IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and/or personal injury.
1. Read all instructions carefully.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the handle on the carafe.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not place cord, plug or coffee maker in
water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance
to authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments is not recommended by the manufacturer.
It may be dangerous and should be avoided.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near hot gas or electric burner, or in heated oven.
11. Always plug cord into the wall outlet before turning on any controls. To
disconnect turn power OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
12. Always use cold water to make coffee. Warm water or other liquids could
cause damage to the coffee maker.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (continued)
24. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not remove the
bottom cover. No user serviceable parts inside. Repairs should be performed
by authorized service personnel only. CAUTION: Do not immerse in any liquid.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from entanglement or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power supply cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power cord or
extension cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should
be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. The electrical rating of the appliance is listed on the bottom of the unit. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounded type 3 wire cord. This appliance has a polarized
plug. One blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electrical shock this plug
will fit in a polarized plug only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE BOTTOM COVER. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REPAIRS
SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE UNIT IN LIQUID.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Place the box on a large, sturdy flat surface. Carefully unpack your coffee maker and
remove all packaging material and literature. Remove any labels or stickers from the
coffee maker. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, you
may wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the coffee
maker in water or other liquid. Clean the carafe, carafe lid, filter basket and filter in
warm water with mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners. (See “Cleaning Your Coffee Maker” section of this manual for
detailed instructions.) Keep all plastic bags away from children.
NOTE: We recommend that prior to brewing your first pot of coffee, operate the coffee
maker once or twice with water only, without ground coffee. This will remove any dust
that may have settled inside the coffee maker, which may affect the flavor of the
coffee. IMPORTANT: Use cold water only. The automatic drip system works best with
cold water.
