SPECIAl CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from a person or pet becoming
entangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord.
2. An extension cord may be purchased and used if care is exercised in its use.
3. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least
10 amps and 120 volts. The resulting extended cord must be arranged so that it will not drape
over a countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
4. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
5. You can customize the length of the power cord so that it is the exact length you desire. To increase
the length of the power cord: grasp the power cord (not the power plug) and gently lift it out of the
slot, then pull it away from the coffeemaker. To decrease the length of the power cord: grasp the
power cord (not the power plug), lift it out of the slot and gently feed it into the coffeemaker. Lock
the cord in the slot when finished.
