NOTE: Over time, discoloration, spotting or staining may
appear in the Hot Water Tank. This is normal and will vary
depending on the mineral content of the bottled or filtered
water used in the Brewer and will not affect the operation of
the Brewer.
Cleaning the Hot Water Tank
To access the Hot Water Tank, press the Water Marking Button
and the Water Fill Lid will pop open. Inspect the Hot Water
Tank area and clean with a damp lint free cloth as necessary.
Close the Water Fill Lid when finished.

2. Place a cup on the Drip Plate then press and hold the
BREW Button until all the water has been dispensed. Note,
there will be a delay of 4-5 seconds until water starts

Storage
Empty the Hot Water Tank 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 Hot Water Tank with a damp lint-free
cloth and running three cleansing brews without a K-Cup
®
Pack.
If your Brewer has been in an environment below freezing,
please be sure to let it warm to room temperature for 2
hours before using.
De-Scaling Your Brewer
Mineral content in bottled or filtered water varies. Depending
on the mineral content of the water, calcium deposits or
scale may build up in your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic but left
unattended, it can hinder Brewer performance. Descaling
your Brewer helps maintain the heating element, and other
internal parts of the Brewer that come in contact with water.
The Brewer should be de-scaled every 3-6 months to ensure
optimal performance or when there are white deposits in the
Hot Water Tank. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up
faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often.
Step 1: Make sure you have at least 8 ounces of undiluted
white vinegar on hand. You will also need a 10 oz
ceramic mug (do not use a paper cup) and access
to a sink.
Step 2: Fill Hot Water Tank with 8 ounces of undiluted white
vinegar up to the FILL LEVEL mark, place a ceramic
mug on the Drip Tray Plate.
