Cleaning the Coffee Brewer

Descaling the Coffee Brewer
Calcium deposits (scale) from water will build up in the Coffee Brewer over time and impair
brewing efficiency and coffee quality. If you notice that it takes longer than usual to brew,
or that the Coffee Brewer is making unusual noises, then it is time to descale. The Clean
indicator will flash when the Coffee Brewer has brewed 100 cups of coffee, or detects

scale buildup. Descaling should be done as soon as possible to preserve the performance
and life of your Coffee Brewer.
NOTE: The Coffee Brewer can be
descaled by using a packaged descaling
agent, which can be found at various
retail stores or online.
Follow the directions on the package for
the recommended ratios of descaling agent
and water to use.

a complete Clean cycle using a full tank of
the descaling solution.

at regular intervals, if desired, without
