When i set the automatic on button, if I put in a new pod, and close the lid, will it brew? Or is it just a heat the water program?

The Auto On function primes the Keurig K-Elite for brewing at a predetermined time, but it does not automatically start brewing when a new pod is inserted. The user still needs to initiate the brew manually.

To install the filter in the water reservoir of the Keurig K-Elite:

1. Get the Correct Filter – Use the long-handle water filter for the K-Elite, as the reservoir is taller.
2. Prepare the Carbon Filter – Soak the carbon filter in water to remove dust or debris.
3. Insert the Filter into the Holder – Place the prepared carbon filter inside the filter holder.
4. Attach the Filter Holder – Snap the long-handle filter holder onto the black piece inside the reservoir.
5. Secure the Filter in Place – Gently push down until it clicks into place.
6. Reassemble the Reservoir – Place the reservoir back onto the machine and replace the lid.

The filter should be replaced every two months.

To clear the red descale light on a Keurig K-Elite, follow these steps:

1. Prepare for Descaling:
- Remove any used K-Cup® pod from the machine.
- Empty and wash the water reservoir with mild soap and warm water.
- Refill it with fresh filtered water.

2. Descale the Brewer:
- Use Keurig Descaling Solution or white vinegar.
- Pour the solution into the water reservoir.
- Run several brew cycles without inserting a K-Cup® pod until the "Add Water" light turns on.

3. Rinse the Brewer:
- Refill the reservoir with fresh water.
- Run multiple water-only brew cycles to remove any remaining descaling solution.

4. Clean Needles (If Needed):
- Remove the pod holder and clean the exit needle with a straightened paper clip.
- Clean the entrance needle on the lid using the same method.

5. Final Steps:
- Reassemble all cleaned parts.
- The descale light should turn off after completing the process.

Descale your brewer every 3-6 months to prevent buildup and keep it functioning properly.

Yes, you need to remove the water filter before descaling the Keurig K-Elite. The manual states that if using a Keurig Water Filter, you should remove and set it aside before starting the descaling process.

Can the coffee **** stay on? Do I have to push the power button and wait each time?

The Keurig K-Elite coffee maker has an Auto On functionality, but the clock must be set for it to work. If this feature is not enabled, the power button will need to be pushed each time to turn it on.

How you replace or change the "my k-cup" on the keurig k-elite?

K-Elite K90. Powers on, all lights flash. Press a cup selection and then machine powers off. All cup size selections make this happen. However, the 'ICED" button works and brews.

The issue could be a clogged needle that punctures the pod. Users reported that cleaning the needle using a paperclip helped fix similar problems where the machine powered on, allowed cup size selection, then shut off. The fact that the 'ICED' button works suggests the machine is not completely non-functional, pointing more toward a blockage rather than an electrical issue.
