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 should be replaced by
qualified personnel.
How to Use
This product is for household use only.
GETTING STARTED

• Pour fresh cold water up to Max level mark into the water
reservoir.
• Place permanent filter into removable filter basket. Place basket
into filter basket holder.

• Brew water through as instructed in BREWING COFFEE, but do not
add coffee grounds or soft pods. When finished, discard the water
from the mug.
BREWING COFFEE WITH LOOSE GROUND COFFEE
1. Lift cover. Pour cold water up to the Max fill line in the water
reservoir (unless using the instructions in the following note).
Note: If desired, before placing mug on the mug rest, remove the lid
from the travel mug and add sweetener, cream or milk to the mug
before brewing; replace the lid before placing mug on the mug rest. If
using this tip do not fill reservoir to Max line; leave space in reservoir
to allow for room in mug once coffee is brewed.
2. Place the filter basket into the filter basket holder at the top of
the coffeemaker with the handle to the left and the center notch
resting securely at the center back.
3. Place the permanent filter into the filter basket with the handle to

rest directly under the filter basket opening.
6. Press the Start switch; the power indicator light illuminates. The
coffeemaker and power indicator light turn off automatically when
brewing is finished. Allow coffee to finish dripping from the unit
before removing your travel mug.
Note: There will be slightly less coffee in your travel mug than the
amount of water added, as the grounds absorb some of the liquid.
Tip: Your coffeemaker can also be used to brew hot water for other
hot beverages such as tea, hot chocolate, instant oatmeal and soups.
To brew hot water and avoid coffee flavor, remove the permanent
filter and basket and follow the brewing process (without adding
grounds).
Caution: Be careful when opening the cover after brewing as
this area is hot and steamy. Use the lift tab located on the front
of the cover.

reservoir (unless following Note after step 1 in BREWING COFFEE
WITh LOOSE COFFEE GROUNDS ).

soft pod in the permanent filter; we recommend 2 soft pods for
16 ounces.

maker as instructed in steps 2 and 3 in Brewing Coffee with Loose
Coffee Grounds. Close the cover.
4. Place the thermal travel mug with the lid securely in place on the
mug rest directly under the filter basket opening.

coffeemaker and power indicator light turn off automatically when
brewing is finished. Allow the coffee to finish dripping from the unit

Cleaning is recommended once a month. Excessive steaming or a
prolonged brewing cycle is a sign that a cleaning is needed.

3. Press the Start switch and let the cleaning solution brew through
until the unit shuts off automatically.
