• Make sure the brewer main power switch is in the "On" position.  The main power switch in the very back should have the straight line "|" side pushed in (the "O" is the off position).
  • Then, after adding (cold or room temperature) water, when you press the brew button on the side, the arm should start immediately swirling.
  • Make sure to push hard on the button (it's mechanical!)
  • If the arm doesn't swirl, double-check that the outlet is still fine (no GFCI trip)
