CARE & CLEANING
Ensure the Tea Maker is turned OFF by
pressing the TEA|Cancel button (when
brewing tea) or the HOT WATER|Cancel
button (when heating water) on the Power
Base. The Tea Maker is OFF when the button
surround illumination goes out. Remove the
power plug from the wall outlet. Allow all
parts of the Tea Maker to cool completely
before disassembling and cleaning.
NOTE
Only the Jug Lid, Tea Basket, Tea
Basket Lid and Tea Scoop are
dishwasher safe.
WARNING
Never immerse the base of the glass
jug, power base, power cord or power
plug in water or allow moisture to
come in contact with these parts.
Cleaning the Jug Lid and integrated
scale filter
1. Wash the Jug Lid in warm soapy
water with a soft sponge, rinse and dry
thoroughly. The integrated scale filter
can be cleaned by placing under running
hot water and rubbing with a cleaning
cloth or brush.
2. Alternatively, the Jug Lid is dishwasher
safe. Position the Jug Lid vertically so
the scale filter is facing upwards. This
will allow water to drain properly.
3. Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior
to using.
Cleaning the Glass Jug
1. After each use, empty the Glass Jug. Do
not allow brewed tea to stand overnight.
2. Wipe the interior of the Glass Jug
with a soft damp sponge or rinse with
warm water. Tea deposits will enhance
the flavor of the brewed tea, so if only
using as a Tea Maker do not wash with
soapy water.
3. Wipe the exterior of the Glass Jug with a
soft damp cloth to clean.
WARNING
Never immerse or wash exterior of
glass jug under running water.
NOTE
Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or
abrasive cleaners to clean the inside
or outside of the Glass Jug as these
may scratch the surface.
4. To remove the build-up of tannin, the
astringent chemical constituent of tea,
fill the Glass Jug with water up to the
water maximum mark (1500mL WATER
MAX) and either:
a) Add the juice of one lemon, as well as
the lemon and boil. Allow to cool. For
best results, leave to soak overnight.
Discard the solution then scrub with a
soft bristled brush (non metallic). Fill
the Glass Jug with clean water, boil, then
discard the water. Repeat if necessary.
b) Add 2 tablespoons of baking soda and
boil. Allow to cool. For best results, leave
to soak overnight. Discard the solution
then scrub with a soft bristled brush
(non metallic). Fill the Glass Jug with
clean water, boil, then discard the water.
Repeat if necessary.
