Descaling your BrewerYou should descale your brewer every 3-6 months. Properlyfollow the descaling procedure.Depending on the mineral content of your water, calciumdeposits or scale may build up in your brewer. Scale is nontoxic but if left unattended can hinder brewer performance.Regularly descaling your brewer every 3-6 months helpsmaintain the heating element, and other internal parts thatcome in contact with water. Calcium deposits may build upfaster, making it necessary to descale more often.Descaling ProcedureBefore you begin, you will need a large ceramic mug, freshwater, Keurig Descaling Solution, and access to a sink.Do not use a paper cup. Ensure that there is no beveragepod in the K-Cup pod holder. Please allow approximately45 minutes for the descaling procedure.Empty the water from the water reservoir. If using a Keurig Water Filter, remove and set aside.STEP 1: Descaling Solution RinseSTEP 2: Descaling Rinse & RepeatRepeat the rinsing brew process until the add water light isilluminated.

Let the brewer standfor at least 30 minutes while still on.After 30 minutes, discard any residual solution from thewater reservoir and rinse thoroughly.STEP 3: Fresh Water RinseFill the water reservoir with fresh water to and not beyondthe MAX fill line.Place a large mug on the drip tray and run a rinsing brewusing the largest brew size. Do not use a K-Cup pod. Pourthe contents of the mug into the sink.Repeat brew process until you have completed at least 12rinsing brews using the largest brew size. You may need torefill the water reservoir at least one time during this process.NOTE: The cleaning action of Keurig Descaling Solution may result in a “foam” dispensed from the brewer. Thisis natural, as the solution is reacting with the scale inside. For a brewer that is heavily scaled, the brewer may notfill properly after the descaler is added. If this occurs, you may see only a small or no output dispensed, followedby the sound of air blowing out. If this occurs: Turn off and unplug the brewer.Press the power button to power the brewer off. If there is Keurig Descaling Solution in the water reservoir, discard the contents, rinse the water reservoirthoroughly and refill with water.Pour the entire bottle of Keurig Descaling Solution intoan emptied water reservoir. Then fill the empty bottle withwater and pour into the water reservoir. Press the powerbutton to turn the brewer back on. Plug the brewer back in, power on, and repeat the Step 3 Fresh Water Rinse cycle. The brewer should begin tofunction normally as the solution is rinsed out and the scale is removed.
