products. To change any settings, perform maintenance, or clean and sanitize
your machine, refer to the appropriate sections later in this manual.
SPECIFICATIONS (CONTINUED)

Set-Up Guide
May, 2000 Page 3 6800063
POWER SUPPLY
Ensure the machine has its own electrical circuit. NOTE - DOMESTIC UNITS -
The internal 4-amp fuse ONLY protects the electronics inside the machine. The
unit is provided with a 10 foot power cord and a polarized grounded plug. Use
only a polarized grounded receptacle. Always follow national and local codes.
• Domestic and Canada ...........................115 VAC / 60 Hz - 15 Amp Circuit
• International......................................... 230 VAC / 50 Hz - 10 Amp Circuit
WATER SUPPLY
The best type of water for coffee brewing is normal tap water, filtered to remove
sediment, dirt, and chlorine. National Vendors recommends the Hydrolife Brand
or the Everpure Brand - Model “OCS” filter products to provide the proper level
of filtration. If your location has chemically softened water, do one of the fol-
lowing:
• Install a non-softened water supply line to the machine location.
• Contact your local water filter supplier for information and suggestions.
• Use a bottled water source with the optional electric water pump.
An easily accessible shut off valve up stream of the machine is highly recom-
mended. This will simplify installation of the unit. Always follow national and
local codes.
WATER PRESSURE
• Maximum water pressure ..................................................................80 PSI
• Minimum water pressure ...................................................................20 PSI
SITE REQUIREMENTS

Set-Up Guide
6800063 Page 4 May, 2000
CLEARANCES
The power cord and water connections are on the back of the unit. Three (3)
inches of clearance is recommended at the back of the machine. Each side of the
unit should have at least three (3) inches of clearance. This will allow for key
access on one side and door swing on the other..

Set-Up Guide
May, 2000 Page 5 6800063
To protect property and provide safety, installation should be
completed by properly trained personnel, and in accordance
with local and national codes.
This single cup brewer may be installed on a counter top or on the optional
factory supplied base. If the base option is used follow the instructions included
with it.
COUNTER TOP INSTALLATION
SET AND SEAL
Locate the unit, make the water connection, plug in the unit, and seal the coffee
maker to the counter top with the gasket provided.
WATER LINE CONNECTION
STANDARD, OPTIONAL, AND FIELD SUPPLIED PARTS
The factory provides a check valve assembly and washer (shipped in the plastic
bag) which must be installed. A water filter and shutoff valve (optional) should
be upstream of this assembly. Any other components are field supplied. When
codes permit the use of plastic tubing, use appropriate inserts at the connections
to prevent collapse.
FLUSHING LINES
Water lines should be flushed before connecting to the machine. This will pre-
vent sediment from entering the unit.

SEALING THE UNIT TO THE COUNTER TOP
FACTORY AND FIELD SUPPLIED PARTS
A sealing strip is supplied by the factory. Remove the paper back from a section
of the strip and apply to the base. Work a length at a time going completely
around the base of the unit. Seal must contact both the unit and the counter top.
No other parts are needed for this operation.

Set-Up Guide

INSTALL FILTER PAPER
1. (Wash your hands first). Remove the spent filter paper roll:
a. Swing the filter paper holder out
and pull the spent roll from the
shaft.
b. Lift the idler roller as shown,
freeing the paper.
c. Discard the spent filter paper.
2. Install a new roll so it feeds from the bottom. Be sure it goes over the ten-
sion spring as shown.
3. Route the filter paper as shown. Lift the idler rollers, feeding the paper
under them, but over the spring wire.
4. Close the unit’s door and make one test drink.
5. Open the door and check to see if the filter paper advanced properly. Close
the door for normal operation.

