IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should always be fol-
lowed 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 han-
dles 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
coffeemaker in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when either the
coffeemaker 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. Coffeemaker must be operated on a
flat surface away from the edge of
counter to prevent accidental tipping.
7. 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.
8. The use of accessory attachments not
recommended by Hamilton Beach/
Proctor-Silex, Inc. may result in fire,
electrical shock or personal injury.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
11. The carafe is designed for use with
this coffeemaker. It must never be
used on a range top or in a microwave
oven.
12. Do not set a hot carafe on a wet or
cold surface.
13. Do not use a cracked carafe or one
with loose or weakened handle.
14. Do not clean carafe or hot plate with
cleansers, steel wool pads, or other
abrasive material.
15. Be certain carafe lid is securely in place
during brew cycle and when pouring
coffee. Do not use force when placing
lid on carafe.
16. To disconnect coffeemaker, turn
controls to OFF, then remove plug
from wall outlet.
17. Do not place coffeemaker on or near a
hot gas or electric burner or in a heated

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for house-
hold use only.
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-
type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type
of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet
made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the grounding pin by
modifying the plug in any way.
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 extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating
of the coffeemaker. 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 coffeemaker.
