Emptying Hot Water Tank; De-Scaling Brewer - Keurig B30 Use And Care Manual

Emptying the Hot Water Tank
1. Ensure that the water fill lid is closed.
2. Place a cup on the drip plate then press and
hold the brew button until all the water has
been dispensed. Note, there will be a delay of
4 - 5 seconds until water starts to dispense.
Storage
Empty the Hot Water Tank before storing and
take care to ensure that you store your Brewer
in a safe and frost free environment. It is
suggested to store your brewer in the upright
position. If you store the Brewer in a cold
environment, you run the risk of condensation
freezing inside the Brewer and causing damage.
When you prepare to use it after storage, we
recommend wiping the Hot Water Tank with a
damp lint-free cloth and running three cleansing
brews without a K-Cup
If your Brewer has been in an environment
below freezing, please be sure to let it warm to
room temperature for 2 hours before using.
De-Scaling Your Brewer
Mineral content in bottled or filtered water
varies. Depending on the mineral content of the
water, calcium deposits or scale may build up in
your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic but left unat-
tended, it can hinder Brewer performance. De-
scaling your Brewer helps maintain the heating
element, and other internal parts of the Brewer
that come in contact with water.
The Brewer should be de-scaled every 3-6
months to ensure optimal performance or when
there are white deposits in the Hot Water Tank.
It is possible for calcium deposits to build up
faster, making it necessary to de-scale more
often.
Step 1: Make sure you have at least 8 ounces
of undiluted white vinegar on hand. You will also
need a 10 oz ceramic cup (do not use a paper
cup) and access to a sink.

bottled water, close the water fill lid, place a
