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 Electrics 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 cover 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.
• 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.
• Longer, detachable power-supply cords, or extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use. While use of an extension cord is not
recommended, if you must use one, the marked electrical rating of the detachable
power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be
a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or extension
cord feels hot.
• Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance and hot surfaces during operation.
• Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by or near children.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
