Care and Cleaning
CAUTION
Always unplug your coffee maker before cleaning.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE COFFEE MAKER
Clean the outside of the coffee maker with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use paper
towels or abrasive cloths and cleaners as they may scratch the finish.
CLEANING THE BREW BASKET AND MESH BASKET FILTER
Remove the mesh basket filter and brew basket. Discard any ground coffee. After
each brew, rinse the mesh basket filter and brew basket under running water. For a
deeper clean, wash in warm soapy water with a soft bristled brush. These parts are
NOT dishwasher safe.
CLEANING THE CARAFE
After each use, empty the carafe. Rinse the carafe and lid under warm running
water. Letting coffee stand overnight in the carafe can lead to staining. For a deeper
clean, wash regularly in warm, soapy water and a soft bristled brush. Do not use
abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the finish. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The
carafe and lid are NOT dishwasher safe
DESCALING
Hard water can cause mineral build-up on internal components. This can cause a
change in taste of the coffee, brewing temperature and brewing flow. The coffee
maker needs to be descaled regularly.
When Descale is flashing under the time display, it means
PM
that too much limescale has built up on the heater. Descale
the coffee maker as soon as possible according to below
Descale
instruction. The Descale indicator will go off following the
first rinse after descaling.
To descale, use a mixture of half water/half vinegar. Fill the reservoir to the MAX
indicator. Run the coffee maker through a brewing cycle using the 10 cup setting.
Once the mixture is gone, run the 10 cup brew setting 3 times using clear water in
the reservoir.
NOTE: When descaling, if carafe is removed, heater and pump is shut off and
displays "Err" error code, after 2 minutes the screen will return to idle clock state. To
fix error place the carafe back in place.
