Other Consumer Safety Information
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
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
coffeemaker 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 coffeemaker 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. Coffeemaker 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 tollfree 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 result in fire,
electrical shock or personal injury.
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 carafe is designed for use with this
coffeemaker. It must
never be used on a range top or in a
microwave oven.
12. Do not set a hot carafe on a wet or cold
surface.
13. Do not use a cracked carafe or one with
loose or weakened handle.
14. Do not clean carafe or hot plate with
cleansers, steel wool pads, or other
abrasive material.
15. Be certain carafe lid is securely in place
during brew cycle and when pouring coffee. Do not use force when placing lid on
carafe.
16. To disconnect coffeemaker, turn
controls to OFF, then remove plug
from wall outlet.
17. Do not place coffeemaker on or near a
hot gas or electric burner or in a heated
oven.
18. Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not remove the bottom
cover. No user serviceable parts are
inside. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.
19. Do not use appliance for other than
intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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
coffeemaker. 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 coffeemaker.

carafe of cold tap water into the
reservoir. Place carafe on Keep-Hot
Base.
9. Press ON/OFF button once. When
the brew cycle is complete, empty
the carafe. Allow the coffeemaker

one more carafe of cold tap water.
10. Wash carafe and filter basket
before making a beverage.
To Clean Carafe and Filter Basket:
1. Wash carafe by hand in hot, soapy
water. Carafe may be washed on the
top rack of the dishwasher.
2. To remove the filter basket, open
Top Lid and lift straight up by handle. The filter basket may be washed
by hand or in the top rack of the
dishwasher. To maintain performance, clean the filter basket often.
To Clean Exterior of Coffeemaker:
Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth and
warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaners as they will scratch the
finish of the product.
To maintain the performance of your coffeemaker, clean your
coffeemaker once a month. Periodic cleaning removes mineral
deposits that slow down brew time and results in bitter coffee taste.

Carafe Safety Precautions
This symbol reminds you that glass is fragile and can break which
could result in personal injury.
This symbol alerts you to the potential danger for personal injury if
you fail to read and follow these safety precautions.
• Do not use a cracked carafe or a
carafe having a loose or weakened
handle.
• This carafe is designed to be used
only on the Keep-Hot Plate of your
coffeemaker. Do not use on a gas or
electric rangetop, or in a microwave
or conventional oven.
• To avoid breakage, handle carafe with
care. Avoid impact. Glass will break
as a result of impact. Use care when
filling with water to avoid hitting
faucet.
• Do not place hot carafe on cool or
wet surface. Allow to cool before
washing or adding liquids.
• Do not set empty carafe on a hot
heating surface.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads,
abrasive cleanser, or any other materials that may scratch.
• Do not place hands inside carafe.
When handling, be careful if wearing
any hand jewelry, especially diamond
rings. Jewelry can scratch the glass,
which increases possibility of breakage.
• Do not bump, scratch, or boil dry.
• Discard carafe if it is cracked,
scratched, or heated while empty for
an extended period of time.
• To avoid accidents, do not pour in the
direction of people.
• If stirring in the carafe, use only
wooden, plastic, or rubber utensils.
Do not use metal utensils.
• Follow the above safety precautions
carefully to avoid serious burn injuries
which may result if breakage occurs
while carafe holds heated liquids.
