performance from time to time.

Your SS-GB1 is designed to keep the internal heating 
element on the Single-Serve side free from excess 
water which will limit any calcium buildup. However, if 
you feel more comfortable descaling your coffeemaker, 
please follow the following steps.

NOTE:

 Before descaling your coffeemaker, remember 

to remove the charcoal water filter from the water filter 
holder located in the water reservoir.

To begin, you will need the following:

13 oz. of distilled white vinegar

26 oz. of water

16 oz. ceramic mug or container 
(do not use paper cup)

Access to a sink

Step 1: First Vinegar Rinse

 1.   Fill water reservoir with 13 oz. of white vinegar and 

26 oz. of water.

 2.   Place the ceramic mug or container on the  

drip tray.

 3.   Press the POD button to enter single-serve mode 

and select the 12 oz. brew size setting. Press the 
BREW/OFF/AUTO OFF button once to start.

 4.   Discard contents of mug into the sink.

 5.   Repeat until ADD WATER light comes on.

 6.   When descaling is complete, all LED lights  

will turn off.

 7.   Discard any remaining diluted vinegar into sink.

Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse

 1.   Repeat Step 1 three times, using fresh water in 

place of vinegar.

 2.   This will clean the coffeemaker plumbing and  

remove any residual vinegar taste.

MAINTENANCE

Any other servicing should be performed by an 
authorized service representative.

WARRANTY

Limited Three-Year Warranty

This warranty is available to U.S. consumers only. You 
are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart

®

 Coffee Center

®

 

Grind & Brew Plus that was purchased at retail for 
personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise 
required under applicable law, this warranty is not 
available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or 
owners. We warrant that your Cuisinart

®

 Coffee Center

®

 

Grind & Brew Plus will be free of defects in materials 
and workmanship under normal home use for 3 years 
from the date of original purchase. 

We recommend that you visit our website,  

www.cuisinart.com

 for a fast, efficient way to 

complete your product registration. However, product 
registration does not eliminate the need for the 
consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in 
order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that 
you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase 
date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of 
manufacture.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, 
California residents have the option of returning a 
nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was 
purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells 
Cuisinart products of the same type. The retail store 
shall then, according to its preference, either repair the 
product, refer the consumer to an independent repair 
facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase 
price less the amount directly attributable to the 
consumer’s prior usage of the product. If neither of the 
above two options results in the appropriate relief to the 
consumer, the consumer may then take the product to 
an independent repair facility, if service or repair can be 
economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the 
consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of 
such service, repair, replacement, or refund for 
nonconforming products under warranty. California 
residents may also, according to their preference, 
return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for 
repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our 
Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-0190. 
Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, 
replacement, and shipping and handling for such 
nonconforming products under warranty.

HASSLE-FREE REPLACEMENT WARRANTY

Your ultimate satisfaction in Cuisinart products is our 
goal, so if your Cuisinart

®

 Coffee Center

®

 Grind & Brew 

Plus should fail within the generous warranty period, we 
will repair it or, if necessary, replace it at no cost to you.  
To obtain a return shipping label, email us at

Or call our toll-free customer service department at 
1-800-726-0190 to speak with a representative.

Your Cuisinart

®

 Coffee Center

®

 Grind & Brew Plus has 

been manufactured to the strictest specifications and 
has been designed for use only in 120-volt outlets and 
only with authorized accessories and replacement 
parts. This warranty expressly excludes any defects or 
damages caused by attempted use of this unit with a 
converter, as well as use with accessories, replacement 
parts or repair service other than those authorized by 
Cuisinart. This warranty does not cover any damage 
caused by accident, misuse, shipment or other than 
ordinary household use. This warranty excludes all 
incidental or consequential damages. Some states do 
not allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages, 
so these exclusions may not apply to you. You may also 
have other rights, which vary from state to state. 

Important:

 If the nonconforming product is to be 

serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s Authorized 
Service Center, please remind the servicer to call our 
Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure 
that the problem is properly diagnosed, the product is 
serviced with the correct parts, and to ensure that the 
product is still under warranty.
