How to Make Coffee

1.To remove lid, push down on glass knob and turn counter- clockwise until locking tabs completely clear handles on each side of removable tank, then lift up.

2.Take out coffee basket and stem assembly.

3.Unlock removable tank from base by pulling up on tank locking clips. Remove tank from the base.

4.Do not immerse tank in water. Fill with tap water to the level on Coffee Level Indictor for desired number of cups. You must brew a minumum of 10 cups. Coffee urn will make up to 60 cups. DO NOT OVERFILL COFFEE URN.

NOTE: For best results, always use cold, fresh tap water.

Always keep water and coffee amounts between minimum and maximum for your urn size.

NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground specifically for use in a percolator-typecoffee maker. However, coffee marked “For All Coffee Makers” is acceptable. If using a coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may cause the coffee bas- ket to overflow and result in grounds in coffee.

7.Place stem assembly, spring side up, into tank. Make sure stem assembly is properly seated in heat well or urn may not percolate. Place coffee basket on stem assembly.

8.Place lid on tank so that locking tabs are at front and back of urn.

9.Holding glass knob, turn lid clockwise until locking tabs are fully engaged inside the fold down handles on both sides of urn.

10.Plug in urn. Turn ON/OFF switch to ON/I position. The red ON indicator light will illuminate and coffee will begin brewing within seconds. Do not plug in urn when there is no water or liquid inside.

11.When brewing cycle is complete, percolation stops and green READY indicator light illuminates to indicate coffee is ready to serve.
