###### SECTION 5 Cleaning & Maintenance (continued)

######## Cleaning the Cold Water Reservoir

it is normal over time for discoloration, spotting or staining to appear in the Cold Water Reservoir. Results will vary depending on the mineral content of the bottled or filtered water used but will not affect the operation of the brewer. However, be sure to clean the Cold Water Reservoir regularly to minimize build-up.

To access the Cold Water Reservoir, lift the lid. Remove the Water Level Guide (fig. 6) and then clean inside the reservoir with a damp, lint-free cloth as necessary (fig. 7).

Replace the Water Level Guide and lower the lid when finished.

The Water Level Guide is not dishwasher safe.

######## Emptying the Internal Hot Water Tank

Brewer must be powered off but plugged in.

There will be a 3 to 5 second delay before water begins to dispense.

######## De-Scaling Your Brewer

Calcium deposits may build up in your brewer, depending on the mineral content of your water. Scale is non-toxic but if left unattended, it can hinder brewer performance. De-scaling your brewer helps to maintain the heating element and other internal parts of the brewer.

The de-scaling process should be done every 3 to 6 months to ensure optimal performance or when there are white deposits in the Cold Water Reservoir. However, it is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often.

To begin, you will need the following:

######## Storage

Empty the Internal Hot Water Tank and Cold Water Reservoir before storing. See page 14. Store your brewer in a safe, frost-free environment in an upright position.

Storing the brewer in cold temperatures may cause any residual condensation to freeze inside the brewer and could cause damage.

Before using your brewer after storage, wipe the Cold Water Reservoir with a damp, lint-free cloth and run three (3) cleaning brews (without K-Cup® packs). See page 8 for initial cleansing brew process.

Let brewer rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours before powering on.

######## Storing the Power Cord

Behind the brewer is a convenient compartment to hold the Power Cord during transport or storage (fig. 8).
