2. Cleaning the Funnel
—
The Funnel can be
removed from the K-Cup Holder by pulling
on it until it snaps off (fig. 17). The Funnel is
dishwasher safe. To replace it, just snap it
back onto the K-Cup Holder Assembly.
3. Cleaning the Exit Needle
—
The Exit Needle is
located on the inside bottom of the K-Cup
Holder Assembly. Should a clog arise due to
coffee grinds, it can be cleaned using a paper
clip or similar tool. Remove K-Cup Holder
assembly and detach Funnel. Insert the paper
clip (as shown in fig. 17) into the Needle to
loosen the clog and push it out. The K-Cup
Holder is dishwasher safe.
CAUTION:
There are sharp needles that
puncture the K-Cup above the K-Cup Holder
and in the bottom of the K-Cup Holder. To
avoid risk of injury, do not put your fingers
in the K-Cup Assembly Housing.
Cleaning the Water Reservoir & Water Reservoir Lid
The Water Reservoir Lid or Water Reservoir should not be put into the
dishwasher. They should be cleaned with a damp, soapy, non-abrasive cloth
and rinsed thoroughly. Do not dry the inside of the Water Reservoir with a
cloth as lint may remain.
CAUTION:
Please rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly after cleaning to ensure
that no cleaners or cleaning solutions remain in this area as they may contaminate
the water supply in the Brewer.
De-Scaling Your Brewer
Mineral content in water varies from place to
place. Depending on the mineral content of the
water in your area, calcium deposits or scale
may build up in your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic,
but left unattended, it can hinder Brewer
performance. De-scaling your Brewer helps
maintain the heating element and other
internal parts of the Brewer that come in
contact with water.
The Brewer should be de-scaled every 3-6 months to ensure optimal
performance. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making
it necessary to de-scale more often.
This Brewer is equipped with sensors to detect when scale buildup is
interfering with the performance of the Brewer. When this is detected,
“DE-SCALE” will be displayed on the LCD Control Center (fig. 18). However,
even if “DE-SCALE” is not displayed, you should continue to de-scale your
brewer every 3-6 months.
You should promptly de-scale if “DE-SCALE” is displayed on the LCD
Control Center. Properly follow the de-scaling procedure described.
NOTE:
The Brewer will continue to function even when “DE-SCALE”
is displayed. However, if you do not de-scale soon after it is displayed,
continued scale build-up could damage the Brewer. If this occurs, “DE-SCALE”
will begin to blink to alert you to the potential damage to the Brewer if you do
not de-scale immediately.
