ERROR DETECTION
13
WHAT TO CHECK DESCRIPTION CORRECTIVE ACTION
Has the water tank
been properly filled?
On initial startup, an attempt to heat a
dry tank will be detected as too high a
temperature or insufficient temp rise, or
will trip the high limit.
Tank must be properly filled as
detailed on page 6.
Check hi-limit (see below)
Has hi-limit safety
thermostat tripped
off?
Brewer may have been started without
water in the tank, or the temp control
thermostat may require adjustment.
Access hi-limit by removing front
panel. Hi-limit is on the left side of
the tank. Use an insulated tool to
push the red button in until it “clicks”
and stays. Reset per above.
Check control board
and temp probe.
Brewer will go into error mode
immediately if either the control board
or temp probe is defective.
Temp probe electrical resistance is
approximately 30KΩ at room temp, and
2KΩ at boiling. Replace temp probe if
less than 1KΩ.
Reset by holding the CANCEL key for
3 seconds. If lights continue to flash:
Disconnect temp probe from control
board.
a. If lights continue to flash, unplug
brewer and replace control board.
b. If lights stop flashing, unplug
brewer and replace temp probe.
Check power board
and heating element..
Brewer will go into error mode 4 minutes
after energizing the heating element if
insufficient heat rise is detected. The
heating element is energized by an
electronic power board, and protected
by the hi-limit safety.
Heating element should receive full line
voltage (i.e. 120V, 208V or 240V).
Be sure the hi-limit safety is reset.
Reset by holding the CANCEL key
for 3 seconds. If lights resume
flashing after 4 minutes:
Check the voltage across the heating
element terminals:
a. If no voltage is present, unplug
brewer and replace power board.
b. If proper voltage is present,
unplug brewer and replace tank
heating element.
Is the brew
temperature properly
adjusted?
The brewer may occasionally go into
error mode if the brew temperature is
set too high.
See page 17 for temperature
adjustment procedure.
This brewer is designed to perform a continuous internal
diagnosis, and to signal faults by flashing all the lights. In fault
mode, warmers, heating element and water fill solenoid are turned
“off”, and most keypad functions are disabled.
Error detection (all lights flashing) will occur under two conditions:
• Anytime a temperature in excess of 214ºF is detected.
• Temperature does not change by at least 2ºF within 4 minutes
of tank heater being energized (HEAT light on).
To reset the brewer after the fault has been corrected, press and
hold the CANCEL key for 3 seconds, or disconnect the brewer from
electrical power for three seconds.
