PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
This brewer must be connected to a cold water system with operating pressure greater than 10 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.
NOTE - Bunn-O-Matic recommends 1/4" copper tubing for installations of less than 25 feet from the 1/2" or larger
supply line. A tight coil of copper tubing in the water line will facilitate moving the brewer to clean the counter
top. Bunn-O-Matic 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 Basic Plumbing Code of the Building Officials and Code Administrators International, Inc. (BOCA) and the Food Service
Sanitation Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Plumbing Hook-Up
1. Make certain that the 1/4" female flare fitting on the short tube from the outlet of the water strainer is securely
attached to the male bulkhead fitting on the brewer.
2. Flush the water line and securely attach it to the 1/4" flare fitting on the strainer.
3. Turn on the water supply.

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 brew funnel.
5. Connect the brewer to the power source and place the On/Lower switch in the upper position.
6. Momentarily press the start switch. Approximately 64 ounces of water will flow into the brew tank. T o fill the
tank, it will be necessary to start two more brew cycles. Place the On/Lower switch in the lower position
when water starts flowing form the funnel into the decanter.
7. Disconnect the brewer from the power source and remove the front panel.
8. Rotate the control thermostat knob fully clockwise to the "ON" position and replace the panel.
9. Connect the brewer to the power source and wait 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 .
10. Place an empty decanter under the funnel.
11. Place the On/Lower switch in the upper position and momentarily press the start switch. Empty the decanter
after water has stopped flowing from the funnel and return it to the warmer.
12. Allow the water in the tank to reheat to the proper temperature.
13. Momentarily press the start switch. Check the water volume in the decanter after water has stopped flowing
from the funnel. It should be 64 ounces.
14. If not, disconnect the brewer from the power source and remove the top lid.
15. Add or remove washers to the float on the level switch as required and replace the top lid. Adding washers
increases the volume, removing washers decreases it.
16. Repeat steps 12-15 until the proper water volume is achieved.

19. Press the hot water switch to dispense exactly 20 ounces of hot water and immediately start a brew cycle into
an empty graduated vessel.
20. Measure the brew water volume:
if it is more than the amount measured in #16, remove the rear panel, turn the needle valve slightly clockwise,
and replace the rear panel.
If it is less than the amount measured in #16, remove the rear panel, turn the needle valve slightly counterclockwise, and replace the rear panel.
21. Repeat steps 18-20 until the hot water refill rate is balanced with the dispense rate.
OPERATING CONTROLS
A. On/Lower Switch
Placing the switch in the upper position enables brewing and energizes the decanter warmer beneath the
funnel.
Placing the switch in the lower position cuts power to the warmer beneath the brew funnel and stops the
brew cycle. Stopping a brew cycle after it has been started will not stop the flow of water into the funnel until
the tank syphons down to its proper level.
B. Top Warmer Switch
Placing the switch in the upper position energizes the top warmer.
Placing the switch in the lower position cuts power to the top warmer.
C. Start Switch
Momentarily pressing this switch initiates a brew cycle when the On/Lower switch is in the upper position.
D. Hot Water Dispense Switch (Model SLF only)
Placing the switch in the lower position dispenses hot water and at the same time refills the tank. Dispensing/refilling occurs for as long as the switch is held.
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. Disconnect the brewer from the power source. Remove the sprayhead and 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.
COFFEE BREWING
1. Insert a BUNN® filter into the funnel .
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 an empty decanter under the brew funnel.
5. Place the On/Lower switch in the upper position and momentarily press the start switch.
6. When brewing is completed, simply discard the grounds and filter.

TROUBLESHOOTING
A troubleshooting guide is provided to suggest probable causes and remedies for the most likely problems
encountered. If the problem remains after exhausting the troubleshooting steps, contact the Bunn-O-Matic
Technical Service Department.
•Inspection, testing, and repair of electrical equipment should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
•All electric components have 120 volt ac voltage on their terminals. Shorting of terminals or the application
of external voltages may result in equipment failure.
•Intermittent operation of electronic equipment is unlikely. Component failure will normally be permanent. If
an intermittent condition is encountered, the cause will likely be a switch contact or a loose connection at a
terminal or crimp.
•Solenoid removal requires interrupting the water supply to the valve. Damage may result if solenoids are
energized for more than ten minutes without a supply of water.
•The use of two wrenches is recommended whenever plumbing fittings are tightened or loosened. This will
help to avoid twists and kinks in the tubing.
•Make certain that all plumbing connections are sealed and electrical connections tight and isolated.
•This brewer is heated at all times unless disconnected from the power source. Keep away from combustibles.
WARNING
•Exercise extreme caution when servicing electrical equipment.
•Disconnect the brewer from the power source when servicing, except when electrical tests are specified.
