STEP 2:
Repeat the brew process without a K-Cup® pod at least 10
times, pouring the contents of the mug into the sink after
each cycle.
STEP 3:
Power off the brewer and drain both hot and cold water
tanks. Reconnect the brewer to the filtered cold water
supply to refill the brewer.
Power on the brewer and perform several rinse brews
to remove any residual taste from the Keurig® Descaling
Solution.
NOTE: The cleaning action of Keurig
®
Descaling Solution may result in a “foam” dispensed
from the brewer. This is natural, as the solution is reacting with the scale inside. For a
brewer that is heavily scaled, the brewer may not fill properly after the descaler is added. If
this occurs, you may see only a small or no output dispensed, followed by the sound of air
blowing out.
If this occurs:
• Turn off and unplug the brewer.
• Plug the brewer back in, power on, and repeat the Step 3 Fresh Water Rinse cycle. The
brewer should begin to function normally as the solution is rinsed out and the scale is
removed. If problem persists, allow brewer to sit unplugged for at least 30 minutes before
continuing with the rinse.
For further information on descaling, please contact your Keurig® Authorized Distributor.
Mineral content in water varies from place to place.
Depending on the mineral content of your water, calcium
deposits or scale may build up in your brewer. Scale is non-
toxic but if left unattended can hinder brewer performance.
Regularly descaling your brewer every 3-6 months or 500
brews helps maintain the heating element, and other
internal parts that come in contact with water. Calcium
deposits may build up faster, making it necessary to descale
more often.
This brewer is equipped with sensors to detect when scale
build up is interfering with the performance of the brewer.
When this is detected, the brewer will alert you to descale.
Descaling Procedure
Before you begin, you will need a large ceramic mug, fresh
water, a Flojet pump or similar device, Keurig® Descaling
Solution, and access to a sink. Do not use a paper cup.
Ensure that there is no K-Cup® pod in the K-Cup® pod holder.
STEP 1:
Disconnect the brewer from the water supply and power it
off. Drain both the hot and cold water tanks. When empty,
clip the drain tubes back into place and replace the drain
plugs.
Power the brewer back on. Connect a Flojet pump system to
the brewer to add Keurig® Descaling Solution.
After the brewer has heated, place a ceramic mug on the
drip tray and run a brew cycle. When the brew process is
complete, discard the contents from the mug into the sink.
Let the brewer stand for at least one hour.
