Cleaning and Maintenance

CAUTION: Be sure to unplug this appliance before cleaning. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse
cord, plug or unit in water or other liquid. After each use, always make sure plug is first removed from wall outlet.
1. Clean filter basket, filter, carafe and carafe lid after each use in hot, sudsy water.
2. Wipe the appliance's exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove stains.
3. Water droplets may build up in the area above the filter and drip onto the appliance base during brewing.
To control the dripping, wipe off the area with a clean, dry cloth after each use of the product.
4. Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the base. Never use an abrasive cleaner to clean it.

Descaling

Special cleaning of your Coffee Maker is recommended at least once a month, depending on frequency of use
and quality of water used in the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following cleaning procedure
should be performed every 2 weeks, since minerals in water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly
lengthen brew time.
1. Fill carafe with 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar solution into the
water reservoir.
2. Brew the vinegar solution until the carafe is half full.
NOTE: During cleaning, more steam will occur than during normal coffee brewing.
3. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the Coffee Maker OFF. When liquid stops dripping from filter holder into
the carafe, remove the carafe and allow liquid to cool for 15 minutes. When cooled, lift lid and pour liquid
back into the water reservoir.
4. Close the lid. Return carafe to the base.
5. BREW THE VINEGAR SOLUTION again, allowing all the cleaning solution to empty into the carafe. After
dripping has stopped, discard contents of the carafe.
6. Allow Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, rinse by brewing a carafe full of cold water. Insert the clean
permanent coffee filter into the removable filter holder before brewing.
7. Repeat until no yellow liquid comes out and until no vinegar odor is left.
8. At end of brew cycle, press the ON/OFF button to turn the Coffee Maker OFF. Discard water in the carafe.
Wash carafe, permanent coffee filter, and removable filter holder in hot sudsy water. Dry parts thoroughly.
NOTE: carafe, permanent coffee filter, and removable filter holder are top-rack dishwasher safe. The carafe
lid is removable for easy cleaning.
9. When Coffee Maker has cooled, wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
