ROUTINE  CLEANING

Before beginning any cleaning procedure, unplug the brewer to 

avoid the accidental start of a brew cycle.

Clean the pod holder, drip tray and drip tray grate after each 

use, using a damp cloth and mild detergent and rinse. With the pod 

holder and drip tray removed, use a damp cloth with mild detergent 

to wipe the area below the pod holder and into the drip tray area. 

Occasionally, wipe the outside of the brewer with a damp cloth. 

(The reservoir, slide lid, pod holder, drip tray and drip tray grate are 
dishwasher safe.) 

PERIODIC CLEANING/DESCALING

(Recommended At Least Once a Month.)

Periodically, you should clean and descale the brewer to clear any mineral deposits 

that may have accumulated due to impurities in the water source. If these deposits are not 

removed, they can impair the operation of the brewer and reduce the product life.

There are several products available specifically for descaling. We recommend using 

URNEX

®

 Activated Descaler or JavaClean2 Cleaner and Descaler, available on our web 

site: www.bunn.com. (White vinegar can be used to descale if a descaling product is not 

available.) 

Follow the directions as printed on the manufacturer’s package

.

1)  Fill the reservoir with descaling product as described by the manufacturer’s directions, 

or 32 oz. (946 ml) of white vinegar. 

Do not add powder mix 

directly to the reservoir. Descaling product must be mixed 

into a solution before it is added to the reservoir.

2)  Place an empty pod holder into the brewer. Be sure the holder 

is locked into place, and set the VOLUME CONTROL SLIDE 

LEVER to the maximum position.

3)  Place an empty container or bowl on the drip tray grate that 

will hold at least 14 oz. (414 ml) of liquid, and press the 

COFFEE BREW BUTTON to start a brew cycle.

4)  Once the brew cycle has finished, empty the container and 

set it back onto the drip tray grate. Press the COFFEE BREW 

BUTTON again to start a second brew cycle.

5)  Once the brew cycle has finished, empty the container and 

the remaining solution, or vinegar from the reservoir. Remove 

the Pod Holder; clean the reservoir and pod holder thoroughly 

using a mild detergent, then rinse.

NOTE: 

There is now descaling solution in the internal tank. Follow 

the manufacturer’s directions if the solution must be left in the tank 

for any period of time. For vinegar, allow the solution to sit for at 

least two, but no more that four hours.

6)  Fill the reservoir to the maximum line with fresh clean cold 

water and place the pod holder back into the brewer.

7)  Place the empty container back onto the drip tray grate and 

press the COFFEE BREW BUTTON to begin a brew cycle.
