    IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Safe Operation & Use
    2
    WARNING TO USERS AND PARENTS
    1. DO NOT permit children to use brewer unless there 
    is adult supervision.  Brewer dispenses very hot water.
    2. SPECIAL NOTICE FOR HOT COCOA USERS:    
    IMMEDIATELY AFTER USING A HOT COCOA K-CUP,   
    RUN a Hot Water Brew Cycle  without a K-Cup to avoid 
    the possibility of clogging the exit needle.  DO NOT assume 
    the next user will do this. 
    When using electrical appliances, basic   
    safety precautions should be followed,   
    including the following:
    1. 
      Read all instructions before using.
    2.   
    Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle and
    knobs when available.
    3.   This appliance must be properly installed and 
    located in accordance with these instructions 
    before it is used.
    4.   The use of accessory attachments not recom -
    mended by the appliance manufacturer may re -
    sult in fire, electrical shock or injury to persons.
    5.   
    Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric 
    burner, or in a heated oven.
    6. Do not use outdoors.
    7.   To protect against fire, electric shock and injury, 
    do not immerse cords, plugs or the appliance in 
    water or any other liquid.
    8. Do not overfill the Water Reservoir with water.
    9.   Use  only water  in this appliance! Do not put any 
    other liquids or foods in the Water Reservoir, 
    except as instructed in the Cleaning Instructions 
    in this guide.
    10.    Turn off and unplug the Brewer before 
    cleaning or maintenance. Allow to cool   before putting on or taking off parts and 
     
    before cleaning the appliance.
    11.    For best operation, plug the appliance into
    its own electrical outlet on a dedicated circuit 
    to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuses 
    or tripping a circuit breaker.
    12.   Do not operate any appliance with a damaged 
    cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunc -
    tions or is damaged in any manner. Contact 
    Keurig Customer Service to report any   
    malfunction of or damage to the Brewer.
    13.    Do not let the cord hang over the edge
    of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
    14.   To disconnect, press the Power Button on
    the back of the Brewer to “OFF” status, and 
    then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
    15.   Close supervision is necessary when
    any appliance is used by or near children.
    16.    Do not lift the Brewer Handle while   
    brewing is in progress.
    17.   
    Always keep the Water Reservoir Lid on the 
    Water Reservoir unless you are refilling it.
    18.   This appliance is equipped with a power
    cord having a grounding wire with a 
    grounding plug. The appliance must be  grounded using a 3-hole, properly grounded 
    outlet. In the event of an electrical short 
    circuit, grounding reduces the risk of 
    electrical shock.
    19. 
      If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall
    outlet, it is your personal responsibility 
    and obligation to have it replaced with a 
    properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
    20.   Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
    remove the third (ground) prong from 
    the power cord or use an adapter.
    21.   Consult a qualified electrician if the
    grounding instructions are not completely 
    understood or if doubt exists as to whether 
    the appliance is properly grounded.
    22.   Do not use the appliance for any reason 
    other than its intended use.

    reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
    If an extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set 
    or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the 
    appliance; (2) the 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 un -
    intentionally; and (3) the extension cord must include a 3-prong grounding plug.

    							Set-Up
    Helpful Hints 
    1.  
    Keep your Brewer turned “ON” at all times.   
    To brew a fresh cup of coffee, tea or hot cocoa 
    anytime you want, we suggest you keep your 
    Brewer turned “ON” all the time. However, the 
    Brewer is fully programmable so you can set it 
    to turn on and off automatically to match your  schedule. Or, if you prefer, set the Brewer to   
    automatically turn off after a period of time. 
    Follow the simple instructions on pages 10–12 
    to make using the Brewer convenient for you.
    2.    For the best tasting gourmet coffee, tea or 
    hot cocoa, Keurig recommends using bottled 
    or filtered water. 
    Water quality varies from place to place. If you  notice an undesirable taste in your cup of   
    coffee, such as chlorine or other mineral tastes, 
    we recommend you consider using bottled 
    water or water from a filtration system.
    3.    Customize the Size, Flavor & Brew That’s   
    Perfect for You. 
    With the choice of over 200 varieties of K-Cups 
    and 3 brew sizes (Small Cup-5.25 oz., Small 
    Mug-7.25 oz. and Large Mug-9.25 oz.) your 
    Keurig Brewer gives you endless options to  customize the size, flavor and brew that’s 
    perfect for you. For a strong, intense cup, select an Extra Bold K-Cup (with up to 30% more  ground coffee than regular varieties) and brew 
    size that’s right for you. The smaller the brew 
    size, the more intense flavor in your cup. The  larger the brew size, the less intense flavor in 
    your cup. 
    4.    Plug Brewer into its own grounded outlet. 
    If the electric circuit is overloaded with other 
    appliances, your Brewer may not function 
    properly. The Brewer should be operated on its  own circuit, separate from other appliances.
    5.   
    Brewing into a travel mug. 
    To brew into a travel mug, simply remove the 
    Drip Tray Assembly and place the travel mug on the Drip Tray Base.
    6.   
    De-Scale Brewer regularly.    
    Please see page 13 for instructions.
    Unpacking Instructions
    1.  
    Place Brewer box on a large steady surface
    (such as a table or countertop) or on the floor.  Open the box.
    2. Remove enclosed literature.
    3.  
    Turn the box on its side with front of box face down.
    4.   Reach into the box and grasp the plastic bag 
    that contains the Brewer.
    5.   Carefully pull the plastic bag (and packaging 
    materials) toward you and out of the box. The 
    Brewer will still be encased in the polyfoam   
    and be on its side.
    6.  
    Remove the top polyfoam packaging material.
    7.  
    Carefully lift Brewer off of the bottom polyfoam 
    and place it upright on a flat, steady surface.
    8.   Lift plastic bag off of Brewer.
    9.  
    Record the serial number for this Brewer on 
    page 3 of this guide. The serial number can be 
    found on the bottom of the Brewer box or on the  Brewer behind the Drip Tray (when removed).
    10.  
    Place the Brewer upright on a flat, steady 
    surface. Remove tape holding Water Reservoir  in place. 
    We recommend you save all packing materials in  case future shipping of the product is necessary.
    WARNING: 
    Keep all plastic bags away   
    from children.

