IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1.Read all instructions.
2.Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Care must be taken, as burns can occur from touching hot parts or from spilled, hot liquid.
3.To protect against fire, electric shock, and injury to persons do not place cord, plug or coffee urn in water or other liquid.
4.Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5.Unplug from outlet when either the coffee urn is not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.
6.Coffee urn must be operated on a flat surface away from the edge of counter to prevent accidental tipping.
7.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for information on examination, repair, or adjustment.
8.The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex, Inc. may result in fire, electrical shock or personal injury.
9.Do not use outdoors.
10.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including stove.
11.Be certain cover is securely in place during brew cycle and when serving coffee. Scalding may occur if cover is removed during brew cycle.
12.Do not place coffee urn on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
13.Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect coffee urn, remove plug from wall outlet, then unplug from coffee urn.
14.Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove the bottom cover. No user serviceable parts are inside. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.
15.Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
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. If your coffee urn has a 3-prong plug, and an extension cord is used, the extension cord must also be a grounded-type 3-wire cord. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the coffee urn. 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 your coffee urn.

NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground specifically for use in a percolator-type coffee maker. However, coffee marked “For All Coffee Makers” is acceptable. If using a coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may cause the coffee basket to overflow.
To Heat Water
Use heated water to make instant coffee, hot cocoa, or tea.
1.To heat water, remove cover, coffee basket and stem.
Fill coffee urn with cold water to desired level as indicated by numbered servings on inside of coffee urn.
2.Place stem into coffee basket then place large end of stem into heating unit well. (Using the stem and basket will speed heating time.)
3.Place cover onto coffee urn and turn to lock. Plug in coffee urn and let go through complete perk cycle. Water is hot when the Ready light glows.
How To Clean
1.After each use, unplug cord from outlet then remove cord from coffee urn. Let cool before cleaning. WARNING! Burn
Hazard. Allow urn and coffee to cool before cleaning.
2.Remove cover, coffee basket and stem. Wash in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry. These parts can also be placed in dishwasher. WARNING! Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not immerse cord, plug or urn in water or any other liquid.
3.Fill the coffee urn half full with hot water. Add a drop of liquid dishwashing detergent and wash the inside of the coffee urn. Use a scouring pad and clean the inside of the heating unit well. This part must be properly cleaned to maintain the proper operation of the coffee urn.
4.Drain the soapy water then fill the coffee urn with hot water to rinse. Open serving spout and let hot water flow through to clean the spout. Repeat with another hot water rinse then dry.
5.Clean outside of coffee urn with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers.
To Remove Mineral Deposits
and Build-Up
If the coffee urn is used daily follow these instructions every other week. Fill the coffee urn with 1 quart cold water and 1 quart white vinegar. Assemble with stem, coffee basket, and cover.
Plug in and let go through the perk cycle. When perking has stopped let sit another 15 minutes. Unplug and drain the coffee urn. Let cool then clean according to “How To Clean.”
To Remove Discoloration
To lighten discolored metal inside the coffee urn, fill the urn to the 42 cup level. Assemble with stem and coffee basket. Place 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon cream of tartar into basket (found in the spice section of supermarket). Place cover onto coffee urn.
Plug in and let go through the perk cycle. When perking has stopped let sit another 15 minutes. Unplug and drain the coffee urn. Let cool then clean according to “How To Clean.”
