Minerals (calcium) found in water will leave deposits in your coffeemaker and will affect it. It’s
recommended that you regularly remove these deposits by using vinegar.
1. Pour 4 cups or 20 fl. oz. of undiluted, white household vinegar into the water reservoir.
2. Place an empty 10-12 cup basket-style paper filter or permanent filter into the filter basket and
close reservoir lid.
