This appliance intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord
(3-prong plug). This type of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet
made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature intended to help
reduce the risk of electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.
Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding pin
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 percolator. 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 percolator.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, do not immerse the
percolator in water.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed 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 fire, electric shock, and injury to persons do
not place cord, plug or percolator in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when the percolator is not in use and before
cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and
before cleaning the appliance.
6. Percolator 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 assistance number for
information on examination, repair, or mechanical adjustment.
8. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electrical shock or
injury to persons.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot
surfaces, including stove.
11. Be certain cover is securely in place during perk cycle and when
serving coffee. Scalding may occur if cover is removed during
perk cycle.
12. Do not place percolator on or near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
13. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall
outlet. To disconnect percolator, remove plug from wall outlet,
then unplug from percolator.
