soapy water. Do not place any of these parts in the dishwasher
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh detergents, or steel wool to
clean any part of your coffeemaker.

Monthly Maintenance
Water contains minerals and dissolved particles that can build up
over time in your coffeemaker reducing its performance. To increase
the longevity and maintain the quality of your brewed coffee it is
recommended that you decalcify your coffeemaker once a month.
The decalcification process will remove the buildup and deposits within
your coffeemaker.
Never pour any other liquid other than cold water or a water/vinegar
mixture into the water tank.
Complete the following steps to decalcify your coffeemaker:
1 Remove Water Tank from the Coffeemaker Housing. Add white
vinegar up to the 3 cup mark on the tank. Fill the balance of the Tank
with cold water up to the 12 cup mark.
2 Place empty Thermal Carafe into Housing with Lid securely closed.
3 Ensure that Filter Basket is empty and clean.
4 Press On/Off button to brew the water/vinegar mixture.
5 Once the Coffeemaker has finished brewing the mixture, turn the
Coffeemaker off by pressing the On/Off Button. Empty the Thermal
Carafe, remove the Water Tank and rinse both thoroughly.
6 Place empty Carafe into Housing with Lid securely closed.
7 Rinse the Coffeemaker by filling the Water Tank with cold water only.
Fill it up to the 12 cup mark and place back into Coffeemaker
Housing. Press the On/Off Button to rinse the cold water though the
coffeemaker.
