Care and Cleaning
Cleaning the Coffee Maker
1. Remove the brew basket and carafe
from the Coffee Maker.
2. Wash the brew basket and gold tone
permanent filter in hot, soapy water
and rinse with hot water. Do not use
abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
These parts can also be washed in the
upper rack of a dishwasher.
3. Unplug the Coffee Maker and wipe
the housing with a warm, soapy cloth.
Then wipe clean with a damp cloth
and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use
abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
Descaling the Coffee Maker
The Coffee Maker can be descaled using
a packaged descaling agent or vinegar.
Always mix the descaling solution using
cool water.
• When using a descaling agent, follow
the directions on the package for the
recommended amounts of descaling
agent and water to use.
• When using vinegar, fill the carafe with
a solution consisting of
1
⁄2 vinegar and
1
⁄2 water.
Descaling Steps:
1. Before descaling, always remove the
water filter (see “Installing the Ion-
Exchange Water Filter” on page 7) and
make sure the brew basket contains
no coffee or coffee filters.
2. Run the Coffee Maker through a
complete brewing cycle using a full
carafe of the descaling solution.
3. If the cleaning needed indicator lights
after the brewing cycle is complete,
repeat Step 2 using fresh descaling
solution. Keep repeating Step 2 until
the cleaning needed indicator no
longer lights after brewing.
4. Rinse the Coffee Maker by running
it through two brewing cycles using a
full carafe of fresh, cool water
each time.
5. Wash the brew basket in hot, soapy
water and rinse with hot water. This
part can also be washed in the upper
rack of the dishwasher.
6. Reinstall or replace the water filter.
Replace the filter every three months
under normal usage, or more often
with heavy use.
