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.

coffee flavor.

the box on its side. Slide the packaged unit out  
of the box. Remove the foam insert and the  
cardboard insert. Now remove the carafe from the

materials in the event that future shipping of the  
machine is needed. Keep all plastic bags
