causing slower brewing time and possibly an off flavor in the
coffee. Use a cleaner recommended for coffee makers. To
descale your unit:

Chamber. Add cold water to the level 2 indicator.
2. Place a clean #2 paper cone filter in the filter basket and close
Water Chamber Lid. Place both Mugs in proper position on
Base of unit.
3. Follow “Brewing” instructions (without coffee).
4. When the Indicator Light turns off, wait 15 minutes and pour
solution from Mugs back into coffee maker. Be sure that the
Filter Basket is still in proper position.
5. Turn unit on again. Allow all solution to empty into Mugs.
When Indicator Light turns off, discard solution.
6. Allow unit to cool 10 minutes. To rinse unit, fill Water Chamber
with fresh, cold water up to the level 2 indicator. Insert a fresh
paper filter into Filter Basket. Close Water Chamber Lid.
Place both Mugs in proper position on Base of unit and turn
Power Switch on.

filter.Wash and dry Mugs and other removable parts.
