ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
L2 RED
L1 BLACK
200, 230 or
240V A.C.
CAUTION - Do not connect the brewer to the power source until specified in Initial Set-Up.
MODELS OL15 & 20 require
2-wire, grounded service rated
120 volts ac, 15 or 20 amp respectively, single phase, 60 Hz.
MODELS OL35 & RL35 require
3-wire, grounded service rated
120/208 or 120/240 volts ac, 20
amp, single phase, 60 Hz.
Electrical Hook-Up
Model OL15 has an attached cordset.
Models OL20, OL35, & RL35, proceed as follows:
CAUTION – Improper electrical installation will damage
electronic components.
1. An electrician must provide electrical service as
specified.
2. Using a voltmeter, check the voltage and
color coding of each conductor at the electrical
source.
3. Remove the top panel and rotate the control
thermostat knob fully counterclockwise to the
“OFF” position and replace the panel.
4. Remove the rear panel, feed the cord through
the strain relief, and connect it to the terminal
block.
5. Connect the brewer to the power source and
verify the voltage at the terminal block before
proceeding. Replace the rear panel.
6. If plumbing is to be hooked-up later be sure the
brewer is disconnected from the power source.
If Plumbing has been hooked-up, the brewer is
ready for Initial Set-Up.
PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
This brewer must be connected to a cold water
system with operating pressure between 20 and 90
psi from a 1/2” or larger supply line. A shut-off valve
should be installed in the line before the brewer. Install
a regulator in the line when pressure is greater than
90 psi to reduce it to 50 psi. The water inlet fitting is
1/4” flare.
ed service rated 240 volts ac
or 200 volts ac, 20 amp single
phase, 50 Hz.
MODEL OL25B requires
2-wire, grounded service
rated 100 volts ac, 20 amp
single phase, 50 Hz.
NOTE - Bunn-O-Matic recommends 1/4” copper tubing
for installations of less than 25 feet and 3/8” for more
than 25 feet from the 1/2” water supply line. A tight
coil of copper tubing in the water line will facilitate
moving the brewer to clean the counter top. Bunn-OMatic does not recommend the use of a saddle valve
to install the brewer. The size and shape of the hole
made in the supply line by this type of device may
restrict water flow.
This equipment must be installed to comply with
the International Plumbing Code of the International
Code Council and the Food Code Manual of the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA). For models installed
outside the U.S., you must comply with the applicable
Plumbing/Sanitation Code for your area.

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS (Cont.)
Plumbing Hook-Up
Model OL15 has an attached water strainer, proceed to step 2.
Models OL20, OL35, & RL35, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the rear panel and bottom pan. Run the long piece of tubing from the strainer (supplied) under
the brewer and attach it to the water inlet fitting on the bottom bracket. Reinstall the bottom pan and rear
panel.
2. Flush the water line and securely attach it to the 1/4” flare fitting on the strainer.
3. Turn on the water supply.
INITIAL SETUP
CAUTION - The brewer must be disconnected from the power source throughout the initial setup, except when
specified in the instructions.
1. Remove the top panel.
2. Rotate the control thermostat knob fully counterclockwise to the “OFF” position and replace the
panel.
3. Insert an empty funnel into the funnel rails.
4. Place a decanter containing a small amount of
water on the warmer beneath the funnel.
5. Connect the brewer to the power source, place
the On/Off brew station warmer switch the upper position, and momentarily press the start
switch. Water will begin flowing into the tank.
When water stops flowing into the tank, initiate a
second and a third brew cycle. During this third
brew cycle the tank will fill to its capacity and the
excess will flow from the sprayhead, out of the
funnel, and into the decanter.
NOTE - The On/Off brew station warmer switch must
be in the upper position to initiate and complete a
brew cycle.
6. Place the On/Off brew station warmer switch in
the lower position.
7. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
8. Remove the top panel.
9. Rotate the control thermostat knob fully clockwise
to the “ON” position and replace the panel.
10. Connect the brewer to the power source and wait
approximately twenty minutes for the water in the
tank to heat to the proper temperature. Some
water will drip from the funnel during this time;
this is due to expansion and should not occur
thereafter.
11. Place an empty decanter under the funnel.
12. Place the On/Off brew station warmer switch in
the upper position and momentarily press the
start switch. Empty the decanter after water has
stopped flowing from the funnel.
13. Allow the water in the tank to reheat to the proper
temperature.
14. Place an empty decanter on the warmer and press
the start switch. Check the water volume in the
decanter after water has stopped flowing from
the funnel. It should be 64 ounces.
15. If not, disconnect the brewer from the power
source and remove the top panel.
16. Add or remove washers to the float on the level
switch as required. Adding washers increases the
volume, removing washers decreases it. Replace
the top panel, connect the brewer to the power
source, start, and measure another brew cycle.
17. Repeat steps 13-16 until 64 oz water volume is
achieved.

COFFEE BREWING
Start each brew cycle with an empty, clean, half-gallon decanter.

2. Pour the fresh coffee into the filter and level the bed of grounds by gently shaking.
3. Slide the funnel into the funnel rails.
4. Place the On/Off brew station warmer switch in the upper position.
5. Momentarily press the start switch.
6. When brewing is completed, simply discard the grounds and filter.
CLEANING
1. The use of a damp cloth rinsed in any mild, non-abrasive, liquid detergent is recommended for cleaning all
surfaces on Bunn-O-Matic equipment.
2. Check and clean the sprayhead. The sprayhead holes must always remain open.
3. With the sprayhead removed, insert the deliming spring (provided) all the way into the sprayhead tube.
When inserted properly, no more than two inches of spring should be visible. Saw back and forth five or six
times.
NOTE - In hard water areas, this may need to be done daily. It will help prevent liming problems in the brewer
and takes less than a minute.
