ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION - The dispenser must be disconnected from the power source until specified in Electrical Hook-Up.
The dispenser can be wired to a 120V, 2 wire with ground.
Refer to the dispenser’s dataplate for exact voltage requirements.
ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP
CAUTION – Improper electrical installation will damage electronic components.

2. Using a voltmeter, check the voltage and color coding of each conductor at the electrical source.
3. Connect the dispenser to the power source.
4. Place the main power switch in the "ON" position.
5. If plumbing is to be hooked-up later be sure the dispenser is disconnected from the power source. If plumb-
ing has been hooked-up, the dispenser is ready for Initial Fill & Heat.
PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
This dispenser must be connected to a cold water system with operating pressure between 20 and 100 psi (138
and 690 kPa). This water source must be capable of producing a minimum flow rate of 4.5 fl. oz. (133.1 ml) per
second. A shut-off valve should be installed in the line before the dispenser. Install a regulator in the line when
pressure is greater than 100 psi (690 kPa) to reduce it to 50 psi (345 kPa). The water inlet fitting is .25" (9.52
mm) flare.
NOTE - At least 18 inches (457 mm) of an FDA approved flexible beverage tubing, such as reinforced braided
polyethylene or silicone, before the dispenser will facilitate movement to clean the countertop. Bunn-O-Matic
does not recommend the use of a saddle valve to install the dispenser. The size and shape of the hole made in
the supply line by this type of device may restrict water flow.
As directed in the International Plumbing Code of the International Code Council and the Food
Code Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), this equipment must be installed with
adequate backflow prevention to comply with federal, state and local codes. For models installed
outside the U.S.A., you must comply with the applicable Plumbing /Sanitation Code for your area.
NOTE - If a backflow prevented is required by code, a shock arrestor should be installed between backflow preventer
and dispenser. Installing the shock arrestor as close to the dispenser as possible will provide the best results.
NOTE - Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply shall be sized, installed
and maintained in accordance with federal, state and local codes.
PLUMBING HOOK-UP
1. Flush the water line and securely attach it to the flare fitting on the bottom of the dispenser.

INITIAL FILL & HEAT
1. Turn on the water supply and connect the dispenser to the power source.
2. Water will automatically flow into the tank to the proper level and then shut-off. This will take less than ten
minutes.
3. A tank full of cold water will take approximately fifty minutes for the water to heat at 120 volts, approximately
15 minutes at 240 volts.
4. Fill the hoppers with the dry product to be dispensed. Hot chocolate in the left hopper, powder milk product
in the right hopper.
5. The LED display on the control panel behind the door splash panel will alternately display the tank water
temperature and the cold shoe temperature.
LIQUID LEVEL CONTROL
The system automatically maintains the hot water tank’s level by energizing the refill solenoid when the water
level drops below the liquid level probe. If the system has not successfully refilled in 15 minutes, a refill error
occurs. When a refill error occurs, the refill solenoid is de-energized. Once the cause of the refill error has been
investigated and cured, the system can be reset by both disconnecting (for at least 5 seconds) and then reconnecting the power to the machine.
RINSE ALARM FEATURE
Periodic rinsing of the mix chambers and dispense tips is essential for proper maintenance and optimum performance of the dispenser. The dispenser is shipped from the factory with the rinse timer enabled.
The rinse timer automatically keeps track of the time since the dispenser was last run through a rinse sequence.
If the dispenser detects that a rinse sequence has not been run for the desired time, all LEDs’ on the membrane
switch on the front door will flash, and "RINSE" will be displayed on the LED display behind the door splash
panel.
Rinse Procedure:
1. Open the front door and place the Normal/Program/Rinse switch in the RINSE position.
2. Place a large container under the dispense nozzle. Press any dispense button on the front door. The LED
display above the programming buttons will begin counting down from 8. The rinse will terminate when the
display reaches “0”.
3. Return the Normal/Program/Rinse switch to the NORMAL position, and close the front door.
EMPTY PRODUCT WARNING
The dispenser will automatically illuminate the LED next to the Decaf or Hot Chocolate button when the Decaf
or Regular coffee BIB is empty, respectively. The Refill message is triggered when conductance sensor reading
drops below the minimum setting. The factory set minimum is 450 and should be correct for many locations.
However, in some areas the hardness of the local water supply will affect this reading. It is recommended that
the Empty Product Threshold be calibrated upon installation for proper operation of the Empty Product Warning.
See "Field Calibrating the Empty Product Warning" in the Calibration section of this manual.

