COFFEEMAKER CLEANING
AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING EXTERNAL PARTS

We recommend regular cleaning of the coffeemaker's
external components.
1. Never immerse the coffeemaker in water or
other liquids. The housing and other external
components may be cleaned with a soapy, damp,
nonabrasive cloth.
2. To remove the drip tray, simply slide it toward you,
keeping it level at all times in order to prevent spills.
The drip tray and drip tray plate are dishwasher safe.
Do not clean drip tray with cleansers, steel wool
pads or other abrasive materials.

CLEANING THE CAPSULE HOLDER

Caution: There are sharp needles that puncture
the capsule above and below. To avoid risk of
injury, do not put your fingers in the capsule
brewing chamber.
1. The capsule holder is top-shelf dishwasher safe (use

to open the brewing chamber. Grasp the top of the
capsule holder and pull up.
2. Cleaning the Funnel – To remove funnel from
capsule holder, hold funnel in left hand, twist bottom
away from you slightly and pull away from capsule

NOTE: The funnel may be tight the fi rst few times
you try to remove it; this is normal and will loosen
with continued use.

located on the inside bottom of the capsule holder
assembly. Should a clog arise because of coffee

paper clip into exit needle to loosen the clog and
push it out.
Replace funnel onto capsule holder by lining up
tabs in funnel with notches on capsule holder, twist

arrow on the capsule holder rim with arrow on the
brewing chamber.
