6. Maintenance

Daily Cleaning:

• Always unplug the coffee maker before cleaning.
• Remove and empty the K-cup holder or ground coffee filter basket after each use. Rinse them under running water.
• Remove and empty the drip tray. Wash it with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly.
• Wipe the exterior of the coffee maker with a damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

Self-Cleaning Function:

The coffee maker features a self-cleaning function to help prevent mineral buildup. It is recommended to use this function regularly, especially if you have hard water.

1. Ensure the brewing chamber is empty (no K-cup or ground coffee).
2. Fill the water reservoir with clean water up to the 14oz MAX line.
3. Place an empty mug or container on the drip tray.
4. Press and hold both the "CAPSULE" and "GROUND" buttons simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds until the indicator lights begin to blink. This initiates the self-cleaning cycle.
5. The coffee maker will run water through its system. Once the cycle is complete, the lights will stop blinking.
6. Discard the water from the mug/container.

Descaling (Deep Cleaning):

Over time, mineral deposits (scale) can build up in your coffee maker, affecting performance and coffee taste. Descale your coffee maker every 3-6 months, or more frequently if you notice slower brewing or reduced coffee temperature.

1. Prepare a descaling solution: Mix white vinegar and water in a 1:1 ratio. For example, use 7oz vinegar and 7oz water for a 14oz fill.
2. Pour the descaling solution into the water reservoir.
3. Place a large empty mug or container on the drip tray.
4. Run a full brew cycle by pressing either the "CAPSULE" or "GROUND" button. Discard the solution.
5. Repeat the brewing process with the remaining descaling solution if necessary, or let it sit for 30 minutes before running another cycle.
6. After descaling, run at least two full cycles with fresh, clean water to rinse out any remaining vinegar taste.
