rinse with clean water and dry. Do not use
abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
NOTE: These parts can also be washed
in the top rack of the dishwasher.
Installing the charcoal lter:
Using the lter is optional but strongly
recommended. The Coffee Maker will
operate normally without the lter, but it
reduces contaminants that can impair
coffee avour.
The lter is for use only with municipally
treated tap water or well water that is
regularly tested for contaminants; it is not
intended to remove contaminants in water
that is not suitable for drinking.
IMPORTANT: Every time you install a new
water filter, run the Coffee Maker through
a complete brew cycle without coffee.
Use a full carafe of clean, cool water.
Place the charcoal filter in a
container filled with fresh, cool
water. The charcoal filter should
remain submerged in the water
1
for 10 minutes. Rinse the charcoal
filter under running water for
5 seconds after soaking.
Put the charcoal filter into the filter
2
assembly. Snap to close.

CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE COFFEE MAKER
Calcium deposits (scale) from water will build up in the Coffee Maker over time and
impair brewing efciency and coffee quality. If you notice that it takes longer than
usual to brew or that the Coffee Maker is making unusual noises, then it is time
to descale. The Clean indicator will ash when the Coffee Maker has completed
100 brew cycles. Descaling should be done as soon as possible to preserve the
performance and life of your Coffee Maker.
NOTE: The Coffee Maker can be
descaled using a vinegar and water
solution or by using a packaged
descaling agent. Always mix the
descaling solution using cool water.
When using vinegar, fill the carafe
with a solution consisting of 1/2 vinegar
and 1/2 water.
When using a descaling agent, follow
the directions on the package for
the recommended ratios of descaling
agent and water to use.
The Coffee Maker should be run
through a complete Clean cycle using
a full tank of the descaling solution.
Before descaling, always remove
the water filter (see the “Installing
the water filter” section) and make
1
sure the filter basket contains no
coffee or coffee filters.
