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 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
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 cof-
feemaker 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, includ-
ing 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 cof-
fee. Do not use force when placing lid on

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an elec-
trical outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If you are unable to insert
the plug into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact
a qualified electrician to replace the obso-
lete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug 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.
