CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Always turn coffeemaker OFF and remove the
plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
Lift up the reservoir cover. Remove and
discard the filter and ground coffee.
WARNING
Caution: The reservoir contains hot
coffee. Allow to cool before lifting.
Remove the brew basket and coffee reservoir.
These 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 and coffee reservoir have
been removed. Wipe the area under the
reservoir with a damp cloth.
Remove drip tray and wash with warm
soapy water and rinse thoroughly, or place
in a dishwasher.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh
cleansers on any part of the coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other
liquid. To clean base, simply wipe with a
clean, damp cloth and dry before storing.
Fingerprints and other blemishes on the
stainless steel housing can be washed off
with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning
solution. Never use rough, abrasive materials
or cleansers to clean the warming plate. Do
not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a
cloth, as lint may remain.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to removing the calcium
deposits which form over time on the metal
parts of the coffeemaker.
For best performance from your coffeemaker,
decalcify the base unit from time to time.
The frequency depends upon the hardness
of your tap water and how often you use
the coffeemaker.
To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity
with a mixture of
1
⁄3 white vinegar and
2
⁄3 water.
Turn the coffeemaker on by turning the
ON/OFF knob. One cycle should be sufficient
to adequately clean the coffeemaker. When
the cycle is completed and the five beeps
sound, turn coffeemaker off. Repeat operation,
this time using fresh cold water.
