Unplug the coffee maker and portable warming plate. 2. Remove the brew basket insert from the brew basket. 3. Wash the brew basket, brew basket insert, carafe, and carafe lid in hot, soapy water and rinse with hot water. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. These parts can also be washed in the upper rack of the dishwasher. 4. Wipe the coffee maker housing and portable warming plate with a clean damp cloth, and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. 28 Descaling Calcium deposits (“scale”) from water will build up in the coffee maker heat pump over time and impair brewing efficiency and coffee quality. With normal use, scale should be removed every three months or whenever the water filter icon appears on the brew timer display. Local water conditions, use of the coffee maker more than once a day, or use without a water filter may require more frequent descaling. The following conditions indicate an immediate need for descaling: • the presence of loud sounds during brewing • a brewing time greater than 10 minutes for 12 cups of coffee • the appearance of “E1” or “E2” on the brew timer display Mixing The Descaling Solution The coffee maker can be descaled using a packaged descaling agent or vinegar. • When using a descaling agent, follow the directions on the package for the recommended amounts of descaling agent and water to use. • When using vinegar, mix a solution of 6 cups vinegar and 6 cups water. Descaling Steps 1. Before descaling, always remove the water filter (see “Installing the Water Filter” on page 13) and make certain the brew basket contains no coffee or coffee filters. 2. Run the coffee maker through a complete brewing cycle using the descaling solution. If the coffee maker has not been descaled for an extended period, run it through a second brewing cycle using fresh descaling solution. 3. Rinse the coffee maker by running it through two brewing cycles using fresh, cool water. 4. Wash the brew basket, brew basket insert, carafe, and carafe lid in hot, soapy water and rinse with hot water. These parts can also be washed in the upper rack of the dishwasher. 5. Reinstall the water filter and reset the water filter icon if necessary (see page 23). Error Codes During Descaling If “E1” or “E2” error codes appear during descaling, unplug the coffee maker for 30 seconds to reset the display, then plug it back in and continue. If error codes continue to appear after cleaning, see the KitchenAid warranty and service section on page 34. CARE AND CLEANING Continued… 29 CARE AND CLEANING Storing the Coffee Maker Since the coffee maker retains a small amount of water after brewing, never use it in environments where the temperature drops below freezing (32°F or 0°C). If the coffee maker will not be used for a prolonged period, or if it will be stored at temperatures below freezing, empty all water from the unit. To empty, unplug the coffee maker, then remove the water guide cover, the water filter access cover, the water filter, and the brew basket. Hold the coffee maker over a sink, and repeatedly turn it upside down until all the water drains from the unit. Wipe the coffee maker dry, and store. When the coffee maker is taken out of storage, run it through a complete brewing cycle without coffee. Use a full carafe of clean, cool water. This rinses the water reservoir, heat pump, and showerhead. Cleaning the Optional Gold Tone Permanent Filter After several uses, clean the filter with a soft brush or sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleansers or steel wool pads. The filter can also be washed in the top rack of a dishwasher. 30 TROUBLESHOOTING AND ERROR CODES • If the brew timer display is not illuminated: Check to see if the coffee maker is plugged in. If it is, unplug the coffee maker, then plug it back in again. If the brew timer display remains dark, check the fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical circuit the coffee maker is connected to and make certain the circuit is closed. • If “E1” or “E2” appears on the brew timer display: The coffee maker needs to be descaled. Unplug the coffee maker for 30 seconds to reset the display, then plug it back in again. See “Descaling” on page 29. If error codes continue to appear after cleaning, see the KitchenAid warranty and service section on page 34. • If “E3” appears on the brew timer display: A button or switch is jammed. Unplug the coffee maker, press or turn each switch and button several times, then plug the coffee maker back in. (If the coffee maker has been stored or used in a cool environment, warm the unit to normal room temperature before doing thi...
