I was having the same issue with my KitchenAid 10/12. The problem was resolved by unplugging the machine, completely removing the water reservoir and carafe, whiping all of the machine's surfaces down (inside and out) with a clean cloth. After I did that and plugged the coffee machine back in, the clean indicator light was not on anymore. Good luck.
