• Close adult supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by or near children.

• Turn the coffeemaker off and unplug the power cord from the power source when the coffeemaker or clock are not in use and before cleaning. Allow the coffeemaker parts to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or operate it after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return this appliance only to the nearest authorized service center for examination, repair or adjustment.

• To disconnect, turn the coffeemaker OFF, then remove the power plug from wall outlet.

• Do not use the coffeemaker for other reasons than its intended use.

• Place the coffeemaker on a hard, flat level surface to avoid interruption of air flow underneath the appliance.

• This coffeemaker is designed for household use only.

Decanter Use and Care

Follow the instructions below to reduce or eliminate the chance of breaking the decanter:

•

This decanter is designed for use with your MR. COFFEE®Coffeemaker and therefore must never be used on a rangetop or in any oven, including a microwave oven.

• Do not set a hot decanter on a wet or cold surface.

• Do not use a cracked decanter or a decanter having a loose or weakened handle.

• Do not clean the decanter with abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or

other abrasive materials.

• Discard the decanter immediately if it is ever boiled dry.

• Protect the decanter from sharp blows, scratches or rough handling.

Warning:

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove any service covers. There are no user serviceable parts inside the coffeemaker. Only authorized personnel should repair the coffeemaker.

Special Cord Set Instructions

1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

2. An extension cord may be purchased and used if care is exercised in its use.

3. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least 10 amps and 120 volts. The resulting extended cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

This appliance has a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other)

. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

Adding Water and Ground Coffee

1. Swing open the brew basket and, if desired, lift out the removable filter basket.

2. Place a MR. COFFEE

brand #4 cone paper

filter or a MR. COFFEE

permanent filter

in the removable filter basket.

If using paper filters, it is important that the sides of the filter fit flush against the sides of the filter basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter before placing it in the brew basket and adding ground coffee. Also, for best performance of your filters, be sure to fold the seam at the bottom of the filter and the tab that is located at the top of the filter.

Brewing Coffee

Cleaning the Coffeemaker Before First Use

Follow the steps under “Adding Water and Ground Coffee” and “Brewing Coffee Now,” but do not add coffee grounds.

Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee

For best results, use coffee ground for use with automatic drip coffeemakers. The amounts shown below are suggested amounts.

3. Add the desired amount of ground coffee to the filter. Gently shake the filter basket to level the ground coffee.

4. Be certain that the filter is centered in the filter basket. Close the brew basket.

5. Open the water reservoir lid and fill with the desired amount of water. Do not fill past the overfill hole in the back of the reservoir.

6. Place the decanter on the warming plate.

Make sure the decanter is fully placed on the warming plate or the water and grounds will overflow from the brew basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or damage to property.

To reduce the risk of damaging the decanter and/or the risk of personal injury, do not add cold water to the decanter if the decanter is already hot. Allow the decanter to cool before using.

5. Close the brew basket or lid. You are now ready to brew great tasting coffee. If the brew basket or lid does not close properly, then repeat Steps 4 – 5 to ensure that the filter has been properly inserted.

6. When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse the water filter with fresh water. Do not put your water filter in the dishwasher.
