Improper cleaning of the coffeemaker, especially the heating unit well will affect 
performance of the coffeemaker, resulting in weak, lukewarm coffee and may even 
cause the coffeemaker to stop perking.  To keep your coffeemaker working properly, 
it is important to follow all cleaning instructions after each use. 
 
1. Unplug coffeemaker and allow to cool before cleaning. 
2. Clean basket, stem and cover in hot soapy water with a dishcloth, rinse and dry.  
Coffee stains on underside of cover or stem may be removed by scouring with a 
damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleanser. 
3. Clean inside of coffeemaker by filling with hot water until about one-third full.  Add 
small amount of liquid dishwasher detergent and wash with a dishcloth or sponge.  
Then clean the heating unit well (where stem fits) with a scouring pad, to remove 
coffee residue.  Twist pad inside heating unit well to clean thoroughly.  
IMPORTANT: If heating unit well is not kept clean, coffeemaker will not perform 
properly. 
4. After cleaning inside of coffeemaker, drain and rinse inside.  Clean faucet by 
letting clear water run through it into sink, while moving faucet handle up and 
down. Drain water from inside of coffeemaker and dry. 
5. Clean outside of coffeemaker with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.  Do not 
use abrasive metal scouring pads or cleansers on outside of coffeemaker as 
scratching will occur. 
DO NOT WASH COFFEEMAKER PARTS IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.

To Remove Mineral Deposits: If coffeemaker is used daily, a special cleaning 
every 2 weeks OR every week if used for heating water, is necessary.  Fill 
coffeemaker with 1 quart each of water and white distilled vinegar.  (If a white 
mineral buildup has formed on inside of coffeemaker, use an additional 2 cups of 
vinegar.)  Place stem and empty coffee basket in place, secure cover onto 
coffeemaker and plug in.  Allow coffeemaker to complete perking cycle, then let 
stand for 10 to 15 minutes.  Unplug and drain coffeemaker.  Allow to cool and follow 
general cleaning instructions. 
 
To Remove Discoloration: Inside of the coffeemaker can discolor when used for 
heating water, which is normal.  To remove/lighten discoloration, fill coffeemaker with 
water to the level of discoloration (at least to the 12 cup level, but not past maximum 
cup level).  Place stem and empty basket in place.  For every 12 cups of water 
added to coffeemaker, add 2 teaspoons cream of tartar to basket.  Secure cover 
onto coffeemaker, plug cord into coffemaker and then into outlet and allow 
coffeemaker to complete perk cycle.  Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes or until 
discoloration is lightened.  Unplug cord and drain coffeemaker.  Allow to cool and 
follow general cleaning instructions. 
 
Do not use baking soda to clean coffeemaker, as it will discolor inside metal. 
 
After frequent use, coffee residue may collect inside faucet.  To clean, unscrew top 
half of faucet.  Move a small brush up and down through faucet.  Insert brush 
through opening inside coffeemaker to clean faucet connection.  Rinse and replace 
top half of faucet.
