OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Be sure Quick Café II is unplugged.
2. Set dual voltage selector switch to the proper position.
For use in the USA/North America, the voltage selector
switch should be set in the 120 volt position. For use
in most foreign countries, the selector switch must be
placed in the 240 volt position (Figure 1). Confirm the
voltage available at each location before using the Quick
Café II.
NOTE: Use the proper adaptor plug to make the
connection to a 220/240 volt electrical outlet (Figure 2).
3. Remove cup, swing lid up and pull filter assembly from
the water reservoir. Clean and dry all parts before using.
DO NOT immerse the Quick Café II base in water.

shock and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the Quick Café II.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to
persons, do not immerse cord, plugs, or unit in water or
other liquids or use where it can fall or be pulled into a
tub or sink.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance
is used by or near children or invalids. Do not leave
unattended when connected to electrical outlet.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and
before cleaning the Quick Café II.
6. Do not operate the Quick Café II with a damaged cord

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner,
or in a heated oven.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an
appliance containing hot water and steam.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is 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.
2. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance such as a hair dryer, etc., at the same
time on the same circuit.
3. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.
4. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords
are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
5. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a
10-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less
amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange
the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
6. Clean all parts before using (See “To Clean”).
CHECK VOLTAGE BEFORE USING
1. Your Quick Café II is provided with a dual voltage selector
switch that is located on the side of the Quick Café II base.
This switch is set at the factory to operate at 120 volts.
Refer to “Operating Instructions” section of this manual for
conversion to 240 volts (Figure 1).
2. CAUTION: Be sure dual voltage selector switch is in correct
voltage position before operating. QUICK CAFÉ II CAN
BE DAMAGED IF VOLTAGE SWITCH IS IN 120 VOLT
POSITION AND HOT BEVERAGE MAKER IS PLUGGED
INTO 220/240 VOLT ELECTRICAL OUTLET. Before
plugging in, read the information about dual voltage operation
in the “Operating Instructions” section of this manual.
NOTE: An adaptor plug may be needed when traveling
outside the USA (Figure 2). Ask your Voltage Valet dealer
about available adaptor plugs.
