Extensive Cleaning

Extensive cleaning of your unit is recommended once a month. Min- eral deposits can build up over time in the water reservoir causing lengthy brew times and a decrease in the fl avor of your coffee.

1.To clean, open lid and remove fi lter from the unit. Pour 1 pint white vinegar into the water reservoir.

2.Replace fi lter to the unit and close lid. Push the “ON/ATUO/OFF”. The red “BREW” light will illuminate.

3.Run white vinegar through a brewing cycle. Once brewing cycle is

finished, discard contents in carafe. Remove carafe from unit and

fill with 12 cups cold water. Pour water into the water reservoir and repeat brewing cycle. Once brewing cycle is fi nished, switch unit to “OFF”, unplug from the wall and discard contents in carafe.

4.Clean carafe and fi lter with hot, soapy water, with a soft brush; rinse clean and dry.

5.When the unit has cooled, clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Your unit is now clean and ready to brew.
