IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read all instructions.
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:
A Note About Safety

2
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or
touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in
a heated oven.
• Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into
the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to the off
position, then remove plug from wall outlet.
• The coffee carafe is designed for use with this appliance.
It must never be used on a range top or in a
microwave oven.
• Do not put any substances other than water, descaling
products, or coffee grounds into the Coffee Maker.
Do not use Coffee Maker to cook or prepare other liquids
or foods.
• Do not use appliance without lid properly placed
on carafe.
• Do not touch internal parts while Coffee Maker is brewing.
• Do not remove or rotate brew basket while brewing coffee.
•This appliance is intended for household use
only. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
Do not use outdoors.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
remove the bottom cover. Doing so will void the warranty.
No user-serviceable parts are inside. Repair should be
done by authorized service personnel only.
Shock Hazard:
This appliance 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 adapter. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
Do not plug this appliance into an outlet with a voltage
other than specified on the bottom of this appliance.
We selected a short cord for this Coffee Maker to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping
over a longer cord. If you need to use a longer cord, an
approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than
the rating of Coffee Maker. Make sure the extension cord
is arranged so that it cannot be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use
any high wattage appliance on the same circuit as this
appliance. This Coffee Maker is not intended for use
by children, persons with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have received supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.

A Note About Water
Your Coffee Maker uses all the water you put in the tank every
time you brew. Add only as much filtered water as you need for
your coffee. For example, if you want to make 3 cups of coffee,
only fill the water tank to the 3-cup fill line.
Brew tip: If you’re brewing a single mug, use your mug to
measure the water and fill the water tank for a perfect cup.
Note: For best results, always use filtered water.
Do not use distilled water.
