Cleaning Instructions
Your coffeemaker must be cleaned when you begin to notice excessive
steaming or the brewing time increases considerably. This condition is
caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water. If the
pumping action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the
machine, then the appliance requires cleaning.
The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness of water used. The following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVAL

Soft Water every 80 brew cycles
