Note: We recommend changing the water filter every 60 days or 60 uses – more often if you have hard water. Replacement water filters can be purchased in stores, by calling customer service, or through the Cuisinart website. NOTE: Caution must be used when inserting the charcoal filter. Improper placement in the holder can cause tearing of the filter skin. 3. Fill the water reservoir: When filling the coffeemaker with water, refer to the carafe height markings and fill to the desired number of cups.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffeemaker. Never immerse base unit in water or other liquid. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints and other blemishes on the stainless steel housing can be washed off with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wipe warming plate with a clean, damp cloth.
