Maintenance
- Cleaning the Drip Tray: The drip tray can accumulate drips and spills. It is removable and top-rack dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Simply slide it out, empty, and wash.
- Energy Saving Auto-Off: The brewer is designed to automatically turn off 2 hours after the last brew to save energy.
- Descaling: Over time, calcium deposits (scale) can build up in your brewer. Descaling is an important process that removes these deposits. Refer to the Keurig website or your local retailer for recommended descaling solutions and instructions. Regular descaling helps maintain brewer performance and beverage quality.
