  ● Turn on main switch 1; the boiler is filled and is activated.

Once the boiler is filled, turn resistance switch 2; the water is heated; then, operate the unit until the water is dispensed.

- Wait for the machine to reach its working pressure, gauge needle 7 - Fig.6, and to reach the correct thermal balance.

8. USE

The machine has a top shelf on which the cups are kept and heated, ready for use.

This is very important to obtain good coffee as the pre-warmed cup stops the coffee from growing cold too quickly.

8.1. Preparing coffee

● Unclamp the filter-holder from the dispensing unit and knock any grouts out into the drawer especially provided for this purpose, taking care not to damage the rim of the filter.
- Use the filter for 1 or 2 coffees, according to need.
- Fill the filter with the measure of coffee, level it off and press it down gently with the presser.
- Remove any ground coffee that has stuck to the rim of the filter while pressing.

If ground coffee is left on the rim of the filter, a leaktight seal is not ensured, with consequent leaking of water and coffee grounds.

• Lock the filter-holder into the dispensing unit firmly to obtain a leaktight seal.
• Place the cups under the spouts and start pouring using control 3 or button panel 4 according to model (Fig.6).
• When the coffee has been poured, leave the filter-holder attached to the dispensing unit until the next coffee is required.

When pouring, beware of the hot parts of the machine, especially the coffee dispensing units, the steam and hot water spouts. Do not put your hands for any reason under the units and the spouts when they are operating.

The grinding of the coffee beans is of fundamental importance to the making of good coffee, and the granular texture of the resulting grounds should be such that it takes 25-30 seconds to produce the beverage. If the coffee is ground too coardsely the coffee will be pale in colour and weak in flavour, with only a very small amount of white cream, and if the grounds are too fine, the coffee will be dark with no cream. Good coffee can only be made if the beans are freshly and uniformly ground (only possible when the blades of the coffee grinder are sharp) and are then measured out into the correct quantities (roughly 6 grams per measure).

The importance of freshly ground coffee beans is due to the fact that once ground, they rapidly lose their aromatic qualities, and fats present in the beans go rancid.

8.2. Preparing cappuccino (Fig.8)

● Make cup of cappuccino with the express coffee.
● Use a high and narrow jug, half-filled with milk.
- Place the jug under the spout so that the nozzle touches the bottom.
- Turn on the steam tap (6 - Fig.6) and lower the jug so that the nozzle is almost at the surface of the milk.
- Continuously move the jug up and down so that the nozzle moves in and out of the milk, causing it to froth.
● Turn off the steam tap and pour the milk into the cup.

Immediately after carrying out this operation, clean the spout with a sponge or a clean cloth so that the milk does not dry on it. Be careful as the spout is hot and may burn your hand.

8.3. Heating a beverage

• Immerse the steam spout into the liquid to be heated.
  ● Gradually turn on the steam tap 6 (Fig.6); the steam that bursts in the liquid heats it to the desired temperature.
  ● Turn off the steam tap when the desired temperature has been reached.

Immediately after carrying out this operation, clean the spout with a sponge or clean cloth. Be careful as the spout is hot and may burn your hand.

8.4. Preparing tea, camomile, etc.

• Place the jug under the hot water spout and turn the water tap 5. When the desired quantity has been obtained, turn off the tap.
• Add the beverage desired.

When purified water is used, these beverages often assume a darker colour.

Should the user prefer a lighter coloured drink, draw fresh water from an ordinary tap and proceed with the heating phase as described in point 8.3.

9. ADJUSTMENT AND SETTING OF THE DOSE (where available)

9.1. Models E1

It is possible to adjust the dose of coffee dispensed E1 models.

9.1.1. Adjusting the dose

The coffee dose adjustments are made by acting on the group keyboards with machine at rated pressure.

1 Press the button E on the panel and hold it down for 8-10 seconds until water stops flowing from the dispensing unit and the led of the continuons button begins flashing.
2 It is necessary to act as to make 1 or 2 cups in order to reach the correct coffee amount adjustment in the cup.
3 Put the filter-holder (with ground coffee) on the left unit and the cup under the spout.
4 Operate the selected button (i.e. button A for one small cup).
5 One the required coffee amount in the cup has been reached, press the stop button E. Coffe will stop pouring and the microprocessor will store the dose.
6 Press the continuous button E again; the led will go out and the machine will store the new quantity.
7 Make the coffee and check the cup amount in order to check that programming is correct.

If some doses have to be changed (B-C-D), once at point 5 repeat the instructions in points 3-4-5 for each dose, remembering to use the filter-holder with relevant filter and freshly ground coffee.

