Klarstein coffee maker leaks coffee or water around the carafe area onto the warming plate.

Safety first: Unplug and allow the plate and carafe to cool before handling.

Check carafe and lid:

• Inspect the glass carafe for hairline cracks, especially near the spout.
• Examine the lid gasket for deformation, hardening, or tears.
• Ensure the lid is fully locked onto the carafe and that the carafe is centered under the drip outlet.

Brewing practices:

• Do not exceed the maximum coffee and water levels recommended by Klarstein.
• Use the correct grind size to avoid filter overflow.

Replace the carafe or lid if any damage is found.
