How To Prepare Cuisinart Coffee Maker For Use

For the first time you use your Cuisinart coffee maker, run a brew cycle without any coffee or coffee filters.

Step 1: Activate the brew mode by setting the function knob. If you have a brewing button, you may use that.

Step 2: Click ON/OFF now. The beginning of the procedure is indicated by a light or a sound, depending on the Cuisinart coffee maker model you have. This is when the brewing cycle begins.

Step 3: Turn the coffee maker off when the cycle has completed. On most Cuisinart coffee makers, the same button is used to turn on and off.

Certain Cuisinart coffee makers will turn off automatically once the brewing cycle is completed, depending on the model. You can check your Cuisinart coffee maker’s manual to see if that feature is available.