Then carry out point 6 and repeat point 7 to check all changed doses.

10. MAINTENANCE

Maintenance operations have to be carried out when the machine is off and cold and the plug is disconnected. Some particular operations have to be effected when the machine is operating.

Do not clean the machine by using metal or abrasive devices, such as steel wool, metal brushes, needles, etc. or general detergents (alcohol, solvents, etc.)

When necessary, use special detergents for coffee machines that can be bought in specialized service centres.

10.1. Daily (Fig.9)

Use a clean cloth or sponge that does not leave hairs or fluff (preferably cotton or linen).

• Carefully clean the outside surface, following the grain of the satin finish on the parts in stainless steel.
• Clean the steam and hot water spouts, check that the nozzles are not encrusted (if they become encrusted, be careful not to deform or damage them).
  ● Clean the spray units and the seals under the casing of the delivery units using the special brush supplied
• Remove the filter-holders of the machine and remove the filters and the clamp which secures the filter, use a brush to remove any coffee deposits and rinse with hot water in order to dissolve any grease deposits.

Model S1 TANK

Operation to be carried out when the machine is off and cold and the plug is disconnected.

• Remove the lid on the water-tank;
• Remove the air trap C and softener A (Fig.7);
  ● Take out the water-tank, empty and clean it;
  ● Thoroughly rinse the water-tank and replace it in the machine;
  ● Place the air trap in its guide and the softener horizontally on the bottom of the water-tank;
  ● Fill the tank with clean water and close the lid.

If the air trap is not in the correct position, the machine cannot heat or indicate a lack of water in the tank.

10.2. Weekly

Operations to be carried out with the machine operative and under pressure.

• Place the supplied blind filter in the filter-holder, put in a spoonful of detergent in powder for coffee machines and fit the filter-holder in the unit to be cleaned.

Operation to be carried out when the machine is off and cold.

● Prepare a solution of 4 sachets of detergent powder Code 69000124 dissolved in a litre of boiling water in a stainless steel, plastic or glass recipient (NOT ALUMINIUM OR IRON).
- Remove the filters and immerse them with the filter holders in the prepared solution, leaving them for at least 10/20 minutes (all night is better).
- Remove them from the container and rinse them thoroughly in running water.

Tank cleaning (Fig.10 - 11)

• Remove the cup-stand grille 1 (Fig.10) and clean.
• Check and clean the drainage sump 3 (Fig.11), removing any sludge with the help of a spoon.

10.3. Periodical maintenance

Operation to be carried out with the machine under pressure.

● Discharge the water from the boiler with hot water delivery switch 5
● Wait until the machine has returned to heat equilibrium before reuse.

10.3.1. Renewal of water in the boiler (Fig.12)

To be carried out only by qualified personnel.

• Turn off the machine and wait for the pressure in the boiler to diminish (gauge needl on "0").
• Insert a rubber hose (1) into the hose-end fitting (2)
  ● Loosen the hose-end fitting (2).
• Allow the water to flow out completely; then, close the fitting (2) and remove the rubber hose (1).
  ● Refill the boiler (paragraph 7.3.).

10.3.2. Regeneration

Softener DP2 - DP4

Regenerate the water softener within the time-limits specified for the softener as follows:

DP2

nr.1 regeneration per month for 500 coffees/day; nr.2 regenerations per month (once a fortnight) for 1000 coffees/day.

DP4

nr.1 regeneration per month for 1000 coffees/day; nr.2 regenerations per month (once a fortnight) for 2000 coffees/day.

This table has been drawn up according to a water hardness of 25 degrees calculated on the French scale.

See the documentation included with the softener for the instructions for use.

Model S1 TANK (Fig.13)

Operation to be carried out when the machine is off and cold and with the plug disconnected.

To be effected after the consumption of approx.15 litres of water (average hardness calculated as 35 degrees on the French scale) or at least once a month.

● Prepare a solution in a glass of water adding three teaspoons of fine salt (the salt must be properly dissolved).
● Drain the water-tank, see point 10.2.
- Slide the softener 1 (Fig.13) off the rubber tubing 2 and turn it over.

• Pour the solution through the filter and the resin, letting it flow down freely.
• Wait about 5 minutes, then hold the softener under a tap and rinse it with water. When the water coming out of the softener is no longer salty, the resins are regenerated and the softener is ready for use once again.
  ● Put the softener back on the rubber tube and replace it horizontally on the bottom of the tank.
• On completion of this operation, the machine can be started up again by repeating the procedure described in paragraph 7.3.

11. STOPPING THE MACHINE
