Safety

Note

DO NOT connect this brewer to a hot 
water supply. The water inlet valve is 
not rated for hot water.
Do not exceed the maximum water 
pressure stated in the technical data 
section.

 

Installation Requirements

•  For units without an attached cord set attached: 

Appropriately sized, VDE listed, grounding type power cable 
tp meet the electrical specifi cations for the appliance. If you 
have questions about the correct cable size and length, consult 
a qualifi ed installer. If the appliance will be hard wired to a 
junction box, the power cable must be long enough so that the 
unit can be moved for cleaning underneath.

•  A grounded electrical connection to an electrical circuit 

that meets the electrical specifi cations of the appliance 
(see Technical Data). The circuit must be protected by the 
appropriate sized circuit breaker. If you are not certain that the 
existing circuit meets the requirements for your unit, consult a 
licensed electrician.

•  A water fi ltration system is required to maintain trouble-free 

operation. Wilbur Curtis Co., Inc. recommends a Wilbur Curtis 
approved water fi lter.

•  Potable water supply line connection from the water fi lter 

capable of supplying the minimum fl ow rate required by the 
specifi cations. The water supply line must be able to connect to 
the fl are fi tting on the back of the unit. See Technical Data for 
the correct size.
