This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has
one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified
electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer
cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may
be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the coffeemaker.
Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or accidentally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with your coffeemaker.
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. 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.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not place cord, plug or
coffeemaker in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when either the coffeemaker or clock is not
in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or
taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.
6. Coffeemaker must be operated on a flat surface away from the
edge of counter to prevent accidental tipping.
7. 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 toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or adjustment.
8. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by
Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may result in fire, electrical
shock or personal injury.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot
surfaces, including stove.
11. The carafe is designed for use with this coffeemaker. It must
never be used on a range top or in a microwave oven.
12. Do not set a hot carafe on a wet or cold surface.
13. Do not use a cracked carafe or one with loose or weakened
handle.
14. Do not clean carafe or hot plate with cleansers, steel wool pads,
or other abrasive material.
15. Be certain carafe lid is securely in place during brew cycle and
when pouring coffee. Do not use force when placing lid on carafe.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
16. Do not place coffeemaker on or near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.
