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.
Maintenance
Any other servicing should be performed by
an authorized service representative.
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. Though
scale is non-toxic, it can hinder brewer
performance. De-scaling your brewer will
help maintain the heating element and other
parts that come in contact with water.
For optimal performance, de-scale your
brewer every 3 to 6 months. It is possible for
calcium deposits to build up faster, making it
necessary to de-scale more often. When all
the lights flash in sequence upon turning the
unit on, this indicates the need to de-scale.
Note: Before de-scaling your brewer,
remember to remove the charcoal water
filter from the water filter holder located 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 paper cup)
Access to a sink
Step 1: First Vinegar Rinse
Fill water reservoir with 13 oz. of white
vinegar and 26 oz. of water.
Place the ceramic mug or container on
the drip tray.
Press and hold Power and 6 oz. buttons
for 2 seconds to start de-scale function.
Discard contents of mug into the sink.
Repeat until ADD WATER light comes on.
When de-scaling is complete, all LED
lights will be on.
Discard any remaining diluted vinegar
into sink.
Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse
Repeat Step 1 three times, using
fresh water in place of vinegar
.
This will clean the brewer plumbing
and remove any residual vinegar taste.
The brewer is now ready for normal use.
