CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF C500AP
Using a daily routine of cleaning the external parts of the C500AP should maintain it's new appearance and
insure that the flavor of the coffee is always good.
1. Wipe off any spills, dust or debris from exterior surfaces.
2. Rinse out the brew cone.
3. Clean sprayhead and dome using a non-toxic cleaner and a damp cloth.
4. Clean the brew cone slide rails with a brush or damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
Stainless Steel Polish can be used to clean the outside surfaces of the C500AP coffee brewer. This is to
prevent scratching of the stainless steel surfaces.
Preventive maintenance is essential in keeping your Curtis coffee brewer performing at it's peak. Regular
cleaning will pay off with an appealing, high performance coffee brewing machine.
Preventive Maintenance
1. Remove the sprayhead from brewer and clean it once a week; more often in heavy lime areas.
2. The inside of the heating tank may, occasionally, require removing of lime build-up. The
frequency is determined by local water conditions.
Daily Cleaning
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Make sure the brewer is receiving enough water pressure. Open the
water line and verify water flow.
Turn the power off. Disconnect wires from water inlet coil terminals and
connect a power cord to the terminals. Plug cord into a 120V outlet and
verify if water flows when plugged in and stops when power is discon-
nected. If valve fails this test, replace valve or coil.
When the water level gets below the probe tip, water should automati-
cally refill the tank. If not, pull wire off the probe terminal. Water should
now start flowing into the tank. If not, check the water level control board
(see step 4) or inlet valve (step 5).
PROBLEM: WATER DOES NOT FLOW INTO HEATING TANK.
1. Water line turned off
or water filter needs
changing
2. Water inlet valve coil
burned out
3. Grounded probe
