INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Water Inlet Connection:
This equipment is to be installed to comply with the applicable Federal, State, or local plumbing codes having jurisdiction. In addition:
1. A quick disconnect water connection or enough extra coiled tubing (at least 2x the depth of the unit) so that the machine can be moved for
cleaning underneath.
2. An approved back flow prevention device, such as a double check valve to be installed between the machine and the water supply.
The GB beverage dispenser is equipped with a ¼" Flare Water Inlet Fitting which is located on the left side in the back of the base (when looking at
the machine from the front).
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
A WATER SHUT-OFF VALVE and A WATER FILTER, preferably a combination Charcoal/Phosphate Filter, to remove odors and inhibit lime and scale
build up in the machine.
Note: In areas with extremely hard water, a water softener must be installed in order to prevent a malfunctioning of the equipment and in order not
to void the warranty.
After the machine has been unpacked and placed on a counter, pull out the stainless steel drip tray. It should contain the following:
A Set of 4 Adjustable Leveling Legs & Water Inlet Fitting.
START-UP PROCEDURE
Caution: Make sure that the Heater Switch, located behind right hopper with door opened, is in the OFF position.
1. Connect the ¼" dia. copper waterline to the ¼" flare water inlet fitting of the valve.
2. Plug the power cord into a proper receptacle.
3. Activate the Power Switch (Toggle Up). The door display panel, the red power indicator light and the green dispense buttons will light up and
the tank will start filling. Allow approximately 4-5 minutes for the tank to fill.
4. Activate the Heater Switch. Allow approximately 10-30 minutes for the water to reach a temperature of 195°F. The heat up time will
depend on the water inlet temperature, the input voltage and the wattage of the elements in the machine.
5. Place a 6 oz. or larger cup under the left dispense nozzle, press and hold the left dispense switch for 6 seconds. The machine will dispense
water at the rate of 1 oz. per second. Repeat it several times to check for consistent output. Repeat same for the other dispense switches.
This procedure checks that the dispense valves are not airlocked.
6. While the tank is heating up, remove the hoppers, load them with products and reposition them back in the machine. When the green ready
light comes on, the tank has reached its brew temperature and the machine is ready to dispense the first cup of Cappuccino.
To Dispense a Cup of Cappuccino or Coffee or Soup: Place a 8 oz. or larger cup under selected drink dispense nozzle.
For Manual units: Push and hold brew button until cup is 2/3 full
, then release button.
For Automatic units: Press and Release button
. Cup will fill up automatically to it’s preset amount.
See Drink Strength Adjustments if different levels of drink strength are desired or Programming Dispense Volume if different cup sizes are
used.
