WARNING: Disconnect electrical power before removing access panels!
CAUTION: This procedure involves working with hot water and hot surfaces!
1. Unplug the power cord and shut off the water line.
2. Remove the top cover of the unit. Locate the top of the tank and remove the cover.
3. Drain the tank to a level about 3” below the tip of the probe.
4. Allow some time for the probe to cool before working on the brewer.
5. Clean the tip of the probe using a Scotch-BriteTM scuff pad.
6. If a residual white layer is still visible on the probe, remove the probe and soak it in vinegar or a scale removing chemical. Repeat this step
until the white layer is removed.
A daily routine of cleaning the GEM3IF Satellite will maintain the appearance of the unit and ensure great tasting cof-
fee. To clean the Satellite components, prepare a mild solution of detergent and warm water.
CAUTION – Do not use cleansers, liquids containing bleach, powders or any other substance containing chlo-
rine. These products promote corrosion and will pit the stainless steel. USE OF THESE PRODUCTS WILL
VOID THE WARRANTY.
