IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Safe Operation & Use

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use

handles and knobs when available.

3. This appliance must be properly

installed and located in accordance
with these instructions before it
is used.

4. The use of accessory attachments

not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may result in fire,
electrical shock or injury to persons.

5. Do not place on or near a hot gas or

electric burner, or in a heated oven.

6. Do not use outdoors.

7. To protect against fire, electric shock

and injury do not immerse cords,
plugs, or the appliance in water or
any other liquid.

8. Do not overfill the Water Reservoir

with water.

9. Use only water in this appliance!

Do not put any other liquids or
foods in the Water Reservoir
except as instructed in the Cleaning
Instructions in this guide.

10. Turn off and unplug the Brewer before

cleaning or maintenance. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts
and before cleaning the appliance.

11. For best operation, plug the appliance

into its own electrical outlet on a
dedicated circuit to prevent flickering
of lights, blowing of fuses or tripping
a circuit breaker.

12. Do not operate any appliance with a

damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or is damaged
in any manner. Contact Keurig
Customer Service to report any
malfunction of or damage to the Brewer.

13. Do not let the cord hang over the edge

of the table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.

14. To disconnect, press the Power

Button on the Brewer to ‘OFF’ status
and then remove the plug from the
wall outlet.

15. Close supervision is necessary when

any appliance is used by or near
children.

16. Do not lift the Handle to open the

Brewer while brewing is in progress.

17. Always keep the Water Reservoir Lid

on the Water Reservoir unless you are
refilling it.

18. This appliance is equipped with a

power cord having a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. The appliance
must be grounded using a 3-hole
properly grounded outlet. In the
event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk
of electrical shock.

19. If the outlet is a standard 2-prong

wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.

20. Do not, under any circumstances,

cut or remove the third (ground)
prong from the power cord or use
an adapter.

21. Consult a qualified electrician if

the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.

22. Do not use the appliance for

other than its intended use.

CAUTION: There is extremely hot water in the Vue™ Cup Holder
during the brew process. To avoid risk of injury, do not lift the
Handle or remove the Brew Head during the brewing process.
Do not remove or puncture the lid of the Vue
brewing. After brewing, use caution when removing the Vue
Cup, as it will be hot.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS: A short power supply cord is
provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.

Longer detachable power-supply or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of
the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance; (2) the cord should be arranged
so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally; and (3) the
extension cord must include a 3-prong grounding plug.
