Help fuI Heaisny-ts
1. Use more or less tea to suit your taste. Additional tea bags may be
needed when using herbal tea.
2. Tea may turn cloudy as it chills due to the tannic acids found in tea.
Higher quality teas will contain more tannic acids than others.
Using less tea will reduce the cloudiness.
3. For extra flavor, try adding several bags of herbal or flavored tea to your
brew.
Da ily Care
1. To maintain the quality of all parts and minimize tea stains, we recom-
mend washing the pitcher and lid with warm water and mild
after every brew cycle.THESE ITEMS ARE NOT DISH-
rom electrical outlet. Wipe exterior with a soft,
damp, soapy cloth, rinse well, then dry with a soft towel. Using a separate
container, pour approximately one cup of water into the brew basket-
tilt the brewer back and forth and drain over a sink. DO NOT IMMERSE
OR RINSE BREWER UNDER FAUCET OR IN WATER. DO NOT use abra-
sive cleaners or metal scouring
pads. DO NOT CLEAN UNDER SHIELD
(PLASTIC GRATE) IN BREWER.
Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the
brewer. Tea discolors these deposits. To remove, follow
in the “Deliming” section, on page 9.

Deliming
The Iced Tea
must be delimed when you begin to notice an increase in
heating time of the water in the brewer. This condition may be caused by a
buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of the water used. The
following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVAL
Type of Water
Soft Water
Cleaning Frequency
every 60 brew cycles
every 30 brew cycles
Hard Water
Your Iced Tea
may be cleaned using MR. COFFEE CLEANER or
a
mix-
ture of vinegar and water. For best results use MR. COFFEE CLEANER. It is
superior to vinegar and has no unpleasant odor. You may order MR. COFFEE
CLEANER by calling 1-80O-MR COFFEE (l-800-672-6333).

pitcher approximately 32 ounces.
1.
2. Empty contents of one packet of MR. COFFEE CLEANER into the pitch-
er and stir with
a
plastic spoon until the cleaner Is completely dissolved.
This will make a clear blue solution.
3. Pour the blue solution onto the brewer. Let sit for 15 minutes. Place the
brewer, with lid, into the pitcher. Make sure the brewer, lid and pitcher fit
together snugly.
4. Follow steps 4-6 under “Cleaning Your Iced Tea Pot Before First
Use”, on page 6.
Thoroughly rinse the pitcher, brewer and lid.
5.
6. Repeat steps l-5
with clean water only (no

7. If a normal brewing time is not achieved and tea stains remain, repeat
steps l-6.
Using Vinegar
1. Unplug the machine before cleaning.
2. Add a mixture of half water and half white distilled vinegar (16 fluid
ounces of each) to the brewer. Do not turn the unit on. Let sit for 30
minutes or longer until the deposits are removed, or repeat process until
the deposits are removed. DO NOT HEAT THE VINEGAR MIXTURE.
Pour out and discard the vinegar mixture.
3. Run one or two brew cycles using only fresh water to remove any
residual vinegar mixture.
