What should I do if the Exit Needle gets clogged?

The Exit Needle is located on the inside bottom of the K-Cup Holder Assembly and can become clogged due to coffee grinds. To clean it, remove the K-Cup Holder assembly and detach the Funnel. Insert a paper clip or similar tool into the needle to loosen the clog and push it out. The K-Cup Holder is dishwasher safe for thorough cleaning after unclogging.
