Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified
service personnel.
Make sure your coffeemaker is unplugged and cool.

Note: Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. Never immerse
the coffeemaker in water.
4. To clean the inside of the cover, open the cover and leave in the open
position; wipe with a damp cloth.
CLEANING WITH VINEGAR
Note: With regular use, minerals and hard water can clog your
coffeemaker. A full cleaning with vinegar is recommended once a month.
1. Pour white vinegar into water reservoir up to the 6-cup mark on the
water window. Add cold water up to the 12-cup mark.
2. Put a paper filter in filter basket and close cover. Set empty carafe on
the carafe plate.
3. Turn coffeemaker on. Let half the cleaning mixture brew into carafe
(until level is around 6). Turn off coffeemaker and let it soak for at least
15 minutes.
4. Turn coffeemaker on again and brew remaining cleaning mixture into
carafe. Turn coffeemaker off; empty carafe and discard paper filter.
5. Fill reservoir with cold water to 12-cup line; replace carafe on carafe
plate and then turn coffeemaker on for a complete brewing cycle to
flush out remaining cleaning mixture. You may want to repeat this step
to completely remove the vinegar smell/taste.
