Model AT-3W/AT-3WE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1) Place the decanter under brew basket, raise top evaporation cover and pour three decanters of water through the
top pour-in opening. Water should come through the brew basket as the third decanter of water drains out of the
pour-in basin.
2) Brewer is shipped with thermostat turned on, (full clockwise position). Plug brewer into a dedicated, grounded
120V/15A circuit (230V/15A circuit for E models).
3) Allow 10-15 minutes for water in tank to heat to brewing temperature. (Hot water may drip from brew basket on
initial thermal expansion of water in the tank). This will not occur thereafter.
4) After water has reached brewing temperature (thermostat will click off, heating noise will stop and green ready light
will be on) pour 1 decanter (60 oz./1.8L) of water through pour-in opening. Machine is now ready to use.
5) Pour 1 decanter of water through pour-in opening to check for proper temperature setting with an accurate
thermometer. Take the temperature of this water at a point below the brew basket opening at the start of the brew
cycle and when the decanter is half full. Recommended temperature of the water is approximately 195°F (91°C) .
6) In higher altitude locations (5,000 feet/1,500m above sea level) the thermostat may have to be adjusted lower to
prevent boiling.
WARNING - Read and follow installation instructions before plugging or wiring in machine to electrical circuit.
Warranty will be void if unit is connected to any voltage other than that listed on the name plate.
FILL BREWER TANK WITH WATER BEFORE CONNECTION TO POWER SUPPLY
WATER CONNECTION
The following is required for water hook-up:
1) A quick disconnect water connection or enough coiled tubing so the machine can be moved for cleaning
underneath. ( required for NSF approved water hook-up )
2) A 1/4" male flare adapter is provided to be attached by the installer to the back of the machine for hook-up to
water supply.
3) Installation to a water filter system is required to prevent lime and scale build up in the machine.
4) Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to potable water supply shall be sized, installed, and
maintained in accordance with Federal, State, and Local codes. ( required for NSF approved water hook-up )
5) Equipment is to be installed with adequate backflow protection to comply with applicable Federal, State,
and local codes. ( required for NSF approved water hook-up )
Minimum water pressure to the machine: 30 psi (2.0 bar)
Maximum water pressure to the machine: 80 psi (5.6 bar)

COFFEE PREPARATION PROCEDURES (Pour-Over Mode)
1) Place filter into brew basket.
2) Put the proper amount of coffee into the filter.
3) Slide the brew basket into holder.
4) Place empty decanter on warmer located directly under the brew basket and turn corresponding warmer switch ON.
NOTE: For airpots, open airpot lid, remove pump stem from airpot and place airpot opening directly under center hole
in brew basket.
5) Pour decanter of fresh water through pour-in opening at top of brewer.
6) Hot water will be delivered through the sprayhead. This distributes the hot water evenly over the coffee bed within
the brew basket. The coffee will drain from brew basket into the container below.
7) TURN OFF WARMER WHEN NOT IN USE. (Red light indicates warmer is ON.) Not for airpot brewers.
8) Before brewing next pot, remove brew basket from brew rails and dump filter into waste basket.
