INTRODUCTION
The Waring Pro™ Professional Coffee Urn is commercially rated, and it’s easy to see why. Built to higher performance standards than all other consumer units, it brews up to 55 five-ounce cups of coffee in under 35 minutes. Coffee quality is excellent, with a dual heater system that brews coffee at a hotter temperature to ensure maximum flavor. Once brewing is complete, the coffee is held at a lower temperature that’s ideal for drinking. With its shorter brew time, extra-large capacity, and classic stainless styling, this Professional Coffee Urn is perfect for all of your special events.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For your protection, Waring Pro™ Coffeemakers are equipped with a 3-conductor cordset that has a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug, and should be used in combination with a properly connected grounding-type outlet as shown in Figure
- If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an adapter, shown in Figure 2, may be obtained so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with a 3-prong plug. Referring to Figure 3, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate.
CAUTION : Before using an adapter, it must be deter-mined that the outlet cover plate screw is properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician. Never use an adapter unless you are sure it is properly grounded.
Note : Use of an adapter is not permitted in Canada.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used, (1) the
marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it
can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of fire or electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instruction in the literature accompanying the appliance.

BREWING COFFEE – IMPORTANT STEPS TO FOLLOW
-
Remove cover and brew basket. Check to see that spigot is closed. Use cold, fresh tap water to fill coffee urn. DO NOT OVERFILL OR UNDERFILL. Fill according to marking on inside of urn for number
of cups desired. Use cold tap water – the automatic brewing cycle is timed to begin with a cold water start.
NOTE: MINIMUM BREW VOLUME IS 25 CUPS. -
Wet the coffee basket to help keep small particles of coffee from sifting through. Add desired amount of REGULAR or PERCOLATOR GRIND COFFEE to basket. Use bottom of measuring cup to smooth out the grounds so you have a flat, even surface. Place basket on the pump tube. The pump tube must be resting correctly in center well in order for the unit to brew properly.
NOTE : Ground coffee quantities are printed on the side of the brew basket and on the following page for added convenience. The number of cups is based on the use of a standard dry measuring cup. -
Replace the urn cover and secure in position by turning cover clockwise.
-
Plug into standard household 120 volt AC wall outlet. To avoid unnecessary strain on the heating mechanism, PLUG IN COFFEE URN AFTER THE WATER AND COFFEE ARE ADDED.
-
When coffee brewing is complete, percolating will stop and the green indicator light will come on. The urn automatically switches to the “keep warm” setting to preserve fresh-tasting coffee at hot, ready-to-serve temperature.
-
Unplug urn when only 1 or 2 cups of coffee remain.
For best flavor, remove coffee basket and pump tube when brewing is completed.
REMOVE PARTS CAREFULLY: COFFEE URN AND PARTS WILL BE HOT!

Wash coffee urn with water and detergent. Never immerse base of urn. Rinse urn
thoroughly.
The cover, basket, and pump tube may be washed on top rack of dishwasher.
After repeated use: Accumulation of oil and coffee stains may cause a bitter taste. Remove these stains with a special cleanser such as Dip-It®. Follow package directions, filling with water to 11⁄2 inches from top. Rinse well.
To clean the sight glass tube, remove the sight glass cap and pull out glass tube. Remove the rubber caps from each end. Using the sight glass brush included, fill tube with water and liquid detergent and scrub the tube. This will sanitize the tube and remove any stains that may have built up. Rinse thoroughly.
