Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided

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.

• The piercing needle may be clogged. Clean piercing needle in the lid of the coffee maker as shown on page 8.

• Use removable brew basket for ground coffee. 3 tablespoons (44 ml) is the maximum amount of grounds to brew.

• Use a lesser amount of ground coffee.

• When using whole bean coffee, a standard automatic drip coffee grind will yield best results. Be careful not to overgrind, since very finely ground coffee can cause overflow.

• 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 14 ounces (414 ml) of water. There may also be additional water in the system that is causing the overflow. Remove brew basket or single-serve pack holder. Press
