SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 
Your coffeemaker needs no special care other than cleaning.  If servicing becomes necessary, and your coffeemaker is within the warranty 
period, please return your coffeemaker to The West Bend Company.  See Warranty section for details.  Do not attempt to repair it yourself.

WARNING:  To prevent personal injury or electrical shock, do not remove cover from the underside of coffeemaker base.  There are no user 
serviceable parts inside the base.  Repair should be done by authorized personnel only. 
 
Electric Cord Statement 
 
CAUTION:  Your coffeemaker has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage resulting from pulling, 
tripping or becoming entangled with the cord.  Do not allow children to be near or use the coffeemaker without close adult supervision.  If 
you must use a longer cord set or an extension cord when using the coffeemaker, the cord must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over 
the edge of the countertop, tabletop or surface area where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.  To prevent electric shock, personal 
injury or fire, the electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the coffeemaker (wattage is 
stamped on underside of coffeemaker).

the plug does not fit in the outlet, reverse plug.  If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
 
electrician.  Never use and extension cord unless plug 
can be fully inserted.  Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
