Daily Cleaning
• CAUTION: Make sure your coffeemaker is unplugged and has cooled

wash them in a solution of hot water and mild liquid soap, and dry
thoroughly. You can also place in the dishwasher; top-rack only.
Decalcifying your MR. COFFEE
®
Minerals (calcium/limestone) found in water will leave deposits in your
coffeemaker and affect its performance. It's recommended that you
regularly remove these deposits using vinegar.
1. IMPORTANT: Remove the water filtration system from
the coffeemaker.
2. Prepare 4 cups or 20 fl. oz. / 592ml of undiluted, white household
vinegar. Pour the vinegar into the water reservoir.
3. Place an empty 10-12 cup basket-style paper filter or MR. COFFEE®
reusable filter into the brew basket and close the coffeemaker's lid.
4. Place the empty carafe back in the unit, centered on the warming plate.
5. Brew prepared cleaning solution through the coffeemaker.
6. Discard the cleaning solution and rinse the carafe thoroughly
with clean water.
7. Fill the water reservoir with 12 cups of clean, fresh water.
8. Place the empty carafe back on the coffeemaker, centered on the
warming plate.
9. Remove and discard the paper filter used during the cleaning cycle.
If a MR. COFFEE® reusable filter was used during cleaning, remove it
and rinse it thoroughly before replacing it in the brew basket.

the coffeemaker with hot water.
