Descaling the Coffee Maker
It is recommended to perform a special cleaning of your Coffee Maker at least once a month, depending on
frequency of use and quality of water used in the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following
cleaning procedure should be performed more regularly. Excessive accumulation of mineral deposits from hard
water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen brew time. Excessive steaming or prolonged
brew time are signs that cleaning is needed.
1. Fill half the mug with 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar solution into the
water tank
2. Center an empty mug under the nozzle.
3. Press switch to ON to start brew cycle, allowing all of the solution to drip into the mug.
NOTE:
During
cleaning, more steam will occur than during normal coffee brewing.
4. When liquid stops dripping from filter holder into the mug, make sure Coffee Maker is powered OFF,
remove the mug and allow liquid to cool for 15 minutes. When cooled, repeat steps 1-4 a second time.
5. Allow Coffee Maker to cool for 15 minutes, rinse by brewing a full mug of cold water. Insert the clean
permanent coffee filter into the removable filter basket before brewing. This step may need to be repeated
in order to remove any remaining vinegar taste.
6. At end of brew cycle, the unit will switch OFF; discard the water in
the mug. Wash the mug, permanent coffee filter and removable filter holder in warm, soapy water and dry
the parts thoroughly.
7. When the Coffee Maker has cooled, wipe the exterior with a dry cloth.
