Cleaning the Coffeemaker
Your Coffeemaker must be cleaned when you notice any of the follow conditions:
• excessive steaming
• increased brew cycle times
• the pumping action stops before all of the water has been pumped
from the water reservoir
These conditions are caused by lime or other mineral deposits.
How frequently you clean your Coffeemaker depends upon the hardness of your
tap water. The following table gives suggested cleaning intervals.
Type of Water Cleaning frequency
Soft water Every 80 brew cycles
Hard water Every 40 brew cycles
To clean mineral deposits from your Coffeemaker:
1) Pour four cups of undiluted white
household vinegar into the water reservoir.
2) Place a paper filter into the removable
filter basket and close the brew basket lid.
3) Place the empty decanter on the
warming plate.
Make sure to center the decanter
accurately on the warming plate
to avoid the possibility of overflow.
4) Start the brew cycle.
