WARNING Electrical Shock

Hazard: This appliance is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

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 appliance. 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.

Troubleshooting

Coffee tastes bad.

• Coffee Maker needs cleaning.
- Coffee ground too coarsely or too finely. Set coffee grinder to automatic drip grind.
- Poor coffee quality and freshness.
- Poor water quality (use filtered or bottled water).

Water on counter under unit.

• Overfilled Water Reservoir.

Coffee Maker Light will not turn on and will not brew.

• Make sure you have allowed for 2 minutes of cool-down time.
- Check for water in Water Reservoir. If there is no water in Reservoir and BREW Button is pushed, Coffee Maker will not brew.

Coffee overflows from Funnel.

• Use a lesser amount of ground coffee.
• When using whole bean coffee, a standard automatic drip coffee grind will yield best results. Be careful not to overgrind, since very finely ground coffee can cause overflow in this Coffee Maker.

Coffee overflows from mug.

- This Coffee Maker brews 10 ounces (284 mL) of coffee. To prevent coffee overflowing,

ensure that your cup or mug will hold 10 to 12 (284 to 341 mL) ounces.

- Brewing cycle has been interrupted. When Coffee Maker is stopped, it will start over and brew 10 ounces (284 mL).

Coffee not dispensing.

- Piercing Needle is clogged with coffee grounds. Turn Coffee Maker off; unplug. Allow Coffee Maker to cool completely. To remove any built-up coffee grounds, insert end of bent paper clip into Needle and move up and down needle to ensure grounds have been removed.

Failed foil seal on Single-Serve Pod.

- There is variability in the single-serve pod manufacturing process which causes some types of single-serve pods to be weaker at the seams. Let cool 2 minutes between brewing, or try a different brand.

Water bubble in Water Reservoir.

- If making a second cup of coffee immediately after the first, you may notice a gurgle of water and steam when Lid is opened. It is recommended to wait 2 minutes between brews for Coffee Maker to cool down.
