2. Cleaning the Funnel —The Funnel can be
removed from the K-Cup
®
Holder by pulling
on it until it pops off (fig. 19). The Funnel is
dishwasher safe. To replace it, just snap it
back onto the K-Cup Holder Assembly.
3. Cleaning the Exit Needle —The Exit Needle is
located on the inside bottom of the K-Cup
Holder Assembly. Should a clog arise due to
coffee grinds, it can be cleaned using a paper
clip or similar tool. Remove K-Cup Holder
assembly and detach Funnel. Insert the paper
clip (as shown in fig. 19) into the Needle to
loosen the clog and push it out. The K-Cup
Holder is dishwasher safe.
CAUTION: There are sharp needles that puncture the K-Cup above the K-Cup
Holder and in the bottom of the K-Cup Holder. To avoid risk of injury, do not
put your fingers in the K-Cup Assembly Housing.
Cleaning the Water Reservoir & Water Reservoir Lid
The Water Reservoir Lid or Water Reservoir should not be put into the
dishwasher. They should be cleaned with a damp, soapy, non-abrasive cloth
and rinsed thoroughly. 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.

De-Scaling Your Brewer
Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral
content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in
your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic, but left unattended, it can hinder Brewer
performance. De-scaling 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. It is
possible for calcium deposits to build up faster,
making it necessary to de-scale more often.
This Brewer is equipped with sensors to
detect when scale buildup is interfering with
the performance of the Brewer. When this is
detected, “DE-SCALE” will be displayed on
the LCD Control Center (fig. 20). However,
even if “DE-SCALE” is not displayed, you
should continue to de-scale your Brewer
every 3-6 months.
You should promptly de-scale if “DE-SCALE” is
displayed on the LCD Control Center. Properly
follow the de-scaling procedure described.
NOTE: The Brewer will continue to function even when “DE-SCALE” is displayed.
However, if you do not de-scale soon after it is displayed, continued scale build-
up could damage the Brewer. If this occurs, “DE-SCALE” will begin to blink to alert
you to the potential damage to the Brewer if you do not de-scale immediately.

De-Scaling Instructions
A. PREPARE
Step 1: Make sure you have at least 48 ounces of undiluted white vinegar
on hand. You will also need an empty sink and a large ceramic mug
(do not use a paper cup).
Step 2: Empty the water in the Water Reservoir.
Step 3: Disable “Auto Off” features.
B. FILL AND CLEAN
Step 1: Pour the vinegar into the Water Reservoir to fill it.
Step 2: Place a large mug on the Drip Tray Plate and run a water brew cycle.
DO NOT USE A K-CUP, just select the Large Mug brew size. Pour the
contents of the large mug into the sink.
Step 3: Repeat the brew process 3 times.
Step 4: Now let the Brewer stand for at least 4 hours while still on.
C. RINSE
Step 1: Ensure the Water Reservoir is filled with fresh water.
Step 2: Place a large mug on the Drip Tray Plate and run a water brew cycle.
Pour the contents of the large mug into the sink.
Step 3: Repeat brew process until the Water Reservoir is empty.
Step 4: You may need to perform additional water brew cycles if you notice
any residual taste.
NOTE: If “DE-SCALE” is still displayed on the LCD Control Center after
completing the procedure, repeat the de-scaling procedure above.
Service
Beyond these recommended cleaning and maintenance procedures this
Brewer is not user serviceable. For service, please refer to the Warranty
section of this guide.
Storage
Empty the Water Reservoir before storing, and take care to ensure that you
store your Brewer in a safe and frost free environment. Please be sure to
store your Brewer in its upright position to avoid water leakage from the inner
tank. If you store the Brewer in a cold environment, you run the risk of water
freezing inside the Brewer and causing damage. When you prepare to use it
after storage, we recommend rinsing the Water Reservoir with fresh water
and running three cleansing brews without a K-Cup.
If you plan to move your Brewer to a different location, turn the Brewer
off, unplug it, and empty the Water Reservoir. If your Brewer has been in
an environment below freezing, please be sure to let it warm to room
temperature for at least 2 hours before using.
Transport Brewer in the upright position to ensure inner tank does not leak
through vent.
