Once clean, reverse the above steps.

Remove the carafe from the warming plate. Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and lid can be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher. The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on the upper rack only.

Do not use scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffeemaker.

Never immerse base unit in water or other liquid. To clean base, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing. Wipe warm- ing plate with a clean, damp cloth. Never use rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean the warming plate. Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.

*Note: Reservoir lid can also be removed for easy cleaning. Open the lid 60˚ and gently pull toward you. To replace, reverse steps.

DECALCIFICATION

Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which 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 cof- feemaker.

To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water. Turn the coffeemaker on by pressing the ON button. One cycle should be sufficient to adequately clean the coffeemaker. When the cycle is completed and the five beeps sound, turn coffeemaker off. Repeat operation this time using fresh cold water.

Another notable characteristic is the bean hopper, which can hold up to half a pound of coffee beans. This feature minimizes the need for frequent refills while ensuring that your coffee is always brewed from fresh beans. The DGB-500 also includes a charcoal water filter, ensuring that only the cleanest water is used in the brewing process, enhancing both the aroma and flavor of your coffee.

The machine is designed with ease of cleaning in mind. The removable grinding chamber and filter basket make it simple to clean after each use, helping to maintain the quality of the coffee and prolong the life of the appliance.
