MINERAL DEPOSITS AND CLOGGING
Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your
Coffeemaker. It is necessary to regularly clean your
Coffeemaker to flush out these deposits. Excessive
steaming or a prolonged brewing cycle are signs that
a cleaning is needed.
Clean your Coffeemaker approximately every 1-3 months.
The frequency of cleaning required is affected by your
specific usage and water hardness. You may have to
clean the Coffeemaker more or less often.
During cleaning, more steaming may occur than when
brewing coffee.
