to suit your particular taste, by decreasing or increasing the amount of coffee used.
Be sure to use coffee grounds prepared specifically for automatic drip Coffee Makers.

• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately
after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed black coffee is due to the extraction of oil
from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees
are used. Over extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your
Coffee Maker.

CLEANING YOUR COFFEE MAKER
C
: Always make sure Coffee Maker is unplugged and warming plate is cool before
AUTION
attempting to clean. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord,
plug or unit in water or other liquid.
• The outside of your Coffee Maker can be cleaned by wiping the surface with a damp,
I
:
soft cloth.
Never immerse the Coffee Maker in water or other liquid.
MPORTANT
• Glass carafe, carafe lid and removable filter basket may be washed with warm,
soapy water, or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. Do not place any other parts
of the Coffee Maker in the dishwasher.
• Do not clean the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth as the cloth may have
a lint residue that could clog the Coffee Maker.
• For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad with a non-abrasive cleanser.
Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
• Calcium deposits may build up in the Coffee Maker as a result of minerals commonly
found in drinking water. The build-up is normal and may result in a slow-down of the
Coffee Maker's brewing time. The slow-down can be eliminated by periodically
decalcifying the Coffee Maker.
• To decalcify, pour 1/2 quart of white household vinegar into the reservoir. Place the carafe
on the warming plate and turn the unit on. Allow unit to run for 2 minutes, then shut off
and let it stand for 30 minutes to allow for softening of the deposits. After 30 minutes,
pour the contents of the carafe back into the reservoir and replace the carafe. Turn the
unit on and allow entire solution to cycle through the unit. Discard the contents of the
carafe and refill the unit with cold water. Run 2 cycles of clean cold water through the
unit to get rid of any remaining vinegar. Repeat if necessary.
N
: If hard water is used, Coffee Maker needs to be clean every 40 cycles. If soft water
OTE
is used, clean your Coffee Maker ever 80 cycles. If your brew time is slowing
down, clean your Coffee Maker more often.
