IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

To protect against electric shock, do not place cord, plug or appliance in water or other liquids.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment. Or, call the appropriate toll-free number on the cover of this manual.

The use of an accessory not evaluated for use with this appliance may cause injury.

Do not use outdoors.

Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

The carafe is designed for use with the appliance. It must never be used on a range top.

Do not clean the carafe with abrasive cleansers, steel wool, or other abrasives.

Do not use this appliance for other than intended use. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning : This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent

removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel. ELECTRICAL CORD a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension

cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a

grounding-type 3-wire cord, and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the

countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. NOTE: If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

USING THERMAL CARAFE

• For best performance, rinse the carafe with warm water before brewing. This brings up the temperature and improves the carafe’s thermal properties.

• Coffee is brewed directly into carafe through the closed brew thru lid. Always check that lid is properly in place when brewing. Coffee may overflow if lid is not properly in place. See instructions in "Brewing a Pot of Coffee."

• The carafe keeps coffee hot up to 4 hours so you can leave it away from coffeemaker for serving. Always check that lid is properly closed in place when not in use, this will ensure that coffee stays hot. See instructions in "Sneak-a-Cup® Interrupt Coffeemaker Feature."
