12. CLEANING

CAUTION: Make sure machine is turned off and cooled down. Never use scouring agents. Never immerse the machine in any liquid. Never clean machine under running water. Dishwasher safe (upper rack): GoldTone Filter and Filter Insert.

Special Cleaning Tips:

12a. GoldTone Filter: Clean after brewing. Do not let used coffee sit for hours in the filter. Coffee oils will clog the mesh, causing the coffee to overflow the next time you brew coffee. 12b. Filter Insert /Drip Stop: Clean the Filter Insert and the drip stop under running water. Test that the drip stop closes completely under running water (Fig 5).

12c. Bean Container: When the bean container is empty, use a dry cloth to wipe off any oil deposits. Never pour any liquid into the bean container. Never try to disassemble the bean container. 12d. The Feeder Channel: Periodically check the feeder channel for oil and coffee build-up. As long as you can see coffee flowing freely through the feeder channel window there is no need to open the cover. The feeder channel should be cleaned in any of the following situations:

moisture or heavy oil build-up has caused the ground coffee to block the feeder channel, or

you do not plan on using the grinder for more than a week. For cleaning, please follow this sequence:

Make sure the GoldTone filter is inserted in the Filter Insert.

With a pointed tip push the small pin in the window down and slide the plastic cover forward (fig. 6 & 7).

Wipe the inside clean with a dry cloth.

Replace the feeder channel cover.

13. Decalcifying

When the brewing process slows down, it is time to decalcify your CoffeeTEAM. If you use your CoffeeTEAM daily we

recommend to descale at least twice a year. If you use hard water, it might be necessary to descale more often. Important:

Before decalcifying, remove the Goldtone Filter and Charcoal Filter.

13a. Decalcifying with DURGOL

Capresso recommends DURGOL for drip coffee makers. Durgol removes any calcium deposit up to 20 times faster than vinegar. Durgol is available through www.frieling.com.

1.Remove GoldTone Filter and Charcoal Filter.

2.Fill water container with 18 oz. of cold water and add 6 oz. Durgol.

3.Important: Make sure the Filter Insert is in place and the carafe is empty.

4.Place the carafe with the lid closed into the machine.

5.The BREW light is illuminated. Push the ON/OFF button.

6.When the solution has run through, remove the carafe, empty and rinse thoroughly.

Important: let the machine cool down for 5 minutes.

7.Fill 20 oz. of fresh cold water into the water tank and brew through the machine.

13b. Using other Decalcifying Agents

All decalcifying agents are acidic and must be handled carefully. Check the information on the packaging before using. Only use decalcifying agents suitable for drip coffee makers and follow the instructions which come with the agent.

When the solution has run through, remove the carafe, empty and rinse thoroughly.

Important: let the machine cool down for 5 minutes.

Fill 20 oz. of fresh cold water into the water tank and brew through the machine.
