CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

HOW TO REPLACE THE INNER LID GASKET
The Inner Lid Gasket may need to be replaced due to time and wear. We recommend that you replace it about once a year.
Wipe new Inner Lid Gaskets with a wet soft sponge before attaching to the Inner Lid.

To remove the Inner Lid Gasket

Remove the three screws, and remove the Inner Lid.
- Do not lose these screws.
Remove the Inner Lid Gasket which is installed on the Inner Lid.

To attach the Inner Lid Gasket

Fit the Inner Lid Gasket securely to the outer circumference as shown in the figure.
Line up the pin on the Upper Lid with the hole on the Inner Lid correctly with the Upper Lid, and tighten the three screws securely.

If the Inner Lid Gasket hardens, changes shape, turns white, or otherwise becomes worn out, hot water may leak from the gap between the Upper Lid and Body when tilted. Steam may also leak from the gap, causing burns and product failures, which may result in scalds. If hot water spews from the gap or there is steam even after replacing the Inner Lid Gasket, other parts may be in need of repair. Please contact Zojirushi Customer Service.

HOW TO PERFORM CITRIC ACID CLEANING

Perform every 1-3 month(s) of usage
Do not drink the water used for citric acid cleaning.
NOTE
In order to prevent gas bubbles and bubbllng-over, the Citric Acid Cleaner for Electric Water Boilers (CD-K03E-JU) is recommended for cleaning. To purchase this cleaner, please visit an authorized Zojirushi dealer or www.zojirushi.com.

Preparation:
Check that the Filter is attached to the Inner Container.

NOTE
If the Filter is dirty, remove it from the Inner Container, wash with a soft brush and reinstall.

Put 1 package of the Citric Acid Cleaner CD-K03E-JU in a cup and add warm water to dissolve. Pour it into the Inner Container and fill with water to the Maximum Water Level Line.
NOTE
Do not fill over the Maximum Water Level Line. (Hot water may spill out, resulting in scalds.)
Close the Upper Lid, insert the Power Plug and press the reboiln button for more than 3 seconds.
Unplug the Power Plug, detach the Upper Lid and dispose water where indicated "EMPTY FROM HERE." (Please take precautions not to splash water on the Hinge.)
NOTE
Repeated citric acid cleaning may be necessary for hard-to-remove residues or if water does not dispense smoothly.
To rinse, fill the Inner Container with water. Boil and dispense about a cup of hot water to rinse out the Spout, allow to cool, then dispose the remaining water.
When disposing hot water:
- Take precaution with the hot water and steam. You may scald yourself.
- Take precaution as hot water may drip from the Spout, causing scalds.
- lf mineral or Alkalized Ionic water is used, calcium tends to build up on the surface of the Inner Container. If scale accumulates on the Inner Container or the Filter, boiling may become louder than usual and water may not dispense smoothly. Frequent cleaning is recommended when using mineral or Alkalized Ionic water.
  To cancel the Citric Acid Cleaning at any time, unplug the Power Plug for more than 5 seconds.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Please check the following points before calling for service.

Condition	Cause	Remedy
Water does not heat up	Power Plug is not connected to an electrical outlet.	Connect the Power Plug.
Water does not boil	The Quick Temp mode is selected. (Water does not reach a boil under Quick Temp mode.)	Press the REBOIL/QUICK TEMP button, select the regular Boil mode.
Hot water has a disagreeable odor A mild plastic odor may be noticeable with a new product. This odor will gradually fadeaway. You may smell chlorine (used for sterilization of tap water) after boiling.	Scale or other residue has accumulated on the Inner Container.	Perform citric acid cleaning.

	The product has not been used for a long time.	Boil water, unlock and dispense about 34 oz. (1 liter) of hot water. Discard the remaining.
	If tap water is used under Quick Temp mode, it will take an additional 15 minutes after boiling completes to remove up to 80% of the chlorine.	If this is an issue, use the regular Boil mode instead. The regular Boil mode purges chlorine v in tap water by boiling completion.
Water pours out by itself from the Spout or Steam Vent.	Check that the Inner Container is not filled over the Maximum Water Level Line.	Pour out the excess water until it is below the Maximum Water Level Line.
The Quick Temp mode cannot be selected	Is the 208°F Keep Warm mode selected?	Select the 195,175 or 160°F Keep Warm mode, then select the Quick Temp mode.
The 208°F Keep Warm mode cannot be selected during the Quick Temp mode.	You cannot select the 208°F Keep Warm mode during the Quick Temp mode.	Use the Quick Temp mode for other than 208°F Keep Warm mode.
Water does not dispense or does not pour properly	Hot water does not pour properly a few minutes after boiling.	Bubbles form from the bottom of the Inner Container while water is being heated. Dispense hot water after the bubbling stops.

	Power Plug is not connected to an electrical outlet.	Connect the Power Plug.
	Scale may build up in the water route or Electric Pump and prevent water from dispensing smoothly.	Perform citric acid cleaning.
A filmy, floating residue is noticeable	Residue is due to the mineral content in water, not from corrosion of the Inner Container.	Perform citric acid cleaning, Scale Over time and use, calcium and other minerals contained in water build up on the surface of the Inner Container and the Filter. It is called "scale" and is harmless to your health.
Milky white and rough-surfaced objects have built up on the surface of the Inner Container.	Excessive accumulation of scale and other build-up on the surface of the Inner
Milky white or iridescent discoloration of the Inner Container is found.	Container can cause the hot water to smell and/or clog the hot water outlet.
Red rust-like spotting appears on the surface of the Inner Container.	Caused by iron in the water, not deterioration of the Inner Container.
A white floating residue is noticeable	Remove the Inner Lid and check the plastic part of the Upper Lid for abnormalities,	If this part is discolored or if it feels rough to the touch, replace it.
Water is not hot	Initially upon boiling or if it has been a while after dispensing, the water may not be very hot due to water remaining in the Water Level Gauge.	Please discard the first cup (of the hot water).
Water is not hot	Is the Timer set?	Press the REBOIL/QUICK TEMP button.
The Body becomes hot	When the water temperature and/or room temperature is high, the outer surface of the Body may reach up to 140°F (60°C). This is not a malfunction.
The Power Cord becomes hot	The Power Cord may become hot while the water is boiling. This is not a malfunction.
You may hear a rattling or metallic noise when opening and closing the Upper Lid or during boiling.	This sound is normal and comes from the movement of the weight which prevents hot water from flowing out when the product is overturned.
Humidity builds in the Display window	If water is filled from a faucet or the product is placed directly on a sink and the bottom becomes wet, water may go inside of the Body and the Display may show moisture.
