To Make Coffee
BEFORE FIRST USE: Clean the coffee urn by following the steps
in "How to Clean."
1. To remove the lid, turn counterclockwise until the locking tabs
completely clear the handles on each side of the body; then
lift up. Take out the basket and pump tube with spring. For
best results, always fill with cold, fresh tap water to the level
indicator mark inside the body for the number of cups* desired.
Depending on your model, the coffee urn will make up to 40,
60, or 100 cups. DO NOT OVERFILL THE COFFEE URN.
*1 cup = 5 ounces
2. Wet the basket (this helps to keep small particles of coffee
grinds from sifting through). Use a standard dry measure cup
and tablespoon to add regular- or percolator-grind coffee to the
basket. The chart on page 6 suggests the amount of coffee for
regular brew. The amount of coffee can be varied to suit your
taste; use less for weaker coffee or more for stronger coffee.
3. Make sure the spring is on the pump tube; then place the
basket on the pump tube. Then, holding the top of the pump
tube, lower it into the coffee urn until the bottom of the pump
tube is properly seated in the heat well in the center (if not, the
coffee urn may not percolate).
4. Place the lid on the urn so that the locking tabs are at the front
and back of the coffee urn.
5. Turn the lid clockwise until the locking tabs are fully engaged
inside the handles on both sides of the coffee urn. Never plug
in the coffee urn without the lid in place and the locking tabs
fully engaged inside the handles.
6. Plug the coffee urn into a grounded, 3-prong, 120 V AC wall
outlet. The ON light will illuminate red and coffee brewing will
begin within seconds. The urn will begin to percolate within
8 minutes.
Do NOT plug in the coffee urn when there is no water or other
liquid inside.
