Mineral Deposits / Decalcifying
Minerals found in water, such as calcium and limstone, will leave deposits
in your appliance and affect its performance. To keep your unit operating
efficiently, it is recommended that you regularly remove these deposits.
The frequency is dependent upon whether you are using
hard or soft water, and how often you brew.
Suggested Decalcifying Interval
• Soft water.............Every 80 Brew Cycles
• Hard Water...........Every 40 Brew Cycles
1. Using a store-bought descaler, fill the Water Reservoir to the MAX level with a
solution of water and descaler in accordance with the descaler instructions.
2. Place the Filter Basket (without tea, coffee, fruit or other ingredients) into the Flavor
Extraction Chamber, close the Top Cover, and place the Pitcher onto the Drip Tray.
3. Press the Power Button. The Indicator Light will illuminate and begin the brewing cycle.
4. When finished brewing, unplug the unit.

solution. Repeat steps 1-4 one more time.
