CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Always turn coffeemaker off and remove the plug
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
Lift up the coffeemaker lid. Remove and discard
the paper filter and ground coffee. The filter
basket can be washed in warm, soapy water and
rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of
the dishwasher. Dry all parts after cleaning.
Do not put any water in the unit once the filter
basket has been removed. Wipe the area under
the filter basket with a damp cloth.
Remove the carafe from the heating plate.
Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and lid
can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed
thoroughly, or placed in a dishwasher. The carafe
and carafe lid should be placed on the upper
rack only.
Do not use any scouring agents or harsh
cleansers on any part of the coffeemaker.
Never immerse base unit in water or other liquids.
To clean base, simply wipe with a clean, damp
cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints and
other blemishes on the housing can be washed
off with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning
solution. Wipe heating plate with a clean, damp
cloth. Never use rough, abrasive materials or
cleansers to clean the heating plate. Do not dry
the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as
lint may remain.
MAINTENANCE
Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
DECALCIFICATION
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium
deposits that form over time on the metal parts of
your coffeemaker. The mineral content of the tap
water in your area and the frequency of use
affects the rate of the calcium buildup, which can
affect the functioning of your coffeemaker and the
flavor of your coffee.
For best performance from your Brew Central
®
coffeemaker, we recommend cleaning it whenever
the red CLEAN LED indicator lights up.
NOTE:
Before decalcifying your unit, remove the
charcoal water filter from the water reservoir.
To clean:
1. Fill the water reservoir to capacity with a
mixture of ¹/³ white vinegar and ²/³ water.
2. Press and hold the CLEAN button. When the
CLEAN LED indicator flashes, the coffeemaker
is in Clean mode. Release the button.
3. When the cycle is completed, 5 beeps will
sound and the coffeemaker will shut off.
4. If the CLEAN indicator illuminates once more,
repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh
solution of vinegar and water.
NOTE:
One
cleaning cycle is usually sufficient.
5. When the CLEAN indicator remains off, run
one cycle with a full reservoir of fresh, cold
water to rinse the unit.
6. Return the charcoal water filter to the holder
inside the water reservoir and your
coffeemaker is ready to brew!
BREW PAUSE
™
FEATURE
This feature interrupts the flow of coffee
from the basket to let you pour that first cup
mid-brew. Because the flavor profile of
coffee brewed at the start of a cycle differs
from that brewed toward the end, be aware
that using this feature will weaken the flavor
strength of the finished pot.
NOTE:
Removing carafe for more than
20 seconds during brew cycle may cause
filter basket to overflow.
