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 BrewStation®
in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near chil-
dren.
5. Unplug from outlet when either the
BrewStation®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. Scalding may occur if the lid is lifted
during the brewing cycle. Do not
open lid until coffeemaker has cooled
completely.
7. BrewStation®must be operated on a
flat surface away from the edge of
counter to prevent accidental tipping.
8. 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
toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, repair, or
adjustment.
9. The use of accessory attachments
not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries.
10. Do not use outdoors.
11. Do not let cord hang over edge of

faces, including stove.

Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for house-
hold use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appli-
ance has a polarized plug (one wide
blade) that reduces the risk of electric
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.
The length of the cord used on this appli-
ance 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 exten-
sion 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®.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
13. Do not place BrewStation®on or near
a hot gas or electric burner or in a
heated oven.
14. To disconnect BrewStation®, turn
controls to OFF, then remove plug
from wall outlet.
15. 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.
16. Do not use appliance for other than
intended use.
