ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THE ICED TEA MAKER

• Place the appliance well back from the edge of the counter.

• Avoid appliance areas which may become hot or emit steam when the iced tea maker is on, particularly the steeping/brew basket and the water reservoir.

• The top lid must be closed at all times while the appliance is brewing.

• DO NOT operate the iced tea maker unless the pitcher has its lid on and is fitted snugly against the appliance.

• DO NOT move the appliance while in use or until it has cooled off. Steam may escape from the steeping/brew basket while the appliance is cooling.

• DO NOT place a tablecloth or other fabric underneath the appliance or otherwise restrict airflow beneath it.

• DO NOT jerk or pull on the power cord when unplugging the appliance, grasp the molded plug to unplug it.

• Never reheat a beverage by passing it through the appliance’s brewing system.

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 a 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.

CLEAN YOUR ICED TEA MAKER BEFORE USING THE FIRST TIME

Make sure your first glass of iced tea is as good as can be by cleaning your Oster®Iced Tea Maker before using it for the first time. Just follow these simple steps:

WARNING! To prevent injuries from steam, do not plug in the appliance

until you have poured water in the reservoir, the lid is closed and the pitcher is in its place.

1. Open the top lid and remove brew basket.

2. Wash the pitcher, pitcher lid and brew basket in the dishwasher or with a

mixture of mild detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly.

3. Fill the pitcher with water to the top water level mark. Rotate the head of

the ice tea maker to open it and pour the water into the water reservoir. Do not overfill.

4. Open the top lid and insert brew basket. Close lid.

5. Fill pitcher to ice marking line.

6. Place the pitcher lid on the pitcher. Slide the pitcher towards the iced tea

maker with the pitcher fitting under the Rotating Brew Head.

7. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet and push the “on” button.

8. When the cycle is complete, your iced tea maker will shut off automatically.

9. Slide the pitcher away from the iced tea maker and discard the water in the sink.

NOTE: Plugging the iced tea maker into an electrical outlet may trigger the

brewing cycle since the “on” button may have inadvertently been pushed. Also, if you wish to turn the iced tea maker off during the brewing cycle, just grasp the molded plug and unplug the power cord.

Your iced tea maker is now ready to use. Enjoy it!
