Caution
Read all instructions before using this product.
This appliance must kept out of the reach of
children! Before plugging into a socket, check
whether your voltage corresponds with the voltage
printed on the bottom of the appliance.
Do not put the carafe on other heated surfaces
(such as stove plates, hot trays, etc.).
Before you start preparing coffee a second time,
always allow the coffeemaker to cool down approxi-
mately for 5 minutes between brewing (switch the
appliance off), otherwise steam can develop when
you pour cold water into the water container and this
could cause scalding.
