IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or
injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Plug into a grounded outlet.
3. 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.
4. To protect against electric shock, do not
place cord, plug, or coffeemaker in
water or other liquid.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children.
6. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
7. This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction con-
cerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
8. Unplug from outlet when the coffee-
maker is not in use and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before putting on or taking
off parts and before cleaning the
appliance.
9. Coffeemaker must be operated on a flat
surface away from the edge of counter
to prevent accidental tipping.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped
or damaged in any manner. Call our

it must be replaced with the same
markings. Fuse covers and carriers can
be obtained from approved service
agents.

recommended by the appliance manu-
facturer may cause injuries.

surface.
17. Do not use a cracked carafe or one
with a loose or weakened handle.
18. Do not clean carafe with cleansers, steel
wool pads, or other abrasive material.

where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
