CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Always turn unit off and remove the plug
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
Lift up the Coffeemaker reservoir cover.
Remove and discard the paper filter and
ground coffee. The filter basket can be washed
in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or
cleaned in the upper rack of the dishwasher.
Dry all parts after use.
Do not put any water in the unit once the filter
basket has been removed. Wipe the area under
the filter basket with a damp cloth.
Remove the carafe from the heating plate.
Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and
lid can be washed in warm, soapy water and
rinsed thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher.
The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on
the upper rack only.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh
cleansers on any part of the Coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other
liquids. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean,
damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints
and other blemishes on the housing can be
washed off with soap and water or a
nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wipe heater
plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use
rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean
the heater plate. Do not dry the inside of the
water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.
Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorizedservice representative.
EMPTYING THE HOT
WATER RESERVOIR
If your Hot Water System has not been used for
more than one week, or if you plan to store
your Coffee PLUS
®
unit, we suggest emptying
the reservoir completely. Place it over the sink,
and pull the water release tab from the bottom
of the unit to drain the Hot Water System
reservoir. Once empty, replace the release tab.
NOTE: Hot water reservoir should be
emptied only when the unit is cool. To
avoid injury, do not empty the reservoir
when there is hot water in the unit.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium
deposits that form over time on the metal parts
of the coffeemaker.
To Decalcify Your Coffeemaker
For best performance from your Coffeemaker,
decalcify the unit from time to time. The
frequency depends upon the hardness of your
tap water and how often you use the
Coffeemaker. The flashing Clean light will
indicate when unit should be cleaned.
If the Clean light begins to flash when the
Coffeemaker is turned on, it is telling you that
the calcium buildup is interfering with the
functioning of your Coffeemaker and the flavor
of your coffee. To clean, fill the water reservoir
to capacity with a mixture of ¹⁄³ white vinegar
and ²⁄³ water. Press the Clean button. When the
Clean light glows, turn the Coffeemaker on by
pressing the On/Off button. The Clean light will
shine steadily. The Coffeemaker is now in
CLEAN mode. One cycle should be sufficient
to adequately clean the Coffeemaker. When the
cycle is completed and the five beeps sound,
the Coffeemaker will shut off. Turn the
Coffeemaker on to see if the Clean light
continues to flash. If it does, turn it off and
then repeat the cleaning procedure with a
fresh solution of vinegar and water.
If the Clean light no longer flashes, turn the
Coffeemaker off and then run one cycle of fresh
cold water through the unit before using the
unit again to brew coffee.
Notes on the CLEAN Function
Pressing the Clean button cancels all other
settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it
again to return the Coffeemaker to all its
previous settings. Pressing On/Off will also exit
the CLEAN mode and turn the Coffeemaker off.
To Decalcify Your Hot Water System
We recommend you clean your Hot Water
System twice a year to remove any calcium
scale residue from the heating element.
1. Dispense and dispose of any water in the
reservoir until the Add Water light flashes.
2. Add 32 oz. of white vinegar to the Hot Water
reservoir. Turn the unit on to heat the vinegar.
3. Dispense 16 oz. of vinegar and dispose. This
will fill the inner tank.
4. Let the vinegar solution sit in the unit for 20
minutes. Do not dispense during this time.
5. After 20 minutes, turn the unit off and allow hot
vinegar to cool. Then drain the internal reservoir
over a sink by removing the water release tab
from the bottom of unit.
6. When vinegar has completely drained,
replace tab.
7. Refill reservoir with water and drain the internal
reservoir again (by removing tab at the bottom
of the unit) to flush thoroughly. Replace tab.
NOTE: If water has a vinegar taste or smell,
continue to dispense water until taste or smell is
gone.
