2.3 STARTING FIG.
Please follow the valid national safety rules and turn to authorised personnel.
Install the machine on a shelf perfectly level, dry, smooth and robust.
To ensure smooth operation, the device must be installed in places where the
ambient temperature is between a temperature of +10 ° C ~ +32 ° C and humidity
not exceed 70%
Please check the following points before going through the start up procedure:
- the manual lever is set in the lower position (section 8, page 8);
- the steam diffuser and hot-water giver handgrip are turned off (section 6 and
7 page 8);
- the main switch is set on pos. “0”, or rather “OFF” (section 13 and 14 page
8);
- the plug is pulled out.
- the drip tray is placed properly.
Before operating the espresso machine ALEX model equipped with professional motor and water
means connection make sure that:
- The drip tray is placed properly (if draining occurs in the drip tray and thus
manually); or the drain pipe is placed properly: that is there are no chokes
along the whole tube and that it has a slope of at least 15%;
- verify that the valve that is located behind the drain tank
(section 11, page 8) is in the desired position, ie on the load
water from the tank or side load from the mains,
- If this check is not carried out and the tap's handgrip is
found in the opposite position to water supply, the pump might be seriously
damaged.
It is now that you can start with machine operation by observing the following points step by step:
- remove cover and pull the rubber tubes out of the water-tank (illustration. 1,
page 7);
- fill the reservoir with filtered drinking-water now and put it in again;
- make sure that both tubes have reached the water-tank’s bottom to guarantee
correct water suction;
- If you have mains water and drain pipe in the immediate vicinity of the
machine (only for Professional Model Alex) connect the hose to the plastic
tray and the inlet hose as shown in illustration 2 and 3 of page 7. Then select
the tap on the network's position (section 11 on page 8) and open the water
tap;
- connect the plug to a proper wall socket.
- press the main switch, whose built-in control indicator lights up;
- Immediately after leading the switch to ON, press the button for about
2 seconds (or press the buttons and on the professional model) to
disconnect the heating elements whilst filling the boiler.
