Cleaning your Smart Coffee Maker before first use
Make sure your first cup of coffee is as good as it can be by cleaning your Smart Coffee Maker before its first use. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Wash the carafe, carafe lid and the filter basket in a mixture of mild detergent and water. Rinse each throughly.
2. Run a brew cycle with water only, without adding coffee and coffee filter.
3. When brewing is complete, turn your Smart Coffee Maker off, discard the water in the carafe and rinse the carafe, lid and filter basket.
Before you begin
1. Know your Wi-Fi network and password
2. Make sure your mobile device is running iOS® 8 or higher or Android™ 4.1× or higher
3. Make sure you’re connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network (atomi Smart can’t connect to 5GHz networks).
Connecting Your Device
Step 1: Download App
Download the atomi smart app from the App Store or Google Play and create an account. If you already have the app installed, please make sure to check for any updates as they will improve your experience with the atomi smart app.
Step 2: Plug In
Plug your atomi Smart Coffee Maker into any standard outlet.
Step 3: Add Device
1. Confirm that the Wi-Fi button and/or clock are flashing rapidly. If not, press and hold the Wi-Fi button for 10 seconds or unplug and plug the device again.
2. Select “Add Device” or click (+) at the top right corner of the devices screen.
3. Choose “Smart Coffee Maker” from the device list and press ‘Continue’.
Step 4: Connecting to Wi-Fi
1. Enter your Wi-Fi network and password. Press ‘Confirm’.
2. Press ‘Go to Connect’. On your phone’s Wi-Fi screen, select ‘atomi-smart-xxxx’
3. Once it connects, return to the atomi smart app.
4. Your device is now connected.
For iOS: After connecting to the atomi-smart-xxxx, return to the app by pressing ‘atomi smart’ on the top left part of the screen, or by switching back to the atomi smart window
For Android: After connecting to the atomi-smart-xxxx, some devices may display a message informing that you are “Connected without internet”. Please ignore this message and return to the app by pressing the back button on the bottom navigation bar (Do not press the back button on the top left part of the screen as this may bring you back to the ‘Settings’ page instead of the atomi smart app)
IMPORTANT: If you cannot see the ‘atomi-smart-xxxx’, press and hold the Wi-Fi button again for another 10 seconds and refresh your Wi-Fi list. The ‘atomi-smart-xxxx’ network should appear after a few seconds.
NOTE: If you still cannot see the atomi-smart-xxxx on your list, you may have an older model of our smart product that will require you to press and hold the Wi-Fi button another time until it starts blinking slowly.

Measuring your Coffee
For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground coffee measurement. Make sure you use medium grind coffee for a perfect brew.
Adding Water and Ground Coffee:
1 – Open the top lid of the Smart Coffee Maker.
2 – Place a 10-12 cup paper basket-style filter or the included reusable filter into the removable filter basket.
Note: If using paper filters, it is important that the sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the filter basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter before placing in the filter basket. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake to level the coffee.
3 – Fill the water reservoir with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces). For easy and accurate filling, the water markings on the water reservoir show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill past the “12 cup MAX line” or water will flow out of the Smart Coffee Maker.
Note: The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of water poured in the water reservoir. This is due to the absorption of water by the coffee grounds.
Using your Smart Coffee Maker without the atomi smart app
1 – After completing the steps in the Adding Water and Ground Coffee section and with the carafe and the filter basket securely in place, turn the Smart Coffee Maker on by pressing the POWER button once. The POWER button light will turn on to signal that the Smart Coffee Maker is on and brewing.
Note: Brew can be stopped by pressing the POWER button a second time.
2 – After the used coffee grounds have cooled, carefully remove the filter basket and discard them.
Note: The brew basket drawer is hot after brewing. Always allow the Smart Coffee Maker to cool down before cleaning.
3 – Make sure the Glass Coffee Carafe is empty and in place before starting to brew coffee.
4 – Be sure to turn your Smart Coffee Maker off when no longer using it.
*Wi-Fi button should be disabled to use TIMER and STRONG features. Make sure to turn Wi-Fi button back ON to control it with the atomi smart app.

4 – Press TIMER button to switch to hours.
5 – Once “00:00″ is blinking, set current hour by pressing the MINS/HOUR button.

Cleaning and Maintaining your Smart Coffee Maker
Daily Cleaning – Always unplug the Smart Coffee Maker and allow to cool before cleaning.
- Remove and wash the filter basket, permanent filter, carafe and carafe lid in a solution of hot water and mild liquid soap.
- Never use abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials.
- DO NOT put carafe and lid in the dishwasher.
CAUTION: Never immerse the Smart Coffee Maker itself in water, in any other liquid or place in the dishwasher.
1 – Fill the carafe with a solution of equal parts water and vinegar and let the solution stand in the carafe for approximately 20 minutes.
2. Discard the solution, then wash and rinse the carafe. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners that may scratch the carafe.
FAQ & Troubleshooting
In order to successfully connect Atomi Smart devices, a 2.4GHz connection is required.
The 2.4GHz frequency waves travel further than the 5GHz. This means that if your device is in another room or far from your phone, you will have a better signal reception (compared to 5Ghz) which is essential for your smart device to function correctly and stay online.
All modern routers come with 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Depending on your router type, these bands may appear as separate WiFi networks (Example: Name-2.4GHz and Name-5GHz) or combined. If you only have one WiFi network, you should still be able to connect since the Atomi Smart app automatically finds the 2.4GHz frequency when connecting to your router.
However, if you experience any issues, please follow the points below:
– Make sure that you are connecting to a 2.4GHz network
– Keep your mobile device close to the router during connection
– If you have two SSID for your WiFi (Example: Name-2.4GHz / Name-5GHz), please temporarily disable “Auto-Join” on your Name-5GHz network)
– If you have two SSID for your WiFi, make sure that your 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi have different names
– If your router gives the option to disable the 5GHz network, please disable it temporarily
– Disable any VPN apps/services in order to connect successfully
– If you are having issues to connect, turn on Airplane Mode (Keep only WiFi activated when connecting your smart device)
– Make sure that you’ve entered the correct password for your 2.4GHz WiFi on the “Select 2.4GHz Wi-Fi Network” screen (Case sensitive, and make sure that there are no extra spaces)
– If you have too many devices connected to your 2.4GHz (more than 10), please turn off some of them temporarily and retry connecting your smart device to the app
– If you have a Mesh router, you may not be able to manually switch to a 2.4GHz frequency. Since this frequency travels further than the 5Ghz, you can force your device to connect to it by moving your phone far from the router
– If you are still experiencing issues to connect, delete the app and reinstall it
– If the issue persists, restart your router
Make sure your atomi smart device is plugged in and the Wi-Fi light (or clock) is blinking. If not, unplug your atomi smart device and plug it back in to reboot.