    K-Cup Holder (fig. 7). 
    CAUTION: There are two sharp needles that
    puncture the K-Cup, one above the K-Cup Holder 
    and the other in the bottom of the K-Cup Holder. 
    To avoid risk of injury, do not put your fingers in 
    the K-Cup Assembly Housing.
    6.    
    Lower the Handle to close the Lid over the
    K-Cup Holder. (When it is closed completely, 
    the LCD Control Center will indicate “READY 
    TO BREW” and the Small Cup, Small Mug and 
    Large Mug Buttons will flash up to 60 seconds.)
    9.     The Brewer will automatically fill the internal 
    tank with water and then the water will be heat -
    ed. This will take about 4 minutes. During the 
    heating period, “NOT READY” (fig. 4) is displayed 
    on the LCD Control Center.  Do not lift Brewer 
    Handle during this ‘heating period’ . Once 
    the water is heated, “READY” will be displayed 
    and the Small Mug Button will flash (fig. 5).   
    NOTE: You may see small amounts of water

    used K-Cup.   
    CAUTION: K-Cup will be hot.
    11.
       
    Enjoy your first cup of Keurig Brewed® 
    gourmet coffee, tea or hot cocoa!
    12.   
    Your Brewer may display “NOT READY” as 
    it heats water for the next brew cycle. The 
    “READY TO BREW” indication will return to   
    the LCD Control Center in about 15 seconds.
    NOTE: Following the brew, your Brewer will
    fill in preparation for the next brew. The pump 
    will make a vibrating sound. This is normal.
    Stopping the Brew Process
    If you need to stop brewing after the process has started, press the Power 
    Button to turn the Brewer “OFF.” The flow of coffee, tea or hot cocoa will stop,  the heating element will shut off, and the blue lights illuminating the brew 
    buttons and Water Reservoir will disappear. 
    NOTE: You may get less coffee, tea or hot cocoa in your cup during your next 
    brew. We recommend that you perform a cleansing brew with water-only after   
    a terminated brew. Then your NEXT brew will be the volume you have selected.

    Adding Water
    The LCD Control Center of your Brewer will  indicate when the water level in the Water   
    Reservoir is low or if the Water Reservoir has  been removed by displaying the words “ADD 
    WATER” (fig. 8). The blue light in the Water 
    Reser voir will also blink when water needs to  be added. The Brewer will not allow you to brew   
    when “ADD WATER” is displayed.
    The Water Reservoir can be filled in two ways. 
    1. 
     
    Lift off the Water Reservoir Lid and pour  water directly into the Water Reservoir   
    while it is still attached to the Brewer,   
    then replace the Lid.
    2.   
    Remove the Water Reservoir from Brewer by first removing Lid from 
    the Water Reservoir, then lifting the Water Reservoir straight up and   
    away from Brewer. Fill with water. Place the Water Reservoir back on   
    the Brewer and replace the Lid.
    IMPORTANT : Do not remove the Water Reservoir during the 
    brewing process.
    Brewing Hot Water
    Your Brewer is able to produce hot water for making hot cocoa from a packet, 
    for use in cooking, for making soups, etc. Simply raise and lower   
    the Handle on the Brewer without adding a K-Cup. The LCD Control Center 
    will display “READY TO BREW” and the Small Cup, Small Mug and Large 
    Mug Buttons will blink. Be sure to have a mug or cup on the Drip Tray Plate 
    and then select the size you would like.   
     
    NOTE: After brewing a hot cocoa K-Cup, we recommend running a hot water   
     brew cycle without a K-Cup.
    Purging the Brewer
    If your Brewer has not been used for more than one week, you should purge 
    the water from the inner tank.
    1.   
    If there is water in the Water Reservoir, remove the Lid, then lift the 
    Water Reservoir straight up and away from Brewer. Discard water, rinse 
    and refill with water. Place the Water Reservoir back on the Brewer and  replace the Lid. (If there is no water in the Water Reservoir, simply refill.)
    2.   
    Be sure the Brewer is turned on. Raise and lower the Handle on the 
    Brewer without inserting a K-Cup.
    3.   
    The LCD Control Center will display “READY TO BREW” and the Small Cup, 
    Small Mug and Large Mug Buttons will blink. Be sure to have a large mug 
    on the Drip Tray Plate and then select the Large Mug size brew.
    4.   
    Repeat steps 2 and 3 one more time to completely purge water from 
    inner tank.
