Emptying the Hot Water Tank, Storage, Service

Emptying the Hot Water Tank

1.Ensure that the water fill lid is closed.

2.Place a cup on the drip plate then press and hold the brew button until all the water has been dispensed. Note, there will be a delay of 4 - 5 seconds until water starts to dispense.

Storage

Empty the Hot Water Tank before storing and take care to ensure that you store your Brewer in a safe and frost free environment. It is suggested to store your brewer in the upright position. If you store the Brewer in a cold environment, you run the risk of condensation freezing inside the Brewer and causing damage. When you prepare to use it after storage, we recommend wiping the Hot Water Tank with a damp lint-free cloth and running three cleansing brews without a K-Cup®.

If your Brewer has been in an environment below freezing, please be sure to let it warm to room temperature for 2 hours before using.

De-Scaling Your Brewer

Mineral content in bottled or filtered water varies. Depending on the mineral content of the water, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic but left unat- tended, it can hinder Brewer performance. De- scaling your Brewer helps maintain the heating element, and other internal parts of the Brewer that come in contact with water.

The Brewer should be de-scaled every 3-6 months to ensure optimal performance or when there are white deposits in the Hot Water Tank. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often.

Step 1: Make sure you have at least 8 ounces of undiluted white vinegar on hand. You will also need a 10 oz ceramic cup (do not use a paper cup) and access to a sink.

Step 2: Fill Hot Water Tank with 8 ounces of undiluted white vinegar up to the FILL LEVEL mark, place a ceramic cup on the drip tray.

Step 3: Close the lid, and perform a brew into the ceramic cup without adding a K-Cup®.

Step 4: Pour the contents of the ceramic cup into the Hot Water Tank, careful the liquid will be hot, close the lid. Start a brew but power off the brewer just after it starts to dispense and then allow it to sit for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5: After the prescribed period of time, perform a brew without adding a K-Cup®. Empty the contents of the ceramic cup into the sink , be careful as contents may be hot.

Step 6: Fill the Hot Water Tank with 8 ounces of bottled water, close the water fill lid, place a cup on the drip tray and perform a brew.

Step 7: Repeat Step 6 three times using bottled water (with no K-Cup in place) to cleanse the brewer plumbing and get rid of any residual taste from the vinegar.

The brewer is now ready for normal use again.
