Decalcifying your MR. COFFEE® Iced Tea Maker  
Mineral (calcium/limestone) found in the water will leave deposits into your iced tea  
maker and will affect its performance. If you notice an increase in steaming or if the  
pumping action stops before all of the water has been pumped out of the  
appliance, it’s time to clean it. The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness  
(mineral content) of your tap water. Please see the following chart:

CLEAN YOUR ICED TEA MAKER BEFORE USING THE FIRST TIME  
Make sure your first glass of iced tea or iced coffee is as good as can be by  
cleaning your MR. COFFEE® Iced Tea Maker before using it for the first time.

until you have poured water in the reservoir, the lid is closed  
and the pitcher is in its place.  
1. Remove brew basket by moving the rotating shower head.  
2. Wash the pitcher, pitcher lid and brew basket in a mixture of mild detergent  
and water. Rinse each thoroughly.  
3. Fill the pitcher with water to the top water level mark. Lift the reservoir lid  
on the iced tea maker and pour the water into the water reservoir. Do not  
overfill. Insert the brew basket in its place.

4. Rotate the shower head back to its proper position over the brew basket.  
Close the water reservoir lid.  
BREWING ICED TEA OR ICED COFFEE  
1. Fill the pitcher with fresh, cold water to the  
desired water level capacity (1, 2 or 3 quarts). Do  
not overfill.  
5. Place the pitcher lid on the pitcher. Open the pitcher spout cover. Slide the  
pitcher towards the iced tea maker with the pitcher spout fitting just under  
the Steep Control.  
2. Lift the water reservoir lid, rotate the shower head  
out of the way and remove the brew basket. Pour  
water into the water reservoir.  
6. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet and push the “on” button.  
7. When the cycle is complete, your iced tea maker will shut off automatically.  
3. Place the brew basket back in its place, inserting  
an 8-12 cup MR. COFFEE® paper filter into the  
brew basket. Add the desired amount of tea or  
coffee (see the Measurement Chart). You may now  
add sugar, lemon or other flavorings to the brew  
basket to suit your taste.  
8. Slide the pitcher away from the iced tea maker and discard the water in the  
pitcher.  
NOTE: Plugging the iced tea maker into an electrical outlet may trigger the  
brewing cycle since the “on” button may have inadvertently been  
pushed. Also, if you wish to turn the iced tea maker off during the  
brewing cycle, just grasp the molded plug and unplug the power  
cord.  
4. Rotate the shower head back into position so that  
it is now over the brew basket. Close the water  
reservoir lid.  
Your iced tea maker is now ready to use. Enjoy it!  
5. Adjust the steeping lever to your desired brewing  
strength. The farther the lever is to the right, the  
stronger the tea.  
6. Fill the pitcher with ice cubes to the desired ice  
level marked on the pitcher. Replace the pitcher  
lid with the lid spout cover in the open position.  
If you are low on ice, you may substitute cold  
water, refilling the pitcher to the desired 1, 2 or 3  
quart WATER level – DO NOT fill to the ICE level as  
this will cause an overflow when the tea or coffee  
brews.  
7. Slide the pitcher towards the iced tea maker with  
the pitcher spout open and fitting just under the  
Steep Control, flush against the appliance.  
NOTE: If the pitcher and its lid are not pushed snugly  
against the iced tea maker, hot water and hot  
steam could escape and cause injury.  
8. Turn the iced tea maker on by plugging the power  
cord into an electrical outlet and pushing the “on”  
button firmly until the ON indicator light is  
illuminated.