The pumps and tubing used in the dispenser are designed to give maximum performance and long life. However,
the tubes are a wear item and must be replaced periodically. How long the tube last is dependent on usage and
properties of the concentrate. Excessive wear will reduce the output of the pumps resulting in a weak mixed
beverage. Bunn-O-Matic recommends replacing the Pump Tubing a minimum of once every 6 months or
sooner if warranted.
Refer to the Tube Replacement Instruction inside the Cabinet door.
Note: To avoid concentrate spills, rinse the pump tubing with warm tap water prior to removing the tubes, (Refer
to steps 1 - 4 of the Weekly Sanitizing instructions).
1. Disconnect pump tube connector from product box by turning connector counterclockwise. Repeat for other
pump and product box.
2. Remove product box from product shelf, and remove product shelf from machine by sliding forward.
3. Refer to INSTALLING PUMP TUBING, page 8.

Field Calibration of the Concentrate Pumps, Dispenser Flow Rates,
and Hopper Powder Throw
The factory set default values for the Pump & Dispenser Flow Rates are very accurate and typically do not need
to be field calibrated. However, if the mix ratio accuracy is ever in question, this procedure can be used to recalibrate the unit in the field. Equipment Required:
50 or 100 ml graduated cylinder, with 1 ml graduations.
1000 ml graduated container.
NOTE: You can calibrate either the Concentrate Pump, Dispenser Flow Rate and set the Hopper Throw Rate independently. Simply scroll through the menu screen to the desired section and perform only those steps. (Refer
to Calibrating the Dispenser)
Calibrating the Concentrate Pumps.
Decaf Coffee - Concentrate Pump Calibration
1. Open the door of the dispenser and select PROGRAM on the Mode Selector Switch.
2. Depress and Hold the MENU switch for approximately 10 sec. The unit will display “C1 run” when it has
entered the Calibration Mode.
3. Select PRIME on the Function Selector Switch.
4. Remove the elbow from the Left (Decaf) Coffee Mixing Chamber and place a container under the mixing
chamber outlet. Press the SMALL cup button. The dispenser will display a 100 count down and then shut
the pump OFF automatically. Release the dispense switch.
5. Stop priming and allow the tip to stop dripping. Discard the concentrate collected.
6. Place a 50 ml graduated cylinder under the Left (Decaf) Coffee Mixing Chamber outlet.
7. Press the SMALL cup button. The dispenser will display a 100 count down and then shut the pump OFF
automatically. Release the dispense switch.
8. Keep the graduated cylinder under dispense tip until all the concentrate has dripped out.
9. Measure the volume of concentrate collected in the graduated cylinder.
The acceptable range for the volume of concentrate collected is 40 - 48 ml
10. If the amount collected is not within the acceptable range, empty the graduated cylinder and repeat STEPS
6 – 9.
11. If the amount collected is still not within range, replace the pump tubing with a new Tube Kit, (refer to the
Tube Replacement Instructions).
12. When satisfied with the volume of concentrate collected, press the MENU switch. The current Calibration
volume “C1 XX” will be displayed.
13. Use the (-) / (+) keys to adjust number displayed to the amount measured in STEP 9.

