IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions and
warnings.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:
• Read all instructions.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• Do not operate when the appliance is not working properly or when it has been
damaged in any manner. For service information see warranty page.
• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Focus Products Group
International may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
• Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.
• Do not use this appliance on the stovetop, under a broiler, in the oven, or in the
refrigerator or freezer.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and knobs where provided. Use hot pads or
oven mitts when handling hot surfaces.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other
hot liquids.
• Make sure cover, basket and stem are properly assembled before the appliance is
plugged in (see ”Instructions for Making Coffee” section). No part of the appliance
should be removed during the brewing cycle as scalding could occur.
• Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing cycle.
• To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons do not immerse cord, plugs,
or other electric parts in water or other liquids.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
• Do not use this appliance outdoors.
• Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn
any control to “OFF,” then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Be sure switch is turned to “OFF” before plugging the cord into wall outlet. If the appliance
does not have a switch, be sure the appliance contains water or brewed coffee before
plugging in. Do not leave appliance plugged in when it is not being used.
• Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer extension cords are available, but care must be exercised in their use. While
use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, ensure that the
marked electrical rating of the extension cord is equal to or greater than that of the
appliance. If the plug is of the grounded type, the extension cord must be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord. To avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement, position the extension cord
so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other area where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over.
• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or extension
cord feels hot.
