DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium
deposits that form over time on the metal parts
of the coffeemaker.
For best performance from your coffeemaker,
decalcify the base unit from time to time. The
frequency depends upon the hardness of your tap
water and how often you use the coffeemaker.
NOTE: Before decalcifying your coffeemaker,
remember to remove the charcoal water filter from
the water filter holder located in the water reservoir.
If the Clean LED indicator light begins to flash when
the coffeemaker is turned on, it is telling you that the
calcium buildup is interfering with the functioning of
your coffeemaker and the flavor of your coffee.
To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with a
mixture of ¹⁄
³
white vinegar and ²⁄
³
water. Press the
Clean button. When the Clean LED indicator glows,
turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the Brew/Off
button. The Clean LED will shine steadily. The
coffeemaker is now in Clean mode. One cycle
should be sufficient to adequately clean the
coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the
five beeps sound, the coffeemaker will shut off. Turn
the coffeemaker on to see if the Clean LED continue
to flash. If it does, turn coffeemaker off and then
repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution
of vinegar and water.
If the Clean LED no longer flashes, turn the
coffeemaker off and then run one cycle of fresh,
cold water through the unit before using the unit
again to brew coffee.
Notes on the Clean Function
Pressing the Clean button cancels all other settings.
If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return
the coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing
Brew/Off button will also exit the Clean mode and
turn the coffeemaker off.
