THERMOSAT ADJUSTMENT
The Cafe coffee brewer is factory set to 200ºF. The
brewer can be adjusted on the thermostat for a tank
temperature of either 200ºF or 190ºF.
To adjust:
1. Unplug the unit at the power cord.
2. Remove the back cover, held by four screws.
3. Locate the thermostat, attached to a bracket below
the top wrap. There will be a pair of contacts covered
with a black plug (see photo, right, 200ºF). This is
where the tank temperature selection is made. Re-
moving the black plug changes the setting to 190ºF.
Covering the contacts will return the setting to 200ºF.
To avoid losing the small black cover, slip the cover
over one of the contacts as shown in photo at right.
4. Return cover to the back of the unit and plug electrical
cord into the power outlet.

CLEANING
Regular cleaning of your Curtis Cafe coffee brewer will maintain the highest quality coffee your equipment is capable of producing. Proper
cleaning is essential in maintaining the fresh and appealing appearance of your coffee service.
1. First turn off the brewer, unplugging the cord at the power outlet.
2. Avoid touching hot surfaces. Allow the warmer plates to cool.
CAUTION - Do not use cleansers, liquid bleach, powders or any other substance that contains chlorine. These products promote cor-
rosion and will pit the stainless steel. THE USE OF THESE PRODUCTS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
3. Wipe all exterior surfaces with a damp cloth, removing spills and debris.
4. Slide the brewcone out and clean it. Thoroughly wipe sprayhead area with a damp cloth.
5. Wash the brewcone and wire brew basket, if applicable. Use a soft bristled brush for hard to clean areas. Wash both parts with a detergent
solution or put these parts through a dishwasher.
6. Wash glass decanters with dish soap. To remove mineral deposits, soak with vinegar.
7. Dry all exterior surfaces of the unit with a clean soft cloth to keep water from spotting the cabinet.
NOTE - Polish the outside stainless steel surfaces with stainless steel polish after drying. This will prevent surface scratches and result in a
cleaner appearance.
De-liming
Every six months, more often in areas with extremely hard water, the inside of the heating tank should be de-limed.
CAUTION - The de-liming procedure must be performed by a qualified service technician.
