Before Using For The First Time
Please check all packaging material carefully before discarding. Many accessory parts are contained within the packaging material. Before using your Single-Serve Coffee Maker, clean the entire appliance according to the cleaning instructions. Wash the reusable brew cup and cup holder in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry. If desired, wipe the exterior of the coffee maker with a soft, damp cloth. Note: Do not wash any parts in the dishwasher and do not immerse the coffee maker in water or any other liquid. This may permanently damage the product and void the warranty. To remove any manufacturing residues that may reside in the appliance, we recommend running at least one full brew cycle of water and discarding the water when complete.
Using Your Single-Serve Coffee Maker
- Place the appliance on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
- Plug the cord into a 120-volt, AC electric outlet only.
- Press the lid release button (Figure 1) to open the cover.
Using the cup you’re brewing into, add cold water to the reservoir.
Note
The maximum capacity of the Single-Serve Coffee Maker is 14 fluid oz. (1¾ cups). Never put more than this amount into the reservoir or the water will overflow.- Position the cup holder (Figure 2) in place. Add a K-cup or the reusable brew cup (Figure 3) with coffee grounds. Be sure that the “front” arrow faces the front of the coffee maker. Press down on the cover to lock it in place. The cover will not lock if the reusable brew cup is not inserted properly.

The piercer is sharp, do not touch it. 
Center a cup on the drip tray.

Make sure the cup is suitable for hot liquids.- Press the power button. The light will illuminate. The coffeemaker and light will turn off automatically at the end of the brew cycle. Do not remove the cup before the coffeemaker has turned off.
K-CUP BREWING – Any standard K-Cup will work
Place the cup holder in the coffee maker. Place a K-cup into the cup holder. Using the cup you’re brewing into (maximum 14 oz.), add cold water to the reservoir. Close and lock the cover, then center a heat-safe cup on the drip tray and press the power button. Brewing will be complete in under 5 minutes.
GROUND COFFEE BREWING – Use standard, drip grind coffee
Place the cup holder in the coffee maker. Add two heaping tablespoons of grounds into the reusable brew cup, then close and place into the cup holder.

Close and lock the cover. Place the instant mix, per package directions, in a heat-safe cup, then center on the drip tray and press the power button. When the brewing is complete, approximately 5 minutes, stir the contents.
Note
Adjust the amounts to taste. A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of manufacturing oils – this is normal. Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling – this is normal.
Cleaning Your Single-Serve Coffee Maker
- Allow the Single-Serve Coffee Maker to turn off automatically and unplug from the electrical outlet. Allow the entire appliance to cool before cleaning.
- Press the lid release button to release the cover. Remove and discard the used grounds, K-cups, etc. from the reusable brew cup or cup holder.
- Wash the reusable brew cup and a cup holder in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Periodically clean out the nozzle in the cup holder with a toothpick or bent paperclip. This will dislodge any stuck coffee grounds. Caution: The piercer inside the cup holder is sharp, do not touch it.
- The exterior of the Single-Serve Coffee Maker can be wiped clean with a damp cloth after it has been unplugged and the base is cool.
- Do not clean the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth or paper towel. This may leave particles in the chambers that may clog small openings in your coffee maker. Rinse with cold water periodically.
- Decalcify the Single-Serve Coffee Maker periodically. See the “Decalcifying Your Single-Serve Coffee Maker” section in this manual. This appliance has no user-serviceable parts.
Decalcifying Your Single-Serve Coffee Maker
The Single-Serve Coffee Maker must be decalcified periodically. Over time, mineral deposits build up on internal parts and affect the operation of the appliance. The frequency of decalcification depends on the hardness of your water and how often you use the coffee maker. Indications that decalcifying is necessary are:
- Increased noise during use
- Excessive steaming
- Longer brewing times
- The pumping action stops before all of the water has been pumped from the water reservoir
If usage is regular, decalcifying should be carried out as follows:
- With soft water, decalcify once every month
- With medium water, decalcify every 2 weeks
- With hard water, decalcify every week
We recommend the use of vinegar for decalcifying.
- Pour 14 ounces of fresh, cool, undiluted white household vinegar into the water reservoir.
NOTE
Do not use coffee grounds and do not dilute vinegar with water. - Place an adequately sized cup suitable for hot liquids in place on the drip tray.
- Press the power button.
- When the brew cycle is complete and the Single-Serve Coffee Maker has cooled, repeat the process above except use clear, cool water in place of vinegar to rinse any remaining traces of the vinegar from the system. Repeat twice using clean, cool water each time.
