IMPORTANT:
If you cancel the
clean cycle, your machine will
not be properly descaled.
CLEANING & DESCALING
YOUR BREWING SYSTEM
The CLEAN button will illuminate when a
cleaning cycle is recommended for your
unit, as calcium scale buildup could be
affecting the flavor of your coffee or tea.
To clean and descale your
Ninja
Hot & Cold Brew System™:
1
Select the Full Carafe size and
set the empty carafe beneath
the brew basket.
2
Use a descaling solution specifically
formulated for coffee maker cleaning
and follow the directions on the
package. Fill the water reservoir up to,
but not exceeding, the Max Fill line
(50 oz.).
OR
Fill the water reservoir to the Travel Mug
line (16 oz.) with white vinegar, then fill
the rest of the reservoir with water up to,
but not exceeding, the Max Fill line.
IMPORTANT:
Use only white vinegar.
3
Once the water reservoir is filled with
your cleaning solution and water
mixture, press the CLEAN button
CARE & MAINTENANCE
4
The clock will display and count down
the remaining clean cycle time, which
takes approximately 60 minutes to
complete. Your unit will deliver a small
amount of cleaning solution to distribute
it through the system. It will then pause,
deliver additional cleaning solution,
and continue until the cycle is complete.
The extended pauses allow for maximum
cleaning and descaling.
5
Upon completion, the brewer will beep,
the clock will display End, and the
CLEAN light will turn off.
6
Empty the contents of the carafe and
place it back under the brew basket.
Clean the water reservoir with warm,
soapy water to remove any cleaning
solution that could affect the flavor of
your coffee.
7
Fill the reservoir with fresh water
up to, but not exceeding, the Max Fill
line.
NOTE:
The clean cycle takes
approximately 60 minutes.
NOTE:
Hard water will cause scale
buildup faster than soft water and the
brewer will indicate it needs cleaning
more often.

AFTER EACH BREW
1
After the unit has cooled, remove the filter
holder from the brew basket. If using a
paper coffee filter, discard it. If using either
the coffee or tea permanent filter, wash it
thoroughly with soap and warm water or
place on top rack of dishwasher.
2
Clean the frother whisk after each use.
Hand-wash thoroughly or place on top
rack of dishwasher.
3
Wash the carafe and brew-through lid
with soap and warm water. Use a bottle
brush or a cloth to wash the inside of the
carafe.
DO NOT
use a wire brush.
4
After the brewer has cooled, wipe down
the main unit, showerhead, and water
reservoir shelf with a cloth and warm
water.
DO NOT
immerse the coffee maker
in water.
CLEANING THE WATER RESERVOIR
Empty the water reservoir and hand-wash
or place in your dishwasher. For a better
clean, we recommend placing it on the
bottom rack of the dishwasher standing
upright with the opening facing downward.
We recommend doing this weekly.
CLEANING THE CARAFE
We recommend cleaning your carafe with
warm, soapy water. If you want to clean the
carafe more thoroughly, we recommend
using a soft foam brush or placing it in the
dishwasher.
DO NOT
use a wire brush.
NOTE:
For best results, we recommend
rinsing the reservoir after brewing and
refilling with fresh water for the next brew.
NOTE:
The glass carafe, brew-through
lid, coffee and tea permanent filters,
removable filter holders, water reservoir,
flip-top lid, frother whisk, and scoop are
dishwasher safe.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT
remove the carafe
at any time throughout the clean cycle.
NOTE:
If the clock ever reads “CLn”
it indicates heavy scale build-up on
the boiler. Run a clean cycle before
attempting to brew again.
8
Flush the system by running a Full Carafe,
Classic Brew cycle with water only. After
the cycle is complete, discard the water
and thoroughly clean the carafe.
NOTE:
Running a water-only clean cycle
will not descale the brewer properly.
