REGULAR CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Decalcifying your OSTER
Minerals (calcium/limestone) found in water will leave deposits in your coffeemaker and
affect its performance. It's recommended that you regularly remove these deposits using
white household vinegar.
1. Pour four cups (32 fluid ounces) of undiluted white household vinegar into the water
reservoir.
2. Place the permanent filter or if you prefer an empty 10-12 cup basket-style paper filter
into the filter basket and close the brew basket lid.
3. Place the empty carafe back in the unit, centered on the
plate.
4. Press the Select (SELEC./APG.) button until the red Clean
(LIMPIAR) indicator light turns on (Figure 11). For your
convenience the cleaning cycle is automatic. The entire cycle
will take 45-60 minutes to complete. During the cleaning your
coffeemaker will:
a. Slow brew approx. 3 cups of vinegar.
b. Pause for 30 minutes (the Clean (LIMPIAR) light will
remain on to alert you that the process is active).
c. After 30 minutes, your coffeemaker will brew the remainder
of the vinegar.
d. When complete, the Clean (LIMPIAR) light will turn off and your coffeemaker
will turn off.
5. Discard the vinegar and rinse the carafe thoroughly with clean water.
6. Fill the water reservoir with clean, fresh water.
7. Place the empty carafe back on the coffeemaker, centered on the plate.
8. Remove and discard the paper filter used during the cleaning cycle. If a permanent
filter was used during cleaning, remove it and rinse it thoroughly before replacing it in
the filter basket.
9. Begin brewing and allow the full brew cycle to complete.
10. Repeat steps 5 through 9 one more time. Your coffeemaker is now clean and ready to
brew the next pot of delicious, hot coffee!

Cleaning the Carafe
Hard water can leave a whitish stain on the carafe, and coffee may then turn this stain
brown.
To remove carafe stains:
1. Fill the carafe with a solution of equal parts water and vinegar and let the solution
stand in the carafe for approximately 20 minutes.
2. Discard the solution, then wash and rinse the carafe. Do not use harsh abrasive
cleaners that may scratch the carafe.
