OVERHEAT PROTECTION
For safety purposes, the brewer will automatically shut down if it overheats.
(The indicator light will blink rapidly as a warning just prior to the unit
shutting down.) In most cases, overheating is due to brewing being started
without water added. If, after the shutdown, water is added and the brew
button is pressed, the indicator light will come back on solid and brewing
will begin as normal. If no water is added, the indicator light will still come
back on solid, but the unit will not brew for several minutes to allow the unit
to cool down. (The machine will make noise as it's cooling down.) In order
to begin brewing sooner, turn the unit o, add water, then press the button
to begin brewing.
TIPS
• For a stronger cup of coee made with a K-Cup®, use less water; for
a weaker cup, use more water.
• For best results, rinse the reusable coee filter and capsule receptacle
after every use.
• If the unit is making a whining noise, one of the (hollow) needles may be
clogged. To unclog, try the self-cleaning feature on p. 15. If still clogged,
carefully poke with a paper clip or plastic toothpick to unclog. (Do not
use a wooden toothpick, which could splinter or break).
