INITIAL SET-UP

1. Locate the drip tray assembly beneath the dispenser nested in the packing material.

2. Remove the drip tray and the drip tray cover and set them aside.

3. Remove the water strainer assembly from the drip tray and set it aside.

4. Remove the four legs from the drip tray, apply non-skid pads to the bottom of the legs and securely install

the legs in the dispenser base.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

CAUTION - The dispenser must be disconnected from the power source until specified in

Initial Set-Up.

The 120 volt version of this dispenser has an attached cordset and requires 2-wire, grounded service rated 120 volts ac, 15 amp, single phase, 60 Hz. The mating connector must be a NEMA 5-15R.

The 120/240 volt version of this dispenser requires 3-wire, grounded service rated 120/240 volt ac, 20 amp, single phase, 60 Hz.

(

Refer to the dispenser’s dataplate for exact voltage requirement.)

ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP

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. Open the front door of the dispenser and place the heater switch in the

“OFF” (upper position).

120 volt versions proceed to step 6. 120/240 volt versions proceed to next step.

4. Remove the right side panel of the dispenser.

5. Install the electrical wiring to the terminal block as illustrated at right.

6. Connect the dispenser to the power source and verify the voltage at the terminal block. Reinstall the side

panel.

7. If plumbing is to be hooked-up later be sure the dispenser is disconnected from the power source. If

plumbing 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 90 psi (138 and 620 kPa) from a 1⁄2" or larger supply line. A shut-off valve should be installed in the line before the dispenser. 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 fitting is 1⁄4" flare.

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. At least 18 inches of an FDA approved flexible beverage tubing, such as reinforced braided polyethylene or silicone, before the brewer will facilitate movement to clean the countertop. It can be purchased direct from Bunn-O-Matic (part number 00326-0000). 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).

27591 061600

PLUMBING HOOK-UP

1. Securely attach the short piece of tubing on the water strainer assembly to the inlet fitting on the bottom of the dispenser.

2. Flush the water line and securely attach it to the flare fitting on the water strainer assembly.

3. Turn-on the water supply.

INITIAL FILL & HEAT

CAUTION - The dispenser must be disconnected from the power source throughout the initial set-up, except

when specified in the instructions.

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 five minutes.

3. When the tank is full of water, open the front door and place the heater switch in the “ON” (lower) position. A tank full of cold water will take approximately forty minutes for the water to heat on 120 volt versions, and twenty minutes on 120/240 volt versions.

During this waiting period, complete these dispenser set-up steps: a. Place the drip tray in front of the dispenser. Set the drip tray cover in place. b. Place a set of keyholes in the cup locator plate over the screws beneath the hopper access door and push

down gently.

c. Fill the hopper with the dry product to be dispensed.

DISPENSER USE

1. Simply place a cup on the drip tray beneath the dispensing tip.

2. Press the button to froth and dispense the beverage.

3. Release the button when the cup is approximately 2/3 full and allow the mixing chamber to drain.

NOTE - The mixing chamber must drain at the end of each dispense.

CLEANING

Refer to the decal inside the hopper access door for cleaning recommendations and procedures. 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.

ADJUSTMENTS

The beverage solenoid is preset to dispense approximately one ounce per second. This amount can be

adjusted:

1. Disconnect the dispenser from the power source.

2. Remove the small right side access panel.

3. Rotate the control at the base of the solenoid clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise to increase the amount of water.

DRAINING THE HOT WATER TANK

CAUTION - The dispenser must be disconnected from the power source throughout these steps.

1. Disconnect the dispenser from the power source.

2. Open front door and place tank heater switch in the “OFF” (upper) position.

3. Shut-off and disconnect the incoming water supply.

4. Remove the top panel.

5. Gently remove one of the grommets from the tank lid.

6. Insert a tube to the bottom of the tank and syphon ALL of the water out. (Bunn-O-Matic has a syphon assembly #12440.0000 available for this purpose.)

NOTE - The dispenser must be refilled using the INITIAL FILL & HEAT steps before reconnecting to the power source.

HOPPER DISPENSE RATE OF PRODUCT

1. Hopper dispense rate with 8 tooth gear and auger wire is approximately 4 to 6 grams per second.

2. Hopper dispense rate with optional 12 tooth gear and auger wire is 6 to 9 grams per second.

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 electronic components have 120 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 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 unit is heated at all times. Keep away from combustibles.

WARNING – • Exercise extreme caution when servicing electrical equipment.

• Unplug the dispenser when servicing, except when electrical tests are specified.

• Follow recommended service procedures

• Replace all protective shields or safety notices
