Brewer Overview
Helpful Hints
1. Plug the brewer into its own grounded outlet.
If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances. your brewer may not function properly. The brewer should be operated on its own circuit. separate from other appliances.
2. Keep your brewer turned “ON” at all times.
To brew a fresh cup of coffee. tea. hot cocoa. or other beverage anytime you want. we suggest you keep your brewer turned “ON” all the time.
However. the brewer is fully programmable so you can sett to turn on and off automatically to match your schedule. Or. if you prefer. set the brewer to automatically turn off after a period of time. Follow the simple instructions on pages
12-13 to make using the brewer convenient for you
3. For the best tasting gourmet coffee. tea. hot cocoa. or other beverage. Keurig recommends the use of filtered water in the brewer.
Wealso recommend the Omnipure Filter Kit. Keurig (#5572)
4. Customize Your Size. Flavor & Brew.
With the choice of over 250 varieties of K-Cup pods and 5 brew sizes (4 02. 6 oz. 802. 10 oz. and 12.02.) your Keurig brewer gives you endless options to customize the size. flavor. and brew that's perfect for you. For a strong. intense cup. select an Extra Bold K-Cup pod (with up to 30% more ground coffee than regular varieties] and brew the size that’s right for you. The smaller the brew size. the more intense the flavor in your cup. The larger the brew size. the less intense the flavor in your cup.
5. Brewing into a travel mug.
To brew into a travel mug. simply remove the Drip Tray Assembly and place the travel mug onthe Drip Tray Base
6. Descale the brewer regularly.
Please refer to pages 15 and 16 for instructions.

5. Remove the top polyfoam packaging material.
6. Carefully lift brewer off of the bottom polyfoam and place it upright ona flat. steady surface.

Descaling Your Brewer
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 to 6 months 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
Before you begin. you will need a large ceramic mug. fresh water. Keurig Descaling Solution. and access toa sink. Do not use a paper cup
The following outlines the steps required to prepare the brewer before the descaling procedure:
1. Unplug the brewer from the power supply.
2. Disconnect or interrupt the external water supply feeding the brewer.
3. Drain the internal hot and cold water tank (refer to page 17).
4. Remove the two screws located on the back. top. left of the brewer. Remove the top cover to gain access to the cold water tank.
5. Pour the entire bottle of Keurig Descaling Solution into the opening. Then refill the empty bottle with bottled or filtered water and pour into the opening.
6. Reconnect the power supply.
7. Proceed with the descaling procedure on page 16
Descaling Procedure
STEP 1: FIRST DESCALING SOLUTION RINSE
+ Press the Power Switch to power on the brewer.
+ Place a large mug on the Drip Tray Plate and run a cleansing brew using the largest brew size. Do not add a K-Cup pod. Pour the contents of the mug into the sink.
STEP 2: SECOND DESCALING SOLUTION RINSE
+ Repeat the brew process without a K-Cup pod. until "ADD WATER” is indicated. Let the brewer stand for at least 30 minutes while still on
+ After 30 minutes. discard any residual solution through the drain tubes
STEP 3: FRESH WATER RINSE
+ Ensure the internal cold water tank is filled with fresh water.
+ Place a large mug on the Drip Tray Plate and run a cleansing brew using the largest brew size. Do not add a K-Cup pod. Pour the contents of the mug into the sink.
+ Repeat brew process until you have completed at least 12 brews using the largest brew size. You may need to refill the cold water tank at least one time during this process.
NOTE: The cleaning action of Keurig Descaling Solution may result ina 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.
+ If there is Keurig Descaling Solution in the cold water tank. discard the contents through the drain tubes. (follow Draining the Brewer instructions on page 17). rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly and refill with water.
+ 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 the brewer to sit unplugged for at least 30 minutes before continuing with the rinse.
For further descale information please contact your Keurig Authorized Distributor.
