ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS CAUTION - The brewer must be disconnected from the power source until specified in Initial Set-Up. 120V model brewers require 2-wire, grounded service rated 120 volts ac, 15 amp, single phase, 60 Hz. Proceed as follows: 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 at the electrical source. 3. Connect the brewer to the

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 flow 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 Swi

SERVICE (cont.) 6. Check the solenoid valve for coil action. Connect BREW SOLENOID VALVE the brewer to the power source. With ON/OFF switch in the "ON" upper position press start switch and listen carefully in the vicinity of the solenoid valve for a "clicking" sound as the coil magnet attracts. 7. Disconnect the brewer from the power source. If the sound is heard as described and water will not pass through the solenoid valve, there may be a block- age in the water line before the solenoid val
