HEAT PRECAUTIONS
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs where provided. Use hot pads
or oven mitts when handling hot surfaces.
• Do not move an appliance containing hot water, coffee or other hot liquids.
• Do not refill the water reservoir while the appliance is on. Turn the machine off
and allow to cool before refilling with water.
• Make sure glass carafe is in place when brewing coffee. If the glass carafe is not
in place hot water or hot coffee will overflow.
• Do not remove any part of the coffeemaker, other than carafe; during the brew
cycle as scalding could occur.
• The lid of the carafe must be in place and properly positioned on the coffee
carafe during the brew process or hot water or hot coffee may overflow.
• Always use the proper grind of coffee. Too fine of a grind could clog the filter and
cause hot water or hot coffee to overflow.
