COFFEE MAKER FEATURES
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Using the Coffee Maker To Make
Tea
Make sure that the filter basket, lid and
carafe has been completely cleaned in
warm soapy water, especially if it was used
to make coffee previously.
1. Depress the filter basket door release
button to swing open the filter door.
2. Place tea bag(s) into the filter basket.
NOTE
: If loose tea is used, place a paper
filter in the filter basket before measuring
the loose tea required.
3. Fill the illuminated water reservoir with
the right amount of water depending on
serving needs.
4. Depress the auto/power button to
desired mode, advance timer or power
on.
5. An alternate suggestion is to place the
tea, loose or bags directly into the
carafe, allowing water to flow into the
carafe to steep the tea.
To Remove Calcium Build-up from
Coffee Maker
Calcium deposits may build up in the
coffee maker as a result of minerals
commonly found in drinking water. The
build-up is normal and may result in a
slow down on the coffee maker’s brewing
time, or the taste of the coffee. This can
be eliminated by periodically decalcifying
the coffee maker.
1. Fill the carafe with cold water and two
tablespoons of plain, white household
vinegar.
2. Pour the solution into the water
reservoir, then close the reservoir
cover.
3. Place the carafe on the warming plate
and allow the coffee maker to brew the
vinegar solution.
4. Do not use a filter when decalcifying.
5. When the vinegar solution has finished
brewing, empty the carafe and rinse
out with cold water.
6. Refill the illuminated water reservoir
with cold water only and run another
brew cycle to remove any remaining
vinegar solution.
To Remove Calcium Build-up from
Carafe
Hard water or repeated use can leave a
white stain on the carafe, which will turn
brown from the coffee or tea. To clean the
carafe:
1. Fill the carafe with a solution of equal
parts of tap water and vinegar and let
the carafe stand with the solution for
20-30 minutes.
2. Use a soft brush to brush the inside of
the carafe to further loosen the build-
up.
3. Discard the solution and wash the
carafe with warm soapy water then
rinse well.
NOTE
: Frequency of cleaning required
depends on frequency of use and
cleaning between brews.
SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVALS
:
Type of Water Cleaning Frequency
Soft Water: After 80 brews
Hard Water: After 40 brews

warming plate and coffee will
automatically begin flowing through
the filter basket. Make sure the
carafe is placed correctly on the
warming plate.
