CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR COFFEEMAKER Daily Cleaning Always unplug the coffeemaker and allow to cool before cleaning. Remove the filter basket, permanent filter, decanter and decanter lid and wash them in a solution of hot water and mild liquid soap. Never use abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials. Dishwasher top rack safe parts: glass decanter, decanter lid, filter basket, and permanent filter. The water filter disk is not dishwasher safe. CAUTION! Never immerse the coffeemaker itself in water, in any other liquid or place in the dishwasher. Regular Cleaning and Maintenance Decalcifying your MR. COFFEE® Coffeemaker Note: If red clean indicator light turns on at any time during use, your coffeemaker needs to be decalcified. Minerals (calcium/limestone) found in water will leave deposits in your coffeemaker and affect its performance. It's recommended that you regularly remove these deposits using MR. COFFEE® Cleaner or vinegar. MR. COFFEE® Cleaner is available at many retail stores, by calling the MR. COFFEE® Consumer Service Department at 1-800-MR COFFEE (1-800-672-6333), or online at www.mrcoffee.com. 1. Follow package instructions to prepare one batch of MR. COFFEE® Cleaner. Pour the mixture into the water reservoir. Before decalcifying, remove the water filtration disk from the machine. NOTE: 4 cups or 20 fl. oz. of undiluted, white household vinegar may be used as a substitute for the cleaner. 2. Place an empty MR. COFFEE® 10-12 cup basket-style paper filter or MR. COFFEE® permanent filter into the filter basket and close the brew basket lid. 3. Place the empty decanter back onto the warming plate. 4. Press the CLEAN button until the red CLEAN indicator light turns on (Figure 15). For your convenience the cleaning cycle is automatic. The entire cycle will take 45-60 minutes to complete. During the cleaning your coffeemaker will: a. Slow brew approx. 3 cups of cleaning solution. b. Pause for 30 minutes (the CLEAN light will remain on to alert you that the process is active). c. After 30 minutes, your coffeemaker will brew the remainder of the cleaning solution. d. When complete, the CLEAN light will turn off and your coffeemaker will turn off. Follow Steps 5-10 above to thoroughly rinse out the coffeemaker. 16
