the pumping action
stops before all the water has been pumped out of the machine, then the appliance requires deliming.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of water used. The following table gives the recommended
cleaning intervals.
RECOMMENDED CLEANING SCHEDULE
Type of Water
Cleaning Frequency
Soft water
every 100 brew cycles
Hard water
every 50 brew cycles
Your coffeemaker may be delimed by using MR. COFFEE CLEANER@ or vinegar. For best results, use MR. COFFEE
CLEANER. It works better than vinegar and has no unpleasant odor.
Using Mr. Coffee Cleaner:
