Operational features
MAIN switch
Notes!
The machine will re-start over and over again when the capacitive screen is touched during start-up.
Dirt and remnants of detergent may unexpectedly activate the capacitive screen. If the machine does
not start up properly, clean the surface of the capacitive screen with plain water and a soft cloth.
) is located at the right hand side of the machine and has 2 positions:
DOWN=OFF
Power to the controller is disconnected. When the machine is functioning correctly, all
heating is also off, whatever the position of the heat switches. With a malfunction it is
however possible that one (or more) heating elements/sections are still active.
UP=ON
The machine is connected to the electric mains, but power to the heating elements will
remain disconnected as long as the heat switches are still off. The machine functions
but the boilers will not heat. The optional cup-heater may function if it is turned on.

display.
HEAT switches
Heating power to the machine is split in three different circuits. Each circuit can be (dis-)connected
individually. The heating element of the steam boiler consists of a lower, middle and upper section.
Notes!
The boilers will not heat up when the HEAT switches are in the OFF position.
With the main switch in OFF position, the boilers should not heat up, irrespective of the position of the
HEAT switches. With a malfunction, heating may be ON even with the main switch in OFF position.
1. HEAT 1 powers the left group heating element and the lower section of the steam boiler heating
element.
2. HEAT 2 powers the central (Triplette) or right (Duette) group heating element and the middle
section of the steam boiler heating element.
3. HEAT 3 powers the right group heating element (Triplette only) and the upper section of the steam
boiler heating element.
Circuit breakers
The machine has an individual breaker for each of the four electrical circuits in the machine (main-
circuit plus 3 heat-circuits). When one of the circuits has a malfunction (electric short), the
corresponding breaker will cut power to that circuit only. If the main-circuit breaker is activated the
machine will be completely inoperable but if a single heat-circuit breaker is activated the rest of the
machine will remain functional.
The circuit breakers are located within the electrics tray and cannot be accessed by the barista. If a
circuit breaker is activated, have a technician check and repair the machine as soon as possible.
