PORTOFINO RESTYLING
rev.4 - 03/2008
INTRODUCTION: CONSERVATION OF THE HANDBOOK
The manual is intended for the machine’s user and/or maintenance technician.
The object of this manual is to provide information for the correct use of the machine and proper maintenance, as well as to safeguard the safety of the ope-
rator.
This manual must be carefully retained, since the manufacturer accepts no responsibility for damage to people or things, or suffered by the machine if it is used
in other ways than that described therein or if the maintenance and safety prescriptions are not complied with.
This manual must always be available to the user and/or maintenance technician, who must be informed of the correct use of the machine and of possible
hidden risks. It must be kept in a dry, clean place.
The information given in this manual does not replace the safety instructions and technical data for installation and operating directly affixed to the machine
and packaging.
This manual is to be considered as part of the machine and must be kept for future reference until same is dismantled.
Should you lose it or require further information, contact your area agent or the manufacturer.
This manual reflects the state of the art at the current time and cannot be considered inadequate merely because it is updated later on the basis of new deve-
lopments.
The manufacturer also reserves the right to modify the manual without the duty of updating earlier issues, except in exceptional cases.
If the machine is used incorrectly or in ways other than described in this manual it will render any guarantee or manufacturer’s responsibility condition null and
void; it should only be used by a responsible adult.
CONTEMPLATED USE AND WARNINGS
The espresso coffee machine is an appliance for delivering steam/hot water for the professional preparation of coffee or for obtaining water and/or steam.
Its long-lasting, non-toxic components are easily accessible for proper cleaning and maintenance.
The user must be an adult. The machine must not be used by children or unsuitable people.
The user must comply with the safety regulations in force in the country of installation, as well as with the rules dictated by common sense, and ensure that
routine maintenance is carried out regularly and correctly.
The installer, the user and the maintenance technician must inform the manufacturer of possible faults or wear which could affect the system’s original safety.
The installer must check that the environmental conditions are suitable, so as to guarantee safety and hygiene for the operators and users.
The various manufacturers are responsible for the commercial components fitted to the machine; the customer is responsible for the people authorized to use
the machine.
Do not expose the machine to the weather (sun, rain, etc.).
Long machine stoppages at temperatures below 0 °C (zero degrees celsius) can cause damage or breakage to the piping or boiler; thus total emptying is
recommended.
Safety precautions
Do not tamper with the machine’s components or pull on the electric power cord to unplug it. Although a cable stay is used, unexpected tugs on the cord
could break it.
Never clean the inside of the machine with the power on or with the plug connected and do not use detergents or jets of water in any case.
The operator must not touch the machine with damp or wet hands or feet, or use it with bare feet. Although the machine is earthed, we recommend the use
of a wooden foot-board and a centralized life-saving system to prevent the risk of electric shocks as much as possible.
Do not touch the coffee spouts nor the water and steam taps with the hands or other parts of the body since the liquids or steam delivered are very hot and
could cause burns. Under normal operating conditions the machine has several very hot parts which should therefore only be handled where indicated.
Do not operate the machine without water. If the machine is not fitted with an automatic filling device, check using the level gauge and refill the boiler.
Possible obstructions or blocks could cause unexpected jets of liquid or steam, with serious consequences. Keep the water as clean as possible using filters
and softeners.
