Using your Percolator
1. Before using for the first time, thoroughly wash all parts of the percolator. Please see Cleaning and Maintenance Instruction section.
2. Remove cover, basket, lid and pump tube with spring. Using the measurement markings (located inside
the body) fill the percolator with the desired amount of water. Please note 10 is the maximum fill line.
For best result be sure to use cold water when filling the percolator. When preparing 4-Cups, use the two
spot weld marking just below – 6 – as the 4-cup level mark.
3. To help keep small coffee grinds from sifting through the holes in the basket, run cold water over the
coffee basket. Place basket on top of pump tube. Add desired amount of coffe according to level markings
on basket. Be certain to usa a grind designed for percolator coffee, or use a coarse grind. Finer grinds
may sift through the holes in the basket.
The following chart serves asa guide for preparing various brew strenghts. Amounts can be varied to suit
personal taste and particular coffees.

4. Place basket and pump tube assembly into percolator so bottom of tube fits well. Place basket cover on top of basket and push cover onto top of
percolator.
CAUTION: When placing the lid onto the percolator, be sure that the steam outlets are always pointing away from the handle to avoid heat.
5 Please percolator on power base and plug base into a standard household wall outlet. The green power indicator light will illuminate. Brewing be-
gins within seconds, and continues at a rate of approximately one cup per minute.
6. Once brewing cycle is complete, the red led indicator will light and signal that your coffe is ready. WARNING: Be certain the percolator process has
stopped completely before removing the cover.
7. Once brewing has been completed, remove the cover carefully using a mitt or potholder, remove the basket and pump tube. Replace cover so it
snaps into place.
CAUTION: Do not touch the stainless steel parts of the percolator as they will be hot.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Always remove the percolator from the power base then remove the plug from the electrical outlet before attempting to clean the percolator. Remove
the percolator body from the power base. Make sure that the unit is sitting evenly on a flat surface. Grasp cover by percolator knob and gently pull the
cover straight up. Store with cover off.
Gently pull the basket, baset cover and the pump tube straight up out of the body. Take the lid off the basket and discard used coffe grinds. The per-
colator cover, basket, lid and pump tube can all be placed in the upper rack of a dishwasher or washed in warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly.
Never wash the percolator body or power base in dishwasher.
Do not immerse the detachable power base or percolator body in water or other liquid. To clean, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before
storing.
Do not use scouring agents or harsh cleaners on any part of the percolator. Note: Washer at bottom of pump tube must move freely. Should coffe
grounds become trapped near the washer, loosen with a tooth pick and run under tap water to clean.
Storage: The power-supply cord is attached to the power base. For a clutter free counter, unwrap only as much of the cord as needed to safely reach
the outlet. Remaining cord can stay wrapped underneath.
Decalcification
Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits which form on the metal parts parts of the percolator over time.
For the best performance from your percolator, decalcify the unit from time to time. The frequency depends on the hardness of your water and how
often you use the percolator. Decalcification will clean the interior of the unit.
