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 brew station. 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 brew station.

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
brew station 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 brew station 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. Brew station 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 cause injuries.

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 coffee tank is designed for use with this brew station. It
must never be used on a range top or in a microwave oven.

12. Do not place brew station on or near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.

13. To disconnect brew station, turn controls to OFF, then remove
plug from wall outlet.

cycle.
