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 is provided to reduce the risk resulting

from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

b) Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is

exercised in their use.

c) If a long extension cord is used:

1) The marked electrical rating of the 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 should be replaced

by qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service .

personnel.

CLEANING

1. Make sure your coffeemaker is unplugged and cool.

soapy water.

a soft, damp cloth.

Note: Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. Never immerse the

coffeemaker in water.

5. To clean the inside of the cover, open the cover and leave in the open position;

wipe with a damp cloth.

CLEANING WITH VINEGAR

Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your coffeemaker. Cleaning

is recommended once a month.

1. Pour white vinegar into water reservoir up to 6-cup line on the water level

window. Add water up to 10-cup line.

Caution: Be careful not to exceed the 12-cup maximum level, to avoid water

running out the overflow hole in the back of the coffeemaker.

2. Put a paper filter in the brew basket and close the one-piece cover. Set empty

carafe on the “Keep Hot” carafe plate.

3. Turn on coffeemaker and let half the cleaning solution brew into carafe

(until water level goes down to around the 5-cup line on the water level window).

Turn coffeemaker off and let it soak for at least 15 minutes to soften the

deposits.

4 Turn on coffeemaker and brew remaining cleaning solution into carafe.

5. Turn off coffeemaker, empty carafe and discard filter.

6. Fill reservoir with fresh water to 12-cup line, replace empty carafe on the “Keep

Hot” carafe plate and then turn on coffeemaker for a complete brew cycle

to flush out remaining cleaning solution. You may wish to repeat this step again

to eliminate any remaining vinegar smell/taste.

7. Wash the brew basket and carafe as instructed for normal cleaning.
