BREWERS
CAUTION – Disconnect the power source from the brewer prior to the removal of any panel for the replacement or adjustment of any component. NOTE: Check that the brewer is connected to water supply, the tank is properly filled, and a funnel and server are in place, prior to setting or modifying batch sizes.
1. Modifying batch sizes. To modify a batch volume, first check that the SET/
LOCK switch is in the “SET position on the circuit board. If the brewer has a batch selector switch, position it to the size to be changed. To increase a batch size, Press and hold the START or BREW switch until three clicks are heard. Release the switch and then press it again one or more times. Each time the switch is pressed, two seconds are added to the brew time period. Allow the brew cycle to finish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved. To decrease a batch size, Press and release the START or BREW switch once for every two-second interval to be removed from the total brew time period; then immediately press and hold down the START or BREW switch until three clicks are heard. Release the switch. Allow the brew cycle to finish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
2. Setting batch sizes. To set a batch volume, first check that the SET/LOCK
switch is in the “SET” position on the circuit board. Press and hold the START or BREW switch until three distinct clicks are heard (this will take approximately ten seconds), and then release the switch. (Failure to re­lease the switch within two seconds from the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted). View the level of the liquid being dispensed. When the desired level is reached, turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF. The brewer remembers this volume and will continue to brew batches of this size until the volume setting procedure is repeated. Empty server(s), turn selector switch to positions that have yet to be set, and repeat batch setting proce­dure until all batch sizes are set.
NOTE: When brewing coffee, batch volumes will decrease due to absorption by

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
These brewers must be connected to a cold water system with operating pressure between 20 (138) and 90 psi (620 kPa) 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 (620 kPa) to reduce it to 50 psi (345 kPa). The water inlet fi tting is 1⁄4" fl are.
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 countertop. 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 fl ow.
This equipment must be installed to comply with the Basic Plumbing Code of the Building Offi cials and Code Administrators International, Inc. (BOCA) and the Food Service Sanitation Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For models installed outside the U.S.A., you must comply with the applicable Plumbing/Sanitation Code for your area.
1. Remove the shipping cap from the bulkhead fi tting on the rear of the brewer.

ADJUSTING BREW VOLUMES
CAUTION - Disconnect the power source from the brewer prior to the removal of any panel for the replacement
or adjustment of any component. NOTE: Prior to setting or modifying batch sizes, check that the brewer is connected to water supply, the tank is properly fi lled, and a funnel and server are in place.
1. Modifying batch sizes. To modify a batch volume, fi rst check that the SET/LOCK switch is in the "SET" posi- tion on the circuit board.
To increase a batch size. Press and hold the START or BREW switch until three clicks are heard. Release
the switch (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory) and press it again one or more times. Each time the switch is pressed, two seconds are added to the brew time period. Allow the brew cycle to fi nish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
To decrease a batch size. Press and release the START or BREW switch once for every two-second interval
to be removed from the total brew time period; then immediately press and hold down the START or BREW switch until three clicks are heard. Release the switch. (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory). Allow the brew cycle to fi nish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
2. Setting batch sizes. To set a batch volume, fi rst check that the SET/LOCK switch is in the "SET" position on the circuit board. Press and hold the START or BREW switch until three distinct clicks are heard, and then release the switch. (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory). View the level of the liquid being dispensed. When the desired level is reached, turn the ON/OFF switch to "OFF" (lower). The brewer remembers this volume and will continue to brew batches of this size until the volume setting procedure is repeated.
NOTE: When brewing tea, batch volumes will decrease due to absorption by the tea grounds.
3. Setting programming disable feature. If it becomes necessary to prevent anyone from changing brew times once programmed, you can set the SET/LOCK switch to the "LOCK" position. This will prevent any program­ming to be done until switch is once again placed in the "SET" position.

