24 oz. of white household vinegar.
•Place the empty carafe with the lid closed underneath the filter holder.
•Turn the machine on for 2 minutes.
•Turn machine off and let sit for 15 minutes.
•Turn machine on again and let the remaining vinegar pass through.
•When the red light turns off, remove the carafe, empty and rinse a few times with fresh cold water.
•Rinse the filter holder thoroughly with fresh water.
•Fill 20 to 24 oz. of fresh cold water into the water tank and brew through machine to remove any vinegar odors.
11b. Using other Decalcifying Agents Please make sure to only use decalci- fying agents suitable for drip coffee makers and follow the instructions which come with the agent. Attention: Decalcifying agents are acids and therefore must be handled properly. Please check the information on the packaging of the decalcifying agents before using.
12.Troubleshooting What to do if...
...Coffee drips from the filter, when the carafe is removed.
•Ground coffee sits in the drip stop and does not allow the drip stop to close properly. Immediately replace the carafe and wait until all the coffee has been filtered in the carafe. Now remove carafe and remove the Filter holder. Clean filter holder under run- ning water. Push the drip stop several
times to remove coffee particles. Over the sink fill some water into the filter holder and check if the drip stop closes properly.
...Ground coffee is flowing over the GoldTone Filter.
•Coffee is ground too fine.
•Use less coffee the next time (chapter 5c).
•Use a paper filter (size 4) instead of the GoldTone Filter.
