Using the Makita ADCM501Z Coffee Maker is a breeze. First, make sure you have a fully - charged 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery (sold separately) installed. Then, add water to the reservoir. You can use either ground coffee or single - serve packs. Pour the grounds directly into the permanent drip filter if you're using ground coffee. Once everything is set up, switch on the coffee maker. It will start brewing, and you'll have a 5 - ounce cup of coffee in about 5 minutes. It can brew up to three 5 - ounce cups on a single charge of the 5.0Ah battery. Remember to use only genuine Makita batteries and chargers. The coffee maker has a boil - dry protection feature, so if there's not enough water, it will automatically turn off. When you're done using it, let it cool down. Clean the permanent drip filter regularly to keep your coffee tasting great. The coffee maker comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so you can use it with confidence.
