sion cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.

Descaling the Coffeemaker
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 3 to 6
months. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it
necessary to descale more often.
To begin, you will need the following:
• 17 oz. of distilled white vinegar
• 34 oz. of water
• 16 oz. ceramic mug or container(do not use paper cup)
• Access to a sink

2. This will clean the Coffeemaker plumbing and remove any residual
vinegar taste.
F. After the work is completed, the buzzer will sound three times, and the
indicator light of the start button will go out from being constantly on,
returning the product to the standby state.
G. During the working process, press the lit "Work" key to stop the
product from working, and the "Work" key indicator light goes out, while
