DELIMING
Periodically, you should delime the brewer to clear any deposits that may have
accumulated due to impurities in the water source.
NOTE - Unplug the brewer and let it cool down before
deliming.
1) Unscrew the sprayhead with your fingertips and set it
aside.
2) Insert all but two inches of the flexible deliming tool
(Supplied) into the sprayhead tube.
3) Slide the tool in and out five or six times to loosen lime
in the sprayhead tube. Remove the tool.
4) Pour one carafe of fresh water into the brewer, set the
empty carafe on the brewer, and close the lid.
5) Check the holes in the sprayhead. If plugged with lime,
they may be cleared by using a toothpick. Clean the
sprayhead with a cloth and mild detergent. Rinse the
sprayhead with water before reinstalling.
6) Plug in the brewer and allow the water in the tank to reheat before using. The
frequency of
deliming depends on the mineral content of your water.
ROUTINE CLEANING
Rinsing the brew funnel and carafe after each use
is the only routine cleaning required. Occasionally, wipe
the outside of the brewer including the area above the
funnel with a damp cloth. The carafe may be disassembled
for cleaning. Rotate the lid counterclockwise to remove.
Occasionally, the FlavorGard® valve should be removed and
cleaned. Lift at the edge and pull up. After rinsing, replace
by aligning the tab on the FlavorGard® valve with the slot
inside the carafe lid and press in place. Use of a mild, non-abrasive detergent is
recommended. Do not use a scrub pad or other abrasive cleaning device as this
will scratch the stainless steel surface. (The brew funnel and carafe are top-rack
dishwasher safe.)

WATER QUALITY
Install a water conditioner if your water contains excessive amounts of sediment,
taste, or odors.
SOFTENED WATER / DECAFFEINATED COFFEE
Use of decaffeinated coffee and/or softened water may cause the brewed coffee
to drain more slowly through the paper filter, occasionally resulting in an overflow
of grounds into the carafe. While this is not unusual in coffee brewing, it can
be avoided by using slightly less coffee, a courser grind, or both. If the overflow
persists, please contact BUNN
