SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from entanglement or tripping
over a longer cord. Longer detachable power supply cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power cord or extension
cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. The electrical rating of the
appliance is listed on the bottom of the unit. If the appliance is of the grounded type,
the extension cord should be a grounded type 3 wire cord. This appliance has a
polarized plug. One blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electrical shock
this plug will fit in a polarized plug only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Place the box on a large, sturdy flat surface. Carefully unpack your coffee maker and
remove all packaging material and literature. Remove any labels or stickers from the
coffee maker. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, you
may wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the
coffee maker in water or other liquid. Clean the carafe, carafe lid, filter basket and filter
in warm water with mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh or
abrasive cleaners. (See “Cleaning Your Coffee Maker” section of this manual for
detailed instructions.) Keep all plastic bags away from children.
NOTE: We recommend that prior to brewing your first pot of coffee, operate the coffee
maker once or twice with water only, without ground coffee. This will remove any dust
that may have settled inside the coffee maker, which may affect the flavor of the
coffee. IMPORTANT: Use cold water only. The automatic drip system works best with
cold water.