Set-Up Guide
6800063 Page 8 May, 2000
One sheet of menu inserts is included with your machine. Separate inserts from
the sheet as appropriate for your machine’s drinks. Attach the stickers for cup
size and (if you have a monetary unit) price. Place the inserts into the door slots
from the rear as shown.
SET UP THE MENU INSERTS

FILL THE TANK
1. Press on the service keypad. Provided the upper (or upper AND
lower) tank probe is dry, the tank inlet valve will open until liquid is detected
by the upper probe.

ture reaches its desired operating range. (To override this, see
step 2d , page 14.)

product chutes up to prevent spilling.
2. Pull the canister shelf forward.
3. Fill each canister. Maximum fill
level is one inch below the top of the
canister. Do not overfill.
4. Push the canister shelf back into the
cabinet until it “clicks” in place.
5. Turn the canister chutes back
down. The chutes must be resting on
the chute stops or pointed straight
down. Close the door for normal
operation.

NOTE
The following messages are only visible when the LEDs
behind them are lit.
•OUT OF PAPER - Lights when the paper roll is empty, preventing any
brewed selections from dispensing. The paper roll must be replaced to
clear this indicator. NOTE: The brewed selection READY LEDs are off.
•GROUNDS TRAY - Lights when the drink counter has reached its limit
or the grounds tray is not fully seated, preventing any brewed selections
from dispensing. Completely remove and empty the spent grounds before
reseating the grounds tray to clear this indicator. NOTE: The brewed
selection READY LEDs are off.
•DRAIN TRAY - Lights when the drain tray is either full of liquid, or is
not fully seated, preventing any selections from dispensing. Completely
remove, empty any liquid, and reseat the drain tray to clear this indicator.
NOTE: All selection READY LEDs are off.
•DOOR OPEN - Lights when the front door is not fully closed, preventing
any selections from dispensing. NOTE: All selection READY LEDs are

When the machine is ready to dispense (all product canisters full and no errors
present), each selection’s READY indicator is lit.
1. Making a single cup:
a. Press the selection key. (Press twice for an extra strong drink.)
While dispensing is in progress, the READY light flashes. (The
ready light will flash at a different rate for an extra strong selec-
tion.) All other selection indicators are no longer lit.
b. Upon completion of dispensing, all READY indicators light again.
2. Dispensing hot water:
a. Press and hold the hot water button. Upon release the water will
stop. Maximum dispense is 12 oz.
NORMAL OPERATION

Set-Up Guide
May, 2000 Page 13 6800063
A. Configure the Machine
There are two sets of DIP switches (SW1 and SW2) on the service display board
(mounted on the back side of the door) (Figure 1). Please note that the switch
settings shown are not necessarily correct for your particular machine.
WARNING
Remove power from the machine before removing the cover
from this service display board. Leave power OFF until the
machine has been configured and the cover is replaced over the
board.
PROGRAMMING
Figure 1. DIP Switches

Set-Up Guide
6800063 Page 14 May, 2000
Place these switches in the YES or NO position, depending on the answers to the
following questions:
1. Selections 1 - 3:
a. Is it freeze dried?
b. Is it chocolate?
c. Is it a soluble product (for example, gourmet coffee)?
d. Will it be whipped? (Applies only to non-brewed drinks.)
e. Answer those same four questions for the remaining selections in
your machine.
NOTE
For a Café III, selection 3 DIP switches should all be set to
the NO position because the Café III has two selections. For
a Café IV, at least ONE of these MUST be set to the YES
position to enable the third selection.
If selections 1 and 2 are fresh brewed, all switches for those
selections should be in the NO position.
2. The following four switches are for miscellaneous configuration:
a. Small cup size? A “yes” answer configures for the 8.25 oz cup
size; a “no” answer configures for the 12 oz. cup size.
b. BREW/HI - LO TEMP switch. In a fresh brew machine, the
BREW/HI position selects a 202º F water tank setpoint. The LO
TEMP position selects a 195º F setpoint.
NOTE
In a freeze dried machine, the BREW/HI position selects a
195º F water tank setpoint. The LO TEMP position selects a
185º F setpoint.
c. Large grounds? A “yes” answer is large grounds; a “no” answer is
small grounds. (The large grounds pail is only available with the
optional base.)
d. Are you going to serve cool drinks? (This allows the machine to
dispense when the tank temperature is below the setpoint.) Note
that this setting is NOT recommended for brewed drinks, because
coffee quality deteriorates at temperatures below 185º F.
