Coffeemakers Recalled by North American Systems NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 Note: Telephone Number & Responding Company Change. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Originally issued June 22, 1983, Revised January 14, 2003 Release # 83-037 CPSC And North American Systems, Inc., Announces Voluntary Mr. Coffee Recall WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The Consumer Product Safety Commission has joined with North American Systems, Inc., in a voluntary recall of the CMX-1000 l2-cup 4-button Digital Clock model of the Mr. Coffee coffeemaker because of a potential fire hazard. CPSC and the firm are aware of twenty complaints where the product has failed although no injuries have been reputed. There were over 300,000 machines manufactured of which 147,000 have already been modified. The problem occurs while the coffeemaker is plugged in and set to any of the three control positions (on, off, automatic). Failure could result in overheating, smoking, or ignition of the coffeemaker. Only machines manufactured between September 21, 1981 and April, 1982, are involved. No other Mr. Coffee units and models manufactured by NAS are affected or involved. The CMX-1000 12-cup 4-button Digital Clock units subject to the NAS modification program are date-stamped on the bottom metal plate with 3 digit code numbers starting at 38-l and ending at 21-2. The first two digits represent the week of the year and the third digit represents the year. Each unit was sold retail to consumers for approximately $30 to $40. North American Systems, Inc., advises consumers to check their machines for the above listed date code numbers and to unplug and discontinue use of their machine at once if its date code number falls into this range. NAS advises consumers to disregard this notice if their machine has been modified as a result of previous contact with the company or an authorized service center. If a unit is subject to this recall, consumers should contact Sunbeam Products, Inc. at (800) 672-6333 for assistance (Mr. Coffee is no longer owned by North American Systems, Inc., but Sunbeam Products, Inc. has now taken over in responding to questions about this recall). Information concerning this matter is also available to consumers who call CPSC's toll-free Hotline at 800-638-CPSC. A teletypewriter number for the hearing impaired is (301) 595-7054.

Mr. Coffee Espresso/Cappuccino Makers Filter Repair NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 Note: Telephone Number & Responding Company Change. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Ken Giles Originally issued March 6, 1997, Revised January 14, 2003 (301) 504-7052 Release # 97-081 CPSC, Health o meter Inc. Announce Recall to Replace Filter Holders and Filter Baskets on Mr. Coffee Espresso/Cappuccino Makers WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Health o meter Inc. of Bedford Heights, Ohio, voluntarily recalled about 50,000 Mr. Coffee espresso/cappuccino makers to replace their filter holders and filter baskets. The construction of the filter holder could make it difficult for consumers to rotate the holder securely into position. If the filter holder is not rotated securely into position, it can dislodge under pressure. As a result, it can break the glass carafe and consumers can be cut by broken glass or burned by escaping steam, coffee, or coffee grounds. Health o meter has received 43 reports of the filter holder dislodging, which resulted in 3 reported injuries, including cuts and burns. Only model ECM9 Mr. Coffee espresso/cappuccino makers are involved in this recall. The model number is imprinted on the bottom of the machines' base. The black plastic and metal espresso/cappuccino makers measure 13 inches long by 7.5 inches wide by 10.25 inches high. The filter holder is made entirely of black plastic, and the machines come with a 4-cup glass carafe. Since many espresso/cappuccino makers are similar in appearance, consumers should check the model number to see if their machines are part of this recall. The espresso/cappuccino makers are packaged in a carton labeled in part, "Mr. Coffee Steam Espresso/Cappuccino Maker ECM9." Labeling on the carton is written in both English and French. The carton displays a picture of the espresso/cappuccino maker. Various retail stores sold the espresso/cappuccino makers nationwide from September 1996 through February 1997 for about $40. Consumers should immediately stop using the model ECM9 Mr. Coffee espresso/cappuccino makers. Consumers should contact Sunbeam Products, Inc. at (800) 672-6333 for assistance (Mr. Coffee is no longer owned by Health o meter, Inc., but Sunbeam Products, Inc. has now taken over in responding to questions about this recall). Consumers should have their espresso/cappuccino makers available at the time of the call to verify the model number.
