De-Scaling your Brewer

Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your Brewer. Though scale is non-toxic, it can hinder Brewer performance. De-scaling your Brewer will help maintain the heating element and other Brewer parts that come in contact with water. For optimal performance, de-scale your Brewer every 3 to 6 months. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often. This Brewer is equipped with sensors to detect when scale buildup is interfering with the performance of the Brewer. When this is detected, DE-SCALE will be displayed on the control panel (see figure 30), at which point you should promptly de-scale. However, even if DE-SCALE is not displayed, it is still advisable that you de-scale your Brewer regularly. figure 30 Note: Though the Brewer will continue to function even when DE-SCALE is displayed, not de-scaling at that point could damage the Brewer. If this occurs, DE-SCALE will begin to flash on the control panel to alert you to potential damage if you do not de-scale immediately. 20 Follow these steps to de-scale your unit: 1. Empty the reservoir. 2. Disable the AUTO OFF and OFF TIME features. 3. Making sure there is no K-Cup in the brewing chamber, fill the reservoir with 60 oz. of undiluted white vinegar. 4. Place a large mug on the drip tray and run a Hot Water cycle. Select the 12 oz. brew size. Discard contents of mug. 5. Repeat the hot water process until ADD WATER is displayed on the control panel and the reservoir lights will flash. 6. Let the Brewer stand for at least four hours while still on. 7. Rinse the water reservoir thoroughly and fill with fresh water. 8. Run another Hot Water cycle. Discard contents of large mug. 9. Repeat hot water process until ADD WATER is displayed on the control panel and the reservoir lights will flash. 10. You may need to perform additional Hot Water cycles if you detect any residual vinegar taste. Note: If DE-SCALE is still displayed on the control panel after completing the procedure, repeat the de-scaling procedure above. Table of Contents Previous Page Next Page
