MAINTENANCE ALERTS
DESCALING YOUR BREWER (CONTINUED)
The cleaning action of Keurig Descaling Solution may result in a foam dispensed from
TM
the brewer. This is natural, as the solution is reacting with the scale inside. For a brewer
that is heavily scaled, the brewer may not fill properly after the descaler is added. If this
occurs, you may see only a small or no output dispensed followed by the sound of air
blowing out. If this occurs:
• Turn off and unplug the brewer.
• If there is Keurig Descaling Solution in the Water Reservoir, discard the contents,
TM
rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly and refill with bottled or filtered water.
• Plug the brewer back in, power on, and repeat STEP 3: FRESH WATER RINSE (refer to
page 29). The brewer should begin to function normally as the solution is rinsed out and
the scale is removed. If the problem persists, allow the brewer to sit unplugged for at
least 30 minutes, then continue with the fresh water rinse.
