If you want to make l-3 cups of coffee, press the flavor selector button (figure 9). so effectively that there is virtually no coffee-drip onto the warming plate (one drop, at most). Once the carafe is replaced, the brewing cycle and the flow of coffee into the carafe are resumed. CAUTION: If coffee does drip onto the warming plate after removal of the carafe, it is usually an indication that too much ground coffee has been placed into the paper filter. This causes the water that jets into the filter cone to overflow between the paper filter and the sides of the filter cone. The overflow carries coffee grounds that interfere with the snap-shut action of the filter holder, thus allowing brewed coffee to continue to drip through. If this blockage and subsequent dripping do occur, replace the glass carafe immediately and allow the full brewing cycle to run its course. [. . . ] Never immerse the appliance itself in water or any other liquid. To clean, simply wipe off with a soft, damp cloth. Never use a cloth to clean the inside of the water chamber, as this might leave fuzzy deposits in the chamber. Just rinse with cold water periodically. [. . . ]
