CAUTION: Please
use this setup
procedure before attempting to
use this brewer. Failure to
follow the instructions can
result in injury or the voiding of
the warranty .
SETUP STEPS
CAUTION - This brewer is shipped with the thermostat turned ON. DO NOT plug in the power cord
until the heating tank has filled with water (see step 4, below); damage to the heating element or
thermostat will result.
1. Placement of brewer should be on a solid,
level counter top, near a 120 VAC outlet
rated at 20 amps.
2. Place an empty glass decanter on the
warmer deck, under the sprayhead.
3. Insert an empty brewcone into the brew
rails unit (fig. 1.).
4. Pour water into the pour hole on top of
brewer. When water starts to come from
the brewcone, the tank is full. Stop
pouring.
5. Plug power cord into a 120V electrical
outlet (reference ladder diagrams on page 3).
6. Allow the brewer to heat up to it’s full temperature, indicated by Ready to Brew light.
This takes about 15 to 25 minutes the first time the coffee brewer
is plugged in. Slight dripping from the brewcone is normal as the
tank heats up. The unit is ready for brewing.

BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Pour ground coffee evenly into filter and insert into brewer.
2. Slide brew cone into guide rails (fig. 1.). Place clean decanter
on warmer plate (use airpot when brewing with Café AP).
Figure 2. Pour ground
coffee into filter.
4. Switch on the warmer plates to keep the coffee at serving
temperature.
NOTE: You should have at least two decanters for brewing coffee.
One for pouring water, the other to brew coffee into. Airpot brewers
will require a pitcher that holds 74 ounces (see figure 3).
NOTE: Due to evaporation, water may be lost from the tank if brewer is
left on for long periods of time without making coffee. When this occurs,
pour in enough water to refill the heating tank before brewing.
This appliance is designed for commercial use. Any servicing other than cleaning and
maintenance should be performed by an authorized Wilbur Curtis service center.
• Do NOT immerse the unit in water or any other liquid
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do NOT open top panel. No user ser-
viceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
3. Take another decanter and pour water into the hole on the top
cover (fig. 3.). Brewing will take about three minutes.

water into pour hole.
