than the intended use, described in these instructions. Any other use, especially misuse, can
cause severe injuries or damage by electric shock, heat or fire.
Any operation, repair and technical maintenance of the appliance or any part of it other than

• This appliance is for household use only and NOT intended for the use in moving vehicles.
Do not operate or store the appliance in humid or wet areas, outdoors, or where it is expo-
sed to inadmissible strain. Always keep the appliance and any parts of it where it is out of
reach of young children.
• Check the entire appliance regularly for proper operation. Water reservoir, glass carafe,
and filter basket may not have any scratches or cracks, the power cord may not be broken,
cracked or melted, and the pins of the power plug must be clean, smooth, and without disco-
loration. To avoid risk of fire, electric shock or any other damage and/or injuries to persons,
do not operate the appliance, when the appliance or any part of it was subject to inadmis-
sible strain (e.g. overheating, mechanical or electric shock, leakage), or if the appliance is
not properly working. Do not use the appliance, if water accumulates under the appliance
during operation. In this case, immediately unplug the appliance and return the entire appli-
ance (including all parts and accessories) to an authorised service centre for examination and
repair.
• Do not attempt to operate the appliance using any parts or accessories (e.g. glass carafe
and filter basket) or consumables (filter bags) not recommended by the manufacturer to avoid
risk of overheating, fire, and/or electric shock. Damaged or unsuitable parts could break or
become distorted during operation, and cause severe injuries to persons, or damage to the
appliance. Especially, usage of unsuitable filter bags or other vessels than the
supplied glass carafe can cause hazards due to hot water, steam, electric
shock or fire.
• When moving the appliance, always grasp the appliance with both hands at the side
panels near the bottom. DO NOT carry the appliance at the water reservoir or filter basket
chamber to avoid damage.

large table or counter. Do not use the appliance in wet or damp areas. Always keep the
appliance and the table or counter clean and dry, and wipe off spilled liquids immediately.
Do not place the appliance near the edge of the table or counter or on wet or
inclined surfaces or where it can fall down.
• Do not place the appliance or any part of it on or near hot surfaces (e.g. heater, gas bur-
ner, grill or oven). Do not operate the appliance beneath any heat-sensitive or moisture-sensi-
tive materials or beneath boards or drop-lights to avoid damage caused by steam, condensate
or fire. During operation keep the appliance in an appropriate distance of at least 20 cm on
each side to furniture, walls, boards, curtains and other objects.
