I know nothing about these but just received mine and need to know how to clean it initially. Any help would be greatly appreciated:)

Denture cleaning tablets or a vinegar+water solution works for cleaning the bag.

I like the vinegar and water idea below. I use vinegar for all my cleaning... Except cleaning dishes in the dishwasher lol

I clean it with a soft cloth and dish soap. I run it through dishwadher about every third use. This has worked well for me.

When it was new I rinsed it with 50/50 water and vinegar to clean it the first time. I usually just put a little dish soap in it now "just a drop or two" fill it half full of water, shake it really good and rinse a few times.

I pulled my manual out and here are the cleaning directions.After using the device 5-6 times or 2-3 days, clean as follows:1. Unplug the power cord from the base of the unit and uncover.2. Pour out any remaining water from the "DRAIN SIDE" of the tank.3. Put 1 Tablespoon of citric acid in the water tank, add just under 100 ml of warm water.4. Leave water for 5 minutes, and then drain the solution from the "DRAIN SIDE" of the tank.5. Wipe with a soft cloth. Avoid Ultrasonic Vibration plate area, which can be gently cleaned with a cotton bud.Never use other acids, enzymes or detergents, as this may risk poisonous gas to be created or cause malfunction.

I would clean them with rubbing alcohol . Either wipe them down or let them soak in a big pot with an alcohol / water solution . I would have a cup connected to the actual pump and pump up the water/ alcohol solution to clean the gun portion of it. Hope this helps :)

No sometimes I let it soak just for a few minutes. I have tried to google on how to take care of these and there is not much info on them but love mine. I just rub the Kosher salt on it after I clean it. That is another thing that help take off if you rub that on there if there is a few particals left on there. Sorry not a lot of help.

I haven't used the coffee pot yet but I don't remember reading anything in the instructions about how to clean the jets. Could it be they are self cleaning?

you need to clean it. Mine did the same thing. Follow the instructions that came with the unit.if you don't have them anymore take the batteries out first, then put the unit in a throw away pan with a little unscented laundry detergent. Let it soak for about an hour and then use an old toothbrush to clean the bottom. Only put enough water in to cover the bottom part of the unit. Rinse it out thoroughly and let air dry. Put the battery back in and you're good to go.

Don't take i apart to clean it, just put hot water & soap in a pan/cup and blend it for a few seconds then rinse and dry (unplug to dry!!).

just rinse it well when you empty it, DONT wait. then when its time to wash, put about 4 inches of hot water in it and add a small squirt of dish soap. screw on the lid and shake hard for about 30 seconds. rinse well and done. no stains, no leftover smell. i've had my pair for over 3 years. i use them for iced tea and iced coffee year round.

You can open it up and clean it! I have done several. The contacts get dirty and you can wipe them off with a Qtip and alcohol. Go light on the alcohol.

I'm not sure but if your current one just stopped working one day I would try cleaning it first before buying a new one. My replacement had instructions for keeping it clean and when I cleaned the "broken" one it worked right away. I just used some rubbing alcohol and a Q-tip and got the gunk out of the top and side. Hopefully you can save some money.
