5 – FIRST USE OR REUSE
Follow carefully the instructions before using the machine.
• open the external packing and take the machine out. Inspect the
machine to ascertain that it is intact and in good condition. Check
for the presence of all the accessories supplied with the machine
(see paragraph 4)
• position the machine on a flat surface
• remove the cover and take out the water tank (
2
) (located inside
the machine) and rinse it
• fill the container with clean water, return it to its housing and
insert the silicon tubes. Close the cover on the machine
WARNING ! Before making the electric connection,
make sure that the main power voltage corresponds
to the specifications indicated on the data plate placed
under the base of the machine.
5.1- VEROBAR MODEL VRS AND VRV
Press the main power switch (
1
); the pilot light (
14
) will be
switched on.
The automatic level indicator will start filling the boiler with water
until it automatically reaches the prescribed level; the boiler water
level is automatically checked and the prescribed level will be
automatically refilled.
Then wait until the machine reaches the 1.1 – 1.3 bar operating
pressure, by checking the boiler pressure on the pressure gauge
(
5
).
The machine with a basin built-in is provided with a safety device
controlling the amount of water contained in the basin itself; when
the water level reaches a capacity of approximately 0.5 litres, the
device automatically stops all the machine functions.
The red warning light (
15
), located on the user side of the panel,
switches on to indicate that the water is missing in the water tank.
As it is filled up, the warning light switches off and the machine is
ready again to deliver coffee.
To ensure proper operation of the safety device, avoid placing
cups or other items on the tank lid (
2
).
Fill the filter holder (
12
) with the brewing group (
39
)
Thanks to the working of the lever group (20) or thanks to the push
– button panel group (
11
), brew some water to avoid the correct
refilling of the coffee exchanger.
WARNING ! The coffee brewing and the power supply
of the heating element don’t work when the water
tank lamp (15) is on.
During start-up: when the boiler pressure gauge (
5
) shows a pres-
sure of approximately 0.5 bar, open slowly the steam tap handle
(
7
) by turning it anticlockwise, to discharge the air contained in the
boiler, and wait until steam starts flowing out of the steam supply
nozzle (
10
), then close it.
Wait for the reaching of the pressure and the correct thermic balan-
ce, after 10 – 15 minutes.
5.2 – PICCOLO BAR VRP MODEL
Switch on the machine setting the switch on/off (
1
) on the position
“I”. The lighting of the lamp (
14
) confirms the electric feeding.
Fill the filter holder (
12
) with the brewing group (
39
).
Put a tank under the water/steam jet (
24
).
Open the hot water/steam handle (
23
). Put the lever to supply hot
water (
21
) on the position “I”.
When the water comes out from the steam jet spout, put the switch
lever to supply hot water (
21
) on the position “O” and close the
handle(
23)
. These operations are useful to effect the right refilling
of the boiler.
e) Using the lever of the brewing group (
20
) make a water supply
to avoid the right refilling of the coffee circuit.
WARNING ! The coffee supply and the heating feeding
don’t work when the water tank lamp (15) is on.
The machine with a basin built-in is provided with a safety device
controlling the amount of water contained in the basin itself; when
the water level reaches a capacity of approximately 0.5 litres, the
device automatically stops all the machine functions.
The red warning light (
15
), located on the user side of the panel,
switches on to indicate that the water is missing in the water tank.
As it is filled up, the warning light switches off and the machine is
ready again to deliver coffee.
To ensure proper operation of the safety device, avoid placing
cups or other items on the tank lid (
2
).
f) After these operations wait for the reaching of the temperature to
brew a coffee, light (
17
) on.
N.B. : the warning light of the reaching of the right
temperature will continue to go out and to light up
automatically during the heating period.
After having lighted the machine, for the first coffee, wait for the
right thermic balance, after 8 – 10 minutes.
