1. WARNING: Keep all plastic bags away from children.
2. CAUTION: Keurig® recommends using only Keurig® My K-Cup® Universal Reusable Coffee Filters and Keurig® approved K-Cup® pods in this appliance. If the pod does not fit, do not force the pod into the appliance. The use of non-Keurig® pods or accessories may cause brewer malfunction or injury.
3. WARNING: Used K-Cup® pods should be removed from the pod holder, or in part with the daily cleaning routine.
4. WARNING: There is extremely hot water under pressure in the K-Cup® pod holder during the brew process. To avoid risk of injury do not lift the handle or otherwise open the handle during the brew process.
5. CAUTION: There are sharp needles that puncture the K-Cup® pod; one above the K-Cup® pod holder, and the other in the bottom of the K-Cup® pod holder. To avoid risk of injury, be aware of the needle locations.
6. POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
   • A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
   • Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
   • If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
   • The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
   • If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding type 3-wire cord.
   • The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
7. CAUTION: HOT COCOA/OTHER NON-COFFEE PODS: Immediately after using a hot cocoa/other non-coffee pod, run a hot water brew cycle without a pod to avoid the possibility of clogging the exit needle. DO NOT assume the next user will do this.

Brewer Features

• BREW OVER ICE: For iced beverages fill a large plastic tumbler with ice (do not use glass). Insert any K-Cup® pod, then press the BREW OVER ICE button, followed by BREW button. A boz beverage will be dispensed that starts brewing hotter to help extract full flavor, then cools down for less ice melt and a vibrant balanced flavor.
• FAST & FRESH-BREWED: Coffee made in minutes. BACK-TO-BACK BREWING: Immediately brew a second cup, no need to wait for reheating.
• TRAVEL MUG FRIENDLY: Accommodates travel mugs up to 7″ tall.
• MAINTENANCE ALERT: Reminds you to descale after every 250 brews.
• AUTO OFF: Automatically turns your brewer off 5 minutes after the last brew for energy savings.
• HIGH ALTITUDE: To ensure your brewer works properly at higher altitudes (5,000 feet), enable the High Altitude setting by pressing and holding the BREW button and 8oz buttons for 3 seconds.

Caring for your Brewer

For great-tasting coffee, keep your brewer running at peak performance by following the recommended maintenance schedule:

*To turn off Descale notification, follow the full descaling procedure as outlined in this guide
If the brewer has been in storage, or hasn’t been used in days, run a cleansing brew before brewing your beverage.
Periodically hand-wash the water reservoir and lid and drip tray with warm soapy water and rinse clean. Do not use any vinegar-based cleaning products to clean the outside of your brewer.

CAUTION: Parts are not dishwasher safe.

NOTE: Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth as lint may remain.
For further detailed instructions, videos, and the full Use & Care Guide visit Support.Keurig.com.

Descaling Procedure

Before you begin, you will need a large ceramic mug, fresh water, Keurig® Descaling Solution, and access to a sink. Do not use a paper cup. Ensure that there is no beverage pod in the K-Cup® pod holder. Please allow approximately 15-20 minutes for the descaling procedure.

STEP 1: Descaling Solution Rinse
Pour the entire bottle of Keurig® Descale Solution into an emptied water reservoir. Then, fill the empty bottle with water and pour into the water reservoir. Do not insert a K-Cup® pod.
Place a large mug on the drip tray. To activate Descale Mode, begin with the brewer powered off by pressing and holding BREW OVER ICE button, then press and hold the 8oz and 12oz buttons together for 3 seconds until the DESCALE light turns solid.
When BREW button begins flashing, press the BREW button to start the cleansing rinse brew. Pour the hot liquid into the sink. Repeat the cleansing rinse process until the ADD WATER light illuminates.

STEP 2: Rest & Rinse
Empty the water reservoir and refill to the MAX fill line with fresh water.

STEP 3: Fresh Water Rinse
Press the BREW button once it begins flashing. Repeat this process until the ADD WATER light illuminates. The brewer will now exit Descale Mode and will be ready for use!

NOTE: The cleaning action of Keurig® Descaling Solution may result in a “foam” dispensed from the brewer. This is natural, as the solution is reacting with the scale inside. For a brewer that is heavily scaled, the brewer may not fill properly after the descaler is added. If this occurs, you may see only a small or no output dispensed, followed by the sound of air blowing out. If this occurs:

• Turn off and unplug the brewer.
• If there is Keurig® Descaling Solution in the water reservoir, discard the contents, rinse the water reservoir thoroughly and refill with water
• Plug the brewer back in, power on, and repeat the Step 3 Fresh Water Rinse cycle. The brewer should begin to function normally as the solution is rinsed out and the scale is removed. If problem persists, allow brewer to sit unplugged for at least 30 minutes before continuing with the rinse.
