DeLonghi DC76T - Preparation and Filling

HOW TO USE YOUR COFFEE MAKER
PREPARING YOUR COFFEE MAKER FOR USE
• Carefully unpack the coffee maker and remove all packaging materials.
• Before making coffee in your coffee maker, thoroughly clean the carafe,
carafe lid and filter basket with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not
use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
• You may wipe the warming plate with a clean, damp cloth. However, do
not immerse the coffee maker in water or other liquid.
• Prior to brewing your first pot of coffee, operate coffee maker once or
twice with water but without ground coffee or a paper filter. This will
remove any dust that may have settled inside the coffee maker which
might affect the flavor of coffee.
IMPORTANT: Use cold water for best results.
PREPARING COFFEE MAKER FOR BREWING COFFEE
• Place your coffee maker on a flat, level surface away from any edge.
• Plug the unit into a 120 volt 60 Hz AC only outlet.
• The lid of the glass carafe must be placed properly on the carafe during
the brewing process and the carafe must be set on the warming plate.
• The filter basket door must be properly closed during brewing process.
CAUTION: If the filter basket door is not completely closed, the Pause
& Serve feature will not function properly. It could cause hot water or
hot coffee to overflow.
Filling the water reservoir
• Open the hinged water reservoir cover located at the top of the coffee
maker. Fill the glass carafe with the desired amount of cold water. Empty
the water from the carafe into the water reservoir. The water window
indicates how much water is in the container. Close the hinged lid. Place
the glass carafe with the lid in place on the warming plate.