(Dilution cycle is usually between 3 to 3 1/2 minutes).
11. If adjustment is needed, turning the adjustment valve clockwise decreases the amount of sweetener dis-
pensed and turning the adjustment valve counterclockwise increases the amount of sweetener dispensed.
12. Set the "Delay" knob on the dilution timer back to the 6 to 7 minute setting.
13. After the desired volume has been set, turn the water supply on.
14. Reinstall the top lid and rear panel. The brewer may now be returned to service.
OPERATING CONTROLS
A. ON/OFF Switch
ON - Placing the switch in the left position allows the start switch to activate a timed brew cycle for three gallons
of tea. OFF - Placing the switch in the right position stops the brew cycle. Stopping a brew cycle after it has been started will not stop the fl ow of water into the funnel until the tank syphons down to its proper level. The switch should
always be placed in this position after a brew cycle and whenever the brewer is unattended.
B. Start Switch Starts a brew cycle when the ON/OFF switch is in the "ON" position.
C. UNSWEET/OFF/SWEET Selector Switch (Models with Sweetener Only) UNSWEET - Placing the switch in the left positional allows the start switch to activate a timed brew cycle for three gallons of tea without sweetener. OFF - Placing the switch in the middle position stops the brew cycle. Stopping a brew cycle after it has been started will not stop the fl ow of water into the funnel until the tank syphons down to its proper level. The switch
should always be placed in this position after a brew cycle and whenever the brewer is unattended. SWEET - Placing the switch in the right positional allows the start switch to activate a timed brew cycle for three
gallons of tea with sweetener.

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 qualifi ed service person-
nel.
All electronic components have 120 - 240 volt ac and low voltage dc potential on their terminals. Shorting
of terminals or the application of external voltages may result in board failure.
Intermittent operation of electronic circuit boards is unlikely. Board 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 fi ttings 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. Keep away from combustibles.
WARNING –
• Exercise extreme caution when servicing electrical equipment.
• Unplug the brewer when servicing, except when electrical tests are specifi ed.
• Follow recommended service procedures
• Replace all protective shields or safety notices

the right side just behind the dilution timer.
Test Procedures:
1. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
2. Locate the blue/black wire on the control thermo­stat.
3. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across the blue/black wire on the control thermostat and the white wire on the tank heater for 100 volt and 120 volt two wire models or red wire on the tank heater for 230 volt two wire models. Connect the brewer to the power source. The indication must be:
a) 120 volts ac for two wire 120 volt models. b) 230 volts ac for two wire 230 volt models. c) 100 volts ac for two wire 100 volt models.
4. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
If voltage is present as described, reinstall the capillary tube into the tank to the line 4.5" above the bulb, the control thermostat is operating properly. If voltage is not present as described, replace the thermostat.
Removal and Replacement:
1. Remove both wires from the control thermostat terminals.
2. Remove the thermostat capillary bulb by fi rmly pulling up on the capillary tube at the tank lid. This will disengage the grommet from the tank lid.
3. Remove the #8-32 screw holding the control thermostat to its bracket.
4. Slide the grommet to the line 4.5" above the bulb on the new capillary tube.
5. Insert the capillary bulb through the hole in the tank lid and press the grommet fi rmly and evenly so that the groove in the grommet fi ts into the tank lid.
6. Carefully bend the capillary tube so that the tube and bulb inside the tank are in a vertical posi­tion.
NOTE – The capillary tube must be clear of any electri­cal termination and not kinked.
7. Fasten the new control thermostat to its bracket.
8. Refer to Fig. 5 when reconnecting the wires.
9. Adjust the control thermostat as required.
If voltage is present as described, proceed to #5. If voltage is not present as described, refer to the Wir- ing Diagrams and check the brewer wiring harness.
5. Locate the black wire on the control thermostat.
6. Gently remove the capillary bulb and grommet from the tank.
7. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across the black wire of the control thermostat and the white wire on the tank heater for 100 volt and 120 volt two wire models or red wire on the tank heater for 230 volt two wire models when the control

SERVICE (cont.) DIGITAL BREW TIMER (cont.)
To increase a brew volume, place the ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position, press and hold the START switch until three clicks are heard. Release the switch and press it again one or more times. (Failure to re­lease the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory.) Each time the switch is pressed, two seconds are added to the brew time period. Allow the brew cycle to fi nish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
To decrease a brew volume, place the ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position, press and release the START switch once for every two-second interval to be removed from the total brew time period; then im­mediately press and hold down the START switch until three clicks are heard. Release the switch. (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory). Al­low the brew cycle to fi nish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
3. Setting programming disable feature. If it be- comes necessary to prevent anyone from changing brew time once programmed, you can set the SET/ LOCK switch to the "LOCK" position. This will prevent any further programming until switch is once again put into the "SET" position.
2. Setting brew volumes. To set a brew volume,
fi rst check that the SET/LOCK switch is in the "SET" position on the circuit board. Place the ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position, press and hold the START switch until three distinct clicks are heard and then release the switch. (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory.) View the level of the liquid being dispensed. When the desired level is reached, turn the ON/OFF switch to "OFF". NOTE: Several ounces of water will continue to sy­phon from the tank after turning the switch "OFF". The brewer remembers this volume and will continue to brew batches of this size until the volume setting procedure is repeated. NOTE: When brewing tea, volume will decrease due to absorption by the tea grounds.

