CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR ICED TEA MAKER
Cleaning your MR. COFFEE® Iced Tea Maker
Always unplug the iced tea maker and allow it to cool before cleaning. To maintain the
quality of all the parts and minimize tea stains, we recommend that the pitcher, its
lid and the brew basket be hand washed with warm water and a mild detergent
after each use. Do not wash any part in a dishwasher.
Hard water can leave mineral deposits inside the pitcher and the brew basket. To
remove these, fill the brew basket and the pitcher with warm, undiluted white
household vinegar. Let soak for 20 minutes, then rinse.
Never use harsh, abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials. They
may cause scratches which can lead to breakage.
CAUTION! Never immerse the Iced Tea Maker itself in water, in any
other liquid or in the dishwasher.
Decalcifying your MR. COFFEE® Iced Tea Maker
Mineral (calcium/limestone) found in the water will leave deposits into your iced tea
maker and will affect its performance. If you notice an increase in steaming or if the
pumping action stops before all of the water has been pumped out of the
appliance, it’s time to clean it. The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness
(mineral content) of your tap water. Please see the following chart:
It’s recommended that you regularly remove mineral deposits by using MR. COFFEE®
Cleaner or undiluted, white household vinegar. MR. COFFEE® Cleaner is available at
many retail stores or by calling the MR. COFFEE® Consumer Service Department at 1-
800-MR COFFEE (1-800-672-6333).
1. Follow package instructions to prepare one batch of MR. COFFEE® Cleaner. Pour the
mixture or one quart of undiluted, white household vinegar into the water reservoir.
2. Place the pitcher lid on the pitcher and slide the pitcher into place under the iced
tea maker.
