OPEN

Make   sure   the   hopper   is   positioned
correctly on the appliance and fixed to
the casing with relevant pins.
Close   the   locking   slide   and   fill   the
hopper   with   coffee   beans.   Open   the
locking   slide   so   that   the   beans   are

SWITCHING THE APPLIANCE ON AND OFF

Vulcano Automatic

In order to power up the appliance, turn
the on-off switch knob to I. 
The appliance starts automatically every
12 portions of coffee (every 6 portions
in the version with shorter doser group).
It   switches   off   automatically   when   the
doser is filled with ground coffee. 
In   order   to   switch   the   appliance   on
manually,   the   switch   knob   must   be
turned all the way (to START). 
In   order   to   switch   off   the   appliance

manually, set the on-off switch knob to O.

Vulcano on Demand

In order to power up the appliance, set
the on-off knob to I. The display located
on the lid of the push button panel will
show   a   counter   with   the   incremental
number   of   doses   ground   by   the  appli-
ance.
