TIPS & ADVICE
While the pause and serve feature is a convenient way to pour a cup of coffee
midcycle, we recommend you wait until the brewing cycle is complete as
the strength and flavor of coffee poured mid-cycle will vary from the finished
brew.
„ „
To remove the used coffee grounds, remove the filter holder from the coffee maker.
- Fig. 9.
„ „
Unplug the appliance.
„ „
Do not clean the appliance when it is still hot.
„ „
Wash carafe, carafe lid and removable filter holder in hot, soapy water or place it in
the top rack of the diswasher.
NOTE: Do not place any other part of the coffee maker in the dishwasher.
„ „
Clean with a soft cloth or a damp sponge. Never use harsh detergents or abrasive
cleaners on any part of the coffee maker.
„ „
To clean the stainless steel parts of your coffee maker, rinse a soft cloth or sponge
in warm water and squeeze out the excess water. Wipe the surface of the stainless
steel in the direction of the brush marks. Dry thoroughly and polish with a soft dry
cloth.
„ „
For hard to remove stains, use a plastic mesh pad or cloth damped in vinegar.
„ „
Do not immerse the appliance in water or place it under running water.
„ „
Calcium build-up frequently occurs in drip coffeemakers. This build-up is normal
and is caused by minerals commonly found in drinking water. Periodically, your
coffeemaker will need cleaning to remove calcium or mineral deposits that may
form. You will know when your unit will need descaling when you notice an obvious
slow down in brewing time.
„ „
We recommend descaling your unit with a solution of white vinegar and cold water
or a suitable descaling agent. A solution of two tablespoons of white vinegar to one
carafe of cold water works best. Pour this solution into the water tank, and follow
your normal operating instructions, without a filter in the filter basket.
„ „
When the brew cycle is finished, empty the carafe and rinse with water. Refill the
water reservoir with cold water only and repeat the brew cycle with water only,
twice more. This will rinse out any remaining vinegar solution.
„ „
We strongly recommend descaling your coffee maker any time the brewing time
slows down or when you begin to notice excessive steaming. The frequency
of descaling will depend on the hardness of your water. We suggest descaling
approximately every 40 brew cycles if your tapwater is hard.
