USING THE OPTIONAL
KITCHENAID™ GOLD TONE
PERMANENT FILTER
The Gold Tone Permanent Filter is
designed for easy installation in the
Filter Holder. Do not use a paper filter
with the Gold Tone Permanent Filter.
1. Insert the Gold Tone Permanent
Filter into the bottom of the Filter
Holder.
2. Use the desired amount of a medium
to coarse grind coffee; a very fine
grind may clog the filter. Place the
ground coffee in the center of the
filter to ensure complete wetting and
to help prevent overflowing.
3. After each use, rinse the filter under
running water.
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR GOLD
TONE PERMANENT FILTER
After several uses, clean the filter with
a soft brush or sponge. Avoid using
abrasive cleansers or steel wool pads,
which could damage the filter screen.
The filter can also be cleaned in the top
rack of the dishwasher.
Care and Cleaning

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR
COFFEE MAKER
1. Unplug the coffee maker.
2. Removable parts (Brew Basket and
Glass Carafe and Lid) can be washed
in hot, soapy water and rinsed with
hot water. To clean other parts, wipe
with a damp cloth. Removable parts
can also be washed in the upper rack
of the dishwasher. DO NOT use a
scouring pad or other abrasives to
clean the interior of the Carafe.
HOW TO REMOVE CALCIUM
BUILDUP FROM YOUR COFFEE
MAKER
Calcium deposits from water can build
up in your KitchenAid
and should be removed to maintain
brewing efficiency and coffee quality.
As a rule of thumb, calcium buildup
should be removed every three months.
Local water conditions or use of the
coffee maker more than once a day may
require more frequent descaling. If
End-of-Brewing/Decalcification Signal
is turned on, a tone sounds during
brewing and water remains in the Water
Tank, indicating it's time to descale
your coffee maker.
1. Remove the Unique Charcoal Filter
and, if used, the Gold Tone
Permanent Filter from the coffee
maker. DO NOT put a paper filter or
ground coffee in the Brew Basket.
2. Use a descaling agent or vinegar to
remove calcium deposits.
