How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker before removing the water reservoir if it is integrated with the filter holder.

  • 1. Replace the water filter
    • Remove the reservoir and locate the charcoal filter holder (usually clips into the bottom or side).
    • Open the holder and discard the old filter cartridge.
    • Soak the new Sunbeam-compatible charcoal filter in water for 5–10 minutes, then rinse.
    • Install the new filter into the holder and reattach to the reservoir.
  • 2. Reset the filter indicator
    • Press and hold the FILTER or RESET button for 3–5 seconds until the icon clears.
  • 3. Optional: run a rinse cycle
    • Fill the reservoir with fresh water and run a brew cycle without coffee to flush the new filter.
