caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water. If the  
pumpmg action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the  
machine. then the appliance requires cleaning.  
The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness of water used. The fol-  
lowing table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.

Decanter Cleaning  
Hard water can leave a  
mineral deposit inside the decanter. Coffee  
and tea discolor these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside  
the decanter. To remove these stains, follow these simple steps:  
1. Use a hot white vinegar solution and let soak.  
2. Let it stand for about 20 minutes and then discard.  
3. Wash and rinse the decanter thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use  
harsh abrasive cleaners. These will cause scratches which can lead  
to breakage.  
Helpful Hints  
The use of chemically softened water can inhibit proper filtration. This will  
affect the beverage flavor and will cause a long drip time from the brewing  
funnel. Avoid using chemically softened water.
