Initial Start-Up Instructions Brewtus IV-R
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. Attach the water line from the machine to your water line connection and turn on
the water supply to the machine. Run the line from the bottom of the machine to
your drain line.
3. 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
regarding this please give Whole Latte Love a call at 888-411-5282 and ask to
talk to a representative in our technical department.
4. 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. If the pump runs for more than 1 minute and water does not come out
of the brew group, please turn off the machine and call Whole Latte Love
Technical Support.
5. Move the lever to the DOWN position and let them machine heat up.
6. Always leave the empty portafilter in the brew group so that it will be hot when
you’re ready to brew.
Note: 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.
8. Water Softener Instructions (Brewtus IV
Machines with Reservoir Only)
The Brewtus IV comes with a water softener that will help keep damaging minerals out
of the boilers. There is nothing that has to be done at initial start up stage to get the water
softener ready for use.
See the chart below for recommendation how to recharge the water softener. Use the
following recharging instructions:
Water softener filter
Water reservoir
a) Fill a container with water (same amount as the reservoir)
b) Add 3 tablespoons of salt to the water container.
c) Stir the salt into the water.
