CLEANING THE WATER
RESERVOIR
It is normal over time for discoloration,
spotting, or staining to appear in the water
reservoir. Results will vary depending on the
mineral content of the water used, but will not
affect the operation of the brewer. However, be
sure to clean the water reservoir regularly to
minimize buildup.
Clean inside the water reservoir with a damp,
lint-free cloth as necessary.
Descaling Your Single-Serve 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 coffeemaker. Though
scale is nontoxic, it can hinder coffeemaker
performance. Descaling your coffeemaker will
help maintain the heating element and other
parts that come in contact with water.
For optimal performance, descale your
coffeemaker every three to six months. It is
possible for calcium deposits to build up faster,
making it necessary to descale more often.
When POD and OVER ICE indicators flash
upon pressing the POD button for single-serve
use, this indicates the need to descale.
NOTE: Before descaling your coffeemaker,
remember to remove the charcoal water filter
from the water filter holder in the water
reservoir.
To begin, you will need the following:
13 oz of distilled white vinegar
26 oz of water
16 oz ceramic mug or container
(do not use a paper cup)
Access to a sink
Step 1: First Vinegar Rinse
1. Fill the water reservoir with 13 oz of white
vinegar and 26 oz of water.
2. Place the ceramic mug or container on the
drip tray.
3. Press and hold the POD and OVER ICE
buttons for 2 seconds to start the descale
function.
4. Discard contents of the mug into the sink.
5. Repeat until the ADD WATER indicator
appears in the LCD screen.
6. When descaling is complete, all LED lights
will be off.
7. Discard any remaining diluted vinegar into
the sink.
Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse
1. Repeat Step 1 three times, using fresh
water in place of vinegar.
2. This will clean the coffeemaker plumbing
and remove any residual vinegar taste.
MAINTENANCE
Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
