OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wash the Percolator thoroughly before using for the first time.
(See "CARE AND CLEANING" section in this manual.)
2. Remove Lid, Basket, Spreader and Pump Tube. Use cold, fresh tap
water to fill Percolator. Fill according to markings on inside of
Percolator for number of cups desired. Use cold tap water — the
automatic brewing cycle is timed to begin with a cold water start.
NOTE: The bottom of the Pump Tube Spring marks the
maximum capacity of the Percolator.
3. Wet Coffee Basket to help keep small particles of coffee from sifting
through. Place Basket on Pump Tube. Add desired amount of
regular or percolator grind coffee to Basket.
The following chart suggests amount of coffee for different brew
strengths; amounts can be varied to suit personal taste and
particular coffees.

4. Place Pump Tube with Basket into Percolator so bottom of tube is set
into Center Well. Place Spreader on top of Basket and snap Lid
onto Percolator. Attach cord to Percolator and plug into standard
household 120 volt AC wall outlet. Brewing begins within seconds
and continues at a cup-a-minute speed.
5. When coffee brewing is complete, percolating will stop. The
Percolator automatically switches to "KEEP WARM" setting to
preserve fresh-tasting coffee at hot, ready-to-serve temperature. For
best flavor, remove Coffee Basket, Spreader and Pump Tube when
brewing is completed.
