RECAUTIONS
•
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and hot pads or oven mitts if you lift or
carry the 3 in 1 Coffee Center when it is hot.
•
Do not move an appliance containing hot food or hot liquids.
•
Do not refill the water reservoir or the boiler while the appliance is on. Turn the
machine off and allow to cool before refilling with water.
•
Make sure the brew basket is closed properly during the brewing process. If the
brew basket is not closed properly, this may cause hot water/coffee overflow.
•
Make sure glass carafe is in place when brewing coffee. If the glass carafe is
not in place this will cause hot water/coffee overflow.
•
Do not remove any part of the coffeemaker, other than the carafe, during the
brew cycle as scalding could occur.
•
The lid of the carafe must be in place and properly positioned on the coffee
carafe during the brew process or hot water or hot coffee may overflow.
•
Always use the proper grind of coffee. Too fine of a grind could clog the filter
and cause hot water/coffee overflow.
•
Use caution when removing the espresso filter holder. The metal parts remain
hot after operation. See Pressure Precautions section.
•
Allow 3 in 1 Coffee Center to cool completely after use and before before putting
on or taking off parts and before cleaning or storing.
