CLEANING AND STORAGE
This appliance requires little maintenance. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
open or remove the bottom cover of unit. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not
attempt to repair it yourself. Any servicing that requires disassembly, other than cleaning,
must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
TO CLEAN:
At least once a month, fill the ceramic mug half way with white vinegar and then top with
cold water and pour into the water reservoir. Place the ceramic mug on the drip tray. Turn
the power switch to the ON position to start the brew cycle. Allow all of the solution to
drip into the ceramic mug. Repeat the process using a new solution; do not re-use the
first solution. Allow the unit to cool for 10 min; then rinse unit by running another cycle
with cool water only. You may have to run another rinse cycle to remove any remaining
vinegar taste. Turn unit OFF and discard water. Wash and dry ceramic mug, permanent
filter and filter basket. When unit has cooled, wipe with a dry cloth.
The ceramic mug, permanent filter, filter basket and drip tray may be washed in warm,
soapy water or on the top rack of dishwasher. Never use abrasive scouring pads or
cleanser. Never immerse unit in water or any other liquid.
TO STORE:
Unplug unit; store in its box in a clean, dry place. Never store it while it is hot or still
plugged in. Never wrap cord tightly around the appliance. Do not put any stress on
the cord where it enters the unit, as it could cause the cord to fray and break.
