DECALCIFICATION

Calcium deposits may build up in the coffee maker as a result of minerals commonly found in drinking water. The build-up is normal and may result in a slow down of the coffee maker’s brewing time. The slow down can be eliminated by periodically decalcifying the coffee maker.

HOW TO DECALCIFY YOUR COFFEE MAKER

1.To decalcify, fill the carafe with cold water and two tablespoons of white vinegar.

2.Pour the solution into the water tank, and then close the lid. Place the carafe on the non-stick plate and allow the coffee maker to brew the vinegar solution.

3.While decalcifying, do not use a filter in the filter basket. When the vinegar solution has finished brewing, empty the carafe and rinse it out with cold water.

4.Refill the water reservoir with cold water only and run another brew cycle to remove any remaining vinegar solution. Repeat if necessary.
