Safety first: No internal repair is needed for basic setup issues.

1. Set the clock accurately
- Ensure the current time is set correctly on the display.
2. Program auto-brew
- Press PROGRAM or AUTO button and set the desired brew time.
- Confirm the auto-brew icon appears, indicating the schedule is active.
3. Check power stability
- Avoid unplugging the unit or using switched outlets overnight.
4. Test manual brew
- Verify that manual brewing works; if not, resolve that issue first.
5. Control board replacement
- If all settings are correct and auto-brew still never starts, the timer circuit on the control board may be defective and require replacement.

Auto-brew (programmed start) does not work; coffee maker does not start at the set time.
