Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use.

WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This product is provided with either a polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized or grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards

of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounding type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

Coffee Tank Seal/Filter Assembly

Figure 2

How to Make Coffee

Remove lid, coffee basket, and stem assembly.

Fill urn to desired water level. You must brew a minimum of 10 cups. Do not fill urn above fill line.

BEFORE FIRST USE: Clean the urn by following the steps in "How To Clean."

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

Wet coffee basket (to help keep small particles of ground coffee from sifting through).

OPTIONAL: Place a flattened, paper filter in coffee basket.

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

Make sure stem assembly is properly seated in heat well in center or urn may not percolate.

Water Level*	Amount of Ground Coffee*
40 cups	2-21/2 cups
30 cups	13/4-2 cups
20 cups	1-13/4 cups
10 cups	1/2 cup

NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground specifically for use in a percolator-type coffeemaker. However, coffee marked "For All Coffeemakers" is acceptable. If using a coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a coarse grind. Finely ground coffee may cause the basket to overflow and result in grounds in the coffee.

How to Make Coffee (cont.)

Do not spill coffee grounds in stem assembly.

Replace lid.

NOTICE: To avoid damage, do not plug in when there is no liquid inside.

The coffee urn will stop automatically when the coffee has finished brewing, and the ready light will glow. Allow about 1 minute per cup for brewing time.
