CLEANING YOUR COFFEE MAKER
CAUTION: Always make sure coffee maker is unplugged and
warming plate is cool before attempting to clean. To protect against
electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug or unit in water or other
liquid.
The outside of your coffee maker can be cleaned by wiping the surface
with a damp, soft cloth.
IMPORTANT: Never immerse the coffee maker in water or other liquid.
Glass carafe, carafe lid and removable filter basket may be washed with
warm, soapy water or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. Do not
place any other parts of the coffee maker in the dishwasher.
To clean the permanent filter, empty the grounds and rinse thoroughly.
Do not clean the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth as the cloth
may have a lint residue that could clog the coffee maker.
For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad with a non-abrasive
cleaner. Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
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 of the coffee maker’s brewing time. The slow
down can be eliminated by periodically decalcifying the coffee maker.
To decalcify, fill the carafe with cold water and two tablespoons of white
vinegar. Pour the solution into the water reservoir, then close the lid.
Place the carafe on the warming plate and allow the coffee maker to
brew the vinegar solution. While decalcifying, do not use a filter in the
filter basket. When the vinegar solution has finished brewing, empty the
carafe and rinse it out with cold water. Refill the water reservoir with cold
water only and run another brew cycle to remove any remaining vinegar
solution. Repeat if necessary.
