Hints and tips
How much water?
If you are unsure how much water your cups hold, use them to calibrate your water jug:
1. Fill up the cup you intend to use with water (don’t forget to make an allowance to
the water if you are going to add milk). Pour this water into the water jug and make
a note of the level.
2. If you’re going to use two cups, pour the second cup of water into the water jug and
make a note of the water level. If the 2 CUPS MAX marking is exceeded, the cups
you have chosen are probably too big for your Wake Cup. Never add more water
than the 2 CUPS MAX marking.
3. Now you know how much water to put in the water jug whenever you use these
cups.
Fresh cool milk
Don’t forget to use the supplied vacuum ask to keep your milk fresh and cool ready for
your early morning Wake Cup.
No messing about
Don’t forget you can use the pull out tray to hold any used tea bags, dirty spoons etc.

14
Descaling your Wake Cup
To maintain it’s performance, your Wake Cup will require descaling once every three
months or so. You may need to descale your Wake Cup more frequently if you live in a
hard water area.
1. Remove the water jug and ll it with cold water to the 2 CUPS MAX mark. Add a
citric acid based proprietary descaling product to the water and stir.
2. Remove the water tank cap by giving it a quarter turn anticlockwise. Carefully pour
the water from the water jug into the water tank. Ret the water tank cap by giving
it a quarter turn clockwise. Make sure that the water tank cap is correctly and
securelytted.
3. Place two suitable cups (not supplied) below the dispensing nozzles making sure
that each cup is positioned directly below a dispensing nozzle. Make sure that the
two cups are capable of holding all of the water used at step 1.
4. Press and hold the dispensing button until it turns red. Your Wake Cup will start to
boil the water.
5. When the water reaches boiling point, it will be dispensed into the cups below the
dispensing nozzles. Carefully discard this water.
6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 twice more this time without adding a descaling solution. This
will ush out your Wake Cup removing any descaling solution.
Descaling and Cleaning
Always switch off and unplug your Wake Cup and allow it to completely cool
before cleaning. Never immerse the unit, power cord or plug in water or any
other liquid. Do not use harsh abrasives, chemicals or oven cleaners.
Cleaning
• Clean the exterior surface of your Wake Cup with a damp cloth and then polish it
with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use steel wool pads or harsh/abrasive cleaners.
• Wash the water jug with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Use warm water and washing-up liquid to clean your vacuum ask after use. Rinse
thoroughly with hot water. Do not immerse in water. Dry thoroughly after leaving it
to drain. Store with the stopper off. Do not put your vacuum ask in a dishwasher
• To remove difcult stains or odour ll your ask with hot water, add one teaspoon
of bicarbonate of soda and secure the cap. Soaking overnight produces excellent
results. Always rinse your ask before reusing it.

16
Memory back-up battery
In the event of a power cut, or if you need to unplug your Wake-Up for any reason,
the display will switch off and the clock time will be lost. By using the memory back-up
battery the clock time will be saved and will re-appear on the display once power is
restored or the unit is plugged back in.
Insert an AA-size battery (not supplied) into the battery compartment located
underneath your Wake Cup. Observe the correct polarity when inserting the battery.
Your Wake Cup will still operate with or without the memory back-up battery tted.
