Deliming
The Iced Tea PotTM must be delimed when you begin to notice an increase in heating time of the water in the brewer. This condition may be caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of the water used. The following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVAL
Type of Water | Cleaning Frequency |
Soft Water | every 60 brew cycles |
Hard Water | every 30 brew cycles |
