7.
and injury do not immerse cords, plugs,
or the appliance in water or any other
liquid.
Do not overfill the Water Reservoir
8.
with water.
Use only water in this appliance! Do
9.
not put any other liquids or foods in the
Water Reservoir except as instructed in
the Cleaning Instructions in this guide.
Turn off and unplug the brewer before
10.
cleaning or maintenance. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts
and before cleaning the appliance.
Safe Operation & Use
For best operation, plug the appliance
11.
into its own electrical outlet on a
dedicated circuit to prevent flickering
of lights, blowing of fuses or tripping a
circuit breaker.
Do not operate any appliance with a
12.
damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions or is
damaged in any manner. Contact
Keurig Customer Service to report
any malfunction of or damage to the
brewer.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge
13.
of the table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
To disconnect, press the Power Button
14.
on the brewer to "OFF" status and then
remove the plug from the wall outlet.
Close supervision is necessary when
15.
any appliance is used by or near
children.
Do not lift the brewer Handle while
16.
brewing is in progress.
Always keep the Water Reservoir Lid
17.
on the Water Reservoir unless you are
refilling it.
This appliance is equipped with a power
18.
cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The appliance must
be grounded using a 3-hole properly
grounded outlet. In the event of an
2
electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electrical shock.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall
19.
outlet, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
20.
remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord or use an adapter.
Consult a qualified electrician if
21.
the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Do not use the appliance for other than
22.
its intended use.
