4. Remove thermobulb gland nut from tank cover. Withdraw
thermobulb from fitting. Discard thermostat assembly.
INSTALLATION:
1. Insert bulb well into fitting on tank cover. Be sure well is
fully seated in fitting.
2. Insert thermobulb into bulb well. Be sure bulb is inserted
to the extreme bottom of the well.
3. Carefully insert capillary seal components into tank fitting.
IMPORTANT: Tighten gland nut only enough to prevent
leaks. Over-tightening is not necessary.
4. Mount thermostat body to tank bracket. Reconnect wiring.
5. Reconnect brewer to electrical and water supplies.
Test brewer for proper operation.
Refer to page 2 for temperature adjustment procedure.
Upon completion, reinstall access panels.

SHOCK HAZARD
These procedures involve
exposed electrical circuits.
These procedures are to be
performed by qualified
technical personnel only.
NOTE:
Optimum brewing temperature
range is 195ºF to 205ºF (90ºC
to 96ºC).
IMPORTANT:
A mechanical thermostat will
maintain temperature within
±5ºF. To prevent boiling water
in the brewer, thermostat should
be adjusted to a maximum
temperature equal to the local
boiling temperature minus 5ºF.
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: This is a typical adjustment procedure for a standard
displacement brewer. Your exact procedure may vary depending
on the method of adding cold water to the water heater.
1. Disconnect brewer from electric power. Remove top panel.
2. Pull vent tube out of tank lid and insert a thermometer of
known accuracy in vent hole.

3. Place an empty container under brew chamber.
Reconnect brewer to electrical power. Energize brewer.
Press TANK HEATER switch ON where applicable.
4. Press BREW switch OR pour one decanter (64 oz.) of cold
water into pour-over opening. When READY TO BREW light
glows (or HEAT light goes dark), read temperature displayed
on thermometer.
5. Adjust thermostat by turning shaft;
clockwise increases temperature
counter-clockwise decreases temperature.
NOTE: 1/8 turn = approximately 10ºF.
Refer to Table 1 below for proper brewing temperature based
on altitude.
