CAUTION: If the filter basket is not completely inserted, the Pause & Serve feature will not function properly.

It could cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.

•Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.

•Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.

•Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed black coffee is due to the extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used. Over extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee Maker.

CLEANING YOUR COFFEE MAKER

CAUTION: Always make sure Coffee Maker is unplugged and warming plate is cool before attempting to clean. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug or unit in water or other liquid.

• The outside of your Coffee Maker can be cleaned by wiping the surface with a damp, soft cloth. IMPORTANT: Never immerse the Coffee Maker in water or other liquid.

•Glass carafe, carafe lid and removable filter basket may be washed with warm, soapy water, or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. Do not place any other parts of the Coffee Maker in the dishwasher.

•Do not clean the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth as the cloth may have a lint residue that could clog the Coffee Maker.

•For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad with a non-abrasive cleanser. Do not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.

•Calcium deposits may build up in the Coffee Maker as a result of minerals commonly found in drinking water. The build-up is normal and may result in a slow-down of the Coffee Maker’s brewing time. The slow-down can be eliminated by periodically decalcifying the Coffee Maker.

•To decalcify, pour 1/2 quart of white household vinegar into the reservoir. Place the carafe on the warming plate and turn the unit on. Allow unit to run for 2 minutes, then shut off and let it stand for 30 minutes to allow for softening of the deposits. After 30 minutes, pour the contents of the carafe back into the reservoir and replace the carafe. Turn the unit on and allow entire solution to cycle through the unit. Discard the contents of the carafe and refill the unit with cold water. Run 2 cycles of clean cold water through the unit to get rid of any remaining vinegar. Repeat if necessary.

NOTE: If hard water is used, Coffee Maker needs to be clean every 40 cycles. If soft water is used, clean your Coffee Maker ever 80 cycles. If your brew time is slowing down, clean your Coffee Maker more often.
