10-CUP COFFEEMAKER
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Always make sure the unit is off by
removing the plug from the electrical
outlet before cleaning.
Lift up the Coffeemaker reservoir cover.
Remove and discard the paper filter and
ground coffee. The filter basket can be washed
in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly,
or cleaned in the upper rack of the dishwasher.
Dry all parts after use.
Do not put any water in the unit once
the filter basket has been removed.
Wipe the area under the filter basket
with a damp cloth.
Remove the carafe from the resting plate.
Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and
lid can be washed in warm, soapy water and
rinsed thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher.
The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on
the upper rack only.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh
cleansers on any part of the Coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other
liquids. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean,
damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints
and other blemishes on the housing can be
washed off with soap and water or a
nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wipe resting
plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use
rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean
the resting plate. Do not dry the inside of the
water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.
DESCALING
Descaling refers to the removal of calcium
deposits that form over time on the metal parts
of the Coffeemaker.
To Descale Your Coffeemaker
Depending on the mineral content of water in
your area, calcium deposits (scale) may build up
in your Coffeemaker. Though scale is not toxic,
it can affect performance. Descaling the
Coffeemaker when the indicator signals it is time
to do so will help protect the heating element
and other parts that come into contact with water.
For optimal performance, descale the
Coffeemaker every 3 to 6 months. If calcium
deposits build up faster, the CLEAN light will
illuminate, indicating 10-cup Coffeemaker should
be descaled.
To clean:
1. Remove the charcoal water filter. Fill the
water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of
¹⁄ ³ white vinegar and ²⁄ ³ water.
2. Press and hold the CLEAN button.
When the CLEAN LED indicator flashes,
the Coffeemaker is in Clean mode.
Release the button.
3. When the cycle is completed, 5 beeps will
sound and the Coffeemaker will shut off.
4. If the CLEAN indicator illuminates once
more, repeat the cleaning procedure with
a fresh solution of vinegar and water.
NOTE: One cleaning cycle is usually sufficient.
5. While the CLEAN indicator remains off, run
one cycle with a full reservoir of fresh, cold
water to rinse the unit.
6. Return the charcoal water filter to the
holder inside the water reservoir and your
Coffeemaker is ready to brew!
MAINTENANCE
Any other servicing should be performed by
an authorized service representative.
