11. DECALCIFYING

For prolonged use of your appliance it is necessary to decalcify regularly. Calcium (limestone) found in drinking water will leave deposits in the machine. We highly recommend that you decalci- fy your coffee maker at least every four months.

ATTENTION: Before decalcifying, remove the GoldTone filter, the water filtration container and the charcoal filter. Do not place the GoldTone filter or filter paper in the filter holder insert.

When to Decalcify:

A slowdown in brewing indicates calcium deposits are present in the coffee maker.

How to Decalcify:

With Vinegar:

Fill the water container with approximately 40 oz. (8-cups) of water and 6 tablespoons of citric acid or white vinegar and operate the appliance twice.

After decalcifying, let the appliance run twice with plain water. This will rinse away any remaining vinegar.

Rinse the carafe with lukewarm water and clean the filter holder

and the water chamber in a warm water and mild liquid soap solution.

You can also use any of the decalcifying agents available for drip coffee makers from your local coffee store or supermarket. Follow their enclosed instructions.

Note: Decalcifiers are acids and therefore must be handled properly. Please check the information on the packaging of the decalcifying agents before using.
