Cleaning and Maintenance

COMPLETELY CLEAN AND DRY ALL PARTS AFTER EVERY USE.

Be sure to unplug the appliance before cleaning. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug or unit in water or other liquid.

The glass carafe, carafe lid, and filter basket may be washed with warm soapy water, or placed in the top rack of the dishwasher. Do not place any other part or parts of your coffee maker in the dishwasher. The heating plate may be wiped with a clean, damp cloth when necessary. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners on any part or parts of your coffee maker.

Wipe the appliance’s exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove stains.

Never immerse the heating plate or main housing in water or any other liquid. Do not try to clean the inside of the water chamber with a cloth, this will leave a residue of lint and may clog your coffee maker. Just rinse with cold water periodically.

Mineral Deposits and Decalcifying

Mineral deposit build-up frequently occurs in coffee makers. This build-up is quite normal and is caused by minerals commonly found in drinking water. Periodically, your coffee maker will need cleaning to remove any mineral deposits that may form. Excessive steaming or prolonged brewing cycle is a sign that your coffee maker needs decalcifying. During decalcifying, more steaming will occur than while brewing coffee.
