wWARNING

Shock Hazard

• Do not immerse this appliance in water or other liquid.

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electrical

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 way or using an adaptor. If the plug
does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household
use only.

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
BrewStation. 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 BrewStation.

If the BrewStation overflows during brewing,
always allow unit to cool before cleaning
unit, coffee and grounds.
