CLEANING
•Store coffee in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness. Do not reuse coffee grounds. This will impair the flavor of your coffee.
Care and Cleaning
Initial Use
Before using your new Soho Coffeemaker for the first time, be sure to thor- oughly wash the glass carafe and filter basket in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Thoroughly rinse reusable filter in HOT WATER ONLY as soap residue can leave a taste in your coffee. Wipe the exterior of unit with a damp cloth to remove any dust or packing residue. Run one cycle through with just water. Follow directions on page #6, leaving out coffee and using only water.
After Each Use
1.Before cleaning, make sure unit is turned off and is unplugged from the wall outlet.
2.Remove filter basket and dispose of coffee grounds and disposable filter, if used.
3.To clean carafe and filter basket, wash in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. DO NOT WASH PARTS IN DISHWASHER. When cleaning carafe, do not use abrasive materials as they may damage carafe.
4.Thoroughly rinse reusable filter in hot water only.
5.When all parts are clean, return carafe and filter basket with reusable filter to the unit.
6.To clean exterior of unit, wipe with a damp cloth.
DO NOT SUBMERGE UNIT IN WATER.
Extensive Cleaning
Extensive cleaning of your unit is recommended once a month. Mineral depos- its can build up over time in the water reservoir causing lengthy brew times and a decrease in the flavor of your coffee.
1.To clean, open top coffeemaker lid and pour 1 pint white vinegar into the water reservoir.
2.Place filter in filter basket – do not add coffee. Move shower head toward front over the filter basket until shower head clicks into place and close lid. Push the switch to “ON”. The BLUE light will illuminate.
3.Run white vinegar through one brewing cycle. Once brewing cycle is fin ished, discard contents in carafe.
4.Remove carafe from unit and fill with 12 cups cold water. Pour water into the water reservoir and repeat brewing cycle using a fresh disposable filter or clean reusable filter. Do NOT add coffee; use only clear water. Once brew- ing cycle is finished, switch unit to “OFF”, unplug from the wall and discard contents in carafe.
