GENERAL INFORMATION
Improper set up will result in permanent damage and void the limited warranty.
Read and follow the initial set up instructions on page 4.
• This brewer is designed to remain plugged in at all times, except during initial set up or
when cleaning.
• A vacation switch is provided to completely shut-off all electrical components when
you’ll be away from home for three or more days. Safety features that are designed
in the BUNN coffee brewer make daily use of this switch unnecessary. On the
NHBX,
the switch is on the lower right side (when you’re facing the brewer). Press
I
to turn
on and
O
to turn off. On the
STX, it is on the lower back of the brewer. To turn it on,
press in the top of the switch (
I
) and to turn off press in the bottom (
O
). The red power
light on the right front of the
STX trunk will be illuminated when the power is on.
• If the brewer has been shut off or unplugged for an extended period of time, fill the
tank with water and allow the water in the tank to heat to the proper temperature
before using (about 15 minutes or until the heating sound stops).
• Your BUNN coffee brewer has a specially designed tank to keep the water at the
proper temperature. This constant supply of hot water assures correctly brewed coffee.
•
(STX model) The brewed coffee flows into an unheated thermal carafe. The double
wall stainless steel construction will hold coffee at serving temperature for about two
hours at maximum flavor. Pre-heating with hot water will increase the time your coffee
stays warm.
•
(NHBX model) The brewed coffee flows into a glass decanter where it is kept at serving
temperature on the porcelain decanter warmer. The warmer is controlled by the lighted on/
off switch on the front of the brewer.
NOTE: The warmer switch controls only the decanter warmer.
• The decanter lid reduces coffee evaporation and temperature loss.
• While coffee is being brewed, the newest water in the tank is heated to the proper
temperature and held until needed.
• When the brewer is not in operation, the lid should be closed. If the lid is left open,
water could drip from the sprayhead when cold water is poured in.
• Use CAUTION when dispensing hot water from the brewer. The water is approximately
50°F hotter than what’s available from your hot water faucet and is always available for
other uses.
• The sprayhead may periodically become loose. Using extreme caution since it may be
hot, retighten the sprayhead with your fingertips.
NOTE: A severe burn may result if the sprayhead becomes loose and falls off while the
coffee is brewing.
