Decalcifying
Calcium buildup frequently occurs in drip coffeemakers.
The buildup is quite normal and is caused by minerals commonly found
in drinking water.
We recommend periodically decalcifying your coffeemaker with a
solution of white vinegar and cold water. Use a solution of 1 cup white
vinegar in one carafe of cold water filled to the 4-cup line.
Note: If using the optional charcoal water filter, remove it from
the Coffeemaker before decalcifying.
Pour the solution into the water reservoir, put the empty carafe and
empty filter basket in place, and close the lid. Switch the coffeemaker on
and allow the coffeemaker to “brew” the vinegar solution.
When the vinegar solution has finished brewing, empty the carafe and
rinse in clean water. Refill the water reservoir with clean, cold water and
run a second “brew” cycle. This will rinse out any remaining vinegar
solution. If necessary, repeat this last step.
We recommend decalcifying your drip coffeemaker four times a year or
at any time the brewing time takes longer than normal.
Pause & Pour Feature
Your coffeemaker has been designed with a Pause & Pour feature.
At any time during the brewing cycle, you may temporarily remove the
carafe from the unit and pour hot coffee from the carafe. The brewing
cycle will be interrupted and no coffee will drip from the filter basket.
Place the carafe back in the Housing.
Warning:
Return carafe within 30 seconds if removed during brewing or
filter basket may overflow.
Caution:
Coffeemaker will remain on for two hours and will automatically
shut itself off, unless manually turned off beforehand. Do not leave
empty carafe on warming plate.
Auto Shutoff
As an added convenience, your coffeemaker has been designed with an
auto shutoff feature. Two hours after the brewing cycle is complete, the
coffeemaker will automatically shut itself off.
