When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Care must be
taken, as burns can occur from touching hot parts or from spilled,
hot liquid.
3. To protect against fire, electric shock, and injury to persons do not
immerse cord, plug, power base, or any part of the percolator in
water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when the percolator is not in use and before
cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and
before cleaning the appliance.
6. Percolator must be operated on a flat surface away from the edge
of counter to prevent accidental tipping.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or
after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in
any manner. Call our toll-free customer assistance number for
information on examination, repair, or adjustment.
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: If the plug on this appliance does not fit
in your outlet, do not modify the plug, and do not use an adaptor.
Have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with your percolator.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord. If
a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the counter-
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
