INSTALLATION AND START-UP
TRANSPORT
Packaging
Delivery inspection
The machine is shipped in a unique carton box which uses expanded polystyrene paddings.
The machine box is provided with conventional symbols that can be perfectly visible during the handling
and storage tasks.
The machine box must stay in a vertical position during the transport. Do not tip or try to place the box
tilted sideways in any way.
During transportation the box must be protected from hits, impacts, shocks and exposure of bad weather
elements.
After the delivery, check that the machine is in the exact condition described in the documentation of the
transport, accessories included.
Check that the machine does not have any damage caused by transportation. If this happens, inform to the
shipper and the distributor of the machine.
The packaging materials are potentially dangerous and should be kept away from children.
Make sure to leave the materials of the box and packaging at a suitable recycling center.
The minimum dimensions for the place of the machine must be 360
mm wide x 415mm depth x 620 mm high.
Position the machine on a flat and stable surface, away from water
and sources of heat.
It should be located in a dry environment, since excessive humidity
will affect the machine.
Do not cover the machine with plastic film or cloths.
This machine can be connected to the mains water supply.
For more information, see the technical manual.

INSTALLATION AND START-UP
Electrical connection
Connect the machine to a earthed wall socket. Check the correct voltage and
frequency in this user manual.
Verify that the electric data of the nameplate are compatible with the operating conditions of the area
where you will install the machine.
The wall socket must be equipped with an earth contact. Make sure the earth system is efficient and in
conformity with current safety rules. It is mandatory to earth the machine.
You should protect the electric line of the installation with a circuit breaker switch appropriated for the
power consumption of the machine, specified on its nameplate.
A residual current circuit breaker must be installed in accordance with the characteristics of the area of
the installation.
Check the characteristics, power rating of the system and that the diameter of the cables are suitable for
the power used by the machine.
Do not use any extension cable, plug adapter nor multiple wall sockets.
DANGER!
If the mains cable or plug is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH!
Water connection
Important:
In this section we explain the recommendations about the water operating characteristics. How
to connect the machine to water mains is further explained in the technical manual. Normally the
machine is used with the internal water tank, follow the procedure found on page 12.
The Installation of the machine to a water mains connection must be done by a qualified person.
Rinse around 20 liters of water from the main water supply before connecting the machine to the water
connection.
Connect the inlet hose to the main water supply which should have a ½” male connection, tighten it with a
wrench. Use the flexible hose that is included in the accessory box of the machine.
Use safe drinking water with hardness between 5ºfH and 8ºfH (French hardness degrees). If the value is
below this limit, the presence of corrosion of hydraulic components is a possibility. If the value is higher
than this limit, the presence of lime in the boiler will increase. In both cases the operation of the machine
and coffee quality will be affected negatively.
If you connect the machine to a water mains connection, we recommend connecting the dip tray to
drainage. It is explained in the next section.

INSTALLATION AND START-UP
Note:
The drainage can be used regardless if the machine is
connected to the water mains or the internal water tank.
Remove the drip tray. Connect the corrugated tube to
the drain cup.
Use a drill to make a hole at the
mark shown on the lower part
of the tray.
The machine drip tray can be connected to a larger drain, allowing the tray to be emptied less frequently.
A
suitable location is required for this. To use this feature, follow the connection procedure explained below.

Fill the tank to the maximum level.(A)
If the machine is connected to the water mains, filling will be done automatically.
Connect the machine to the electricity supply.
Switch on the machine at the power switch. (B)
It may be that when the machine is switched on, it goes into standby mode
‘standby’
.
If the machine is in
‘standby’
mode, this can be easily recognised since buttons K5 and
K3 will flash simultaneously. In this case, the machine must be changed to `
ON`
mode.
To do this, press buttons K5 and K3 at the same time
It is easy to recognise when the machine is in ON mode since the 6 LEDs of the
buttons will light up, except one unlit button that will cycle. This indicates that the
machine is heating up the boiler.
Once all the buttons are lit (none is flashing) the machine is ready to dispense coffee.
