Funky Coffee Maker --isn't working

I have the same issue. Please help.

It sounds like there's a problem with Charcoal Water Filter. What it does is it eliminates chlorine, calcium, bad tastes and odors on the brewed coffee. You can try to clean it manually or if that doesn't work, replacing that might fix the problem.

Keep us updated. Hope that helps.

1/3 cup of white vinegar and 2/3 cup of water. Run through brew cycle. Run brew cycle again with plain water.

Hello FloydBob, The Cuisinart DCC-1200 has the ability to program the auto-off function that keeps your coffee warmer plate on after brewing is complete.

The unit lets you select the time increments from zero up to 4 hours.

See page 6 of the attached manual for the full instructions for reprogramming the coffee maker.

To program the Variable Auto Off:
1. Turn the FUNCTION KNOB to the “Auto Off”
position. Press and hold the “Hour” button
for 2 seconds. The clock display will start
blinking.
2. Program the coffeemaker to shut off from
zero to four hours after brew cycle is
finished by using the “Hour” and “Minute”
push-buttons.

I figured you might also like to have a complete instruction/owners manual so you can have access for any other questions you might have about your coffee maker, in the future.

Set the function knob to CLOCK
Press and hold the HR button for a few seconds if the clock display time is not flashing
Once display time is flashing:
Press and release the HR button a few times for it to advance - it will say "PM" on the display if it is set for PM
Press and release the MIN button to set the mins

Hello handkrobbins,
Yes, you can buy the heater elements but not from Cuisinart directly. You will need to find a small appliance repair shop to order it for you. I hope this was helpful to you. Positive feedback is appreciated. Good luck and regards, NormanZ

Turn the function knob to Auto Off
Hold down the hour button til you see the clock display blinking
you can then use the Hour and Minute buttons to program how long you want the coffee maker to stay on.
You can choose from 0 minutes (seems to be what you have it set on now) to 4 hours.

Is this it? http://www.smallappliance.com/product.asp?cur=USD&sid=18954&gid=18960&mid=8&pid=6226&prdCls=P&shopBy=Brand
