• Read all instructions prior to the first use.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Do not touch the heating plate or bottom of the carafe
when the keep warm function is on. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons, do not immerse the cord,
plugs or machine in water or other liquids.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by T-fal may result in fire,
electric shock or injury to persons.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• To disconnect the machine, turn the control to "off" then remove the plug from the
wall outlet. Do not yank on the cord, instead grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

CAUTION
This machine is intended for household use only. Any servicing other than cleaning
and user maintenance should be performed by the nearest authorized T-fal Service
Center. Visit our website at www.t-fal.ca in Canada or contact your respective country's
Consumer Service department for the service center nearest to you.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to disassemble the machine.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A. We do not recommend using an extension cord with this device. A short power cord
or a detachable power cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord accidentally.
B. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
1. the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the machine,
2. the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
C. This machine 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. In the interest
of improving products, T-fal reserves the right to change specifications without prior
notice.
