When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Care must be taken, as burns can occur
from touching hot parts or from spilled, hot liquid.
3. To protect against fire, electrical shock and injury to persons do not immerse cord, plugs or
coffee urn in water or other liquids.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when the coffeemaker is not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.
6. Coffeemaker must be operated on a flat surface away from the edge of counter to prevent
accidental tipping.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunc-
tions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer assistance number
for information on examination, repair or adjustment.

result in fire, electrical shock or injury to persons.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including stove.
11. Lock cover securely in place during brew cycle and when serving coffee.
12. Scalding may occur if cover is removed during brew cycle.
13. Do not place coffeemaker on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
14. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect
coffeemaker, remove plug from wall outlet, then unplug from coffeemaker.

This appliance intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: If the plug on this appliance does not fit in your outlet, do not modify
the plug, and do not use an adaptor. Have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming
tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary a grounded type 3-wire
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the rating of the grill. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it
will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or acciden-
tally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high wattage appliance on the same
circuit with your coffeemaker.
