to delime water reservoir

1.Make sure the Control Knob is in the “OFF” position and that the Power Cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

2.If the appliance is cool and the pressure has been released, remove the Water Reservoir Cap and fill Reservoir with fresh, undiluted white household vinegar.

3.Allow appliance to sit overnight with the vinegar solution in the Water Reservoir.

4.Discard vinegar through the top opening of the Espresso Maker by turning the machine upside down over the sink.

5.Rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly with tap water by filling tank half full with water and then pouring the water back out into the sink, repeating this step twice.

To delime internal parts

1.Make sure you delime the inside of the Water Reservoir first by following the “Deliming” steps above.

2.Fill Glass Carafe to 4 cup mark with fresh, undiluted white household vinegar to the top of the metal band and pour into Water Reservoir.

3.Screw the Water Reservoir Cap and make sure the Cap is on tight.

4.Insert the Filter Holder (with Filter) in its groove and turn handle to the right until it shifts to LOCK Position. Place the Glass Carafe with lid on the Drip Tray.

5.Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.

6.Turn the Control Knob to the BREW position.

7.When vinegar reaches the 2 cup mark on the Glass Carafe, place a cup with cold water under the Frothing Aid. Insert the Frothing Arm into the water and slowly turn the control knob to the STEAM position.

8.Allow steam to fully run out.

9.Turn Control Knob to the OFF position.

Repeat Steps 1 – 7 as necessary using only tap water to rinse any remaining traces of vinegar out of the appliance. Allow unit to cool for 30 minutes between each rinse cycle.

carafe cleaning

Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the Glass Carafe. Coffee discolors these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside the Carafe. To remove these stains, follow these simple steps:

1.Use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and hot water.

2.Let solution stand in carafe for about 20 minutes and then discard.

3.Wash and rinse the carafe thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. These may cause scratches which can lead to breakage.
