Start Up Procedures (cont.)
5) The body of the brewer must be grounded. A ground lug is provided for this purpose.
Initial Start-up
1) Turn on the water supply to the brewer. Check for leaks at the supply line to the fill valve connection.
2) Replace the front access panel.
3) Turn on the electric supply. The brewer will begin to fill. If the Water Hot light begins flashing during this initial
filling, then the water fill valve has been on for more than 5 minutes. This is an error mode, and the unit must
be reset. To reset, remove the control board access cover. Press the Select button for 10 seconds to reset the
controller and resume filling.
4) Once the brewer is full, it will take 15 - 35 minutes to heat. The Water Hot light will turn on when the water is
up to the proper brewing temperature.
5) Insert the brew baskets and place a shuttle over the warmer shelf. Brew at least 1 batch from each side.
Check the level in the container to be sure the brew volume is correct. Remember that when using coffee, the
level will be lower. Do this for both batch sizes when provided. The water must be hot to check the levels. If
adjustments are needed, see the
Adjustments section
of this manual.
User Control Functions
There are 2 sets of controls on the exterior of the P400GNB unit, 1 set of controls per brew station. Each set of
controls consists of a touchpad and a red Stop switch. A water faucet and a red Water Hot light are located
between the 2 sets of touchpad controls.
Touchpad Functions
(Refer to Figure A): Each touchpad has 3 switch pads with symbols above each switch pad
that illuminate the selected operation.
The 1st switch (left position) is used to select the PORTION SIZE desired: 1/2 gal, 1 gal and 1 1/2 gal. Default
setting is 1 1/2 gal. Pressing the button repeatedly cycles through the 3 settings.
The 2nd switch (middle position) is used to select the operating Mode: Grind Only, Brew Only and Grind’n Brew.
Default setting is Grind’n Brew. Pressing the button repeatedly cycles through the 3 settings.
The 3rd switch (right position) is used to Start the operation. Pressing this switch starts the grinding operation, then
follows with the brewing operation. During the brewing operation, a red dot will illuminate indicating that
brewing is in progress. After the brew time is elapsed, the red dot will flash during the drip through phase of the
brewing cycle. Throughout the grinding and brewing operations, the touchpad functions are locked out from making
any changes.
NOTE
: Before any operation is to be performed, the brew basket and shuttle must be in place.
Stop Switch Function:
Pressing the Stop switch any time during the cycle will terminate the cycle prematurely and
reset the controller to a waiting status.
