2.Cleaning the Funnel — The Funnel can be removed from the K-Cup Holder by pulling on it until it snaps off (fig. 3). The Funnel can be placed on the top shelf of a dishwasher. NOTE: Use low temperature cycles in the dishwasher. To replace the Funnel, just snap it back onto the K-Cup Holder Assembly.
3.Cleaning the Exit Needle — The Exit Needle is located on the inside bottom of the K-Cup Holder Assembly. Should a clog arise due to coffee grinds, it can be cleaned using a paper clip or similar tool. Remove K-Cup Holder Assembly and detach Funnel. Insert the paper clip (fig. 4) into the Exit Needle to loosen the clog and push it out. The K-Cup Holder can be placed on the top shelf of a dishwasher. NOTE: Use low temperature cycles in the dishwasher. The Entrance Needle does not require cleaning.

CAUTION: There are sharp needles that puncture the K-Cup above the K-Cup Holder and in the bottom of the K-Cup Holder. To avoid risk of injury, do not put your fingers in the K-Cup Assembly Housing.
NOTE: Over time, discoloration, spotting or staining may appear in the Cold Water Reservoir. This is normal and will vary depending on the mineral content of the bottled or filtered water used. This will not affect the operation of the Brewer. However, be sure to clean the Cold Water Reservoir regularly to minimize build-up (see page 14).
