ADDITIONAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING
THE ICED TEA MAKER
• Place the appliance well back from the edge of the counter.
• Avoid appliance areas which may become hot or emit steam when the iced tea maker
is on, particularly the steeping/brew basket and the water reservoir.
• The top lid must be closed at all times while the appliance is brewing.
• DO NOT operate the iced tea maker unless the pitcher has its lid on and is fitted
snugly against the appliance.
• DO NOT move the appliance while in use or until it has cooled off. Steam may
escape from the steeping/brew basket while the appliance is cooling.
• DO NOT place a tablecloth or other fabric underneath the appliance or otherwise
restrict airflow beneath it.
• DO NOT jerk or pull on the power cord when unplugging the appliance, grasp the
molded plug to unplug it.
• Never reheat a beverage by passing it through the appliance’s brewing system.
• DO NOT immerse the appliance in water. This may cause electrocution or shock,
damage it permanently and void the warranty.
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from a person
or pet becoming entangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord.
2. An extension cord may be purchased and used if care is exercised in its use.
3. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must
be at least 10 amps and 120 volts. The resulting extended cord must be arranged so
that it will not drape over a countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over accidentally.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
