Fill the urn with water to "MAX" level, boil, discard the water, and then rinse. Repeat the procedure several times to remove any dust, residue, etc., from the urn.

Always use the coffee urn on a flat level surface.
Remove cover, filter basket and pump tube. Fill with COLD WATER to desired amount on water gauge. Do not fill more than the MAX mark or operate when the level is below the MIN mark. Capacity = up to 25 cups.
Insert pump tube firmly into the heating element at bottom of the urn body then place filter basket on tube.
Add coffee grounds evenly into filter basket. (1 Tbsp = 1 cup or to taste).
Place cover on urn body and turn clockwise to lock into place.
Check power switch is OFF position. Plug cord into grounded 120V. electric outlet. Press power switch ON, the red HEATING light will turn on to indicate start of brew cycle.
When finished brewing. (about 20 to 45 minutes or until you can no longer hear noise from the pump) remove coffee basket and grounds.
- This helps maintain coffee flavor.
- The urn's cover can be used as a carrying tray when disposing of wet coffee grounds.
NEVER OPERATE WHILE EMPTY. This can damage the heating element and void warranty.
To serve coffee, place cup under spigot then lift or press spigot handle to serve.
When coffee in tank is down to the min water mark, turn the appliance off and unplug it from the electric outlet.

"BOIL DRY" SAFETY FEATURE

Boil dry is the result of boiling all the liquid out of the urn. To prevent boil dry accidents, this appliance is equipped with a thermal protector with an automatic reset. If the liquid in the tank is completely boiled away, the appliance will automatically turn off. Empty and let the urn cool down about half an hour and then try another brew cycle. Operators are advised to turn the appliance off and unplug when not in use, especially overnight.

CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Before cleaning, turn off any switches and ensure the power cord is removed from the electrical outlet and allow appliance to cool.
Empty remaining liquid by removing cover, basket and pump tube and slowly pour liquid into drain.
Wipe the outside area with a damp cloth and dry with a lint-free cloth.
Never place appliance in water or other liquids.
Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
Allow to dry before storage.
Some water has higher mineral content that can discolor the inside of the urn body. To remove these stains, fill to desired level with COLD WATER and several tablespoons of vinegar or cream of tartar powder. Allow to heat for one BREW cycle, then turn power OFF and remove plug from wall outlet. Drain solution, rinse and clean as noted above.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Short Cord Instructions: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
