6. Accessories

The following accessories are included with the machine:

A double-spout portafilter

A single-shot filter basket

A double-shot filter basket

Tamper

Rubber back flush disc

Coffee scoop

7. Initial Start-Up Instructions

Machines that use a water reservoir.

For machines connected to a water

line, see the next page

.

After the machine has been removed from the packaging, place it on a level surface.

1. Remove the white protective covering from the all parts of the

machine.

2. Remove the reservoir from the top of the machine and rinse it out. Fill

the reservoir with water and place it back into the machine. Make sure
both rubber tubes are placed back into the reservoir. (Vibration pump
machines with water line options will not have the second tube)

3.

NOTE: Do not use water that has had all of the minerals removed.

Minerals are necessary for the sensors in the boiler to work
properly. Notice that the water inlet line has a water softener on it.
Make sure that it fills with water and is not floating.

4. Plug the machine into a wall socket that matches the three-pronged

plug on the machine. It is important that the machine is grounded. If
you have any questions, please call Whole Latte Love at 888-411-5282
and ask to talk to a representative in our technical department.

5. Turn on the main power switch and move the brew-group lever to the

UP position. The pump will go on and fill both the steam boiler and
the brew boiler. Leave the lever in the UP position until there is a
steady stream of water coming out of the brew group. Move the lever
to the DOWN position and let them machine heat up. Always leave the
empty portafilter in the brew group so that it will be hot when you’re
ready to brew.

Note: When the water in the reservoir gets low, the machine will turn
itself off.

It will take around 18 minutes for both the brew boiler and steam boiler to reach
operating temperatures. Please see the brewing tips section for information on how to
get the best results out of your new Brewtus IV.
