Note that in the example above group 2 is at 45.6°C at moment of switching to ECO. As the ECO 
temperature of the coffee-boilers is 50°C, the boiler will continue to heat until 50°C is reached and the 
centre line will thus remain orange. 

 

Go to stand-by 

You have to leave the operational window to go to stand-by. In stand-by the controller is in sleeping 
mode and the machine does not operate. There are two stand-

by modes: “NO HEAT” and “ECO-

MODE

”. At “NO HEAT” there is no power to the heating elements and the boilers will (eventually) cool 

down to room-

temperature. At “ECO-MODE” the boilers will cool down to a lower set temperature and 

are then kept at that temperature (coffee boilers: 50°C, steam boiler: 70°C).