Hold the MENU switch for approximately 10 sec. The unit will display “C1 run” when it has entered the Calibration Mode
2. Press the MENU button to display the Decaf Coffee Flow Rate calibration menu “C3 run”
3. Reconnect the elbow to the Left (Decaf) Coffee Mixing Chamber outlet. Place a container under Dispense Tip
and depress the SMALL cup button. A steady stream of water comes out the tip (20 seconds).
4. Allow the tip to stop dripping. Discard the water collected
5. Place a 1000 ml graduated container under Dispense Tip.
6. Press the DECAF dispense button. The dispenser will display a 20 second count down timer and then stop
dispensing automatically.
7. Keep the graduated container under dispense tip until all the water stops dripping.
8. Measure the volume of water collected in the graduated container.
The acceptable range for the volume of water collected is .39 - .43 liters
9. If the amount of water collected is not within the acceptable range, empty the graduated container and repeat
STEPS 5 – 8.
10. If the amount collected is still not within range, inspect the dispense valves, tubing and mix chamber for
lime, kinks or other obstructions.
11. When satisfied with the volume of water collected, press the MENU switch. The current Water Calibration
volume “C3 XX” will be displayed.
12. Use the (-) / (+) keys to adjust number displayed to the amount measured in STEP 8.
Regular Coffee - Dispenser Flow Rate Calibration
Depress the MENU button to display the Regular Coffee Flow Rate calibration menu “C4 run”.
Repeat STEPS 3 – 12 above for the right side Regular dispense valve, using the LARGE cup button.
Field Calibrating the Empty Product Warning
The dispenser will automatically illuminate the LED next to the Decaf or Hot Chocolate button when the Decaf or
Regular coffee BIB is empty. The Refill message is triggered when the conductance sensor reading drops below
the minimum setting. The factory set minimum is 450 and should be correct for many locations. However, in
some areas the harness of the local water supply will affect this reading. If the Refill message doesn’t come on
when the container is empty, or the message comes on too early and there is still concentrate in the container,
use the following procedure to find the correct Empty Product Threshold.
Calibrating The Empty Product Threshold
1. Remove the coffee concentrate BIB(s) from the Unit
2. Open the dispenser door to access the digital programming module with LED
3. Place a large container under the dispenser tip.
4. Place the NORMAL/PROGRAM/RINSE switch into the RINSE position
5. Press any dispense button on the door. The unit will automatically rinse for eight seconds. Repeat until the
water exiting the coffee nozzle is running clear.
6. Place the NORMAL/PROGRAM/RINSE switch into the RUN position.
7. Press the LARGE and the BLACK COFFEE button. Observe the numbers display on the LED panel, the
conductance reading will be displayed. (NOTE: It is typical for this number to fluctuate (+/-25) about the
nominal value.) This is the conductance of the water in your area. Record this reading.
8. Repeat steps six and seven, only pressing LARGE, DECAF and BLACK COFFEE button. Record this reading.
22
39328.3 101513
9. Install the coffee BIB’s into the unit, and prime the pumps. Dispense several cups of both regular coffee and
Decaf coffee. If either one or both the DECAF and HOT CHOCOLATE LED illuminates during this process
and dispensing is disabled, the EMPTY PRODUCT WARNING can be reset by priming the appropriate pump
momentarily.
10. After several cups of both coffees have been dispensing, dispense both a REGULAR coffee and a DECAF
coffee. Observe the conductivity reading for each, and record.
11. Take the average of the largest reading from steps seven and eight with the lowest reading from step ten,
and enter this new value in the Empty BIB threshold position, “P10 XXX”, see Programming the dispenser.
Example, if the conductance readings with water from steps six and seven are 225 and 250, and the conductance readings with coffee from step ten is 355 and 370, you would average 250 and 355, and enter “302”
for the empty BIB threshold in “P10 XXX”.
Field Adjustment of Powder Hoppers
The powder throw for the powder products is pre-set from the factory. It can be checked and adjusted in the
field using this calibration procedure.
Adjusting the Hopper Throw Weight
1. Open the dispenser door to access the digital programming module with LED.
2. Remove the mixing chamber below the hopper outlet elbow.
3. Select PROGRAM on the Function Selector Switch, and NORMAL for the Mode Selector Switch.
4. Press the MENU button to display the Left Hopper Motor calibration menu “04 run”
5. Hold a container under the hopper outlet elbows, and press any beverage button on the front door.
6. The left hopper will run automatically for 10 second, and then stop.
7. Weight the contents of the container. Divide by 10 to determine grams or ounce per second of throw.
8. Press the MENU button to increment the display to menu “O4 XXX”. The number displayed is the power
level drive of the hopper motor. The power level can be increased or decreased by pressing (-) or (+) button.
Each increment is equal to approximately a 1% increase or decrease in hopper motor speed.
9. Press the MENU button to display the Right Hopper Motor calibration menu “05 run”.
10. Repeat steps 5 – 8 to measure and adjust the right hopper throw weight.
11. Replace the powder-mixing chamber, and return the Function Selector Switch to the RUN position.
