DESCALING
It is recommended to perform a special cleaning of your Coffee Maker at least once a month,
depending on frequency of use and quality of water used in the unit. If water in your area
is especially hard, the following cleaning procedure should be performed more regularly.
Excessive accumulation of mineral deposits from hard water can detract from the flavor of the
coffee and possibly lengthen brew time. Excessive steaming or prolonged brew time are signs
that cleaning is needed.
1. Fill half full mug with 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar
solution into the water tank
2. Center an empty mug on the drip tray under the nozzle.
3. Press the brew button to start brew cycle, allowing all of the solution to drip into the mug.
NOTE: During cleaning, more steam will occur than during normal coffee brewing.
4. When liquid stops dripping from filter holder into the mug, the red brew light will turn
off. Remove the mug and allow liquid to cool for 15 minutes. When cooled, repeat steps
1-4 a second time.
5. Allow Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, rinse by brewing a full mug of cold water.
Insert the clean permanent coffee filter into the removable filter basket before brewing.
This step may need to be repeated in order to remove anyremaining vinegar taste.
6. At end of brew cycle, the red brew light will turn off, discard the water in the mug. Wash
the mug, permanent coffee filter and removable filter holder in warm, soapy water and
dry the parts thoroughly.
