Descaling Instructions
Calcium and mineral deposits may build up in the coffee maker as a result of
minerals commonly found in drinking water. This build-up is normal and may
result in a slowdown of the coffee maker’s brewing time. It is recommended that
you periodically descale your coffee maker.
IMPoRTanT:
Before descaling, remove the charcoal filter assembly from the
water reservoir. Set aside for later use. Do not use any filter in the removable
filter holder.
1.
To descale, fill the water reservoir with cold water plus 2 tablespoons of
white vinegar.
2.
Place the carafe on the base plate/warming plate and allow the coffee
maker to brew the vinegar solution.
3.
When the vinegar solution has finished brewing, empty the carafe and
rinse it out with cold water.
4.
Refill the water reservoir with cold water only and run another brew cycle
to remove any remaining vinegar solution. Repeat if necessary.
STORAGE
1.
Unplug unit and allow to cool. Never store any coffee maker while it is hot
or still plugged in.
2.
Feed power-supply cord into the cord storage area located under the
water reservoir.
3.
Store coffee maker its box or in a cool, dry place. Never store unit while it
is still plugged in.
