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 Coffee Maker. 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. Set the switch to OFF (O) position 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 keep warm plate.
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, run clean water through the coffee maker
3 times. Insert the clean permanent coffee filter into the removable filter holder
before brewing.
7. Set the switch to OFF (O) position 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.
