Important compatibility notes
- The booklet specifies a "#2 paper filter" and, in its safeguards, a "standard basket paper filter"; it does not otherwise describe the shape.
- Use either a paper filter or the nylon permanent filter, not both: the booklet lists using them together as a cause of overflow.
- Cuisinart warns that other permanent filters may cause this coffee maker to overflow.
