De-scaling With Auto Clean™
Over time, calcium deposits or “scale” may build up in your brewer. Scale is
non-toxic but if left unattended can hinder brewer performance. Regularly
de-scaling your brewer helps to maintain quality coffee as well as the
lifespan of the heating element, and other internal parts that come in
contact with water throughout the brew process.
To make the de-scaling process as effortless as possible, an Auto Clean™
system has been programmed into your coffeemaker.
When should I use Auto Clean™?
After every 60 brews, the word “CLEAN” will be displayed and blink. This
notifies you it is time to run the Auto Clean™ system. “CLEAN” will be
displayed until you run the Auto Clean™ system. If you would like to clean
your coffeemaker prior to 60 brew cycles, you may do so by following the
steps below.

Follow the simple steps below. Your coffeemaker will take care of the rest.
1. Combine 6 cups of white vinegar and 4 cups of cold water in carafe.

automatically.
