shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any

Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided

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 appliance. 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 this appliance.

cleanly and can dribble water down the side of the cup and onto counter.

• Make sure you have allowed for the 2 minutes of cool-down time.

• Check for water in water reservoir. If there is no water in the reservoir and the brew button is
pushed, the unit will not brew.

Be careful not to overgrind, since very finely ground coffee can cause overflow in this unit.

• To prevent coffee overflowing from a mug/travel mug, use the same mug/travel mug to brew into
that was used to fill the water reservoir. Do not add more than 10 ounces (296 ml) of water.
