cleaning the caRafe
Carafe and lid are top-rack dishwasher safe. Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the carafe. Coffee and tea discolor
these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside the carafe. To remove these stains, follow these easy steps.
1. Use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and hot water.
2. Let solution stand in carafe for about 20 minutes. Discard.
3. Wash and rinse carafe thoroughly using soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. These may cause scratches and can lead to
breakage.
