Problem With Clean Indicator On The Kcm111ob 12cup Coffee Maker
The clean indicator light won't go out. Manual says to press Mode button, I do that, but it immediately takes me to adjusting clock, and the various other settings that occur before Clean mode. Coffee maker has been cleaned, descaled, etc. I just can't get the Clean indicator to go away, as instructed by Manual. I have even unplugged it from power source in hopes it would reset.
Suggestions, advice, something?
