CLEANING AND MAINTAINING YOUR COFFEE MAKER
Daily Cleaning
Always unplug the coffee maker and allow it to cool before cleaning.
Remove the filter basket, permanent filter, glass decanter/ thermal carafe and glass
decanter/ thermal carafe 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 safe parts: glass decanter (model 4401 only) and lid, filter basket and permanent
filter.
CAUTION! Never immerse the coffee maker itself in water, in any other liquid or place
in the dishwasher.
Regular Cleaning and Maintenance
Decalcifying your Oster® coffee maker minerals (calcium/
limestone) found in water will leave deposits in your coffee
maker and affect its performance. It's recommended that you
regularly remove these deposits using vinegar.
1. Prepare a solution using 1 L of undiluted white household
vinegar may be used to clean.
2. Pour the vinegar into the water reservoir.
3. Place an empty 10–12 cup basket-style paper filter or the permanent filter that
came with the unit into the filter basket and place the brew basket back in place.
4. Place the empty glass decanter/ thermal carafe back in the unit.
5. Press the select "Selec./Apag." button until the clean "Limpiar" indicator light turns
on (Figure 8). For your convenience the cleaning cycle is automatic. The entire
cycle will take 45–60 minutes to complete.
During the cleaning your coffee maker will:
a. Slow brew approx. 3 cups of cleaning solution.
b. Pause for 30 minutes (the clean "limpiar" light will remain on to alert you
that the process is active).
c. After 30 minutes, your coffee maker will brew the remainder of the
cleaning solution.
d. When complete, the clean "Limpiar" light will turn off and your coffee
maker will turn off.
6. Discard the cleaning solution and rinse the glass decanter/ thermal carafe
thoroughly with clean water.
7. Fill the water reservoir with clean, fresh water.
8. Place the empty glass decanter/ thermal carafe back on the coffee maker.
9. Remove and discard the paper filter used during the cleaning cycle. If the
permanent was used during cleaning, remove it and rinse it thoroughly before
replacing it in the filter basket.
10. Begin brewing and allow the full brew cycle to complete.
11. Repeat steps 5 through 9 one more time.
Your coffee maker is now clean and ready to brew the next pot of delicious,
hot coffee!
