Drip Tray Plate should be periodically inspected and
cleaned with a damp soapy nonabrasive lint free cloth. The

dishwasher. To remove the Drip Tray, simply Lift upward,
keeping it level at all times to avoid spilling.

Cleaning and Emptying the Reservoir
Discard the remaining water by removing the Water Reservoir
Lid and turning the Water Reservoir upside down over the
sink. The Water Reservoir Lid should NOT be put into the
dishwasher. It should be cleaned with a damp, soapy, non-
abrasive cloth and rinsed thoroughly. The Water Reservoir is
dishwasher safe.
NOTE: DO NOT dry the inside of the Water Reservoir with a
cloth as lint may remain.
CAUTION: Please rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly
after cleaning to ensure that no cleaners or cleaning
solutions remain in this area as they may contaminate
the water supply in the Brewer. Do not immerse
appliance in water.
Storage
Empty the Water Reservoir before storing and take care to
ensure that you store your Brewer in a safe and frost free
environment. It is suggested to store your Brewer in the upright
position. If you store the Brewer in a cold environment, you
run the risk of condensation freezing inside the Brewer and
causing damage. When you prepare to use it after storage, we
recommend wiping the Water Reservoir with a damp lint-free
cloth and running three cleansing brews without a K-Cup
®
pack.
