on the water softener and check for any leaks. For optimal use of the appliance, check that the water
supply pressure exceeds 1 bar (100 kPa) and be less than 6 bar (600 kPa). If the incoming water pres-
sure exceeds 6 bar, we recommend to use a pressure reducer.
3)
Fill the tank with approx. 3 litres clean water and put it back. Close the upper cover grid (11) on
the machine.
6. MACHINE IGNITION
Before turning on the machine it is advisable that you check that there is water inside the
rear tank under the cup shelf (11).
NB:
If your machine install a motorpump: Raise the cover cup holders (11) and take out the internal
tank quick coupling (located into the machine). Press the switching button (Photo 2) in position I or II
depending on you want the connection to the mains water supply or removable tank respectively. Put
the tank in its seat and close the cover cup holders (11).
1)
Lift the ON/OFF power switch (3). The red indicator light (4) comes on.
2)
When the machine is switched on, the electronic card checks water level inside the boiler. After
approx. 3 seconds, the filling motorpump/pump and solenoid valve are enabled for filling.
The coffee machine will automatically be filled with water up to the pre-set level (level probe inside
the boiler).
NB
: The machines with internal tank quick coupling incorporate a safety system level. If the probe
does not detect water in the boiler within 180”, it starts the sound of a buzzer with high repetition
rate. To reset the alarm turn the machine off then on again. If the problem remains, check that water
is arriving from the water circuit or for any abnormalities into the tank and in the quick coupling.
3)
When the set level is reached, the motorpump/pump stops. The green warning light (5) comes
on and the heating element starts heating the water. It is advisable that you dispense water (14) for
5 seconds so as to eliminate any air bubbles from the thermosyphon circuit and for better thermal
compensation.
4)
Wait approximately 15-20 minutes to allow the machine to reach its operating temperature.
5)
When the green warning light (5) goes out the set machine pressure has been reached. The red
indicator light (4) will be always light (tension on the electrical circuit).
6)
If there is no water in the rear tank, it will be signaled by a beep. All the electrical and water func-
tions of the machine will stop, while the red indicator light (4) remains on.
Upon filling the tank with water, the micro switch or the electronic lever sensor in the tank will re-ac-
tivate all the functions.
7)
Pressure gauges (12) and (13) on the front show internal boiler pressure (0.9-1.1 bar) and coffee dis-
pensing pressure (8-10 bar) respectively at all times.
8)
Look at the pressure gauge (12) fairly frequently to check the boiler pressure. The appliance is fitted
with a safety device, which trips if the pressure inside the boiler is abnormal.
7. COFFEE DELIVERY
1)
To make coffee, put the right amount of BAR GROUND coffee (approx. 7 grams equivalent to 1
measuring spoon) into the 1 - cup filter holder (9).
2)
Press the coffee with the coffee tamper.
3)
Fit the filter holder (9) in the coffee distribution unit (14) and twist from left to right to block it in
place.
4)
Place one cup under the filter holder (9).
5)
Lift the manual lever (8) on the side of the unit.
6)
When the desired quantity of coffee has been dispensed lower the lever (8) to cut off delivery.