Location: The dilution timer is located inside the hood on the right side. It consists of the dial plate with two dials and circuit board.
Test Procedure:
1. Disconnect the brewer from the power source and remove the wires from terminals TL3, TL4, & TL5 of the timer and rotate both dials fully counter­clockwise.
2. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across termi­nals TL1 and TL2 when the ON/OFF switch is in the "ON" position. Connect the brewer to the power source. The indication must be:
a) 120 volts ac for two wire 120 volt models. b) 230 volts ac for two wire 230 volt models. c) 100 volts ac for two wire 100 volt models.
3. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
If voltage is present as described, proceed to #4. If voltage is not present as described, refer to the Wir- ing Diagrams and check the wiring harness.
If continuity is present as described, reconnect the wires to terminals TL3, TL4, & TL5 of the timer board and proceed to #5. If continuity is not present as described, refer to the Wiring Diagrams and check the wiring harness.
5. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across termi­nals TL1 and TL4 when the ON/OFF switch is in the "ON" position and the start switch is momentarily placed in the lower position. Connect the brewer to the power source. After a delay of approximately three minutes, the indication must be:
a) 120 volts ac for two wire 120 volt models for
approximately one minute and then return to its previous indication.
b) 230 volts ac for two wire 230 volt models for
approximately one minute and then return to its previous indication.

FIG. 20 SWEETNER SOLENOID VALVE
Location: Viewing the brewer from the front, the sweetener solenoid is mounted on the right side of the solenoid mounting bracket which is secured to the bottom base housing.
If continuity is not present as described, replace the solenoid valve.
5. Check the solenoid valve for coil action. Con­nect the brewer to the power source, place the UNSWEET/OFF/SWEET switch in the “SWEET” position and momentarily place the start switch in the lower position and release. At the start of a brew cycle, listen carefully in the vicinity of the solenoid valve for a “clicking” sound as the coil magnet attracts and at the end of the brew cycle when the plunger is released.
6. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
If the sound is heard as described and sweetener will not pass through the solenoid valve, there may be a blockage in the sweetener line before or after the solenoid valve or, the solenoid valve may require inspection for wear, and removal of particles. If the sound is not heard as described, replace the solenoid valve.
Test Procedure:
1. Disconnect the brewer from the power source.
2. With a voltmeter, check the voltage across the brown/white and white/violet wires on the sweet­ener solenoid terminals when the UNSWEET/OFF/ SWEET switch is in the “SWEET” position and the start switch is momentarily placed in the lower position. Connect the brewer to the power source. After the approximate setting on the delay dial, the indication must be:
a) 120 volts ac for two wire 120 volt models. b) 230 volts ac for two wire 230 volt models. c) 100 volts ac for two wire 100 volt models, remain for the approximate setting on the dilution
dial, and then return to its previous indication.
3. Disconnect the brewer from the power supply.
If voltage is present as described, proceed to #4. If voltage is not present as described, refer to the Wir­ing Diagrams and check the wiring harness.
Removal and Replacement:
1. Remove all wires from the solenoid valves.
2. Turn off the sweetener supply to the brewer.
3. Disconnect the water lines to and from the sole­noid valves.
4. Remove the two #8-32 keps nuts holding the solenoid bracket to the mounting bracket.
5. Lift out the valve and bracket.
6. Remove the two #10-32 slotted-head screws hold­ing the solenoid valve to the mounting bracket.
7. Securely install the new solenoid valve to the mounting bracket.
8. Attach the solenoid valve and bracket to the mounting bracket.
9. Securely fasten the sweetener and water lines to and from the solenoid valves.
