for removing or touching any hot parts. Do not reach over or across the Coffee Roaster while it is in

first attaching the heat protection grillwork. Discontinue use if any part becomes damaged, does not fit
properly, or if the machine does not operate properly. Do not attempt to service the machine yourself,
but seek repair or replacement from an authorized service center or your dealer.
