A: Hello Karen! Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your Mr. Coffee Programmable Coffee Maker. We’re sorry to hear that the automatic shut-off feature isn’t functioning as expected. This feature is designed to provide convenience and safety, so we understand how important it is for it to work properly. To help resolve this issue, we recommend the following steps: 1. Ensure the coffee maker is properly plugged in and powered on. 2. Check the programming settings to confirm the auto-shutoff feature is enabled. 3. Allow the coffee maker to sit idle for 2 hours after brewing, as the auto-shutoff typically activates after this period. If the issue persists after trying these steps, it’s possible there may be a malfunction with the unit. In this case, we recommend reaching out to our consumer care team select "contact us" from the drop-down menu after clicking the question mark logo in the top right corner, which will direct you to our contact web form.

A: Hello Judy! Thank you for your question about the Mr. Coffee 12‑Cup Programmable Coffee Maker. The small round hole you see in the back of the reservoir area is part of the design. It serves as a vent/drain opening to help prevent accidental overfilling and to allow excess water or steam to safely escape. This ensures the coffeemaker operates properly and helps protect the internal components. We hope this clarifies the purpose of the opening, and we appreciate you reaching out to us. If you require our assistance, please contact us using the Contact Us form on the official website or talk to our experts Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5PM ETC, so we can help you further. Thank you! Mr. Coffee Consumer Care Team

A: Hello, thank you for your inquiry. The Clean function on your 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker is designed to remove mineral buildup and old coffee residue from inside the machine so it keeps brewing great. How it works: You add a cleaning mixture (usually 4 cups white vinegar + 8 cups water) to the reservoir. Start the Clean cycle, the machine runs a slow, thorough rinse through all the internal parts. When it’s done, run two cycles of plain water to rinse everything out. Do you need to add anything? Yes, vinegar and water (or a coffee-maker cleaning solution). Nothing else is needed. How often? About every 4–6 weeks, depending on your water hardness. If you have anymore questions, please reach out to us directly via our official Mr. Coffee website contact-us page, and we will be happy to assist you. Thank you and have a good day!
